LIONS ESCAPE
PANIS IN ADDIS ABABA. (United Press Association —Copyright) ADDIS ABABA, Sept. 25. Five of the Emperor’s lions escaped from their cages and roamed the streets. They killed a man who sought to capture them, and entered a stable and killed two Arab horses. They then ate 12 sheep. The population was thrown into a stare of panic.
Two hundred Imperial guards began a big game hunt, and a fusillade of bullets killed the lions.
