ANTEATER NIPS BOY'S LEG
Albert Haine Gets Scare at Circus.
Xot Seriously Hurt.
Noah Webster evidently lacked
Information on the subject when he
declared anteaters were "any of sev
eral mammals which feed largely or
entirely on ants." Sometimes, it has
been learned, they feed on boys.
This was demonstrated yesterday
morning when Albert Haine, aged 10,
of 113 82d street, north, placed his
left leg a trifle too close to the cage
of an anteater In a circus holding
forth In Montavilla, and thereby lost
a small piece of flesh.
Albert, according to playmates, was
watching the animal when Webster's
definition was proved inadequate.
The animal stuck its long, pointed
head through the cage and took hold
of Albert's leg.
Albert was not seriously hurt
just a trifle scared and the merit of
this story rests In the fact that the
anteater that bit Albert was not
the same type of mammal that Noah
Webster wrote about.
