HOW TIGERS KILL THEIR PREY.
Some Commonly Accepted Theories Ex-
pl0ded By an Intrepld Obscrycr.

Some Commonly Accepted Theories TX
pioded by an Intrepid Observer.
AN observer has been among tigers
taking notes and has given the results
of his observations to the world. AS n
general rule, he is inclined to doubt the
truth of the commonly accepted theory
that the tiger, after lurking in ambush.
springs on the unexpected victim, and,
tearing savagcly at his throat, eagerly
drinks its blood This method of at
tack may sometimes be adopted, but it
is far more often the exception than the
rule. In approaching his prey the tiger
makes the best possible use of cover,
but when further concealrncnt is i'm
possible he will course deer or other
swift-footed animal with n quito ex-
traordinary turn of speed.
According to the account published bv
the Homeward Mail, sudden dash of
two hundred yards in the open is moth
ing uncommon, and the author mentions
the case of one tigress with whom he
says he was at one time quite intimate
ly acquainted, who used to catch hog or
deer almost daily on perfectly open
and burned-up plain. Small animals
are, for the most part, dispatched by
oloW Oi Ihc paw; Dut In the case OF the
more bulky the experienced tiger leap
ing on the back of his victim grips the
neck in front of the withers with his
jaws. one forepaw clasping the shout
der of the animal and the other fully
extended under the throat Should he
be unable to crush the spine with his
jaws he will then jerk the head bacl.
violently and thereby break the neck.
II have examined" he says, ''hun-
dreds of animals killed by tigers, and
have never yet detected injury to the
blood vessels of the throat, but invaria-
bly, marks attributable to the above
mentioned method" In removing his
prey the tiger frequently displays al
most phenomenal strength and activity.
In one case cited by the author a young
tigress leaped upon perpendicular
rock some six feet high with man
weighing nearly eleven stone in her
jaws, and on another occasion a male
tiger dragged an exceptionally large
buffalo up bank ct least ten feet high.
Whether these anecdotes accord or not
with the individual experiences of other
shikaris they arc at least an interesting
addition to the literature of the subject.

Platinum aud silver on the Sun.

Up to 1888 platinum had not as Yet

day." as well rs upon the earth. Tho

!tpays to keep posted On I lompson's


Last evening Miss Lillian Lewis an
peared at Harris Theater in Lawrence
Marston's version of LAS in Looking
Glass" The play is too we'll known to
require ,capitulation, and it is sulfi
Gent to say that this version is as ac-
ceptable as any other that has been
presented here. The dramatic ccnstruc-
ton is good and the climaxes we'll
worked up. Miss Lewis conception of
Lena DeSpard is conscientious, and her
performance indicates great degree of
versatility. n her portrayal Miss Lewis
shows Il decided Improvement over last
year, especially in those places where
transitions from mirth to pathos or deep
feeling are required. The comedy in
the first act is we'll rendered and she
carries her audience with her moods,
ana proves, indeed, charming Lena.
In the heavier parts of the roll Miss
Lewis shows mental power not alto
gether unexpected, which, combined
with handsome physique. enables her
to intelligibly and forcibly portray the
strong points contained in the drama.
Her work in the third act is not only
very strong, but extremely natural and
strikingly realistic. The same NAV be
said of the last act, where, a broIen-
hearted woman, she confesses her sin
and abandons herself to desolation and
despair. Miss Lewis's entire presen ia
ton is considered as excellent, and af-
fords her fine opportunity for the exer-
else of her undoubted emotional powers.
Mr. w. a. Whitecar gives efficient sup
port, and the same en- be said of the
entire cast, which shows company
above the average. "As in Looking
Glass" will be repeated at the matinee
this afternoon and to-nipht

The first span Of the Randolph street
overhead bridge was swung up on the
piers yesterday evening. About thirty
employees of the bridge works were on
the grounds directly after noon, and the
ponderous derrick which had been
erected day or Two ago, was attached
to one side Of span and gradually the
heavy iron work was drawn into posi-
ton.
the iron support between the piers
was erected in the forenoon. With the

All of the iron work is loaded on cars
