The\nGreek and Roman bib to riant wrote o'\nelephants there, and a little before\nthe Christian era as many as a'hundred of them were often exhibited at\none time in the Roman circus. There\nis proof, however, that these animals were ot the African variety.\nThe elephant head stamped on man\/\nmedala and coins Invariably had tbe\nlarge ears and cranial peculiarities\nwhich so plainly differentiate the African from the Asian species. Many\npetroglypha and pictures on the rock\nwalls of the Atlas Mountaina strikingly depicted the characteristics ot\nthe African animal. The Wild herd-\neiB of the Atlas Mountains drew their\nelephant as they saw him, and it was\nstrikingly a picture of the Aft lean\nvariety of today as the rock drawings of the Bushmen which so Xnlth-\nlully outlined the animals of the Kalahari Detert. *\nThe elephant no longer exists ln\nNorth Africa because he has been\nexterminated by man. Two factors\ncontrol tue dlatributlon of the elephants in Africa and the size of their\nheids. One is the abundance or the\nscarcity of the plants on which they\nlive; the other ls tho presence or absence of man. The whites want the\nelephant for his ivory, and the blacks\nfor his flesh, lhe elephant seeks new\nstamping grounds lf either the whites\nor the blacks become uncomfortably\nnumerous.\nThe result ls that from great regions where he waa once very nu-\nmeioua Ue baa now entirely disappeared. He has been bunted for hia\nivory In the basin of the Nile till ho\nlias totally disappeared from large\nparts of It. He has vanished froin\nnearly the whole of German East Africa. He is still found In considerable numbers in British East Africa,\nand approaches the coast near tlie\nmouth of the Tana River, for this region la sparsely people and hunters\nseldom visit it. A century ago he\nwas often seen near the mouth of the\nCongo, but there are few parts of tha\nAfrican coast which he now approaches within scares of miles. The\narea around Victoria Nymza are\namongst the moat favore.l haunta of\nthe elephants, but today there are\nfewer herds and they are smaller. He\nonce ranged over the whole of South\nAfrica wherever plant food could be\nfound, but he has now disappeared\nfrom thia great region almoat to the\nZambesi Rivfer, and the only reason\nla the advancement of white enterprises and the multiplication of his\nhuman enemies. He still Uvea in\ngreat numbers in the vast foreat re-\nglona of Weat Africa, the eastern part\nof the Belgian aud French Congoes,\nand in other great inland territories\nwith meagre population; but railroads and white stations are pushing into some of his greatest strongholds, and he will be exterminated\nor driven out. Judging from present\nprogress in Africa, it will not be\nvery long before he will be unable to\nfind unappropriated areas to which\nlie can still retreat.\nAll the blacks now know the value\nof Ivory. They can buy with it the\ngood things the white man has to\nsell and enjoy besides the usual\nquantity meat. This new Incentive\nto destroy the animal is giving keener zest to the chase. The colonial\ngovernments have established a number of reservations within which the\nelephant can feed and breed in safety; but they are also building railroads and planting stations in sonrs\nof these reserves, and the elephant\nwill not remain in the neighborhood\nof such Intrusions. Meanwhile the efforts to tame hlm and make him the\nhelper of man are being continued,\nand there Is' some encouragement to\nperserve.\nStrange aa it may seem, thia heavy\nand unwieldy animal is a good mountain climber. He haa been found in\nundisturbed possessions of feeding\ngrounds at heights of 8200 feet in\nAbyssinia, anl according to Gregory-\nabove the tree line, at about 14,000\nfeet, on Kilimanjaro; and a number\nof other African, mountaineers havo\nreported him at heights of 10,000 feet\nor moro. If the African elephant la\ndoomed to dwindle and disappear, we\nmay imagine that the last of hla race\nwill be found high un among the\nmountains., where, many of. them\nbrowse today at altitudes Beldom visited by hunters.\nend refreshing.

