Myelephant, Romeo, was lnurderous
brute. Before coming TO this country
he had killed three men, and after his
arrival he killed four more.

forties. On the journey to this country
he killed his keeper on shipboard.
Later he killed Joe Mobiles in Pitts
burgh, Frank Gray in Louisville, Calvin
Porter near indianapolis, and little Ed

great creature either killed or fright

keeper of his own selection. The story
of how the selection was made is inter

SIX THOUSAND MILES OF RAIL-
ROAD.


1t may be interesting to note the fol-
lowing statement of mileage of the New
York Central, leased and operated lines,
which shows the total miles of track
east of Buffalo as 6,114S1.
1t is, of course, generally known that
some of the Western lines have great
er mileage, but their tracks run through
number of sparsely settled States,
while the trackage of the New York
Central and leased lines is all in the
densely populated States of New York
and Pennsylvania, accommodating, by
its numerous trains, millions of pas
sengers each year.
