LADY CHELMSFORD'S THRILLING EXPERIENCE.
▲ NARROW ESCAPE.
An amazing adventure befell Lady Chelmsford, the Vicereine, reèeatly, near the Viceroy's shooting lodge at Dehra Dun. A particularly five elephant sup plied by the Forest Department for the Viceroy's shoot objected, an elephants sometimes will object, to the kindly at tentions paid him by Lady Chelmsford, By way of protest he lifted her Excellency off the ground with his trunk, with the intention presumably of depositing her, aa gently as might be, at a convenient distance where her attentions would be impossible, Some members of the shout- ing parts, becoming alarmed and fearing that the elephant had gone musth, decid- ed, not too wisely, to fire at the elephant. The animal promptly dropped Lady Chelmsford, fortunately without doing her the smallest harm, and made for his lash- out. The mahout raced for a tree and secured a safe hiding place. A bad be- ginning having been once made, how. ever, it was found necessary to make an end of the elephant.
The beast, which was a fine animal of full age, was valued at some seven thou- sand rupees (2700 nominal). The killing of fully tamed clephant is, for the sportsman, an almost unpardonable sin which only the most extreme need is held to justify Properly employed and tend- ed his usefulness may extend over nearly a hundred years..
Curiously enough" the same wook brought-from Talchar, a little native State of Bibar nnd Orissa, which is prob ably India's first big game province- the story of an exciting beat in which Sir Edward Gait, the Liont. Governor of that province, had about as near a thing" as even the best sportsman cares to have. Sir Edward Gait's party started with good luck. Four tiger cubs were caught in the morning by some of the beaters, but their mother had made good her escape. Just as the beat was ending an elephant was sent on ahead to search out the wounded tigress but it missed her. Sir Edward Gait and his party then took up the search. The Lieut-Governor was leading the party, and at one time was within about ten yards of the tigress without noticing her. Suddenly the beast with lightning speed charged Sir Edward. The rest of the party at once opened fire, and a steady shot from the Governor helped to drop the tiger within about two yards of him,
THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS OF GREAT BRITAIN.
A CHANGE OF PERSONNEL.
The Manchester Guardian remarks: It is said that many of our larger public schools are to increase their fees for boarders by 50 per cent. and, as a pretty natural consequence, that many parents whose sons have been nominated" will have to withdraw their claims for admis sion. This new move, if confirmed, will only consummate a change which has gradually been working itself out in the war. The sons of professional men will secede more and more from "their old strongholds, and those business men who had previously been content to send their Bons as day scholars to local secondary schools will make boarders of their boys. The parson's son, who has been the back- bone-of not a few public schools, will almost certainly be squeezed out unless scholarships as well as feen get a rise." Such a change of personnel is bound to alter the hitherto, rigid traditions of the old academies. That is not altogether a pity, since they have as much to take as to give in any educational reconstruc tion. Against them it may be urged that they suppress variation of the good n well as of the bad type, mould men "too much and let them grow too little, and encourage manners at the expense of mind, If the Battle of Waterloo was won' on the playing-fields of Eton, some of the battles of the Great War were lost in similar places. On the other hand what the public schools have done for their pupils is to give them a strict sense of honour and of honesty. The Adminis tration of the British Empire has rested mainly with old public school men, and that Empire has not been corrupt. Our justice over subject peoples may have been unreasonably stern, but it has never been bought and sold. Charges of brutality and pig-headedness may be re grettably often well founded; charges of peculation rarely if ever. And it is cor ruption that has broken most empires in honour and in fact. Accordingly, if the public schools begin to cater for a wider class than before, they have great things to band on. but they can also gain by i wider and more liberal outlook, by a widening of character as well as of carri qulum: The day-school boy is a different typo, often but not always more inde pendent, versatile, and creative. He comen very often from a different type of home and is trained for a different type of life. If the chances of economic fortune take him to the new environment, he can be relied on to contribute as much as ha receives.
A story has recently been told in a London paper of a city gentleman who was invited down to the country for a day among the birds" Whatever his powers in finance, his aliooting was not remarkable for its accuracy, to the great disgust of the gamekeepen in attendance, whose tip, by the way, was generally re gulated by the size of the bag. Doar mol" at last exclaimed the sportsman, "but the birds seem exceptionally strong en the wing this year. Not all of 'em sir," said the gamekeeper, You've shot at the same bird about a dozen times. E's a follerin' you about, sir." Fol- Nonsense, Why lowing me about! ahould bird do that!" Well, sir, 1 dunno, I'm sure, unless ́ ́e's" "angin' round for safety,
