HEY ARE JEALOUS.

The Morning News Has Fake Re-
port Of ths Flight Of Fourpaw .
Circus.
The sensational story published In the
Morning News headed "a Flight By
Night, is exploded by the statement Of
the constables who were supposed to be
fooled" Constable Smith says be has
not had any claim against the Fourpaw
Circus. Constable Windish had one and
was paid before noon Saturday.
Constable Hurlock had claim
and got It OH presentation about
"A D. m. Constable Resrdon got bis
claims, two in number, during Saturday
afternoon and Constable Paul Began
states that he was paid.
The Morning News reporter evidently
found mares nest, singular thing, by
the way, when 1t Is understood that the
circus was a protege Of the city rail-
way and the Morning News is 9
beneficiary Of that monopoly. The besrded

BULL KILLED LION.
Tho Contest Took Place In Mexico and
Was Rather Ono Sided.

Was Rather Ono sided.
MONTEREY, Mexioo, May G--papuell
the man eatipg lion, was killed here In
the bull ring by Mexican bull The con-
test between the bun and the lion was
witnessed by ., coo persons. who were wild
ly enthusiastic over the situations offered
by the combat. 1t was thoroughly bru-
tai affair.
Parnell fought a bull here two weeks
ago, getting rather the worst OF the bat
tie; consequently. on being lot into the 30
foot circular steel cage, he failed to show
the fire and aggressiveness that animated
him two weeks ago. In fact, he played
the coward, and instead of meeting the
bull in its first mad dash, as il was ex-
peoted he would, he turned to one side
and avoided him again and again
The bull continued on the offensive. but
the lion never returned the attack except
when the closeness Of the combat was
such that he could not avoid 1t. Twice he
made vicious grabs at the bovines nose
SO that 1t was streaming with blood
though tho blood was due in part to the
bull dashing his nose on tho ground in
attempts Co got his horns low enough to
toss bis adversary.
After racing about the ring Parnell
finally found q place so close TO the edge
Of the cage that it was difficult for his an
tagonist to got at him, whore no crouched
in abloct fear. Finally, yielding to tho
demands Of tho crowd, tho attendants
throw rope around Parnells head and
drew him to tho center Of the ring whore
the BUN finished him.
The one sided combat lasted one hour,
Tho lions injuries must have been in
formal, as, Notwithstanding the terrible
tossing he received. his tough hide did
not seem to have been punotured by the
bulls horns.
