§ €4 Y #1 60 BULLETS NEEDED TO KILL ELEPHANT _ OF BARNES CIRCUS Ai G. Barnes cireus, which has fre quently shown in Waukegan, was lasheM securely to two trees. Nagel approached as close as he dared, traced himself carefully and fired with a large bore rifle. Black Dia-- mond jerked at the trees and howled. The bullet had not pene-- trated his skull. Again and again Nagel fired. HMe succeeded only in enraging the great pachyderm. Finally Nage!l called for more am-- munition. As the sixtieth report of the rifle rang out Black Diamond's legs buckled under him, his body guivered and suddenly his several tons of flesh crashed to the ground. The elephant uttered one last bei-- Icow, the chains screeched against the trees, and Nagel, white faced, rushed from the scene. Black Diamond's troubles started last $aturday when he was being unloaded. Jungle madness caused bim to gore a woman spectator to drath and to toss his trainer over a boxcar when the latter attempted to rescue the woman. Officials of the cireus placed him in solitary confinement in a boxcar and then cudgeled their brains for the most bumane method of dis-- posing of him. Drowning and shoot-- ing both were discarded in favor of poisoning. So a basket of oranges containing 22 ounces of violent poi-- son were placed before Diamond vyesterday. Oranges were his favor-- ite delicacy. He sniffed at them, tut refused to eat. In desperation his owners then ordered him led away and shot to Black Diamond, BlsaUUL NCM CIZ elephant, which killed a woman and injured his keeper last week, paid for his crime with death yesterday in a cotton field near Kenedy, Tex.

It sep-- arates the southern part of Arabia from the continent of Africa. Near the African coast are the volcanic Islets, Eight Brothers.
