At the lilppodrome.,


| One of the feature acts at the Hip
podrome this week, came near being
cancelled, because of the nearly fatal
accident to one OF the star perform
| ers. Dutch the mammoth elephant,
which is booked to appear at the
Hippodrome all this week, nearly lost
her life last night, when she crashed
through the floor of the livery barn,
where accommodations had been se-
cured for her This barn is built over
the long forgotten gulch that ran
through that part OF town, and was
supposed to have been built solidly
enough to withstand much greater
weight than that Of the elephant, but
shortly before ten o'clock last night,
Ia loud crash In the barn brought a
wondering crowd to the place where
the elephant had been assigned. 1t
was discovered that the floor under
Dutch" had given way and precipitat-
ed her enormous bulk into the gulch
beneath. The mud was several feet
deep and TOR a while there was dam
ger that the huge animal would sink
from sight. During the time that she
vas in the hole, Dutch helped the
workmen all she could, sinking the
blocks and boards thrown down to
form bed for the runway. and pick
ing of all the projecting ttmbers,
with her trunk Finally a runway was
built In front of her and she walked
up and over to big tank of water
where she patiently waited to have
the mud scraped and washed on her.
The only damage done to Dutch"
was a slight BIT Of hide, knocked off
over ono eye She win appear at the
Hfppodrome this afternoon and at
every performance this week. Manag-
er Angel has had the stage braced
with large timbers to be sure that
similar accident will not happen in the
theatre. The balance OF the bill is an
exceptionally clever one and will be
greatly enjoyed by the Hippodrome
patrons-Adv.
