ATTACKED BY CINNAMON BEAR
Awful Experience of "Animal Man
at Boise Park.

Charles Hanson, more dead than
alive, is lying in st. Alphonsus hos
pital, weakened from loss of blood
and suffering from terrible wounds,
his scalp torn open. his left side and
his left arm horribly mangled as the
result of having been attacked by the
large cinnamon bear at Riverside
park, narrates the Boise Statesman.
The story of the awful experience
in which Mr. Hanson narrowly es-
capped with his life, as told by those
who saw the encounter is one to make
the blood run cold.
Mr.. Hanson was employed by the
park management to care for the ami
mails at the zoo. In one large cage
were kept two bears. the large cin-
namon and a small black bear. At
about 1890 o'clock yesterday morn
ing Mr.. Hanson determined to give
the bears cage a thorough cleaning.
He cleaned out the cage. neither bear
appearing at all disposed to be ugly.
He went after some straw and as he
returned and entered the cage to dis
tribute the straw over the bottom, the
large bear made lunge at him. He
started to back out of the cage. but
tripped and fell out of the door back
wards.
Both bears imme diately sprang out
out into the enclosure which sur
rounds the cage. The smaller bear
ran to a pan of meat and did not try
TO molest Mr.. Hanson. but the large
bear Immediately approached the
fallen keeper and commenced to tear
the flesh from his left arm.
Woman Fought Bear.
Mr.. Hanson's wife and children
were in the enclosure at the time the
accident happened. Realizing their
danger the frantic but powerless hus-
band shouted: For Gods sake. get
out Of here at once; the bear has me
but you can save yourselves"
The plucky wife seized the children
and threw them out of the inclosure,
and then finding a club commenced
to beat the bear. Her screams and
those OF the wounded man brought q
large number of people to the scene
and all were trying with sticks and
clubs to beat the animal off the pros
trate keeper, but without avail.
BY this time bruin had chewed the
muscles of Mr. Hanson's left arm
tore open his scalp, chewed his side
and was about to set teeth in hi:
throat when someone succeeded ii
examining stick into the bear.

for an instant and by this time n mar

about to shoot, when someone yelled

by this time. but he reused himsel

JUVENILE BOSTONIANS.
Personnel Nearly Identical With Will
liams' Juveniles.


Last night the Juvenile Bostonians
entertained the audience at the Fra
ger theater, and while the attendance
was not large the crowd was an ap-
preciative one. The troupe is almost
identical with the one which was here
last year as the Williams Juvenile
Opera company. and the program
was similar to the performances at
that time.
Babe Mason is still the star, and
though she has grown much since last
fall, she has not lost her cunning
manner. Other members of the little
troupe are also good, and during the
performance there was some sweet
singing and clever acting. However,
the entertainment as a whole is not
as good as that presented by the Will
liams company last year.
Robert Hutchison, aged 6 years,
