Elephants Show Quiet Rivalry And Philosopher’s Lesson
The Duc de Montpensier notes Burmese elephants resolve mate conflicts without slaughter. Two males display strength with branch tests until one yields, then the victor mating with the female. A lighthearted tale about animal intellect contrasts with human thrill of hunting. Charlotte’s drawing room tale pivots to a kitten’s growth. Reymann Brewing in Wheeling completes a million-dollar plant upgrade and shifts to packing, forming Paul Reymann Company with $200,000 capital as other breweries sell off.
