A SLAYER OF TIGERS.
Regulation an Englishman Has
Made In Annoy, China
Why Frank Leyburn's Name Is famed In
All Parts OF the Celestial Empire
How He Exterminated .
Big Beast.

Frank Leyburn is the hero of China
that is, he is one of the heroes, though
only tea buyer for the firm of Jardine
& Co., in Annoy, for he is famous as a
slayer OF tigers and as such is talked
of in all that part of the great empire.
The tiger of China, he thinks, is not so
dangerous as that of India, but 1t is
fierce enough. Mr.. Leyburn recently
arrived in San Francisco on his way to
London and gave some interesting de-
tails.
"With us, he said, "tiger hunting is
mere sport, just like deer stalking is
in America, but when tiger gets a
taste of human blood he at once be-
comes ferocious and is never satisfied
with any other diet. They become
transformed into what are known rs
man eaters. Such a one makes his lair
near village and waits his opportun-
ity to seize victim. Moonlight nights
suit him best At such time he is ex-
tremely vigilant. He prowls about I'M
til he sees some belated straggler in
the streets. This is an opportunity for
which he has waited for hours, perhaps
for days. There is the flash of heavy
body in the moonlight, a cry of terror,
brief struggle, and the man eater is
off for his lair in the jungle bearing the
helpless body of human being in his
massive jaws. Months later, it may be,
the whitened bones are found in the
dense underground.
lone day two natives came to me at
our place in Amboy, stating that a
man had been carried off the night be-
fore from a neighboring village. This
was just the opportunity had been
waiting for. Taking out heavy ex-
press rifle which | had brought from
London, l took the two natives to act
as guides and started out had al
ready learned something about the
habits of the man eater and knew just
how TO go about it. From inquiry
among the natives / ascertained the
exact location of the lair of the tiger,

to grow. There is but q small amount
of plant food in dry weeds, stalks or
coarse litter Of any kind; yet in q
majority of cases, everything Of this
kind should be plowed under. While
it may not add very materially to the
fertility, it will help to keep the soil
loose and friable, not only making II
easier to work, but affording better
opportunity for the roots of the plants
to penetrate it.

POruOise PIE.

Three-decker porpoise pie Is IN old
time whaling delicacy. 1t is made by
spreading the bottom Of a copper kettle
with duff" Upon this goes layer Of
porpoise in chunks, then layer Of duff,
and SO on until the name three-decker
is justified. The several strata are then
cooked together, and when the pie is
done it is cut in wedges. Each piece is
about a foot thick, and the share OF
each man is obtained by dividing three
hundred and sixty, the number of de-
grees ina circumference, by the number
of persons on board. The quotient rep
resents the number Of degrees to the

this morning from Watertown, whittier
they went to attend acommittee meeting
OF railroad projectors. The Sioux Falls
portion OF the gathering did not appear
at the meeting, but the WATERFOWL mem.
bers were none the less enthusiastic on
the project. The contemplated road 10
an extension OF the 500 from Hankinson,
N. D., which is ten or twelve miles north
Of the line between North and South
Dakota, to WATERFOWL southwark, pass
ing through Madison, Parker. Yankton,
and ultimately ON to the Cult. The Ca
madam Pacific is doubtless behind the
move as it and the 500 road are virtual
iy one. A representative OF these
roads was present and gave good
encouragement.
The route, southwark from Watertown
10 not fully developed yet and meeting
OF representatives OF the cities above
specified along this projected route ID to
be arranged for by d. I. Scott OF this
place, and called TO meet in Madison,
May 10, next, to learn what can be done
to encourage the building Of the road.
Here is a rare opportunity for Madison
and these other towns TO show their
mettle. Wstertown parties have already
secured the right ot-way and have a
profile survey, through the entire length
OF the reservation, a distance OF seventy
miles from Hankinson to WATERFOWL.
One WATERFOWL citizen OF ample means,
stands ready to give a bond to grade
the road the entire length through the
reservation, and the citizens there are
anxious to get information in regard to
the country in this direction, with which
they were entirely unacquainted. When
the situation was explained to them,
they were more than surprised at the
feasibility of the road and will be down
in force on the 10th to urge the benefits
OF this connection with the great lakes
and the sea-board, to this region. Ger
tainly Madison and Lake county could
secure q no more desirable road nor
could they find one which would be more
profitable in the long run. This city
and county ought not TO hesitate q min
ute in raising ten Or fifteen Thousand
dollars to secure right Of way. The
company behind the scheme win quickly
build and equip the road.
