MULHATTON AGAIN.
Alleged Terrors of the jungle Escape
from a Wrecked Circus Tain.

from Wrecked Circus Tain.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, Oct. 19.-There is a
reign OF terror in the vicinity Of St.
Francis, Ark, a village 20 miles west of
this city, on the Memphis, Springfield and
Kansas City railroad.
The woods are filed with fierce tigers,
lions, Jaguars, hyenas, and other animals
crazy with the taste Of blood, ana the in
hanltants OF the little village are barri-
caded in their houses earnestly praying
Tor rellef to arrive. BOacOnstrlctors,
freed from their cages, crawl through the
deserted streets, and the howls Of the
LAUGHING hyenas make sleep impossible.
The particulars of the sudden changing
OF Tue peaceful village into raging bed
lam OF savage beasts were received here
TINS afternoon. A crowd Of villagers rad
assembled on the depot platform awaiting
the arrival Of the train containing John
b. DorlS circus and menagerie, which
was wrecked this morning.
Inc Olg performing elephant, l4l years
Ola, became crazed with fear, and, break
ing through the side Of his car as if it
we're but paste board, dashed towards the
assembled people trumpeting loudly and
waving his trunk trantcally in the air.
While the people We're rushing to their
homes tor shelter many Of the other ami
ana the streets OF the village were soon
flled with them.
The big elephant snatched the 1O-year-
old son OF Druggist John AnsOn from the
stoop OF his fathers residence and threw
the boy distance OF 20 feet. While the
child lay groaning, the big hon Jupiter
broke from his cage, followed by the
loness Juno and her two cubs. They
quickly tore the boy TO pieces, and the
hyenas and jackals snaTled and fought
over the bones.
The elephant seemed mad with excite
ment, and placing his immense head
against the car containing the tigers he
tipped 1t over and broke open the cages.
The smell of blood infuriated the latter
animals, and the few men who had Ven-
tured upon the streets were forced to seek
safety in flying to taeir residences.
The car containing the snakes, some of
which were over IL feet in length, caught
fire, and many Of the reptiles we're burned
to death. Those which escaped crawled
through the streets Kissing with passion.
The villagers kept up fusilade Of re-
volvers and shotguns upon the animals,
and gradually drove them into the woods.
The big elephant was captured by his
keeper and returned to his car, and sew
eral Of the other animals were corraled
by the circus employees and confined in
their cages. There are still several blood
thirsty ANIMALS roaming in the woods
near the village, and many of the inhabi-
tants are afraid to venture upon the
streets. The circus continued on Its way
this morning.
Mr.. Doris offers large reward for the
capture of the escaped members of his
menagerie, and several yOung men of this
city are organizing a rifle club to raise
the siege and nut an end to the horrors
which now affiict the people of st. Francis.
