IN SIGHT Of HUNDREDS
Infuriated Animal HurIs Man
Into Air and Repeatedly
Pierces Body.

DIXON. Mo, April 29.-Hundreds OF
persons yesterday saw an Infatuated ele-
plant hurl its trainer into the air and
then, after crushing him with its weight,
repeatedly pierce the body with its tusks.
The tragedy came while James Hide
brand, the trainer, was endeavoring to
put the animal, which belonged to a Wild
west show. into a car. Hildebrand was
adjusting the chains which bound the
elephant TO its mate.
Without warning the elephant became
enraged, and. wrapping its trunk around
the trainers body. lifted him high in
the air, then dashed him to the ground.
1t is believed he was killed instantly.
Thrusts Tusks Into Body.
With its rage still unsatisfled, the ele.
plant began kneading the trainers body
with its forefeet. Then 1t dragged the
body thirty feet along the railroad
tracks In the yards and repeatedly thrust
it's tusks into it.
Attaches of the show ran to the rescue
with pitchforks and drove the elephant
from its victim. 1t was not subdued until
its sides were streaming with blood from
the goads
Immediately after the tragedy the ele-
phant was shot. Hildebrand had been
the trainer for years and frequently slept
beside the elephant.
