INTERESTING SPORT.


Various Methods Of Destroyins Alligator
Prscticed In Ceyloa.
The tanks near our tents in Ccylon
aboundcd in alligators, which came
ashore to bask in the sun, all their heads
turned towards the water except the
watcher, whose face was turned land
wards. When he gave the signal Of
danger there was general stampede
into the tank. They were so numerous
that we did not think them worth pow
der and ball. and their horny hides
made it more trouble to kill them than
they were worth. Once, when we were
walking home, / saw my friend. who
was walking parallel to myself on the
other side OF the tank, which was about
fifty yards broad. take shot Mt an ALI
gator right in front of him; an instant
afterward heard the ball crash into the
branches of q tree under which was
walking. 1t had been DETECTED at right
angles from the reptiles back. and l
had narrow escape in consequence.
There is method of catching alliga-
tors which l once saw practiced in the
southern part of the island. which af-
fords some sport to those who are indif-
ferent to the suffering it entails. You
take a live puppy. and strap him on to a
raft. formed of two pieces of tough
wood dashed in the form of a cross.
You sharpen all the four points of this
cross and fasten it to a hank of Irvine q
yard long; to this you attach a rope.
You then float your puppy, who is call
ing attention to his unhappy prediea-
ment by yelping loudly, on a still pool
or backwater of the stream, and tie
the end of the rope to a tree. You
then see that your revolver is handy,
and, with half dozen or more natives.
you sit under the tree and watch. In a
few moments pair of enormous jaws
appear above the surface of the water,
the puppy disappears into the water, but
they do not close with the faculty with
which they are opened, for the cross
has struck into the brute's throat, and
the strands of the hank of Irvine have
got between his teeth. You now lay on
the rope with q will, and slowly draw
the reluctant monster to shore, while
he lashes the water with his tail in an
impotent rage. When you have got
him on shore you keep at respectful
distance, and make ball-practice with
your revolver at his eye. If You keep
on doing this long enough you finally
kill him.
The alligators in some Of the rivers of
Ceylon are SO vOraciOus and numerous
that the natives, who are very fond of
bathing. stake off their bathing places.
From these strong-holds you can safely
taunt an alligator, should he come and
poke his nose between the bars, and
sniff your flavor-even jObbing at it with
a knife. Near the mouth of the rivers l
have had places pointed out to me by
the natives where they said it was safe
to bathc. as the water was too salt for
the alligators, and too fresh for the
sharks. NV impression is. had l made
the experiment that should have found
them both there.-LGwrenc Oiphamt.

could send me there, too." -Rocheste,

How Doctor Experimental for the Benz
1T of Generous Employers.

There seems to be q conspiracy be-
tween two hens, horse, and the dog
of a South Windham farmer to deprive
him of his rights in eggs. One of the
hens daily lays an egg in the dog house
and the dog daily eats it. The other
hen lays her egg in the horses manger
and he eats it. Indeed, so fond is the
steed of fresh eggs that he sometimes
lifts the hen OH the nest to see if the egg
has been laid Hartford Post.

were almost overwhelmed with min gled

plans thus to miscarry? Never. while
they were two to one, and that one did
not see them, and their knives were
sharp. So on they stealthily crept.
They were just on the edge of a steep
descent when they saw their expected
victim drop his hammer. In another
second he was erect and facing them,
and another man was with him, and
both had their rifles 1T their shoulders
