Trainer FOUGHT FOR LIFE.
Wrestling Bout With Lion Turns to
Grim Reality.

&Titn hCaltkJa
An athlete named Rey, connected
with the Bostock animal show, had a
narrow escape from death one day
this week, says Paris special to the
Kansas City Journal He was en-
gagged in putting the wrestling lion,
when the brute unexpectedly fastened
it's teeth in his jacket. The trainer
stopped wrestling and tried to Olsen
gage himself by withdrawing from the
jacket and leaving it in the Hons pos
session.
But he was unable to do this, and
Bfutus, withouet becoming actually
savage, warmed to the encounter and
began to tear the trainer about the
shoulders and sides. Although bleed
ing freely from fifty wounds, Rey, who
is a powerful, athletic young fellow,
kept his head, and, realizing that he
was at the mercy of the brute If he
fell, kept him Off as best he could.
By this time Mr.. Bostock and his
assistants had gathered around the
cage trying to rescue the trainer and
watched with apprehension the realis-
tic combat between the man and the
lion. The wrestling bout, which had
commenced in the usual playful man
ner, had developed into a grim con-
test, in which one of the combatants
was fighting for his life, and for fully
two minutes his fate seemed sealed
Rey kept up the unequal contest, but
a further difficulty in the way of his
rescue was the fact that in a cage
communicating with that Of Brutus
companion lion was making desperate
efforts to force an entry through
half open door.
AT last Brutus was lassooed by Mr..
Bostock and dragged into the adjoin-
ing cage. After Rey had been ban
daged in the Hippodrome infirmary he
was taken to the Rothschild hospital,
where the doctors said If blood poison
ing did not set in, they hoped to save
him.

Just Discrimination in Railway Rates

just OtSCTiHindLloH III railway HStcss
All railroad men qualified to speak
on the subject in a responsible way
are likely to- agree with President
Samuel Spencer of the Southern Rail-
way when he says: There is no d.
vision of opinion as to the desirability
of stopping all secret or unjustly dis
criminatory devices and practises of
whatsoever character"
Mr.. Spencer in speaking of "un-
justly discriminatory" rates and de-
vices, makes a distinction which is at
once apparent to, common sense. There
may be discrimination in freight rates
which is just, reasonable and impera-
lively required by the complex com
mercial and geographical conditions
with which expert rate makers have
to deal. TO abolish such open and
honest discrimination might paralyze
the industries of cities, states and
whole sections of our national terri
tory
This distinction between just and
unjust discrimination is clearly recog-
hAICu III Tie COACluSlOuS VI lu6 lHtSI-
national Railway Congress, published
yesterday:
Tariffs should be based on CONNER
cfal principles, taking into account the
special conditions which bear upon the
commercial value of the services rem
dered. With the reservation that rates
shall be charged without arbitrary dis
elimination to all shippers alike under
like conditions, the making of rates
should as far as possible have all the
elasticity necessary to permit the devel-
opment of the traffic and to produce the
greatest results to the public and to the
railroads themselves"
The present proposal is, as Mr..
Walker d. Hines of Louisville showed
in his remarkable testimony the other
day before the Senate Committee at
Washington, to crystalline flexible and
justly discriminatory rates into fixed
government rates which cannot be
changed except by the intervention OF
some government tribunal, and by this
very process to increase "the tempta
ton to depart from the published rate
and the lawful rate in order to meet
