killed forty-seven Indian natives and
all Englishman. Therefore she must
die, and the government of the central
provinces has offered double reward,
and the British officials at Sambalpur
have organized great hunt through
all the dark aud Wild jungles OF Am
habbana.
UAtll February, 1901, Soondargowry
was q pelceable tgrcss, leyying her
toll of cattle from tie jungle dwellcrs
along the Id river, two. perhaps tnree,
sometimes four cows n week or per
haps pair OF bullocks left In the field.
Her mate fell In November, 1908, killed
by the bullet from an express rifle, and
his glorious skin. measuring ten feet
three inches from tip to tip, went to
England as a trophy. Two months
after the big tiger was slain by the
white man hidden I'm the trcetop above
the carcass two cubs were born to
soondargowry, a male and a female,
ana sne was happy again
In February came black men who
dug a great hole In the ground In a
path through the jungle whittier Soon
dargowry went ON her way into the
valley to kin cows, and they covered
the great hole with bamboo poles and
threw over them a screen OF leaves and
light dirt and went away, and in the
bottom OF this hole they put little pet
pig, tied so that he squealed and
squealed, for the circus men had come
and wanted some tigers, and this was
trap.
When Soondargowry went into the
valley to hunt that day abe shifted at
the hole and drew back and passed on,
being wise and old, but later there
came her baby, frenzled by the shrleks
Of the pig and anxious to show that
he, too, could kill And, as all tigers
do. he crept forward, leaped toward
the pig and plunged down into the
deep pit, lying stunned and scared.
Men came-black men-and, looking
down, saw the little tigerlet whimper-
ing and running around at the bottom
OF the pit A moment later with a
crash soondargowry allghted among
them, raging and seeking her cub.
With one blow Of her paw she ripped
open the face and breast Of n man and
with her tail thrashing, stood over
him, while the others fed in terror
For an hour she roared and whimper-
ed, talking to her cub, and then hear
ing the men returning with guns she
roared a farewell TO her son, and, pick
ing up the carcass of the native in her
teeth, she leaped into the jungle, drag
ging II deep into the tangle to eat 1t.
From that day on Soondargowry be-
came n man eater and the terror OF a
district thirty miles long and ten miles
broad, and In that district in less than
year the government reports show
that she has taken n toll of forty-eight
lives out OF revenge for the loss Of her
cub. which is now with circus in
America.

contends for, by a tacit agreement on
the part of the public officials that the
speed limits may be ignored; or by an
amendment to the cOmpany's charter,
permitting a higher rate of speed.
From all considerations, the latter is
the most desirable. In giving the de-
sired relief, the legislature can place
about it such safeguards as the expert
ence gained from the operation of the
Rapid Transit, and the fuller knowl-
edge of the subject that is now attain
able than was attainable at the time
the charter was granted, suggests.
But one thing Is certain, the public
wants a better service than the Rapid
Transit Company is now giving, or than
it can give, if it's cars are never to be
allowed to go faster, at any time, or
any place, or under any circumstances,
than eight miles an hour in the BUSH
ness part of town, and twelve miles an
hour in the outside districts. Those are
the limits of speed of horse cars, not
trolley cars. The public wants faster
service than it is getting. There is no
reason why it should not have a faster
service.
1t may be true, as testified to by the
witnesses for the Territory yesterday,
that Car "A went at the rate of 10 miles
an hour for 400 feet. That is none too
fast to suit the public if it is safe.
Within the limits Of safety the public
wants as fast a speed as it can get. Let
the public insist that its representa-
tives in the. Legislature make it possible
to have a really first-class, rapid tran
sit service

visitor and resident alike the glorious

as the report says, there will be little

franchise bill the legislature should
make some provision,-as in fact it

that the enterprise contemplated by the
franchise is carried out within a rea-

that it has capital and means to pro-
coed in good faith, and not to get hold
of a valuable FRANCHISE merely for the
purpose of peddling it around, or SELL
