THE ELEPHANT TURNED.
A Bit Of Treaehery and a Sadly Bat.
tered Trainer

~
tered Trainer.
Carl Hagcnbcck, the eminent
owner, exhibitor and trainer of
wild animals, had many adventures
in his half century of experience.
Some of them arc described in a
book entitled "Bcasts and Men"
On more than one occasion an elc-
plant came intentionally near
putting an end to Mr.. Hagenbeck's
career. One of the worst accidents
happened at the end of the sixties.
About that time he purchased a
mcnagerie at Trieste, which includ-
ed among the other beasts a fc-
male elephant which stood about
eight feet high. It seemed to be
thoroughly good tempered animal,
its only fault being that it occa-
sionally had the sulks-"a not I'M
common characteristic" comments
Mr.. Hagenbcck, Gin all feminine
creatures"
He soon made friends with the
elephant, which he named Lissy,
and he never passed its stall with
out giving it a handful of food. He
was therefore, he believed, justified
in thinking he had quite won its
heart, and as it never showed any
signs of violence it did not occur
to Mr.. Hagcnbcck that lie might be
dealing with a grossly deceitful
creature.
The elephant was learning a
trick in which it had TO swing its
keeper into the air with its trunk
and then slowly set him upon the
ground again. The word of COM
mand which was given to the beast
when it had to perform this simple
exhibition was:
''Lissy, apport!"
Gone day." to continue in Mr..
Hagenbeck's own words, II found
Lissy alone in her stable, the keep
er being absent. 1t must have been
a devil that made me feel a desire
to be raised on high by her, after
the manner of her affcctionate
treatment of her keeper. I strokcd
and fed her and then, taking hold
of her trunk, called out the word
of command:
UsT ,icsv annortp
''Thcn followed one of the most
vilely trcacherous acts of which l
have ever heard. Lissy began to
obey the order, but l soon felt that
she was bent on mischief, for the
embrace of her trunk was unpleas-
antly vigorous, and I scared high
into the air.
"But 1 was not quietly deposited
once more upon my feet.
"Instead of this Lissy dashed me
violently against the wooden bar
rier in front of her stall, and I
went flying over into the menag-
erie.
81 lay almost scnseless upon the
ground until the old keeper, Phi
lippe, appeared to help me home.
fortunately no bones were
broken, but I was terribly battered
and bruised and for weeks could
only hobblc about with great pain"
