ssHe Got Out and Got"
From the "E. E." First Edition.

fTOH tu0 Z. e., rlIst LuIlou.
Yesterday afternoon the quiet and
good order Of the usually peaceful
eighborhood Of the vicinity of Third
and Madison streets, were somewhat
disturbed by the rapid strides of d.
minutive specimen Of humanity with
coat tail at an angle of abont 45 degrees
and valise in hand chased by a larger
and more portly fgnre with seven
shooter. The facts in brief are these:
The fugitive, who wore white hat and
beat such hasty retreat, lives, at times,
upon the romantic banks Of the Brandy
wine, nigh unto the Dupont powder
yards, where he has wife; his name is
not material but suffice ii to say that the
one he has assumed Is different from
that of his parents. He is by no means a
model of manly beauty, but, despite
his uncomliness, he appears to be some
thing of a ladies' man and to have a
penchant for the wife of another. He
was discovered yesterday going out Of
the alley alta he'd to the house, by the
infuriated husband and, had it not
been for his feet footedness, would
likely have been marked for life.

TIE ANIMAL LIBERATED BY A
TRAMP [ OF SPITE.-A York CPa.)
telegram to Philadelphia Times says
Last night, after the London circus
train had left Washington and had ira
versed about thirty miles, a full-sizcd
Brazilian iaguar, a beast more ravenons
and ferocious than Il tiger, escaped
from his cage on IA fiat car and bounded
into the woods. The train had stopped
to permit another train to pass, and a
tramp, who had secleted himself on the
car, opened the cage, allowing the ami
NAL its liberty. About twenty of his
fellow tlamps had been previously
elected from the train, and it is sup
posed he committed the act for spite.
One of the circus hands saw him open
the cage, but supposed he was one Of
the regular hands. When the animal
escaped, the tramp jumped from the
TAIN, and although pursued by about
twenty men made good his escape.
The .jaguar was a powerful animal, and
cost 81 800 two years ago. He was
about five feet long, and naturally one
of the most terocious beasts in the me
nagerie. Early this morning the
mangled remains of il man we've found
near the Baltimore x Potomac Rail
road. fifteen miles east of this place.
1t has not been ascertained yet whether
this Is the first victim OF the jaguar or
not. The PEOPLE here are much ex-
cited, and have lcen warned to take all
precautions against an attack. The
proprietors offer $500 for the capture of
the Least or for proof Of his death.
They cisclaim any lesl onsibility for loss
of life or damage to farmers stock
which NAY ensue, as the escape was
something which they could not pro-
vide against.
