THE JUNGLE MAN.
rBy n. Quad.l


While I was hunting in the province
of Bengal with officers belonging to the
Seventh Native infantry. we got word
one day that a wild man had been seen
in a jungle ten miles away.
The man was a native who had
served for several years as soldier.
and he had a good military record ana
was known to be of peaceful dispose,
tion. One day, while on scout through
the forest with his company he was
bitten on the neck by spider The
wound gave him great pain, and he was
sent back to the hospital for treatment
He was under the surgeons care for
ten days. and was discharged as cured,
but one morning when at drill ne sud
denly began whooping and shouting and
acting in sin2lar manner. When his
comrades attempted to restrain him he
became violent. and casting them off he
bolted across the parade and down the
road He was pursued, but he gained
the forest. a mile away ahead Of all
and was successful in hiding himself.
A long search had been made for him
at the time, but without avail.
We 81 once moved across the coun-
try and located in village. and next
morning a dozen natives were sent out
on 2 scout. They were back BEIGE
noon with the news that the wild man
had moved his retreat about five miles
to the east. He was evidently afraid Of
us He had taken refuge in another
jungle. near another village. and we
broke camp and rode down to the place
and beat up the thickets for hours.
We caught sight OF the man once or
twice. but he was a long way off and

heard a commotion among the poultry.
Thinking = weasel was attacking his
chickens. he seized his hat and ran toward
the barn. Proceeding TO the chicken yard.
he was amazed to see q huge bird i'm
p]risoned in the wire netting which sur
rounded the space appOrtiOned to M pOuI-
try. On the ground lay several fowls
which had been killed. The farmer recog-
nized the invader as an eagle. and. run
ming 10 the harm, secured the neck-yOke
OF a wagon standing there and ~returned
10 the inclOsure. where he attacked the
bird. The eagle put up a great fight. and
HITLER was badly scratched by the birds
claws. BY being beaten in the face by
the birds huge wings he was unable to
approach close enough TO cope with his
antagonist. and he decided To change the
plan Of action. Running 10 the house. he
secured q rife. and with two shots killed
the bird.
Not until he brought il 10 the city this
