LION KILLS A WOMAN
AFTER QUITTING Gage

Repeatedly Downing reloaded his gun and
fired but with little effect. other rescuers
obtained Flobert rifles from the shooting
galleries and Remingtons from the con-
cessionaries, and soon a score were pump
ing lead into the animal. Still standing
over the PROSTATE woman gnashing his
teeth and lashing his tail. the lion stood.
while the ground about him was literally
proved by the hundreds OF shots that
were being fired at him.
Soon, with the noise OF the firearms and
the shouts OF the woman's rescuers, the
lion turned and rushed toward the show
known as the Mystic River" and there
he made his last stand.
With the continuous bombardment the
brute succumbed and sinking down upon
the ground. he turned over on his back
and with a 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

were dressed and later was taken home,

and apparently left open.
Mrs. Hucke succumbed today to her in

OF the Fylgia until daybreak. Il being his
period on the all-night watch. This little
incident will go far TO show with what
strict regard for his duty he attends TO
matters on board the ship.
II have taken a great delight In show
ing his highness around the parts OF the
country where we have been. and he him
self enjoys IL 10 the utmost. He is here
as a representative OF his country and
came principally 10 meet the Swedish peo-
pie and to see the American people as a
whole.
I'VE have already seen the social side
and tomorrow we shall see the president
and few political persons. II will be well
that the prince meet few politicians OF
this country. When we were with Senator
Nelson w. Aldrich he met several OF the
high politicians OF the country, thus CIV
ing him a slight insight into the depart
ment OF this republic.
'At all the places which the prince has
visited the reception has been remarkable.
Worcester was more like a coronation
than simple reception, and know that
his highness enjoyed IL thoroughly. No
more courteous treatment could have been
given US at any place, and II is with
pleasure that / can tell you that The
whole trip so far has been perfect In
every detail"

two hours or more he danced there, hav-

booked at the Providence Opera House,
Sept. 2, 8 and 4. The new play is a
Boston production. being at the pres
ent time on the last week Of a pros
porous run at the Majestic theatre in
that city. The piece is designated as
a tropical musical fancy in two flights,
and is said to embrace in Its construc-
ton the elemental excellencies OF good
old fashioned comic opera in combina-
tion with up-to-date musical comedy.
The cast includes a number of we'll
known musical comedy people, such as
Fred Lennox OF Prince Pro Tenn"
fame, VIII III. Sloan, Henry Norman,
Charles II. Bowers, John Kennedy
John Lorenz, Elsa Ryan. Eleanor Kent
Alice Hosmer and Helen Hayes. owing
to the character of the piece, the
chorus is somewhat larger than that
carried by the average musical show
of today, the entire company compris-
ing about 20 persons. The scenery is
of the gorgeous tropical variety and
the costumes are said to be varied and
pretty The story of the opera has
to do with a mysterious sacred bird,
native of the island of Okoko, in the

attracted the attention OF the crowd.
Soon the shrieks OF hundreds stampeding

Baron Lagercrantz, Sweden's minister
TO this country. denies that his govern
ment is displeased with Prince Wilhelm's
visit to Newport. On this point he says
'The visit OF the prince to this coun-
try which included few days at New
port, where he was introduced 10 some cs
the most wealthy and most fashionable
Of Americas society; his trip to Wor-
cester. where he met and shook hams
with some of the most lowly of his own
countrymen in friendly democracy; his
visit to Boston. where he combined both
society and the less aristocratic: his
journey to this city, where Swedish resi-
dents had the chief part Of ms entertain
ment In their charge. and lastly. his stay
in New York, where he will be entirely
in the hands of his countrymen, were
all In accordance with the wishes OF the
government at Stockholm. and were ar
ranged under its direct supervision"
Baron Lagercrantz replied to dispatch
which was telegraphed TO Western pa
pers, in which it was alleged that the aa-
thorities In Sweden were more or less
displeased at the program OF the enter
tsinment. and that 1t was not in accord
ance with the governments wishes that
the young man should meet so many OF
Americas utra-rich In Newport. The dis
patch also included statements, credited
as directly coming from the baron. TO
the effect that he was afraid that he
might be called to answer for the alleged
bad program. that he was afraid he had
made a mistake In taking his charge TO
Newport, and that he had some doubt
as TO the success of the visit from a po-
litical viewpoint. All OF these sta tements
the baron repudiated in the most vigor-
Gus language. saying that they were en-
tirely false. Said he:
1T is true that l worried somewhat
about one thing, but that had nothing TO
ceived." he said. II worried lest his
health might not stand the strain OF such
q strenuous time. You know, we have
been hurrying from one place TO another

speed, and doing so many things that
