ONE ROUND CONTEST

The usual dignifed peace which per-
vades the corridors of tho Capitol was
unCeremOniously disturbed yesterday
afternoon by a somewhat strenuous
personal collision between Deputy At
torney General W. S. Fleming and
Frank d. CreedOn, secretary to SeCre-
tary Carter, in charge of the Chinese
fund.
1t developed upon inquiry that no
great principles OF state were at stake
and the physical encounter was not the
outcome of any disturbance in eXccu-
tive circles or any controversy between
powers, parties or government depart
ments.
The crash was purely personal. The
gentlemen represented themselves
alone in the battle.
Aggrieved over alleged mlsrepre-
sensations one confronted the other
and asked an explanation. The other
aid not meet the views Of the first and
the war started.
CrecdOn states that Fleming made n
statement concerning him which was
not correct. tie says he confronted
Fleming with the fact Fleming denied
that any assertion he might have made
was false. OrCCdOu minated that
Fleming was prcyaricatOr, Or words

they wrestlcd to and fro, then broke

heavier swings Of Creedon were lodged

swiflly-moving arms of Creedon.

tinent brother. In India, also
the brown man learned to catch
the big pachyderm not by ones
or possibly twos, but by scores
and scores-an instance being
on record where a herd of eighty
five elephants was rounded up
at once. Elephant catching
stations conducted by the Indian
Government are scattered
throughout the country, and
there are some of the most eX-
pert elephant hunters assisted
by thousands of trained heaters
and crackers turn in an annual
catch of hundreds of these fine,
noble beasts.
EMPLOYMENT FOR AN ARMY.
An elephant roundup IN In
dia means work on a giant scale
and the employment of from
500 to 1900 men. Into the ele-
plant country marches this
army, crackers in front ready to
locate and report the game,
while in their wake come the
beaters and the white men on
horses and still others on the
kOomkies, or tame elephants,
that are to be used to capture
and tie their wild brethren.
Once herd has been found,
the beaters are detached and
sent out to surround the beasts.
Stealing noiselessly through the
ithicket. the men form sort of
human chain in a circle, a half
mile or more in diameter, Each
beaten is provided with a tom
tom or a blank shotgun, and
the moment it is seen that the
herd intends swerving toward
any one spot Of the circle the
heaters there set up an unearthly
din with their guns and yells
and tom toms, and, except in
very rare cases where the ami
mails have been frightened into
charging, they are driven to
the centre of the ring to await
the completion of the stockade
or khedda. wherein the final
capture is to take place.
While one detachment of
baaters holds the elephants in
place. another is at work day
and night building this khedda
ia ten foot high Enclosure of
stout limbs and tree trunks,
artfully concealed among the
thick Jungle SO that the unsus-
Ilecting creatures may be driven
! into it. after which they are cut
off by a gate. and may be cap
tured one by one by means of
the koomkies. Often it has
happened that in the excitement
of trying to break through the
stockade an elephant has fallen
and other elephant, using the
PROSTATE body as a stepping
stone. has escaped. Therefore,
it is necessary to dig a wide and
deep trench inside the fence and
hard against it while the minute
the herd is within the beaters
take their places at the outside
of the fence and their unearthly
din discourages charge against
any one part of the great fence.
TRAPPING THE ELEPHANT.
The stockade finished, the
herd is gently driven toward
the entrance, care being taken
that the animals are startled at
no time, fearing the tremendous
onslaught of a combined rush

they do they are unsatisfactory
specimens for a menagerie, be-
ing wild and excitable, and al
together unfliendly. Most Of
the cat animals seen nowadays
in our Zoos have been caught
when but mere cubs or when
only half grown. The easiest
way to capture the young of a
pair of lions or a tiger couple
would be to Stay the old beasts.
However. the wild animal man
has learned to be provident. He
never Stays or kills unless he
has to. In a limited sense he
looks upon every feline much as
a farmer looks at his cows-he
has an eye to the future. If he
kills the parents, likely he will
catch the cubs. On the other
hand if he steals the Young
ones while the parents are away
he has the chance of stealing a
second family of babies when he
calls at a future date to capture
desirable and sturdy specimens.
In this way one animal trapper
secured twenty eight cubs from
what he supposed was the same
parents within seven years.
THE CAREFUL ELEPHANT.
Among the Africans the fav-
orite method for hunting big
game is the pitfall. Even the
ponderous, gray sage, the ele-
plant, is taken by bridging a
long, deep hole with limbs and
and twigs, this method having
but two objections. In the first
place. the elephant is such a
pOnderOuS creature that when
he falls to the bottom of the pit.
even though this be heavily
lined with grass and brush. he
lands with such tremendous i'm
pact that he is likely to sustain
permanent and serious injury.
And, secondly. owing to the
necessity of providing a sure
footing for his immense weight,
the pachyderm is remarkably
cautious. often advancing sus-
| piciously and beating the ground
with his truck to sound whether
he may safely proceed-and the
shrewdest and most suspicious
thing on earth, according to ell
ephant hunters, is a suspicious
elephant.
Once an elephant has been
caught in a pitfall he IS obliged
to remain there for at least a
week while he is brought into
contact with man, and taught
that he has nothing to fear and
nothing but good to expect.
Big bales of the finest, sappiest
grass are thrown into the pit to
still the gnawing hunger Of the
unfortunate. Men come and
go, and he hears their talk and
feels them "shoo' the flies from
his thick skin to make him com
Portable, and he understands
that from them he receives his
food and his drink. In remark
ably few days it is possible for
an elephant expert to descend to
pay his prisoner a first visit,
and at the end of a week he may
be removed.
Nothing is easier than to take
a five ton elephant out of a pit
fall, be it ever so deep, The
work, although laborious, is
simple. An incline is dug to
bottom of the pit, and, this fin
ished, the beast is led out and
turned over to the animal agent
who buys him, leads him to the

