tho tree were the remains of q young

/ killed early in the day, eaten what he
could and then dragged the rest up the
tree, 90 as to be out Of the way Of vulturea
and jackals.
The next morning I took up the blood
trail, and about so yards of found the
panther under bush not big enough to
hide hare, yet neither nor my men had
seen him until we were all but on him.
One step more, and he must have sprung
on one Of us, when my lucky shot caught
him brrWeen the eyes.
Panthers are nasty, uncertain brutes and
can hide in any cover. Az rule, they will
attack you; but, while have seen some
charge home without provocatlon, have
seen an occasional one run like beaten
dog. Nothing would make him fight.
Twice I have seen them, when wounded,

without hitting tho rock. We tried to
tempt tho beast out by shaking turban
in front of the mouth Of the cave. All he
would do was to put out one fore leg. I
sent bullet through this, hoping to stop
him with tho second barrel as he went of,
but tho pace was too good, and missed
him; so did Colonel C. from below. l was
, not quite sure which was the most danger
GUS, for the colonel's bullets whizzei about
pretty freely among the rocks, but after
emptyinC my two rifles the panther sud-
denly appeared Oh the top Of the rock, 30
yards of, and came straight for me-
hurried up my reloadiDg Fortunately no
one moved, and when some four or five
yards distant the panther sat down and
roared until shot him dead.
On the other occasion, when the panther
charged, the cartridge damned, and could
neither get it in nor out. He did not,
however, come homo or wait till l could

Panthers stink away and hide SO easily
that many escape without being fired at. I
have killed many more tigers than PAN

more numerous of the two.

In few minutes>,N voice called out: "StOp
the beat! The tiger has gone" ! soon,
found that the tiger had walked past;
about 10 yardsyfrour my friends chaif, and
then jumped A. small water course behind.
Both he and hisoraerly were quietly asleep.
We changed our position lol beat the hill

Once while travelling alone near the
Jonk river Ilwas mat by an old Gond shi-
kari who had been out good deal with
me in better times. He pointed silently
to the footprint Of . huge bull buffalo in
the middle q my path, evidently quito
fresh. The track led parallel to my,road.
So dismounted, took the rife and signed
to the Oldham to lead on. After follow
ing for half . mile we saw large bull
buffalo with only one horn. He, too, saw
and heard. Us, and began paving and toss
ing up this ground, ut'>'ing a low, deep
hollow. The old Gontl was by this time
grovcling ut my feet, and said that the
bull had killel three men within the last
month, OR two. could not get broad

for certainty. Time pressed, us had still

were standing and climbing up tree on

He said it was quite Impossible and
meant certain death to HIM / then said
that we must both retire together; that,
too, was certain dcath-f0r one, or both.
However, he presently SAW that to climb
the tree was the lesser Of tho two evils, as
/ should check tho bulls charge. So.
mastering his courage and telling me
with his last words that he was going to-
his death, he ran acress yelling. Ho had
not 30 yards to go, while the bull had at
least 80. But the brute had evidently
been waiting for some ono to run, and
came out with rush at the first shout.
Tho old man was up his tree like monkey
well before the bull passed mo at a sallop,
about eight yards of. shot him clean
through the heart, but tho impetus of bis
rush carried him on for about 100 yards,
crashing through the jungle liko q trao-
ton engine let loose, till he fell dead
against u tail tree, which quiverod to the
very top. We were both glad to be over
that business. An old solitary bull Is a

brigade. Calling up detachment Of the
troopers, only 20 sa1ers in all, he led them
to the attack. Although the Jerseymen
were driven back, jackson soon found his
army cut of from Lee and Longstreet and
menaced on every hand by superior forces.
In this dilemma he sent Captain Randolph
with half his troop to bring Leo to the
scene. BY good fortune Randolph passed
the numerous Federal commands between
Manassas and the river, found Lee and
guided him by routes familiar in Jackson's
direction. All roads and passes were pick
eted by the Federals, and the party lay for
several hours one night close to the camp
Of Buford's Federal cavalry. Fortunately
for Lee his intrepid guides found a route

Very often what appear as trifling changes
to an owner involve other changes, often
far more costly than useful, and many
houses are ruined by foolish alterations. I
have seen thousands of dollars wasted in
this manner by those who could the least
afford the waste.
This design, however, is one which needs
no changing. 1t is as near perfection as
possible, and, as q cozy home on artistic,
sensible lines, stands as bright example.
Such houses as this are what educate the

Any good builder can estimate readily a

nearly enough to build another house left

quantities and did everything by guess

PERSPECTIVE VIEW.


tenn, however, is of no use to any one out
side the building fraternity, as to do this
correctly they must have practical knowl-
edge Of the different classes of buildings
and their values, and to obtain this long
practice, careful figuring and comparisons
with actual costs must be gone into. Also
proper allowances for extra charges for
costly enrichments and special materials
used in any Of the detailed parts must be
made, and these must be added to the
general cost over the cubed price.
The experienced architect who has done
a large amount Of work can always readily
get at the cost per foot, as he simply figures
up the space in his building and divides it
by the cost, and he has the price in cents
per cubic foot. Then he adds or deducts,
according to the finish employed, and gets
figures near enough for approximate cost
