THE DASLY EXAMINER, CHARLOTTETOWN, JULY 11, 1898
AN ELEPHANT'S CUNNING. By
This is agvetd-story of an elephamt’e intelligence. ‘The animal in question ‘was a mere: bale when he was sent by ‘an Indian prince to England as a pres- -ent for Queen \Victoria,
He was shipped asa deck passeteger ‘by one of the Indian mai! steamers from Bombay, and .a he had but attained the height of a.well grown calf and was miways most docile and tractable he was yermitted to bawe the run of the decks
tfor an hour or two every moraing wien
tthe state of the.weather permitted. By tthe sailors he was dubbed the ‘‘bos'm’s mnate,’’ owing to the penchant he had for carefully picking up every loose coil eaf rope that he could find and then tthrowing it over the side, being, 26 ack said, ‘‘as badsas a naval lieutenant or keeping the decks tidy. ”’
Among other acquaintances that be ‘farmed was that .cf the ship’s baker, whose address he seon discovered to be tthe place of origin of all the sweet dain- ities with which he was petted. Here he ‘took to making a:regular morning call ‘for something sweet for tiffin and was generally regaled with a stale tart or piece of caae, but upon calling one morning and extending his trunk, as usual, he found that bis visit was un- welcome, as something had occurred to irritate the baker, and instead of the cake &e received a blow on his trunk with the rolling pin.
The blow was not .eevere, but the ’* turned tail and went trumpet- ing up the deck, where Se tcok a post that would enable him to watch for his
**bos'n
assailant. Before long he saw the baker leave bis ‘‘shop,’’ and mischief being
his object rather than malice he prompt- ly marched down, and with several vig- orous sweeps of his trunk the swept all the shelves in the bakery clear, until loaves, tarta, cakes, patty pans and cake tins lay in confusion on the deck. This achieved, the bolted like any schoolboy and was locked up in disgrac ‘e, but up- on the circumstances being kmo«wn the popular verdict was in his favor, and he was allowed his liberty as before.
‘*Bos'n’’ marched down instanter to the baker, and never failed from that day to exact tribute, which was regularly paid, and from that time he and his op- ponent became fast friends.—Goldex Penny.

ETYMOLOGY OF “HURRAH.”
_—_ —
=". J. Spratley, to usethi plain E~ +- 'Zish:mame, has favored .usevith a copy fa iletter he has addressed tto The In- stitute and Lecturers’ Gazette on the etymology of the worl “‘Hurrah!’’ which Mr. Spratley spelis “‘Hoorah!’’ Wethave been vaguely chenishing the idea that it had a Russian origin, but Mr. ‘Ff pratley takes us to azoient Egypt
“there can be no doubt that the Egyptian soldiers went into battle torthe inspirit-
and.’ the average questioning man asks why, he staggers him with:this: ‘‘Be- cause HooRa (in the tongue of the Thothmes and Ramesses) means ‘The king, the king, the king!’ Yea, more. As
and:msan, the concentrated meaning of the ery would be, ‘For God, ‘king and country?’ What more loyal, what more patriotic, what more devyout?'’ What, indeed!
But Jest we should haply sti doubt, Mr. Spratley clinches the matter Sy cit- ing, in corroboration, the fact that his name, ‘ip Egypitian roots, is Sa-pa-Ra- ta-y, or Sa-pa-Hoo-Ra-ta-y, which means “‘Son of heaven, king of the two hemispheres,’’ and if the authority of a gentleman of this descent is not good enougk for the mere doubter, ewen Mr. convincing ®im. More than this, if Mr. Spratley’s Egyptian name means ay-
also signifies “* King of lower Egypt and. king of upper Egypt,”’ or ‘‘Emperar of the World.’’ But what we chiefly like it for is that it seems to settle an- other point that may well have bafiled the philologist—namely, the genesis of the once familiar refrain ‘‘Ta-ra-ra- boom-de-ay.’’ Is it possible that Miss Lottie Collins and the street urchin have been singing ancient Egyptian, as Mr. Jourdain spoke prose, without knowing it?—London Chronicle.
Speaker Reed‘« Autograph.
The Kennebec( Me.) Journal says that when antograph hunters ask Speaker Reed for his signature he writes it rather hastily, and it is simply T. B. Reed. If the pen does not mark plainly, the speaker does not always take pains to dip it anew, provided there is a scrawl and all the letters are visible.
Not so when the oblong forms of parchment are handed to him froin the committee on eurolled bills, of which Representative Hager of Iowa is chair mau. Mr. Hinds, the clerk to the speak- er’s desk, bands up the pile of parch- ment, and the speaker carefully look: over each. Taking them down one by) one, be writes his name slowly and care- fully. lt dces not appear as T. B. Reed, but as Thorras B, Reed.
The ink is dipped from a bottle that zits within a silver tray, which has come down from the time when Henry Clay was speaker of the house of repre- sentatives. Then the signature is care- fully blotted, the precious parchment is carried to the senate and eventually finds its way to the state de eaters nt, where it is stored among the archives.

SHEATHING | A ‘SHIP.
~>Ahts MHuilt ee “weet are :shesthed with copper, and so.are many tugboats. Merchant ships are sometimes sheathed with cgpper, but nowadays the material most commonly used is a composition metal which in appearance resembles | brass. Ut «does not wear so.long.es cop- per, ‘butiit costs less. The composition
metal comes in sheets about 8 feat by 1 foot 4 inches. They are fastened on the ship with mails of the same material. Sometimes the sheathing is nailed di- rectly on to the hull of the ship. Seme- | times it.ismailed over another sheathing | of felt, which helps to preserve the calking in the seams.
When the ship has been placed im a drydock or zaised out of wateron a floating dock, the old metal is stripped
off, and if she is to have a felt sheath- ing the bottom of the ship is first paint- ' ed with a coatof pitch, and the sheets | of felt are laid mpon that, and then the sheets of metal are nailed on over them. The work is dane very rapidly and at the same time with great nicety. Every ‘nail head is sunk so that itis flush | with the plate. If the hand were passed ' over the sheathing anywhere, it would
be found smooth. If the nail heads were ‘ permitted to project, they would of course interfere with the speed of the vessel.
Seventy-five men can sheathe an 1,800 ‘ton ship in two days. The cost of ' sheathing such a ship with composition metal over felt, ineluding material, dock charges, labor and everything, would be about $4,000, or a little less, and such a sheathing world last about two long voyages. —New York Sun.

Her Face on the Plates,
| A new industry, first put forward un-
der the patronage of Mrs. John Jacob Astor, has blossomed forth. This rich young woman, one of the most promi- nent and beautiful of New York’s fash- ionable matrons, has had her own face painted with most exquisite art om six very choice Sevres plates that are only used for her smallest and most select luncheon parties. The plates show Mrs. Astor in evening dress, tailor dress, re- ception gown, skating furs, in a delicate summer muslin and in her bridal gown.
