on this proposition.

this morning, when State Chairman
Taynton will call the convention TO
order. Singing by Rev. s. L. Todd and

SENSATIONAL LION ACT
Startling Tragedy May Happen at the
 White City This Week.

White City This Week.
 A great week opens at the White City to-day. The biggest free outdoor at- traction ever offered to the public any where in the country opens a weeks engagement this afternoon. The att traction is Herman Weedon's ferocious troupe of trained lions, which has been on exhibition at the White City for a week and which thousands are anxious to see go through an act that is fraught with the utmost peril to the trainer.
 Professor Weedons lions are the youngest performing to-day, and were brought from Africa but little over a year ago. Their ferocity can well be imagined.
 The worst of the beasts is the lioness, and it is with this one that some after noon or night, during the present weeks performances, the spectators may witness a mortal combat between the Honess and trainer, for which Pro lessor Weedon has thoroughly prepared himself.
 The Honess attacked him in Montreal recently and he was on the point of shooting her, when he succeeded in beating her off. The next time Weedor says he will shoot her and not take the terrible chances that led to Bonavita losing his left arm in the combat with the notorious Baltimore" at Bostock's s A hair-raising spectacle is the feeding of the lions at o'clock every night See the lion cub, the lamb and the for in the same cage and the great UhlanC Danish hound.