This cup was donated\nby the Royal Agricultural and Industrial Association to the winner of a\ngame between Coquitlam and the\nSenior Amateurs, which the latter\nwon by three goals to two. Mr. Ryall\nsigned, owing to the 'Infirmities of\nage and impaired eyesight, he was\nactively engaged in political flghting,\nprincipally ln the cause of Home\nRule.\nFrom Liberal to Unionist\nIt was Oilstone's enthusiasm an'l\nHhe president of the cjjib, will make advocacy of tbis much-discussed\nthe presentation and hand the. mug\nover to its custodian for the year.\nWith regard to the future of the\ncup, tbe Senior' Amateurs have consented to let it be offered for competition in tbe City league games of\nnext season, namely 1911,1912, a fact\nwhich should prove encouraging to\nthe teams playing In this league.\nThe silverware Itself will be on exhibition shortly at Mr. Ryall's offlce.\nNo CMy League game will be\nplayed next Saturday, but tbe Senior\nAmateurs are scheduled to play tbe\nV.A.C. on that day on the * home\nground. Thl* match should prove a\ngreat attraction to the football' enthusiasts of the city, as a good game\nis almost certain to result from the\nmeeting. When New Westminster\nwent over to .Vancouver, tbe V.A.C.\nbeat them by three goals to nil, but\nthis score does not give a line on\nthe coming match, as the local men\nwere handicapped on that occasion,\nan.i now they are out to get theli\nown back. The fact that they are\nplaying at home should also help,\nespecially If they get the support\nthey deserve on the touch line from\ntheir local supporters.\nThe Thistles have now ousted the\nCeltics from their position as leaders\nln the Senior League. This is the\nresult of the former having defeated\nthe Hibernians by three goals to two\non Christmas Day. Westminster\nstands fourth In the league with Hibernians at the bottom\nmeasure for the Emerald Isle which\nled to the split between himself and\nMr. Joseph Chamberlain in 1886, tbe\nyear when the sbortest-llved parliament of modern times ended, Gladstone coming into power in November\n1885, and going out ln March the following year. Mr. Chamberlain was\nthen president of the Local Government Board. He refused to follow\nMr. Gladstone on the Home Rule\nquestion and, together with Sir\nGeorge Trevelyan, quitted office. It\nwas over nine years before Mr.\nChamberlain became a cabinet minister again.\nIt was later in the same year, December, 1886, that Lord 'Randolph\nChurchill, who ln August had become\nchancellor of the exchequer and leader of the House of Commons, advocated a policy of stringent retrenchment, ! and consequently fell foul of\nLord Salisbury. He reslgne.l, resolving, to quote his own words, \"to sacrifice himself on the altar of thrift\nand economy.\"\nThs 8tormy Petrel.\nLord Randolph's method of announcing his resignation was rather\npeculiar. He merely called on the\neditor of the Times, told him he had\nresigned, and the next day the Thunderer was able to claim a huge seoo;>,\nInasmuch as they had the announcement of Lord RanJoIph's resignation\nall to themselves. Although on most\nother points he spoke and voted\nsteadily for the Conservative side,\nLord Randolph was a veritable\ni \"stormy petrel\" when lt eame to tho\nConsidering the condition\nground, lt was a good game in whicb ,\nthe Ravers defeated the Celtics on '\nChristmas Day ln an exhibition matcn\nby three goals to none. Tbe locals |\nput up a good class game, but the\nsnow did not help them any in theli\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdefforts to play.\n| question of voting supplies,\nof the] It is said, of course, that the resig\nMusic and Drsms,\nThe advance sale of tickets for\n\"Polly of the Circus\" has proven that\nNew Westminster people appreciate\ntbe efforts of the new management\nof the Opera House to provide a good\nshow In a comfortable house. Those\nwho remember the Westminster\nOpera House In the old days will be\nsurprised when they step into the\nremodelled playhouse and among the\npleasing and comfortable surroundings witness a first class production\nsuch as \"Polly of tbe Circus.\" All\nsit,ns point to a capacity house for\nThursday night when his worship\nMayor l.ee wlll officially open what\nwill really be a new and a fully\nmo.lern playhouse.\nOf the opening show, \"Polly of the\nCircus,\" It Is sufficient to say that it\nls one of Frederic Thompson's best\nproductions, equalling that great success \"Brewster's Millions.\" Por\nsolid year it was played at the Liberty Theatre. New York City, and on\nIts tour through the west has played\neverywhere to crowded houses. It is\na play that appeals to old and young\nof all tastes and Inclinations, for in\nIts delineation of human life and character It touches a responsive chord In\n\ufffd\ufffdvery breast. Ida St. Leon as Polly,\nputs life and thrill into every act and\n-scene and captures every heart. The\nfamous St. Leon family will all be\nthere Including Elsie, the youngest\nbareback rider in the world. .. In\nthe company there is a score of well-\nknown actors, a number of circus\nacts that contribute not a little to the\nsuccess of the play. The big \"sawdust scene\" represents a three-ring\ncircus in actual operation, one of th 3\nmost realistic pictures ever shown on\nthe stage of a theatre. The third\nact shows the circus leaving the\n\"lots\" after the night's performance,\nwhile ln the foreground stands Polly\nand her lover watching the wagons\ndisappearing across the hills; one ol\nthe best mechanical effects that has\never been produced.\nnation of Mr. Balfour bas been forced, to a large extent, by the attitude\nof the \"Die-Hards,\" who refused to\nfollow his leadership with regard to\nthe parliament bill, and preferred to\nrange themselves under the banner\nof Lord Halsbury and Mr. Austen\nChamberlain.\nIn a sense this episode provides\nanother illustration of political history, repeating Itself, for when Peel,\nthe Conservative leader, advocated\nthe repeal of the Corn Laws, in 1846,\nand told his ministerial colleagues\nthat their repeal was inevitable, some\nof them refused to go along with him\nand consequently be resigned. Lord\nStanley, afterwards the Earl of Derby, with Lord George Bentinck^Dis-:\nraeli, and others, formel a \"No'Sur-\nrender\" Tory party. However, the\nmeasure for the repeal was carried\nand Peel triumped.\nBright Was a Man of Peace.\nMr. Gladstone, by tbe way, not only\ncaused Mr. Joseph Chamberlain to\nleave the Liberal party, but his Egyptian pollcy in 1882, which lea to the\nbombardment of Alexandria, caused\nthe resignation of Mr. John Bright,\n( who waa then chancellor of the Duchy\n. ara:le through the streets of the\nlown. Mr. Prentice, who is also secretary of the Central Park Progressive Association, stated that his band\nwas always ready to play at any charitable function, and hoped to have\nother opportunities of being beard in\nNew Westminster, with which he1\nthinks the growth of South Vancouver ls closely linked, as it ls wltb\nVancouver;\nSWAYING POLITICAL PENDULUM.\nStories of Glsdstone.