that would sweep the entire
army before it were the elephants
to be frighted seriously. Once
within the stockade, a trap door
weighted with three OF four tons
of stones and boulders is dropped
into place. the koomkies are
driven within the inclosure, and
the first glimpse of the big
beasts to be caught is had at
close range.
An elephant at large is rather
a different picture from the fine
big fellows seen shifting their
weight from side to side and
swaying their trunks in menag-
cries. A wild elephant is a
gaunt. bony animal compared
with his captive brother. Also,
he is not a clean dark gray. He
is disgracefully plastered with
mud and leaves and grass, and
what patches Of his skin show
through the coat are consider
ably darker than when the hide
has been washed and groomed
by a menagerie keeper. The
next stepin securing the captives
is one dependent upon main
force. The tall. intelligent,
ponderous koomkies, with their
long tusks, guided by the white
turbaned mahouts, perform the
work with a grim satisfaction.
| An elephant is detached from
the rest Of the herd. and at once
a pair Of koomkies edge close to

lows, the elephant catchers APP

about the legs of the frighted
ones. In case of a sudden
charge, the men bob under the
belly of their own elephant OF

net of ropes strung from the
koomkie for that purpose. The

and it is the duty of this man tc
reconcile the heart of the noble
brute to captivity.

"HE LIFE of the modern


dangers and narrow escapes in
the forests and jungles in the
four quarters of the globe, and
his work includes the hunting
methods of the savages of every
cline and continent. How some
of the familiar captives seen in
our "Zoos" are caught is an in
teresting chapter, involving the
simplest and shrewdest trickery
of which only the invention of
primitive man is capable.
One of the simplest methods
of capturing ferocious beasts is
that used by the East Indian in
trapping a tiger. With news
of the coming of a wild animal
agent. the natives prepare to
hunt this huge, orange and
black striped cat, only four
sturdy men being necessary to
secure a man eater, providing
they know how. A fine speci
men having been located, it's
habits and watering places are
studied, and a ten foot hole, six
feet square, is dug and bridged
with a network of limbs and
branches and twigs and leaves,
a kid or a goat being tied in the
middle of the frail covering.
Aroused by the bleating of the
anxious bait, the old jungle
monarch is attracted, steals
nearer and nearer, and finally,
with a wide spring, lands upon
his prey, only to bear it with
him to the bottom of the pit.
He tries to scramble out, but
the steep walls lends no foot
hold. He tries to jump out, and
without a doubt would succeed
were the hole double as large in
area, but as it is he must spring
straight into the air in order to
land on top, and next morning
he is found, snarling madly,
outwitted, and once more to be
made the victim of a ruse.
CATCHING THE TIGER.
How to get the live tiger out
Of the pit is problem that
would puzzle any one but an
East Indian thoroughly acquain-
ted with the fierce temper Of the
dangerous brute. A net Of
heavy rope is procured, and this
is thrown into the hole. Like
a flash the ferocious cat is "all
over it at once" biting it, claw
ing it, tangling himself up in it
and biting and clawing the more
he gets tangled and becoming
tangled the more he fights, until
he lies securely bound, when
a hunter descends into the trap,
ties the mighty paws with rattan
rope, fastens collar about the
fine, thick neck, and proceeds to
haul out the grim captive, with
the help of three assistants.
Once landed, the animal is
placed in heavy wooden cage
mounted on wheels, after which
he is cut clear of nets and letters
and is hauled through the jungle
to market, where the white man
is ready to bargain and barter,
with calico and glass and brass
baubles, or, in more enlightened
settlements, with silver.
A curious incident is that one
of the largest and one of the
smallest of animals is caught
precisely in the same kind of
trap, for often the lion is caught
in what is practically giant
mouse trap. The trap consists
of cage provided with slid
inc door that will fall into place
