THE CAREFUL ELEPHANT.
His Bump Of Caution Seems to Be Re.

The author Of From Jungle to Zoo"
in explaining the difficulties OF trans
porting wild animals by rail, gives a
striking example of the elephants eau
tiousness:
"The keepers generally place II heavy
platform from the door Of the truck TO
the ground. but few elephants win
venture OH II. In one case the men
sent in a trained elephant lirst in the
hope that the newly captured elephant
would follow. The new elephant stop
ped dead. however. threw up his trunk
and made II evident that he would 20
no farther.
They offered him all kinds Of food
and addressed him with encouraging
words: they led the trained elephant
out and then IN again with II rush. in
the hope that the other wonld follow
in the excitement Of the moment. But
1t all had no effect whatever there the
balky one stood, waving his trunk and
gancing from left 10 right nnd then
from right to left with his little crafty
eyes.
AT length after two hours Of hard
work. when the men were exhausted
and streaming with perspiration. the
elephant suddenly lowered his trunk.
seized the inclined platform aud threw
1t away. Then. lifting up first one huge
foot and then another. he walked
quietly into the truck and settled down
at once to a good meal"
