Carolina. 4 -g Sixteen hundred sightseers at ns Salisbury last week were regaled a- with a feature not advertised, or even thouht of. A real lion hunt. a n One of the advertised features at the ty Yadkin valley fair was the Johnny st J. Jones Trained Wild Aninmal Show. -g and one of the principal acts on the program was the feat performed by Capt. Curley Wilson. who feeds raw - se meat from his lips to Romeo, a tiain Ls ed lion. The act is generally success ke fully performed, but on this occasiou . .ld some young man. one,of the visitor< to the show had been imbibin. too y freelv in the. red lemonade sold at ts the fair. who on beholding the lion se nust have fancied "that he had to them'" for with all the precipitation ad he was capable of. he flew against the cage, dislodging one of the stakes n' that held the door in place, seeing ta, the open door, the lion jumped from ~ his pedestal, knocked down his keep an er, flew through the open door and ran as he has not done in years. In .n the meanwhile the spectators all i sought the nearest means of exit. .'Old men who seemed unable to move, ] IS jumped from the seats .like boys of he- 12. some crawled under the sidewalls, hothers ran through the back of the tent, some climbed up to 'the 'top 'of] the large arena. It was a circus right. ~Romeo in the meanwhile tore through 1the fair midway, the people- cleared of the road. The second race' was about he to start. Romeo leaped across the a- fence and with one spring he was dacross the track. Side by side with . uthe horses. Such a sight was never to witnessed before. The horses were to panic stricken. .Sueh time was never ( a made before. It was the greatest race ever seen. Romeo soon, how- ti never, tired of this. Too tame a sport b ad for him. He was out to enjoy his t 's freedom after 15. years of captivity. j ts He outdistanced his pursuers wich a a numbered at least two thousand, men rs women and children. He maae for a a o stretch of woods across the railroad to track and was soon out of sight. Ospt. t as Wilson, 'his trainer, and Johnny J. c i Jones, his owner, were both excited n- and overcome, Searchers went out to 11 htrace him, but 'the hours passed and s "no word f-rom him. The manage "' ment were sorely troubled, nightfall f< d, and still nothing doing. All night d b long the men sought him, without any s er results. Tired and worn out the hun- a L' ters returned, a reward of $50 was re 'offered for hi sreturn but nobody is 'i claimed it. Next morning with the c ibreak; of day Capt. Wilson wvent to s a feed the baby lions and imagine his s-- surprise to find Romeo lying quiet S 0- and harmless under the cage in which C P three baby lions was confine'd and at s 4a word from his trainer. he rose, ~ s stretched himself lazily and as if, nothing had happened, :he stepped up e a'nd eyed the captain with such a C as pleading look that he was forgiven. 9 i The captain grabbed him by his bushy ~ kemane, mounted on his back and rode -is him back to his cage, which he enter- C in ed as if nothing had happened. and. a a as soon as he was locked in he bega t.s to bellow for his breakfast, which he1 in certainly ate with a relish, five te pounds of raw beef. Congratulations et were in order. and the show went on id as usual.
