palisades ten or twelve feet in dame
ter. Another large circle is formed in
the same way outside the other, leav-
ing space of a foot and half be-
tween the two. In the onter circle a
small door is made ola width equal to
the space between the circles. A goat
or calf is tied to post in the center
and the door is opened so that'it stands
across the space between the circle.
The tiger comes aud walks around the
outer circle till he finds the entrance.
He enters, and walks around the space
till he meets TIE open door, which lie
pushes back into its place. The space
s too narrow for him to turn round or
exert his great strength, and lie con-
times to walk round and round till
morning. when he is easily killed; and
the bait extricated unhurt.
