An Elephant on the Rampage.

A sensation of the first water swept East
st. Louis yesterday morning, OF SO unique
and exciting character that it will not be
forgotten for many long day At about
half past 3 o'clock yesterday morning, Mr..
Edward S. Bradley, a citizen of East st.
Louis, was awakened by his wife, with the
intelligence that burglars were attempting
to effect an entrance to the house, which,
it may be stated, is two story frame, stu
ated on Third street. The upper portion
of the dwelling is occupied by the family
for sleeping apartments, while one of the
lower rooms serves as a room for an old
lady named Flynn, q member Of the The house
hold
On learning that some cause for alarm
really existed, Mr.. B. arose, and, grasping a
huge cavalry sword, stationed himself at
the window, expecting every moment to
see the ingress or attempted ingress of
some daring thief and determined to de-
fend his fireside at all hazards. While
thus waiting, sudden crash was heard
from below, as if the whole side of the
house had been jammed in, and at the
same time the old lady was heard to
scream piercingly, as If wild with fear.
According to the story, the window and
the bureau near it were suddenly dashed
into the middle of the room. Her husband
is night Waterman, and, being soon ex-
pected home, She thought he must have
been out drunk and was attempting to get
in through the window. She sprang from
her bed and seized what she supposed to
be the retreating leg of a man, It had a
queer feeling, however, and was drawn out
ward with violence, and the old lady, hav-
ing advanced to the shattered window,
saw to her horror the towering bulk
Of an enormous elephant Tn
able to overcome the shock, she fell
almost insensiblc' to the floor At this
stage Of affairs, Mr. b., with his drawn
sabre, started to the rescue. The stairs
leading bel0W are on the outside of the
house, and d he descended he encountered
the elephant, who appeared determined to
ascend the steps. A few blows of the
steel blade on the trunk cowed the huge
brute and he commenced q retreat. He
backed fof the yard and took q north
wardly course until he arrived at saloon
owned by Mr.. Charles 6chafner, at which
place he stopped, took . general observa-
ton of the surroundings, then, making
desperate charge, he shivered large door
to atoms. This last affair was the close of
his damage. He wandered of through the
silent streets, and at daylight was found
near the Southeastern depot dead, having,
Il Is said, died from the effects Of the cold,
The explanation of the business was soon
ascertained. The elephant belonged to .

During the night, however, he broke the
