And he had thirty sons, and thirty daughters, whom he sent abroad, and took in thirty daughters from abroad for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years. Then died Ibzan, and was buried at Bethlehem. And after him Elon, a Zebulonite, judged Israel; and he judged Israel ten years. And Elon the Zebulonite died, and was buried in Aijalon in the country of Zebulun.
Judah slung a stone against the head of the first of them that approached him, with such force that he dropped his shield, which Judah snatched from the ground and used to defend himself against his eight assailants. His brother Levi came and stood next to him, and shot off an arrow that killed Elon, king of Gaash, and then Judah killed the eight men.
"He is a Wall Street broker, and is also my partner in a ranch down in Texas." Both the Elon girls expressed their amazement at his fighting qualities. "Oh, that's nothing," said Evelyn. "He hasn't been whipped since he was fifteen years old. I knew that that big fellow would be severely punished if he struck brother. Now, if he had struck Mr.
"Oh, I'll take the chances of it," laughed Terry. The other passenger also handed his roll of bills to Miss Elon, and, looking at Terry, said: "Now, go ahead."

All sailors object to passengers shooting at Mother Carey's chickens, as they call the seagull, but the average passenger has no such superstition. "It's a pity," said Josie Elon, "to kill such beautiful birds. How white and clean they seem to be, and what beautiful white wings they have. Every feather seems to have been made of snow."
Miss Elon laughed heartily at the story, and said: "Well, I don't blame her, for a girl thinks at such a time as that she looks as ugly as she feels, even if she don't.

"But, Monty, I know what I'm talking about. At least let me tell you something about this stock," pleaded Elon, loyally, despite the wound.
When they reached his residence they found that it was one of the finest and most beautiful homes in the city, and that everything about it told of great wealth. The next day Fred and Terry accompanied Mr. Elon downtown to visit certain friends, and the Creole gentleman soon learned that his guests had many other friends there, too.
Evelyn and the two Creole girls, whose name was Elon, remained on deck longer than any of the lady passengers on board. By and by Evelyn and the younger of the two Elon sisters retired to their rooms. The elder one laughed and said to Fred: "Mr. Fearnot, we two seem to be on quite good terms with the old man of the sea." "Yes," returned Fred.
That evening, as Evelyn and the elder Elon girl were standing out on the forward deck, gazing at the stars, Terry came up and joined them. "Mr. Olcott," said the New Orleans beauty, "you are just the kind of a man that I have been looking for for three or four years. Please tell me how I can induce you to come courting." "Too late," laughed Terry, "I'm already mortgaged." "Oh, my! Just my luck."
