A GREAT HUNTING CHEETAH.
Animal Is the Property Of RaJah Bonn
madcNarn of India.

In India the wild beasts of the Jungle
are trained-a strangely incongruous
circumstance-to hunt in behalf of man
the tanner game of the forest, says the
Philadelphia Times.
Thechcetah is the animal used for this
purpose. He is strange beast, 1.-THE,
graceful, lcopard-lile creature belong
ing TO the eat family, but having when
tanned all the characteristics of dog
He hunts with the precision Of the best
OF deer hounds. principally tracking the
deer, though he is as able in running
down other animals.
He is affectionGte and obedient as a
dog, following his master about with
great fidelity, and obeying his slightest
command. When taken out for a hunt
he is usually blindfolded by a hood I'M
til the quarry is sighted, when the hood
is removed and he starts on his merci-
less Grand He never relents. often
trailing a deer for miles before finally
securing him. Usually, however, he ap-
proaches so noiselessly that he pounces
upon his prey without the slightest
warning and brings him 10 the earth in
short order.
The cheetah of Rajah BOmmadevara,
Nenkata Narasuntra Naidu Bahadur, is
the most renowned hunter in India, and
is so highly priced by his master that
1t is said he could not be bought for half
such principality as that over which
his master rules.
