Peculiar Hunting.

; Philadelphia Times.
From the earliest times hunting has
formed the foremost amusement of all
nations. One of the strangest methods
pursued is that of coursing with the
hunting leopard, or cheetah, as it is
usually called. This sport is peculiar
to India, and the native princes en-
brace every opportunity to engage In it.
This animal, like the tiger, ounce and
panther, is member of the cat family,
but it differs slightly from the rest of
its kind in having larger and narrower
feet, and claws that are blunter and
less curved. Another distinguishing
characteristic is the great length of it's
legs, whiehsfits it for taking its prey by
running rather than by 1eaping, as in
many other species of the feline family.
1t is about the size of the leopard, but
with heavier and more compact body,
and is marked in somewhat the same
manner, with beautiful spots covering
its body, dark bands circIing its tail and
a name. 1t is found in Senegal, South
Africa, Persia, India, Sumatra and as
far north as the Caspian sea. In cap
tivity it soon becomes tame and displays
many of the traits of the domestic cat.
The manner Of hunting with the
cheetah is very interesting. The ami
NAL is carried upon an odd-loOking con-
triyance called hackery to a locality
where antelope or deer are known to
mere platform placed on wheels. which
elevate it about three feet above the
ground. and is drawn by a pair of oxen
yOked to rude pole set in the same
way as wagon shaft.
A hood is placed over the cheetah's
head, and cord slipped around his
neck, one end of which is secured to
ring set in the rear of the hackery.
AS soon as herd of antelopes is sight
ed both the hood and the leash are re-
moved, and the animal stands at liberty
on the platform, with Its tail toward the
driver, Glanclng quickly about him be
spies the game, and bounding from the
platform he rushes toward it. If the
herd halts he crOucheS low and craWlS
along the ground. sprlnging forward
the instant his quarry moves away.
Generally speaking, the appearance
of the cheetah seems to paralyZe the
antelopes, and in very short time they
are at his mercy. He inStinctively Sc
lects a fat buck, and launching
his body forward fastens his fangs
in the neck or shoulders of the
DGdSl, UIlllS 1t tlOiCIllly W tUt
ground, where he quickly dispatches it
by tearing open Its throat and sucking
its blood. The driver, who also acts as
keeper, hastens forward as quickly as
possible, and, replacing the hood On the
animals head, takes the carcass away.
He then conveys the cheetah to the
hackery, where he is again leashed
until another herd is sighted.
Very often the cheetah gets sulky be-
cause he is so quickly deprived of his
prey but the ey s a OF eoax
ness in very short order. Thus, during
days coursing, one cheetah may Sc
cure several deer.
If unsuccessful in catching a deer, he
does not follow the herd, but, with his
tail hanging low, trots back to his
keeper and seems to feel keenly disap-
pointed at the result of his efforts.

Rise, Fall and Rise Of Jay

The First Began the Building
Of the Northern Pacific
Railroad.
The Other Made the Great
Road an Assured Sue
cess.
Sketches Of Their Busy Lives
and Their Magnificent
Homes.

The receivers of the banking firm Of
Jay Cooke & Co., of Philadelphia, have
just announced their readiness to pay
the last dividend to the creditors of that
house, and thus at the same time close
the trust they have managed and ring
down the curtain on the last act of one
of the most interesting dramas pro-
duced by the development of the ma
terial resources of this country. The
building of the Northern Pacific rail
was one of the most stupendous of the
many large undertakings in the era OF
great achievements.
1t took an excessive amount of faith
and courage to believe in the undertake
ing, and the even moderately conserva
tive people in the financial world were
inclined to look upon those who were
firm believers as Numerically sanguine
in their anticipations and foolhardy in
their hopeful courage. In the history
of the building of this great road, the
completion of which has already given
several states to the Union. there are
two men whose names will always be
more prominent than any 0thers-Jay
Cooke and Henry Willard, One of these
began the construction of the road and
the other finished it.
A crisis in the affairs of the great
company administered at different times
by these men brought each of them face
to face with personal ruin. and on each
occasion the disturbance to credits and

