this popular impress.
sion as we'll as most OF the beliefs
about the elephant are, erroneous.
In the first place the elephants we
see here in America are Indian ele-
plants. They are understood. even
The largest OF them.
A full.grown African elephant Is
nearly three times the size Of Jumbo,
which was the largest elephant ever
brought to America. I have shot sew
eral. specimens which stood over thir-
!. teen feet and which weighed at least
twice as much as Jumbo.
Next to the monkey, the elephant Is
The wisest and most Intelligent OF all
animals. am not saying this Of the
domesticated Indian elephant, but OF,
the African elephant in his native
state. And the African elephant Is
always a huge, Wild beast. He 1s
never domesticated.
During the past two years that I
spent In British East Africa and
( Uganda studying the elephant as he
has lived for centuries. / learned sew
eral things about him that entities

Of all animals, the monkey alone ex-
cepted.
HI many respects he surpasses the
monkey, but the latter's intelligence
more nearly approaches our own, and
for that reason we must consider him
the highest type Of intelligence.
Much to my surprise, discovered
that the bull elephant is rarely Tight
or. Indeed, there is little danger from
him. The generally accepted theory
that the big bulls are not found In
the big herds is a fallacy.
h The bull elephants that are found
roaming alone are almost invariably
senile gentlemen who have been cast
of by herd. While succeeded in
getting three splendid specimens OF
bull elephants the finest specimen is

the center of a herd Of 700 elephants.
who guard him night and day.
These herds OF elephants have COW
leaders. The leader Is usually an old
animal with an ugly disposition. The
cows protect the bulls. and the mo-
ment they scent danger they crowd
around them In order to prevent them
from being shot. If they can see the
1 hunters they viii charge them. leaving
enough of their number to guard the
bulls.
Their sense Of smell is very acute.
They can detect the presence OF

he is moving they can't see him, even

Barney Oldheld, TetZlaff and De Palma Expected
 at Phoenix

PHOENIN. June That Barney OldfeId. Teddy Tetzlan and be Palma. three Of the greatest autUmO- bile drivers in the world, will in all probahilit, be seen at the track races at the state fair next fall. is the statement of Attorney General BuL lard TetzIan is certain to come. and there is little doubt that ths other two men wiIi' bc here also. ri they do. this trio will make uu the greatest racing card ever seen here and one Of the greatest ever seen anywhere in the world
 Tetzlaf is already widely known in Phoenix. but De Palma and Oldhcii are not That is to say. they are Eoj known personally But there is no, a man. woman Or child who ever felt the trill that goes with the sigh. of an automobile race that does not know something about these speed maniacs <
 And of all the racers Barney Old field is, in a way. in a class by him self Not that he is the holder Of the record any more: but because he was one Of the pioneers in this daring and dangerous sport-because for a long time he was the man who hal travelled faster than any other human being. he occupied d unique place among racing men.
 This is just little more ambitious program than Mr. Bullard has ever attempted in connection with the Phoenix races. And if he succeeds in putting il across he will have given the state fair boost that will add in no small measure to its present high degree of popularity.
