Kansas. Tuesday, August 27, 1936 THE BMPOEIA DAILY GAZETTE Seven 1 CLYDE BEATTY AND HIS ANIMALS HERE THURSDAY Clyde Beatty and hl3 lions and tigers. Beatty Is the most talked of animal trainer In the world and presents with his own circus one of the greatest collections of wild beasts ever assembled. Few who see wild animals In cages realize the vast amount of danger and expense neces- to get them there. The greatest danger lies In capturing the wild animals in their native country.

With Cole Brothers-Clyde Beatty circus, which will give two performances in Emporia Thursday on the Katy grounds, there are several hundred wild animals, most of which were captured in the forests and jungles of their native country. "There is no more ticklish or dangerous task than tracking lions in she vast Nubian deserts," said Beatty. "The scorching sun pours down with such force that few men can stcnd it. The effect on the eyes is blinding. There Is little or no shade.

The wariest and most careful hunter may be tracking an animal and at tha same time be tracked by the animal he is seeking. which may spring on him at any moment. "For capturing iull-grown lions, large traps of various forms are used. One trap Is square, one of the sides lifting upon a spring like the old-fashioned mouse trap. The trap Is baited with a piece of fresh meat and as soon as the lion has entered the trap the door shuts down and he Is a prisoner.

More than a score of lions with our circus were captured in this manner. "Elephants are generally caught in nooses. A number of men surround the elephant after they have previously formed a circle of fire about the beast. The fire gets closer and closer to the elephant, and finally a noose is thrown over his head. He is then securely tied to a tree and allowed to remato there until quiet.

Tame elephants then are brought Into use and ap- News from Neighboring Towns MERRY WORKERS MEET. Special to Tha Gazette: Allen, Aug. Merry Workers farm unit met at the home of Mrs. Charles Day Friday afternoon. The lesson was presented by Mrs.
