One fireman shot leopard and
a deer within one block of where
they were liberated. The police
chased a lion for blocks and
split its head with an axe after
they had emptied their revolvers
into the animal. In the height of
the excitement a huge baboon,
his fur afire, was slain as he rose
on his hind feet to do battle with
the firemen.
To add to the terrors of the
scene, thousands of small cart
ridges in the shooting galleries of
Dreamland exploded during the
fire and 1t is considered remark
able that a score of fatalities were
not occasioned by their discharge.
