Thieman was taken to the receiving
hospital. where his wounds, fOrty-three
in nun Der, were examined. BY one blow
from lions paw, he mad been scalped
from the forehead to the nape of the neck.
Under each arm there were terrible bites,
whore the lions had attempted to reach a
vital spot. One of them nearly succeeded
for he Just missed a large artery. The
mans arms, legs. thighs and buttocks
were also bitten and scratched. At the

him down with blow on the head. Then

The lions are all full grown beasts, and
have been exhibited as trained animals

the situation. the cage door became stuck,
and there was some delay in opening it
when Boone entered the cage to rescue

animals for one night, and the perform
ance was discontinued.
The doctors think there is a possibility
of Thieman's recovery, unless blood poi
