Why the
Major Resigned
copyright, 1862, by c. 3. Lewis

copyright, 1862, by C. 3. Lewis.J
Major Clayton of the Tenth native
infantry. India, was very obstinate
man. One day while in his cups he
declared that he would spend three
nights in the jungle simply to prove
that the tiger was a much abused ami
NAL. What the major said when tight
he always backed up when sober. No
matter how drunk he got, he always
clearly remembered the subjects of
conversation.
Next day after his boast he made
ready to carry it out. He was in COM
mand at the post, and there was 10
superior to order him. The subordi-
nate officers, individually and collec-
lively, appealed to him not to expose
his life, but he was firm as rock.
II said l would do it, and do it l
WILL" was his reply. and it is Oil rec.
ord that he did do it.
Kurnool is near the foothills of the
Eastern mountains, in the province of
Madras, and tigers were as plentiful
in tie jungles rs dogs in the street.
In that same year the civil service re-
ported fifty-five people as having been
killed by tigers. A detail of fifteen
men was sent out distance of four
miles to cut path and make a little
cleENng. and before nightfall Major
Cla Nson rode to the spot. He had no
weapons of defense ard no tent. He
simply proposed to sit at the foct of
tree all night and take his chances.
1t is still looked upon in India as
the biggest fooi thing ever indulged in
by white man. Aside from tigers,
the jungle was infested with pan,hers.
hyenas and cobvas, and there did not
seem to be one chance in ten thousand
that the major would come off with
his life. He did. though. He not only
passed one night in the jungle, but
three nights. AID he came out Of
it without scratch. While he made
light of the dancers there was no doubt
that his cour;."e had been severely
tested. He admitted that tigers and
panthers had prowled about within a
few yards of him and that he had
fought hyenas with club, but he was
inclined to hold the situation in con-
tempt.
Unfortunately for Major Clayton, the
papers published the details of his dar-
1ls feat. and the brigadier at Mysore
thus became acquainted with them.
He forwarded Il sharp reprimand. back
ed by a threat. and the pig headed
major defended his position in re-
port. This brought about a breach,
and the culprit was suspended from
duty pending an investigation. He
might possibly have pulled through
again but for his own further actions.
he returned to the jungle and passed
A0prth night and then boldly an
ICED in the public prints his belief
mat no white man in India had ever
peen killed 10y wild beast. In the
course of couple of weeks he got the
PHernative of handing in his resigna-

On the great highway runnins from
kurnool to Bellary. Cuddopah end My
sore, as on other highways of India,
there are government bungalows for
the use Of travellers. They are simply
shelters, as every person must furnish
his own food and bedding. Major
Clayton had started to ride to Bellary
and at midnight took up his quarters
in bungalow. He had servant with
him, and there We're several other trav-
elers and their servants. 1t was a
bright moonlight night, and after the
evening meal the major and four other
men, all of whom We're civilians and
acquainted with his case, sat on the
veranda smoking.
The former officer was rather bitter
against the military authorities. as
may be supposed. and would not ad-
NIT that he had put himself in a false
position. He thought a hungry hyena
might attack helpless or sleeping
man at night, but that neither tiger
nor panther could be brought to do it,
All his arguments and contentious
were at variance with established
facts, and his fellow travellers COM
hated them. and the dispute waXed
hot. They were all talking in loud
tones and the major had Just ex
pressed his contempt for ali statis-
tics when Il tiger left the cover Of y
bush under which he must have been
crouching for some time and advanced
at a Slow trOt across open ground
directly upon the men Oh the vc-
randa. His action was so bold :i:a: he
was taken for dog There wee two
men on each side of the major. but as
the beast came on it leaped upon the
veranda. seized Tie former soGier ny
the right shoulder and had turned to
leap to the ground with him before
any one suspected his identity. Then
one man kicked him and unotie,
grabbed him by the tail. while i thiru
broke Il chair over his head. The tiger
grOwled and shook his victim, but
would not let so. When seized. the
ma jOr cried out:
MY God. it's tiger, and l have
been all wrong
Those were his only words. In
few seconds the beast had him ON the
ground and was galloping off with
him. Guns We're fired. and men shout
ed and ran after the beast. but he
paid no attention to them He leaped
a ditch six feet wide. sprang over
fence. and after run of hundred
rods over open ground he reached the
jungle and disappeared. Next morn.
ing pursuit was made. or. rather ar
investigation. About 200 feet from
the edge of the jungle what was left
of the majors body after the tiger
had satisfied his hunger was found
and buried, and that was the end of
the man and his theories. His cour-
age no one could gainsay, and that his
death should come from the beast be

are conceded 1t is pointed out. how
ever that the accuracy of the census
figures. now that the crop is grown
and being ginned, does not give war
rant for reflection on the figures of the
department of agriculture, which are
promulgated while the crop is being
grown and are, therefore, merely esti-
mates. 1t is a significant fact that
the census bureau declines to assume
responsibility for its estimates of the
amount of cotton yet to be ginned,
thus preventing comparison between
those estimates and the estimates OF
the agricultural department.
The promised statement from Sta
tistician Hyde is being held back by
the delay on the part of the investi-
eating committee, which has not yet
made public it's report.
