NAVIGATING Lion.

The Living Animals of the World"
which Is so packed full OF anecdote and
lively descriptions of strange. as we'll as
familiar animals, gives an interesting ac-
count Of the terrible man-eating lions Of
Africa.
when lions grow old they are always
liable to become man-eaters. Finding their
strength failing them, and being no longer
able to hunt and pull down large antelopes
or zebras, they are driven by hunger to
killing small animals, such as porcupines,
and even tortoises, or they may visit a
native village and catch a goat or kill a
child or woman going for water; and find
ing a human being a very easy animal to
catch and kill, an old lion which has once
tasted human flesh will In all probability
continue to be a man-eater until he is
killed. On this subject, in his Missionary
Travels DIR. Livingston says: 'Man-eater
is invariably an old lion; and when he over
comes his fear OF man so far as to come to
villages for goats. the people remark. His
teeth are worn; he will soon kill men.
They at once acknowledge the necessity OF
instant action, and turn out to Kill him.
1t is the ~promptness with which measures
are taken by the greater part Of the natives
Of Southern Africa to put an end to any
lion which may take to eating men that
prevents these animals as a rule from be-
coming the formidable pests, which man
eating tigers appear to be in parts of India.
But man-eating lions in Africa are not
invariably old animals. One which killed
thirty-seven kGE4an beings in 1887. on the
Majili River, to the northwest of the Vic
toria Falls Of the Zambesi, was, when at
last he was killed. found to be an animal
In the prime Of life; whilst the celebrated
man-eaters Of the Tsavo River. in East
Africa, were also apparently strong. healthy
animals. These two m~an-eating lions
caused such CONSERVATION amongst the In
dia workmen on the Uganda Railway that
the work Of construction was considerably
retarded. the helpless coolies refusing to
remain any longer in a country where they
were liable to be eaten on any night by a
man-eating lion. Both these lions were at
last shot by one Of the engineers on the
railway (Mr. ]. II. Patterson. but not
before they had killed and devoured twenty
eight Indian coolies, and an unknown mum
