TRAINER ATTACKED
BY ANGRY TIGER
LIKELY TO RECOVER
Animal Objected to Posing as
Horse for Hillside Crowd
and Tore Mans Side.

1t was stated today at the home OF
Paul Niering, animal trainer, 2S6 Co
lumbus avenue, Mt Vernon, that he
will likely recover from the wounds
inflicted by Prince, a royal Bengal
tiger, at Hillside Park. The attack on
the trainer and the two men who went
to his assistance thrilled thousands at
the amusement resort yesterday.
For some time past the tiger has
been acting ugly, so ugly, in fact, that
Mme Lesh, who put him through his
tricks, refused to perform any longer.
She had to flee from the cage one day
last week. The management of the
place recalled that Niering had cared
for the tiger when he was cub and
sent for him. He agreed to go into the
cage yesterday. and as it had been
noised about that the animal was ugly
a big crowd gathered near the cage as
Niering entered.
When Niering entered the cage he
spoke to the tiger, who seemed to recog-
nize him, and appeared docile enough.
When Niering sought to urge the ami
NAL to tricks, however, he roared and
lashed his tail and Niering signaled to
other trainers about the cage to be
ready for an emergency. Niering dex-
terously leaped on the animals back
and proceeded to ride about the cage.
Immediately the tiger displayed a
towering temper. He lashed his tail
and roared and a big crowd was at
tracted outside the cage
Crowd Horrifed.
Many in the crowd turned away in
horror as they saw the thoroughly in
furiated animal throw Niering to the
floor OF the cage and claw him. Mean
while Captain John Irwin and Robert
Mcbride, old animal trainers, who
were prepared for trouble, awaited q
favorable opportunity and dashed into
the cage. slamming the iron door be-
hind them.
Then there was waged a battle which
thrilled all who saw It, The two men.
armed with forks, jabbed and pounded
the wild beast, whose roars set all the
other animals wild. Niering was on
the ground, and, although Irwin and
Mcbride prodded the tiger again and
again, they could not get him to leave
the PROSTATE Niering.
After a number of particularly vigor-
Gus prods from the forks the tiger left
his victim and dashed for Irwin and
Mcbride. who just managed to get out
of the cage and slam the door They
returned again and by combined at
tack drove the tiger back long enough
to get Niering out of the cage.
He was unconscious, and after he
had been attended by DR.. John j. Con-
don. of Belleville, he was taken to his
Mt. Vernon home in an automobile.
His right side and arm were badly
laterated. The performance was de-
Iclared off for the afternoon, as the

BUFFALO PARK VICTIM
WAS YALE SOPHOMORE.

BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug. 22.-The
young man who died in a hospital in
this city last night shortly after being
found in Delaware Park with a bullet
wound in his head was positively iden-
titled by the. police today as Ralph E.
Coleman, of Saranac Lake, N. Y, a
sophomore in Yale University. His
father is expected here tonight.
Until his arrival the police said they
would be unable to give any explana-
ton of the young mans presence in this

whether the case was one of suicide.
The fact that a man was seen running

TO NAME WHITE
CHIEF JUSTICE
President Taft will Promote a
Democrat to Head OF
Supreme Court.

WASHINGTON, December l2.--It is
officially announced that President Taft
will today name Edward Douglass
White, now associate justice of the
United States Supreme Court, to be
chief Justice. This appointment comes
as surprise as Justice White is n
Democrat and halls from the State of
Louisiana.
Edward Douglass Whites career has
in many respects been a rmarkable
one. Born in the parish of Lafourche,
Louisiana, November 3, 1s45. he is now
sixty.five years of age. He was educat-
ed at Mount st. Mary's, near Emmits.
burg. Maryland, at the Jesuit College
in New Orleans and at Georgetown Uni
verSity. During the civil war he served
in the Confederate army.
After the war White took up the
study of law and was licensed to prac.
tise in Louisiana in 1868. In 1874 he
was elected TO the senate of his native
State, and in 1878 was appointed asso-
ciate justice of the State supeeme court.
For years a prominent figure in poll
tics, Justice White was elected United
States senator to succeed James b.
Eustis, and took his seat on March 4
1891, and it was while serving his term
as United States senator that he was
appointed to the United States Supreme
Court as associate justice as a Demo
crat, and took his seat March 10, 1894
Justice White is considered a man
well fitted by his long experience to
preside over the highest tribunal of the
land, is still comparatively young, as
ages go in the Supreme Court, and by
his judicial trend of thought is emf,
nently fitted to fill the high position
TO which he is called by the President
who recognizes this fact by going out
side the Republican party for his choice
