THE TRUE VAMPlRE.
An Experience With the Blood suck
ing Animal In Indin.

CHANGING one evening to observe
rather large bat enter an clubhouse from
which there was no other egress than
BY the doorway, | was fortunate in be-
ing able 10 procure light and thus to
proceed to the capture of the animal.
Upon finding itself pursued it took
three or four turns around the apart
ment, when down dropped what at the
moment | supposed to be its young and
which | deposited in N.Y. handkerchief.
After a somewhat tedious chase / then
secured the object of my pursuit, which
proved to be fine female megaderma.
| then looked TO the other bat which /
had picked up and to my considerable
surprise found it TO be a small kind of
pipistreIle, which is exceedingly abun-
dant throughout India.
The individual now referred to was
feeble from loss of blood. which it was
evident the megaderma had been suck
ing from large and still bleeding
wound under and behind the ear. and
the very obviously suetorial form Of
the mouth of the megaderma was itself
sufficient to hint the strong probability
of such being the ease. During the
very short time that elapsed before
entered the clubhouse it did not appear
that the depredator had once alighted,
and | am satisfied that it sucked the
vital fluid from its victim as 1t flew,
having probably seized it on the wing,
and that 1t was seeking quiet nook
where it might devour the body at
leisure.
| kept both animals separate till next
morning when, procuringn convenient
cage, | first put in the megaderma, and
after observing it for some time |
placed the pipistrelle with it. No SOON
er was the latter perceived than the
other fastened upon it with the ferocity
of Il tiger, again Selling it behind the
ear and made several efforts TO fly off
with II; bat, finding it must needs stay
within the precincts of the cage it soon
hung by the hind legs to one side of its
prison and after sucking Its victim till
no more blood was left commenced de-
veuring it and soon left nothing but the
head and some portions of the limbs

Man is the best friend of the dog.
Horses come next, but between the dog
and all other farm animals, from the
house eat to the COW and the beef steer,
there seems to be n natural enmity.
Dogs, however, are fond of. sheep and
goats, but as diet, not as living friends.
Cows and sheep and goats should be
kept as free from association with dogs
as is possible, with the exception of the
trained shepherd dog. \ dog walking
through a cowpen will often cause a
decrease in milk flow that amounts to
more than the cash value of the dog.
Many dogs are worth considerably less
than nothing.
