lascerated and his clothes almost
torn from his body. Wandering
from this place he was shortly af-

bear, which knocked him down.
When the keeper arrived and pull
ed the tear away Mr.. Green was SO
badly scratched about the face and
ears as to be unreconizable After
being shown the way out of the
park by a sympathetic policeman,
Mr.. Green was followed by large
Billy Goat, which overlook him
near the north gate, and attacked
him so ferociously that dent was
left in his back eight inches in
circumference. When friends came
TO his. assistance the goat was
quietly eating the remainder OF
Mr.. Green's coat tails.
He was placed on the train, but
when q few miles out of Memphis
the conductor could find nc ticket
about his person, so the train WAS
stopped and he was put off in the
woods. He walked all the way
