Only Richards must be with me. This 1s a secret I don't want to give to the public.” “Go as far as you like,” agreed Horh- eday, ‘but you do s0 at your own risk.” Day had just dawned yesterday when Richards and Walter came to the side of the stee! cage. They arranged a chain Joep on the floor. Then Richards spoke roughly to Gunda. The elephant trump- eted and charged toward the bars, He stepped in the loop and one foreleg was caught, While he was fighting to free himaelf, the Jungle man got chain loops about both his hind legs, At 6.30 the mad brute was in shackles that he must wear forever. All day Gunde strained at the chains and trumpeted so furiously that his cries were heard through the park. In fear that he might break loose Mr. Hornaday ordered that the elephant house be closed for the day. pe Ae SIDEWALK CAUSES A WAR. Grace Heirs and Barnes Figure to Neighborhood Quarrel.
