Elephant Took Wad from

ONLY A DOLLAR BILL WAS OF
PASSABLE CONDITION WHEN

HARD PRoDDING BY ATTEND
ANTS AT THE PARK.
Special to The journal.

New York, July 27.-Gunda, an ele-
phant at the Bronx Geological park,
abruptly ended a country cOuple's
honeymoon by chewing all their ready
cash. The big animal collects cents
daily from spectators and boards them
in q bank above his head
James Henchcliffe and his bride,
who were just married at PawlinS,
y. Y, were standing before Gunda' s
cage watching him collect pennies
from the crowd when it suddenly Oc-
CURED to the bridegroom to see II
pick-pockets had tried TO get his roll
of bills. This roll was specially for
the bridal trip and amounted to about
5000. He pulled the roll cut of his
pocket, upon which Gunda deftly
grabbed the greenbacks with his
trunk and stuck them into his mouth.
The bride screamed and the bride
groom shouted at seeing the pachy-
derm complacently munching the
money.
Two keepers rushed up and prodded
the beast until he yielded the cash.
The money looked as If J., had been
through a cornsheIleT. Only single
dollar bill was passable.
The bride wept bitterly, but the
bridegroom cheered her with the OBJ
servation that the elephant had left
them enough with which to return to
Pawling.
But before that khe will try to get
the suDtreasury to redeem some or

As the campaign, perhaps the most
memorable in the history of the state,
draws to a close the public is getting
impatient, and there are thousands of
voters who would be glad to have the
primary election take place tomorrow
This feeling is shared in good
