Animal pictures were going great in those days and there was a complete zoo on the lot. The king of that collection of beasts was Char-li- e, an elephant bought from a circus. Charlie was e good actor, but nobody could handle him except Curley, his personal trainer. Well, Ike stepped Into the dramatic part of the picture when Director Smalley began staging the wedding procession of an Indian prince. It was comedy, and, fur the parts of the Indian prince and his bride, two actors, weighing nearly 400 pounds each, wrere cast. Ikes job was to build a huge canopied chair in which the prince and princess were to ride In state on the back of Cliarhe, the elephant. exact -- Charlie Didnt Like Ike. Ike finished the royal hovvduh. Woikmen tried to budge It and found that it weighed nearly 2,000 pounds. Twelve men heaved and struggled to saddle Charlie with the gorgeous structure. Then, 700 pounds of prince and princess went up tire ladder. Thats where Charlie took a dislike to Ike. And then, when the director called for moie ornaments, Ike put a stepladder against Charlies side and climbed up. There was Charlies chance. He whipped his trunk around, seized Ike by the leg, trumpeted In anger and lifted him for a dash to the ground. Curley, the trainer, sank his curved elephant hook Into Charlie forehead and Ike limped away. That was his first round with his monstrous enemy. The trainer knew elephants. He knew what to expect In the future, so he warned Ike. Charlies going bad, he said. Hell kill you the first chance he gets. Ike did watch out. But one night a wild chimpanzee cleverly opened his cage and almost killed a keeper. Ike hurried over to devise a lock that the chimp couldnt open. Charlies big stall was next door.

The whole zoo trembled from the elephant's fury. Curley, the trainer, again rushed to th rescue. For God's sake, Ike, leave this studio If you value your Charlie turned killer. He' out for you, life, Curley said. Luiky for you his chains held. Ike took no more chances. He gave Charlie a wide berth. But on day, when his work called him to a remote part of the movie lot, ha rounded a hill and ran smack into Charlie, tethered to an anchor of poles and railroad iron, driven Into the ground. The Elephant Ileally Went Bad. Ike had no time to turn baik. The bull elephant, ears flattened against his head, eyes blazing and his trumpeting echoing from th hills, charged. Rosen was trapped, llis only chance was to dive for a shallow gully that separated the movie lot from on Indian village. He flung himself Into the gully und flattened himself against the side. The earth was vibrating under those plunging feet. Ike only hoped for a quick death. Then, there was a clank of chains the groanings of the heavy anchor poles set deep in the ground. Charlie had reached the end of his chain. His ticad was jeiked down. He stumbled, plowed the earth. The maddened beast was hailed only a few feet from Ikes hiding place. Rosen could see those bloodshot eyes gleaming with hatred a lust to kill. The lung trunk slashed out in fury, Ike felt a thud on the side of his head as Charlie's trunk grazed him and snatched off his cap. For a moment big Charlie paused to hurl his enemys cap beneath his feet and trample It to ribbons. That pause saved Rosen. He was on his feet, running, limp and ripping with cold sweat. But Charlie bided his time. For days he worked quietly. And then, during the making of a spectacular film in a setting of Old Jerusalem, Ike crossed the set and came face to face with his old foe. Once more Charlie charged in an insane desire to crush the man who had tortured him with that huge, 2,000 pound saddle In the earlier picture. But this time Ike was in the clear. He ducked to safety. Tha baffled elephant, once more cheated of his vengeance, turned upon the set. Jerusalem, with all Us splendor thousands of dollars worth of costly settings trashed into a heap of dust and splinters. This time Charlie did not quiet down. He was ready to kill anything in sight. Men with long, spiked poles, ripped his hide and jabbed him into helpless submission but only for a moment. How the Killer Was Killed. days later he saw Ike in the distance and went Into another frenzy. Rosen scurried out of sight, but Charlie, thirsting for a kill, seized his trainer, Curley, lifted him high Into the air, dashed him to earth and then, with his massive forehead, ground mm into the dust. Curley was killed instantly. Killer elephant! The words set Hollywood trembling. It was no longer a single foe. It was the life of any human being. Charlie must die, studio officials ruled But how? Poison and dynamite were rejected as not sure enough. Ike Rosens technical skill was enlisted Despite his narrow escape, he hated to be Charlie's executioner, but many lives were at stake. A heavy wire cable was rigged over pulleys, looped around Charlie' neck and lashed to two heavy trucks, headed in opposite directions. Tha trucks started The loop tightened. Cables sang with the strain. Charlie looked sorrowfully and inquiringly at the men around him. His knees from strangubuckled, his head sank. II, s great bulk rolled over-de- ad lation.
