OF a new method of preventing the

ing that oxygen was the destroy

found that after the lid was screwed
down air-tight, the oxygen in any

hours, and that the body in the

From Captain r. H. Faucet.

predations in the neighborhood
became so numerous and showed
him to be so ferocious and blood

necessary to make combined eff

presence in order to save property
and secure life.
About fifty men and boys form

A Terrible scene In : Menaseire

x Cbh9OBV OOOoO - - 20SAo8OAAO
The Swiss Times says that at
the menagerie Of Signori Bidel and
Fairnali, on Monday evening De
cember %, the audience were treat
ed to q performance not announ-
ced in the bills. Signor Bidel, the
famous lion-tamer, entered, as us
nal, Q large cage, In which were
lions, lioness, bears hyenas and q
lamb.
After the feats of leaping, ETC.,
ordinary shown in such exhibitions,
the grand features consisted in the
simultaneous approach Of the wild
animals to the lamb, and the ex-
change Of 'the kiss Of fraternity
This was accomplished success
fully, the animals methodically
touching noses, then gravely stalk
ing back to their places. The per
formences was to close with put
ting the lambs head in the mouth
Of a lion. No sooner had the jaws
closed upon the head of the animal
than it was evident by the eyes and
movement OF the tail OF the lion
that foul play was threatened, and
before word OF command could
be given streams Of blood were
running from his mouth. Children
screamed one woman tainted, but
fortunately the panic Was of short
duration. Sianor Bidel, with a
tremendous blow on the throat OF
the lion and 4 shout of command,
forced the half wild animal to re-
linquish his victim, and although,
roaring fearfully, he sullenly obey
ed the fixed eye and gesture Of bis
master, retiring into corner of
the cage. But to the renewed
horror OF the people, in dealing
with the lion he had turned bis
back on the lioness. who, with 9
nowl Of rage leapt upon his back
Fortunately for Bidel, her claws
and teeth enterede his clot5 ing onl,
and, with spring and cry, he leap
ed from under her, at the same
time striking right and left will
bis loaded whip, forcing the ami.
mails to the front Of the cage
There was AN instant of hesitation
and submission on the part of tn,
latter, during which Bidel, revol
yer in hand, unfastened the Gag,
and backed himself out of it. BE
ing safe, the reaction of the aud
ience was tremendous, and tn
cheers that greeted his appearance
were deafening. Although perfect
~ quiet, the deadly pallor of hi
face gave evidence of the DANCE
he had passed.
