KICKED BY A HORSE
Ray Packer Has Right Cheek Torn
OF While Playing
Circus.
Albert Hobbl, Northwestern EN-
ploye, Thrown From Train
West Of City.

A distressing accident occurred at
about noon today at the home of Coun-
ty Recorder Anna b. Packer, Ill South
First street. when her eldest son, Ray,
a lad of 8 years. was kicked in the face
by the family horse.
Ray was playing circus with several
Of the neighbor children and was act
ing in the capacity of ring master. The
horse was used in the ring, and in a
manner that he was not accustomed to.
One or two of the acrobats We're jump
ing on and off his back, and Master
Ray was touching up his hind quarters
with his whip. The result was that the
poor animal decided to defend himself
and began to kick, striking Ray
squarely in the face. The right cheek
was entirely cut away, HANGING only by
a few torn and bleeding muscles. The
cheek bone was broken and his right
eye slightly injured. The accident
caused great deal of excitement
among the children and put an end to
the circus. Physicians were hurriedly
summoned to the Packer home and the
lads cheek sewed back to its proper
position, taking twenty stitches to COM
plete the operation.
This afternoon he is reported as rest
Ing quite easily. The accident, although
very serious and painful one, is not
necessarily such as to cause any i'm
mediate alarm for the child's life.

causes for the higher opening. The
speculative features are, commission
houses and monied men are bullish on

trade and local scalpers are on the
other side and fight the advances. That
is where the short interest is kept
alive. We have noted every

AN EQUINE PARADOX.
st1ty-one Horses Acting ut One Time
In One Ring.

stxty-one Horses Acting ut One Time
In One Ring.
Among the hundreds of star features
associated with Ringing Bros circus
this season nothing has attracted more
attention or excited more admiring
comment than the marvellous perform
ances OF O'Brien's school of high bred
equines. Embraced in this equine com
pany are sixty-one of the handsomest
horses ever seen in circus ring; fact
that all who witness the performances
of Ringing Bros circus when it ex-
hibits in Marshalltown Tuesday. Au-
gust %, will be able to attest. Three
features OF this great act are partlcu-
larly notable-the large number of
horses, the greatest company of equines
ever trained in this way, the brilliancy
and costly magnificence of the trap
pings and the immense amount of
paraphernalia used in the production.
The display is given in the middle ring.
This arena is especially constructed for
the act ana is carried by the show In
stead OF the usual circle of earth there
is wooden parapet, the top of which
forms narrow circle platform enclosing
the arena. In the center of the ring is
a succession of circular stages, rising
like terraces one above the other and
ending in a lofty pedestal The director
takes his station in the arena. A sig
nal Is given and a handsome thorough
bred, with arched neck and waving
plumes, canters into the ring. This
proud specimen Of horsehood, the
matchless charger silver King" is
the avant courier of sixty beautiful
equnes, gorgeously caparisoned, but
unrestrained by reign or bride. which
approach with the whirl and sweep OF
cavalry charge, and then, suddenly
hating in their mad flight, line up in
solid column, awaiting with proud i'm
patience the first orders of their i'm
plicitely obeyed trainer. The perform
ance that follows staggers even the evil
dences of the senses. The equine actors,
without the slightest hesitation or
prompting. execute the most difficult
evolutions. dance, piourette, form colos-
sal tableaux and go through the move
ments of a difficult military march.
Then score or more of the horses take
their places on the parapet of the ring
others group themselves upon the cir
cular central stages. AT the apex is
the shapely Silver King. Vaulting
upon the back of this beautiful equine
and raising the superb animal until he
seems to be poised in air. the trainer
mods his head. Instantly the great
company Of horses is in motion. Some
run to the right, others to the left, but
without leaving the narrow platforms.
With their sleek coats cleaning. with
their radiantly beautiful trappings gilt
tering in the light, and the waving Of
their vari-colored plumes. they form a
picture Of indescribable beauty, lovely
