HABITS OF THE JACUAR.
Interesting Chapter on the Most Stealthy and Ferocious
 of Felines.

The trails of the jaguar are many, but they nearly all lead to river, for water appears to be more needful to the tiger than to any other member of the cat fam fly. And this is not that he ac- tually drinks more. so far as I can learn, says awriter in Outing, but rather because along the water ways he finds an easy and abund ant food in the river hog, in the small deer that come down to drink and in the fish that swim plentifully in all these streams.
 In the Rio de Ia Plata, just off Buenos Ayfes, Is an island where at one time number of jaguars lived and thrived practically on the fish they caught, for there was nothing else on the island, and none ever heard of their visiting the mainland, because of it's set tlement and not on account of the distance to shore, for the tiger is a strong, bold swimmer and minds no river of South America, not the widest, if he wishes to reach the opposite bank. He is patient, un erring fisherman, watching for long periods from some vantage point, which may be either fallen tree trunk extending into the stream or at the banks edge, until a victim appears-when with a lightning blow he hurls the fish out on to the bank or clutches 1t as he swims past.
 While the swampy jungle and the water courses are his habitat, yet the jaguar will make incur sions upon dry ground if cattle or horses or poultry offer, and river food happens to be scarce or for the time being more difficult to SC cure. 1 heard several trustworthy accounts of cattle and colts killed by the jaguar, though his rayages are not so frequent as once they were owing to his further inland habitat. His method of killing animals of this size is literally to -tail them up wind, that no scent may reach the victim, and then to spring on their back, fastening tee h and claws in the neck; with smaller animals the Jagual SD. ings for the neck at once, and appears to prefer the hind quarters 70 the stomach, which is left for the vultures that are omnlpresen' n the open country.
 Tiorc is much noisier animal
 than any other of the feline ram
 ily, particularly at night, ano eoams the jungle disdalnfui o' other beasts in his manlfest suPe iority. And he is without doup' bsolute king ofthe South aiflcat
