BENGAL TIdREsS TRAINED
By a PIucky Los Angeles Boy, James
McElroy
1t Is the Only One In the World That
Has Ever Been Tanned and
Educated

There is but one trained tigress in the
world, according to the claims of Ameri.
can showmen, and that one was subdued
and taught its tricks by plucky Los An
geles boy by the name of James McEi-
roy. Old resides t, of the city will re-
member young McEroy as d boy, when he
used to work in his fathers harness shop
on South Spring street.
AT the age of 10 the young man left his
home and went east. Like most boys of
that age, he was fond of adventure.
James was particularly so. He went to
New York and while taking in the town
was attracted by the great establishment
Of Hagenhack. with whom he became en-
gagged, first as simple water carrier. >ris-
ing gradually to the position OF sub
trainer. Learning one day that Sells
Bros. had received cub tigress from
China he asked to be allowed to take
charge OF the cub and train it. The fact
that he was in the employ of Hagenback
was sufficient recommendation. and he
accordingly received the place for which
he had asked, Notwithstanding it was con-
ceded to be impossib BILE to train the til
gress. Tigers had been trained, but til
crosses never.
McElroy took the little beast and made
a companion of it. Every day the played
with it and carried it apout among he
other animals. No one else was allowed
to touch the youngster. AS it grew older
be began it's education. first putting it
upon the back OF an old horse until it
learned t. keep its place. When the beast
had grown to it's full size it was placed
IN ring. and a harness attached to its
body, to which was fastened cord lead
ing to derrick arm. which revolved from
the center pole of the arena. Il horse
covered with a complete armor of heavy
leather, was brought in and the tigress
taught to mouns 1T. At first several
were put in the ring and the animal was
raised by its harness to the first and so
on to the highest, finally being raised to
the horse's back.
The first time this process was tried
the tigress resisted but being forced
through the leather armor and soon
killed him. An attendant who was as
sisting McElroy rushed at the brute and
lashed her with his whip. The infuriated
tigress turned upon MIN and killed him
almost instantly. Since then she has been
handled by McElroy alone. who has
finally succeeded in controlling her and
educating her to do many wonderful
feats.
He gave his first public exhibition in
San Francisco two weeks ago, when he
was presented with $4,000 by Mr.. Sells,
! who recognized that 500 brute had been
made worth in the market the sum OF
500, 600. and so decided to give the trainer
| a quarter of it's worth. James McElroy
and Victoria, the trained tigress, are
with the new Great Syndicate shows.
James will give q private exhibition to
a number of his OLD Los Angeles friends
and members of the press next Friday be-.
fore the regular aftern oon matinee. Vic
toria will appear at the regular perform

OF the recent difficulties experienced
in regard to his island, Trinidad. the

his interests, that the treatment at WASH
ington had been all he could ask and that
from the British he feared very little
trouble. The baron's representative is
now in Newport negotiating with Sir Ju-
lian Pauncefota, the British ambassador,
on the matter, ami everything promises
to be satisfactorily adjusted, and If there
is any actual difficulty it will be much
