Speedy Action Prevented Lynching
At South Bethlehem, Pa.
Allentown. Pa, Aug. p. - George
Schuman, a member of the South Beth
lehem police force, was shot and killed
by William Jones, a southern negro,
on the tracks of the Philadelphia G
Reading railroad. Three shots were
fired at Schuman at close range. Two
shots entered the right breast and the
third penetrated the right shoulder.
Despite the terrible wounds, Schuman
walked to police headquarters, and,
with his dying gasps, reported that he
had been shot by negro. He then
became unconscious and died 10 min
utes later.
Schuman fired two shots at his as
sailant. Two hours later a wounded
negro was found in a lumber yard who
answered the description of the man.
As soon as the killing Of Officer
Schuman became known intense eX-
element prevailed. and the South
Bethlehem police realized that speedy
action would have to be taken to pre-
vent a lynching. An automobile was
secured and the negro was rushed to
the Easton Jail. where he is now con-
fined. Chief Kelley had to draw his
revolver on the mob that attacked the
automobile.

LION ATTACKS
WOMAN AT PARK
Was Rescued From Death by q
Fusilade of Bullets.
HER CONDITION IS SERIOUS

Pittsburg, Pa, Aug. 2S.-Torn, bruis-
Cd and suffering from shock, Mrs.
Anna A. Hucke. So years old, OF this
city lies at her home in a precarious
condition as the result Of an attack
by a lion at Luna Park, a summer re-
sort in this city. Mrs. Hucke was res
cued almost from the jaws of death
while she lay on the ground where
the animal had thrown her, and while
scores Of rescuers were firing a fusi-
Jade Of bullets into the blood-crazed
beast, which meanwhile was biting
and clawing at the wOman's body.
The attack occurred when the park
was crowded with women and chill
dren. Without warning, the lion ap-
peared from behind one Of the build
ings with a roar, the while lashing his
tail. He crouched and sprang for Mrs.
Hucke. who was nearest to him. The
woman screamed and attracted the at
tention of the crowds. Soon screams
Of the hundreds stampeding for the ex-
its were added to Mrs. Hucke's dis
tressing cries, but these did not dis
tract the lion from his assault
The noise of the panic attracted the
attention of w. A. Downing, chief OF
the park police, who came running
to the rescue. He found the lion tear
ing away at the woman's clothing, and,
having drawn his revolver while rum
ming. he Immediately emptied all the
chambers into the beast
Repeatedly Downing reloaded his
gun and fired, with but little effect.
Other rescuers secured FlObert rifles
from the shooting galleries, and Rem
ingtons from the Concessionaires, and
soon a score were pumping lead into
the lion. Still standing over the pros
trate woman, the lion stood, with the
ground about him literally plowed up
with the hundreds of shots that were
being fired at him..
Soon, with the noise of the firearms
and the shouts of the woman's res
cuers, the lion turned and rushed to- |
ward the show known as the Mystic |
River" and here he made his last
stand. Here, with the continued bonn
bardment, the brute succumbed, and |
sinking down upon the ground, he |
turned over on his back, and with
few kicks and gasps died. His skin
was completely riddled with the small
calibre bullets that had been fired at
him and took effect.
Mrs. Hucke was rushed to the Park
hospital. where her inju-
ries we're dressed, and later she was
taken home. where it is expected she
will recover, unless blood poisoning
sets in. 1t was said the lion cage had
been cleaned earlier in the day, and
apparently left open.
