The elephant made complete
wreck OF the snake house and before
she got out she had overturned nearly
every cage and tank. Every sort OF
reptile squirmed TO get to freedom,
and many of them succeeded.
Director Hornaday and dozen men
were outside the snake house and
the elephant charged on them. Some
of them had start on the big trum-
peting beast and escaped 10 a further
end OF the Bronx park. Others took
TO trees and as Luna passed on they
climbed down and began gathering
up the snakes that were twisting and
squirming and kissing as they glided
to the tall grass in the park. How
many of the snakes escaped is not
known.
Luna charged from one end Of the
park TO the other. Now and then she
attacked some house in her fury.
and once she made for the lion cages.
She swiped her trunk against the
bars. and the lions and tigers clawed
at her, the lions rearing and the
tigers sereaming.-
