elephant was put up in barn for the

walked through the side Of the barr
: as easily as a circus tumbler goes
through a paper covered hoop. and
proceeded on his way. Reaching q
small vineyard in the outskirts of the
town, he "walked in" and commenc-

keeper came up aud put stop to fur

were seen the next morning.