confronted with such serious meas
ure, enforcing an absolute, exact and
honest valuation. The belief that no
appeal on valuations will be al
lowed from the decisions of the
customs authorities increases the
discomfort, despite the fact that
the American legation here long
ago notified the French government OF
the insertion of provisions by the Amer
lean senate for appeals from such de-
cisionS. The president of the French
budget committee advocates CONNER
cial treaty with the United States, to
take effect in 1892, when France Will
have regained her economic liberty.
The chamber of commerce has sent
petition to the government, asking that
it try to secure delay of two months i'll
the time of enforcing the provisions OF
the customs administrative bill. The
petition also requests the government to
open negotiations with the other Euro
pean powers for the holding OF con-
gress to adopt measures for the protec-
ton of the export trade of Europe
against the provisions of the bill.

this narrow escape will be renowned

Miss Annie Tichenor, the beautiful
daughter of Colonel James N. Tichenor,
of Montague county, is the gay lady's

camping-out excursion up the
valley of the Little WashIta river.
A party composed of two sisters, Miss
Tichenor and three young gentlemen,

took weeks trip in prairie schooners
up the valley in search of health and
pleasure. One night they camped in
narrow ravine, which ran at right
angles to the river. They had picketed
their horses and built the camp fire to
prepare supper. when Annie, with her
brothers rifle on her arm, sanntered up
the gully to see whence it Lead.
A few score yards from the wagon

herself in little canyon with rocky
walls extending thirty or forty feet on

Which the Sun Never Sets.
Great Divide
Webster's eloquent description of the
British Empire is very readable, but we
doubt whether 1t is generally realized
that we, too, have dominion on which
the sun never sets. 1t will hardly be
believed. perhaps, without an examina-
ton of the maps, that San Francisco.
instead of being the west line of this
dominion, is only about midway be-
tween our eastern and western limits,
and yet it is fact that the furthest
Aleutian isle acquired in our purchase
of Russian America, is as far to the
west of that city as Eastport. Me-, is
to the east of it. Between the north
west limit of Washington territory and
the southern limit of Alaska there is a
break of few degrees, but with the
slightest reduction our territory extends

years ago to seek his fortune. Being
man of some education and no special
training, he drifted from one 0ccupa-.
ton to another until he at length found
his vocation. At one time he was
reporter, and, doubtless, at that period
Of his life added much to the mental
equipment he had brought with him
from the Fatherland. 1t was not long
after he became railroad man that ne
was known in the Northwest as a person.
of large ideas and great audacity i'll the
conception of schemes for the CONSOLE
dation of kindred interests under one
management.
In successfully carrying out such pro.
jects he in very few years got control
of the Northern Pacific railroad, ana
with wonderful energy he worked for
its completion. He scared cautious IN
vestors out of theiI wits. but the world
seemed to go we'll with him, and for
year or so before the railroad was
finished he was accorded the commence
which success compels. During thats
time he built a palace for himself In
New York and purchased large prop
erty up the Hudson river, near D0DDs
Ferry, in the famous and romantic
neighborhood of Tarrytown.
When the reckoning came after the
completion of the road, and when MI:
Willard was compelled to disclose all
that he had done in raising the money
required to build the great railway, ne
was obliged to part with his city palace,
but the Hudson river property being IN
his wife's name he held on to that, ana
now that he is again at the head OF the
great corporation this country place is
his home, and magnificent home it is.
High above the Hudson, where it
bends and broadens. Mr.. Willard has
built most elegant home. The roads
all about have been improved by him SO
that they are always hard and clean,
and he can drive for miles, and so can
his neighbors for that matter, upon
pavements which he has made up hill
aud down dale, through forests and
fields. From point OF land at MS
gates and just before entering the forest
in which his house is situated one can
see the summer houses here percned
for miles up and down and across the
river. There is not hill in sight una,
dOrned by splendid mansion, ana
standing there it is easy to realize that
the rich people of America are more
and more making their real homes IN
the country rather than in town. Amer
lean cities change so rapidly that no
sooner does a person get comfortably
settled in house than the neighborhood
so changes that his home is untenable
or needed for something else. There
are few more splendid homes than MI.
Wizards. and if he really now have the
wheel of fortune tasty locked with
himself on top we may expect before
this generation passes away that the

siderable in the social world as has been
