From the lime the peo ple ol I ins country, some iweive months ago, read of the capture of Kongo, there has been a curiosity to see this huge beast. At the "round-up" of elephants j county, in Siam last spring there were 23 captured this being the entire haul for the season. Among the few held was the real monarch of the jungle an elephant that had been the goal of every hunter to the forest for years. This big beast was Kongo. Immediately the concessionaries of the San Fran cisco exposition cabled to secure this big beast for the wonderful trained animal exhibit they will have there during the fair. The promoters of the Yankee Robinson shows happened to have Harvey Hale, their European represent ative in Siam at the lime of this offer. Without any conferring with the owners of the big circus, he secured this bin beast (for an enormous rental' for the coining season. It is expected that the principal cities of the country will lie visited by the show during that time. The arrival of Kongo in New- York, as slated above, was wit nessed by tens of thousands ofj people. He was lowered from the vessel by means of a large car, heavily ironed and secured with enormous chains. As the big steam derrick hoisted Kongo in the air, to lie lowered to the har bor, he emilted a terrific "howl" of the desert. This is a noise peculiar to this specie of animals in extreme fright. He was im mediately taken to the yards of the Pennsylvania, where, in a specially constructed car, he was brought to the Yankee Robinson shows. The unloading from the cars of this enormous beast is well worth your time. Kongo is unloaded usually about 0 in the morning and taken to the lotim mediately. At Plaltsmouth Mon day. May 5.
