Three Hours Combat with an Elephant.

Mr.. Hyatt Frost, Of Van Amburgh's
Menagerie, gave US yesterday the parlic-
uJars of a terrible fgh, with Tippoo Sa-
hib. the well.known elephant. which oc'
cured a. Connersvile Indiana, last Tues
d,y. The mensgerie had gone into win
ter Quarters a, that place. snd the animal
is chained in small building. TiPpoo
Sshib is now the largest elephan, in
America. He is So years old and weighs
10000 pounds. The ballle resulted from
a change Of keepers. The elephant was
in a particular bad humor with all man
kind. He would allow nobody in his
quarters. striking at every intruder vi
ciously. On Tuesday morning las. the
combat opened. The new keeper, with
nine assistants, hid equipped himself win
chains and cables for tying, and spears
and pilchforks for subduing TiPPoo' ne
frs, thing was to [sslen brlckbsI al Inc
end of a rope, fastened TO one leg and one
tusk. By means of this rope. twenty
ton cable chain was slip-noosed around
the tusk. Next, an excavation three feet
do0o w,s made under the sill OF The house
and while the elephants attention was
a,r,.cled 10 the other side Of the room by
nsl of water poured into his trough,
the cable chain was passed through the
excavation and fastened 10 heavy stakes
outside. All this time the elephsn, struck
sll around him with feroci,y, and tugged
at his chain. The mex, thing accomplish.
ed was The sharing Of his hind leg'. This
was consumated by the Singing of fresh
ropes around those two stately-plllars, and
finally. by strategy, these ropes were fss-
tened 10 slumps outside.
The elephant was now sufficiently pin
toned TO allow the order "chsrge pitch
forks" to be gwen. Ten men plunged
Them into the rsmpsging beast; The
tenderest spot in an elephant is just be-
hind the forelegs, and that locality was
probed numerically. By means Of a
hooked spear sunk in his back Tippoo
was brought 10 his knees, but he surged
up again with such strength that he swept
his ,orheniors off their feet, and made his
chains whistle like fiddle-slrings. After
an hours fighting, he was brought down
% his side, but for Two hours longer he
rugged at his chain with frenz!ed obstina-
cy. He pulled so hard at times that his
hind legs were straight out behind bin,
and three feet of the ground. Atlhe end
of the three hours The giant gave in by
runPeting, which is the elephants way
of crying enough. The moment this pc
culsr cry was heard the battle ceased.
The keeper made Tippoo get up and lie
down number Of times. and he was as
obedlent 10 the word Of ommand as
gentle pony. The animal was then
groomej and rubbed off with whiskey.
He allowed all manner Of liberties with
out SO much as tapping an ear. He was
subjugsled elephant. At one stage OF
The hgh, the dog Jack IA companion OF
the elephan0 thought some Of the tying
business foul play. He flew upon John
sons back was pulled off and dragged out
Of the room. Jack evidently syWpathz-
cd with his big friend.-Cinc
