A target, numbered from 25 to 100,

marksmen take turns shooting at it

the real novelty about this game, as it
consists of a short stick, with round

Executing a Monster Elephant.

The Indian elephant named Fritz
in the geological gardens of Berlin
was Europe's largest animal until it
finally had to be killed for distemper.
DR.. Schilling was appointed hangman.
First he tried strangulation by means
of ropes and pulleys. But the ropes
broke and the elephant remained in
tact. Next he tried poisoning. The
animal was given fodder of fresh ba-
nanas, which was devoured with a rel
ish. Then few bananas were dip
ped in carbolic acid-but no amount
of coaxing could make Fritz "go"
them. Finally, shooting was tried.
The heaviest big game rifle was pro-
cured and shot was fired into the
left armpit. The elephant merely
looked around in surprise. the bullet
having flattened against the shoulder
blade. Then a Maxim gun was pulled
up. A fusillade of projectiles was
pumped into the big beast under the
right armpit. The elephant went
down like house. In its death strug-

railway station, which is without the
city's walls. we are confronted by
confusion OF jagged roofs pierced by
iofty spires and massive towers. All

easements, pointed oriels. dormers
