support of the delegation should have
been given without a contest But the
railroad workers invaded it and made
a desperate effort to carry it against
MN by means of personal canvass
which reached and appealed to every
republican voter in the precinct.
In that contest Mr. Dovell was Sc
lected as one of the staunchest sup
pOrterS of the railroad candidate, so
much so that he was named in the
caucus as one of the candidates for
delegate to the county convention, and
his name was placed second on the
Guie list. Through the railroad sup
porters of Samuel H. Piles. Mr.. Guie's
railroad supporters induced Mr.. Piles
to express a preference for Mr. Guie
and the railroad primary ballots were
headed "Piles-Guie Advisory Ballot"
But Mr. Lewis personal popularity and
excellent political record carried him
through the fight and his delegates
were elected by a vote of 222, while
the Guie candidates got 1S6 votes.
Notwithstanding his victory in his
own precinct, however Mr.. Lewis was
overwhelmed by the railroad forces
under the guise of Piles senatorial
candidacy and a compromise candidate
was nominated.
Although defeated in his effort to go
to the county convention Mr.. Dovell,
being a loyal railroad man, was named
by Mr.. Piles and his advisors as one
of the delegates to the state conven-
tion at Tacoma and was one of the 115

MAULED BY FIERCE LION.
la GouIue Is Terribly Hurt at Paris
by Untamabe Brute.

PRAIS. Oct 2O-Louise Dresseler
better known as "LaGoulue." who.
some years ago. has become a tanner of
wild animals, was terribly mauled by
a lion at ST. Cloud fair this week.
She was putting a fine Abyssinian
lion named Negus through his PAGES
when the brute savagely attacked her.
He caught La Goulue's hand. in his
paws and refused to loosen his hold,
although several soldiers in the audi
ence prodded him with the points of
their swords.
Several spectators became panic
stricken and made a wild dash for the
exit, bringing down a portion of the
tent with them and adding to the gem
eral confusion.
La Goulues husband caught up
crowbar and drove the end into the
lions flank, but the beast still persist
ed in mauling his victim Finally an
assistant caught one of the lions ears
in large pair of pinchers and by sheer
force the brute was hauled off the ap-
parently inanimate body of La Goulue
She was found to be terribly injured
about the head. face and body Her
left cheek and ear had been torn off,
as we'll as the flesh and muscles of the
left arm. She was quickly conveyed
to the St. Louis hospftal, where sne
remains in a serious condition.
Negus came from BOstOcks menag-
erie where it had been found impos-
sible to tame him. La Gouue who is
a very plucky woman and recently
rescued her husband from the grip of
panther. undertook to master the ami
NAL.
In spite of her injuries she says that
as soon as she leaves the hospital she
intends to take Negus in hand again
and bring him to submission.
1t is probable, however, that the
lion will have to be killed as he was
seriously injured in the fray.
