After all the magna lea were Beaded, the reporters were admitted — there were fourteen of them and were taken to a bog table which was not set tor A dinner, though admirably adapted for writing purposes. Tbe Waiters trooped in with the viands but ignored the reporters, wbo bore the slight tmtii the courses bad been served ; then, by mutnsl agreement, they arose and tramped silently out of the banquet hall in Indian toe. Horace Greeley, Man ton Marble, Jones, of the Timn ; Brady,' ot tbe MmO ; and Brooks of tbe KiprtM, raw the departure. |fr. Greeley laughed and said: " The boys are serving 'em just right" The guest of the evening looked on in dismay ; be was primed with a long speech that he wanted well reported. After an abaenoe of two boon the reporters returned from the barroom of the hotel where they had whiled away (he time in aa mpling ice- water, and perifepa something stronger. No sooner had they got back to their table than waiters ware seat to them with wine and cigars. Both were indignantrejected. " We are here to work, not to drink and smoke," aaid the fourteen in chorus The Chairman of the Committee of Arrangements came to apologise ; he was in grim silence. He raid a special dinner should he provided. " We are here for work ml eat to dinner," answered tbe fourteen. To work apparently they went ; pencils flew over paper ; the speakers glanced nervously at the writers ; they seemed to eospect their diligence, perhaps Ihey thought it wu not deserved at an. Next morning confirmed their suspicious Tbe Trtb one had no reference whatever to the dinner ; the HeroU had twenty lines ; tbe World apologized that the Low dinner was crowded out ; in the TYeue there was a stickful dictated by tbe editor, wbo smelt moose and hurried to the office from the dinner to find not a line of it, jort as be ex - parted.

WICKED ELEPHANTS. ! toaroKsrgsnry aad Only j "Look oat, We man, he's gwine to paw jar.!" The male elephant " Bp " was being put through bis daily instructions at Forepaugh's quartos, Lehigh avenue and K&gemool street, Philadelphia, whec Epfa. Thompson, colored keeper, cried oat to George Smith. . a white men, wbo wee starting in the l*fi- t ous task of teaching the huge animal to welu. , A Minding snow storm without, end e cold ' dreary atmosphere within, bad evidently 1 affected Tip's temper, which ia none of ' the kindest, even under the most favorable j cireum stances. Tbe warning came too late. With a peculiar cry ot rage, the elephant lifted his trunk and lumbered forward tow- j ard the starts nt, who sought to flee, but before be could move a dozen steps Tip bad pressed Mm against a wooden post, and by sheer weight fractured Ma shoulder j blade. In au instant the colored keeper had seired an iron goad, and began prodding tbe enraged animal in the tenderest part of the flank, which gave Smith an opportunity ' to crawl away ou his hands and knees, out 1 of reach of the enormoot foot lifted reedy to * " It was jes' nip and tuck with him. 1 can tdl yon whyt," said the ker|>er last night, while relating the incident to a /'reel reporter, "if 'them air five toes kem down on George, good-bye, Liza Jane. Yes, sirree, when an elephant gels his mad up its time to take a walk. Bome of 'em are good natured enough, but 'mos all gets 'ornary* once in a while " Tip baa got a poa-erful , I bad temper, 'cause lie's new ; never been j | broken ret, and it's a dangerous job to 1am j ; U1 old elephant new tricks," Fitted by long experience and thoroughly j familiar with all tho moods of the captive ( brutes, abOec uualcldly proportion* are tbe main attractions of every menagerie, the keeper waa wcii qualified to give e practical , eermom on the elephant, whose intelligence aud docility has ever been looked upon as ! srnooytnont. Tj» stalwart attendant admit- ( j ted tint his charges were wise even to rea- - eon, but the pleadng illusion that the elephant ia as tractable as the horse or the dog. aud as easstj controlled by kiod words, be Tndely shattered, and demonstrated instead that a more wily and wicked animal is never exhibited beneath a circus tent Fear alone prevents tbe slow-moving and clumsily-built animal from breaking his bands and creating havoc and destruction. " There's twenty one -elephants here," continued Epb, "eleven females and ten males, out of the whole lot there may be two or perhaps three, with good dispositions. The rest can't be trusted for on inslant. This elephant 'Tip,' wMch nearly came being the death of young Smith, will allow nobody to approach him but Adam Forepaugh, Jr., and myself. He is always watching for a change to get a smack at somebody with that trunk of his, and God help them ir they ever fall near Ms feeL Tip would trample them to death ia leas ■ time than a cat could lick ber bind leg Mr. Forepaugh can do anything with that elephant, bnt a stranger, even one of tbe circus men, couldn't get within a foot without being killed." "Talk abont training an elephant with kind words," continued Thompson, tmoonciouidv verifying the story of Dick in Chart w K-ade's Sack of -all-Trad ea, " why that's all l*iah. The kindest treatment I be- 1 ieve in, is a good idiarpqxnnted goad, and 1 a steel lai'i > 1 t ip EhphsnU are too out* to stood petting l'.| je* like to sec anybody try kind word. •> iJ"ip. or Bolivar there.

YVhiie we wore in .i -i.Umgton, during the season uf lb 711, an nmlor keejier tried that racket on T«W, a female elephant. She caught tbe fellow around the waist when bo wasn't look-- " ing. and threw him tan feet in tbe air. He went to the baspiud with a pair of broken anus and i. twisted neck. When we went into winter quarters last year. Bolivar thought he saw a good chanoe, and aimed a terrible blow at me with Ms trunk, and then chased mo up Edgeinoat street. Catch me ? Well, if he had, I wouldn't be talking you now." " Rocks is another bod one. He's got as 1 ouch sense as a man, and can sling his trunk around like a prize-fighter does his fists. Borneo and Mongo, females— I dunno bow they came to call her Borneo— are aiflther pair, although they've been in the show business for years. Basso and Jennie are about the otfly elephants in the herd that don't show any temper, but there's do knowing when they'll get mad and raise old Harry. " Y'ou sec the trouble with Tip Just now is that he is unbroken' and we're teaching < h„„ la danoa to waKa ansae. He knows what we want him to do, bat tbe oonssrned brute is stubborn, and has to be licked tdl he does iL I believe they understand every word. After a trick is once homed it is never forgotten, and if the animal is giTec the cue ten years afterward, he'll go through the performance without a hitch." The ffid school-book story ot the elephant and tha tailor was then related for Ep^s benefit, hat he smiled increduioaslv. "If that -sir tailor stuck a needle 'in the trunk of Bdrear," said he, " the whole shop j would be tore out, tailor, goose, needles «nd • all. No squirtin' of duty water tor Tip or Bolivar. Not much. There would be a riot right there and then." i "No, indeed," chimed in Dan Taylor a | vitrtsrt ilinsji wi <■>!■! I - cou bet your life that a stranger couldn't go fooling around that alephant boose very much. As long as I've bean in the busing* it would take a good deal to make me get near any of thorn. IWey have a way o stepping ou people that I dou't liks." • When au elephant gets mad," resumed Kph. " be don't wait iouK to show it, but . begins to make things lively right away. ' The keapev is attacked sometimes, bat not ao often as a stranger, because the animal is wise enough to know that hell catch it pretty strong.
