The Stronff Attachment of tm Elephant for Sutler Nothing i3 inoro eurious una interesting among the many strango thiug'i to bo noted in and about a menagerie," sunt tho veteran manager James M. Nixoa to a New York Sun reporter, "than tho devoted affection that elephants frequently demon struto for dog9.

Tho big pachyderm form no other attachments bo strong and enduring, and tho dogs seem to reciprocate tho foaling. "Ouo of tho host illustrations that I ever saw was tho Ioyo between Boss and Rubo. Bos3 was a fomalo elephant that wo had in tho Earnum show in 1873-1, and llubo was a setter dog. Boss was novcr easy when llube was out of her sight, llor lecon littlo eyes would follow his every movement if ho was frisking about, and if lie disappeared she would utter a littlo scream that would bring him gallantly back to her in a hurry. She never scorned so happy ay when ho was lying asleep on tho hay in front of her, with her big trunk waving over him.

Ona time Rubo got sick. Sho took tho bentearoof him that she know how in her ekphantino way. Bho made a buneh of hay about a foot thick and largo enough for him to lio soiled upon and in some way made him understand that he should lio down upon it. Then she deftly worked her big trunk around under tho bunch of hay so n3 to take it up, with him on it, as a woman takes up a sick baby on a pillow, and thero alio held hira and gently swung him to and fro all night long, rocking and lulling him to sleep. In the morning he was well again, and Bess appeared as happy as a mother who had nursed her child through a spell of illness.

While we were showing in Boston I happened tc mention to a group of reporters one day tho strong affection Bess showed for Rubo. They evidently considered it a 'circus fairy and were not delicate in saying so. Very I said, 4 if any of you doubt it, just get Rube away from Bess a littlo distance and hurt him slightly, enough to mako him J. hadn't any idea that they'd do it, and I didn't stop to think of whero Boss might be, and whether sho was chained or not. Tho fact was that sho was at the time going through a rehearsal in tho ring, loose, and Rubo was sitting up on a folded carpet some way off.

Tho reporters loft me and strolled out into the canvas. Pretty soon they edged around to where Rubo was, and one of them gave his tail a twist, which the dog instantly remarked loudly. Bess, at the sound of his yelp, wheeled around into the ring, threw up her trunk with a shrill ecream of rage, and started out for those reporters. They flow. Thero was no time for explanation, argument or diguiiled leisure.

Tho forty or fifty employes who were standing about ran too. Bess stopped at Rube, and when sho saw that he wasn't seriously hurt sho calmod right down, walkod back to the ring and went on with the rehearsal. "When we were going to Lowell from Boston, Rube, who had a sore foot, was put in one of baggage wagons and sent on ahead. When they came to start tho elephants for tho march Bess missed her pet and broke out in open rebellion. Sho stood and trumpeted for him, snorted, and tramped around in excitement, and would not be driven.

Tho other elephants began to share her excitement, and a man had to be sent on a swift horse after Rubo. The wagon he was on came back. Tho doors were thrown open so that Bess could see him. She went up to him, touched him gently all over with her trunk, blinked at him, made a succession of souuds that sounded like the blowing off of steam from tho exhaust pi of a boilor, and then joggod along behind him contentedly all tho way, tho doors of the wagon being kept open." Tho Travels of a Cheek. Some weeks ago a prominent real estate dealer in Los Angeles handed a gentleman a check for in a deal.

The recipient of it having some little obligations outstanding as the result of too much boom quietly indorsed it and handed it to a creditor, and thus it started on its mission of charity, love and business. In due course of time it turned up in the hands of the original drawer of it, with no less than fifteen indorsementson the back. It had paid $37,500 in tfebts, made fifteen men happy and returned to its drawer. to Students.

This is done in order to make an estimate of the amount to be asked from the Legislature by the Board of regents for repairing the foundation of the main building. The south wing was "fixed last year. It is quite a difficult job to undermine the walls, and to put in a new foundation. The foundation is settling which threatens the safety of the building. Doubtless such engineers as the K.

S. U. "sends out" would not have made such a blunder as the one made, when the massive structure was erected on a foundation not "built upon the rock." Take the Times..
