JIANY SHOTS FIRED. L. Six Thousand Ivullets Are Said to Ha^e Penetrated Hide of Big Keast, ? i _ i | The Alette. i Patrick, March 12.?The big female elephant killed near here yesterday | on Big Juniper creek escaped fror.i a wagon oiicus which was booked fo" Pairic- v i.c.-iday. A crowd had assembled here for the performance and wonder was expressed at tlie r.cn appearance of the ci:cus, when; k news was received that the elephant. I u&d broken honnds and was at large. ^ The animal created great excitement. . : | .Many of the amazed citizens nad never before seen an elephant. The possee that took up . lie beast's trail grew until it was said that fully " 00 men were joining in the chase. One man says thai he fired o shots from a magazine pistol into the ani-; ma!. Men who were in at the death! say thai not less than .000 shots were fired during the hunt. The elephant became unruly and broke away from its keeper as the circus was proceed- ; ins: from MeBee to Patrick. A repr-rt from the camp of the cir- | cus today says that several o:her ani-, mals are threatening to make their! escape and some of the lions and tig-! ers may gain their liberty. The citi-! zens of the community are on guard and if a successful break for libertyis made by the other animals the fare of the elephant will be visited on them. Death of Elephant is Blow to Circus. Kartsville, March 12.?The large . elephant killed eight miles from j * Hartsville last night belonged to a: small circus, which exhibited at Mc-' Bee a day or so ago. The owner came j. to Hartsville this morning. He did Inot understand how the trainer allowed th? heast to escape, the value of ft which was $6,000. There is general 1 regret over the slaughter, however. This was due to the great excitement among the people of the neighborhood over the appearance of the jungle j inhabitant. The elephant was tame, j < but was worked into a frenzy by the j excited followers who waged baule ! against it. It is understood that the show car- ; ried only one elephant so of course , the loss is an unusually heavy one. j wr- x - ? ? "AIaowa/? Tlinra , i ne mystery is ticaicu. iutu, . was no train wreck. Exciting rumors ! are -.float today and talk of elephan-; tine size is heard on all sides such as j offering solutions as to "What I would ihave done, had i been there." <* SIGXS RAILWAY BILL. * " j sh President Wilson Extends Hand ofbt Helpfulness and Brotherhood to la Alaska.
