MAD LION AGAIN
ATTACKS RICARDO
Wallace" Sprang Upon His
Trainer and Severely
Injured His Arm

Ricardo, the lion tanner Of the Bos-
took aggregation, which exhibited In
this city during carnival week, had an
other narrow escape from death by a
lion yesterday.
The arena is now exhibiting in Wood
side Park as the Anglo-American
School Of Zoology, and during an exer-
else yesterday Wallace, one OF the
lions, suddenly sprang upon his trainer
and caught him by the left arm, and
would have killed him but for the
prompt action on the part of Ricardo
and the attendants.
No exhibition had been given with
the lion since the show had come from
Chester several days ago. The heat had
irritated the big animal worse than it
is ordinarily. He was restive and hard
to control. No one except Ricardo
would go near the brute Every after
noon the trainer entered the cage to
give Wallace his daily exercise.
AS usual Ricardo entered the cage
about o'clock yesterday afternoon for
drill with the lion. He had scarcely
entered when Wallace sprang at him
and caught him by the left arm below
the elbow. The lion bit him a second
time in the lower part of the arm. AS
he did so Ricardo shot at him with the
revolver which he was carrying in his
right hand. He missed, but the shot
scared the lion and he released the
trainer
Attendants of the show running NJ
kept the big brute in one corner Of the
cage while others dragged Ricardo out
through the door. His left arm was
lacerated and the flesh torn from the
bones. The arm began to swell at once
and ricardo was taken in ah urry tc
the Presbyterian Hospital After hav-
ing the wounds treated and dressed the
trainer returned to the show.
