OixorxNaty, O., Dec, 10.—(Special Tele- gram to Tae Bee.]—In spite of the eleven forty-five caliber rifle balls fired into the head of Chief, the vicious elephant at the zo00logical garden, last night, the big beast is alive and apparently well this morning. Ho did not escape as re last night, but was outting such wild antics, such as plunging his tusks into the ground and tearing up,the carth and de- stroying everything within reach, that he was adjudaed insane and his keepers tried to kill him. The effort served to restore bis reason, for he has been unusually docile. The theory is that the bullet flattened on his skull but did not penetrate. el 1602.
