ON THE RAMPAGE.
Chicago's Elephant Gets Loose and Makes
Things Lively for Awhile.

Chicago's Elephant Gets Loose and Makes
Things Lively for Awhile.
CHICAGO, Oct. 10.-The elephant at
Lincoln park went on the rampage in
the usually quiet neighborhood of the
park about 8 o'clock a. III. The huge
animal, which is not yet named, having
possibly eaten something for breakfast
which disturbed his internal economy,
grew suddenly wicked, and breaking
away from his corral started across
country as if he were back in his native
jungles once more. Right through trees
and shrubbery, tramping them fiat with
the earth in his wild career, the huge
beast tore across the park to Clark
street, then south to Wisconsin, making
the air hideous with his discordant
trumpetings and shaking the build
ings as he passed. He turned
on Sedgwick street and continued
his way to Center avenue,
followed by an immense crowd of peo-
pie. Horses and men ran in wild alright
to cover, as the elephant passed. A milk
wagon was passing its accustomed
course on Sedgwick street. The ele-
phant struck it and knocked it dozen
yards away, spreading milk cans and
driver proniscuously on the ground and
killing the horse. The man was badly
hurt also.
Horses on the street cars stampeded,
and there were numerous narrow es-
capes of passengers from serious injury.
At last, at Center and Clark streets, the
keepers succeeded in heading off tho
animal, and throwing number of lines
about him, brought him to full stop
by making them fast to stout tree.
After futile efforts to escape again the
elephant quieted down and was finally
led back to Lincoln park.
