ELEPHANTS HELP UNCLE SAM.
Mail Wagon stuck In Mud 10 Extrl
Gated by Huge Animals.

New YORK., Sept. 21.-But for the
strength and courtesy OF four huge
elephants, a two-ton batch OF mails
stuck on the 6ixtieth street station
would have missed the train at the
Grand Central station last nigh.
The trouble began when a large mai.
wagon, lOadsd TO the top. swung dowp
Sixth avenue and ventured a SHARP
turn at the corner where street repair
had left a strip of soft earth, turned
TO sticky mud by the recent rains. A
new driver, employed in place Of o
striker. was on the wagon and was
accompanied by a policeman. He
urged the horses into the trap and the
wheels sank TO the Aubs. A crowo
gathered and broke three heavy ropes
In their efforts to help the horses.
Then the policeman had happy
thought. He sent r. messenger TO an
amusement house nearby and asked
for the service OF the performing ele
plants. Four were hurried TO the
scene In charge OF their keepers.
They were harnessed to the sides
OF the wagon and jerked 1t out OF the
mud with indescribabie ease, while
the crowd cheered.
Early in the evening a crowded Mad
ison avenue electric car crashed into
a large mail wagon at Fifteenth street
and Union Square. overturning the
vehicle. The strike breaker driver and
a policeman by whom he was accom-
panied, were thrown into the street
Both were severely injured. The mo
torman was arrested.
