THE TIMES, i NEW BLOOMFIELT), PA APRIL- 24, i 1877.!
Elephant Borson's Rage.
Uilmore's Garden K. Y., was in on up
roar on the morning of the 10th Inst., and
a curious tlironu; gathered lu the streets
near by. A bg elephant named Borson,
which anlved from Liverpool on Saturday
for Dnrvmm's menagerie, was assigned to a
iilnco where tin ee other elephants were
chained ; and, being unilccnRtoined to stand
other wine than ulone, i he became very
belligerent. He Walked In front of his
I'ompanions as far a8 liia chain would per
mit, struck them on their heads with his
ttunk, and seemed determined that they
should acknowledge his superiority. Al
ways wheu several elephants ate together
one masters the rest, before peace, is
established. Mr. Hale, the keeper of
Uursen, gave him blows with a stout stick,
nud aided by several other men, watched
the beasts throughout the night. liorsen
entertained a consequent grudge against
his keeper, and as the latter, about seven
in the morning, was giving him water, hit
him a blow with his trunk on the side that
knocked him twenty feet away. Hale ran
it Borsen with his stick, but was seized
and thrown over the railing. On roturning
to the charge, he was again seized, and
Ahis time the beast was on the point of
lounging his tusks Into him, when Mr.
Charles McLain, the boss cauvassman,
ywent to his rescue and dragged him out of
-teach. Borsen then became furious. He
itroke his chain, and started through the
premises with his trunk elevated and his
.tail standing stiffly in a horizontal position,
die tore down the wooden railing as if it
were a thread, and went to the lions' cage,
ovhich he knocked over. There was then
at pandemonium of roars from all the
beasts, including the seals and sea lions.
Over twenty fled, but soon rallied)!, and
under the leadership of Messrs McLain
and McDonald, prodded the elephant with
i toh forks and tore his ears with hooks
-until he was secured. This was done by
first lassoing one of his legs as be stepped,
and then twining the rope around his
other legs, which caused him to fall
(heavily. Then, being helpless, his fore
aud hind legs and his tusks were chained.
In this condition, after tremendous beat
ings, he was allowed: to rise, and was led
to one of his posts of the garden, to which
he was attached. His ears were badly
lacerated, and blood streamed from wounds
on his sides and belly.
An elephant, after being conquered,
rarely, attemps a second rebellion, and
liorsen was quiet last evening, obeying
the commands of the attendants. It took
six hours to subdue him,- and - men were
afterward occupied for hours washing
way the constant flow of blood. Mr.
Hale was badly, but not dangerously hurt.
Charles Rivers had a very narrow escape,
for the elephant at one time held htm with
his trunk, and was on the point of driving
his tusks into him when a violent blow of
a club caused the trunk to loosen. Borsen
is now so well chained that bo caunot
break loose.
KNOWLEDGE IS POWER.
This is a natiou of enlightened freeman.
Education is the corner-stone and founda
tion of our government. The people are
free to think and act for themselves, and
that they may act wisely it is necessary
that they be well informed. Every iudi
vidual gain increases public gain. Upon
the health of the people is based the pros
perity of a nation, by it every value is in
creased, every joy enhanced. Health is es
sential to the accomplishment of every
purpose ; while sickness thwarts the best
intentions and loftiest aims. Uuto us are
com mitted important health trusts, which
we bold not merely in our own behalf but
for the benefit of others. In order that
we may be able to discharge the obligation
of our trusteeship and thus prove worthy
of our generous commission, it is ueoessary
that we study the art of preserving health
and prolonging life. It is of paramount
importance to every person not only to
understand the means for the preservation
of health, but also to know what remedies
should be employed for the alleviation of
the common ailments of life. Not that we
would advise evety man undor all circum
stances to attempt to be his own physician,
hut we entreat him to acquire sufficient
knowledge of his system and tho laws
that govern it, that he may bo prepared to
take care of himself properly, and thereby
prevent sickness and prolong life. Iu no
text book will the people find the subjects
of physiology aud hygiene, or the science
of life and the art of preserving health,
more scientifically discussed or more plainly
taught than in "The People's Common
Sense Medical Adviser," by H. V. Pierce,
M. D., of Bufl'alo, N. V. It is a volume
of over nine hundred large pages, illustrat
ed by over two hundred and eighty-two
engravings aud colored plates, is elegantly
hound in cloth and gilt, and is sent, post
paid, to any address by the author at the
low price one dollar aud fifty oeuts a copy.
Nearly one huudred thousand copies have
already been sold, and tho present edition,
which is revised and enlarged and more
especially adapted to the wants of the
family, is selling very rapidly. It treats of
all the common diseases and their remedies,
as well as of anatomy, physiology, hygiene,
human temperament,, and many other
topics of great interest to all people, and is
truly what its author styles it, "Medicine
Simplified."
Mrs. Morrison's Elopement.
James Morrison's wife of Albany, N. Y.,
eloped a year ago, aud he went to live
with her wealthy mother. Last week the
truant wife, witbher child and paramour,
returned to Cohoes destitute, and applied
to her mother for relief. The mother re
fused to have anything to do with her
unless she would return to her lawful
liusbaud. This she would not do. On the
contrary, she desired to have tho husband
ejected. Ilerdosire not being accorded,
herself, lover, and childare now destitute
in that city.
