Rocklin, May ?.— As it was entering Lakeview Tunn< I, No. 6, near Summit in the Blue Canjon district, the special train of Norris & Howe’s circus was wrecked yesterday and all of the wild animals engaged aboard the flat cars were given their liberty. All day long 300 heavily armed circus men and railroad employes roamed the snowy Wilds of the mountains in the vicinity and while they were successful, after some harrowing eocapes, in capturing the largest of the beast outlaws, a number of the animals are still at large. A lion, a lioness and a royal Bengal tigress were among the fer ocious brutes that escaped and tho incidents surrounding their capture were hair-raising. The entire coun tryside is terrorized and, despite the truthful report that the danger is prac tically over, the fright among the resi dents still exists. The lions were captured several hours after tbe wreck through the un precedented bravery of two animal trainers—Frank Hall and Herbert Rumley—but it was several hours be fore the tigress was finally roped, and then only after the beast had received ten bullet wounds. No fatalities oc curred, but in the battle with the tigress Manager Rowe was pounced upon by the animal and severely lac erated. His condition is not serious. The wreck occurred in a very pecu liar manner. The forward end of the train had entered the tunnel and the string of animal cars were passing into the shed when a supporting cable caught the corner of one of the cages and hurled the carsfromthe rails into the ditch. The cages were crushed into a space of two feet against the ■ide of the tunnel and rent apart, al lowing the jungle family its freedom. Then began the exciting times, for it was a battle between man and beast, with the beast at the advantageous end. LOCAL NOTES. Fred Coppie of Sterling vide was among us not long since.
