When Angry They Can Land a Five
Ton Death Dealing Kick.
E. Alexander Powell In tbe Outing
magazine throws some light on the
theory that an elephant Is clumsy.
i
When annoyed a wild elephant has a
unique method of dealing with tbe
overpopulation evil. Mr. Powell says:
“Provided the noosers are working
harmoniously, however, and given re
liable and well trained decoys, the noos
ing of a wild elephant is in Itself a
sight worth traveling half around the
world to see.
“The animal to be roped having been
again selected, tbe decoys closed in on
either side of him until be was practi
cally helpless. A nooser. lithe and ac
tive as an eel. slid down the pad rope
of bls decoy and. waiting until tbe at
tention of tbe captive bad been mo
mentarily distracted, slipped a thick
noose of rawhide round tbe bind ankle
of bis prize.
"It is during this operation that the
accidents usually occur, for should the i
captive suspect an enemy lu his rear
be can lunge out a five ton kick to a |
distance of a dozen feet, and that even
ing the noOser’s relatives assemble for
the funeral.”
How Diviners Are Guided.
Frau Tukory. the wife of a well to
do Hungarian landowner, who is said
to have a special talent for discov
ering minerals with a divining rod.
describes In a Budapest newspaper the
different sensations which she experi
ences.
