HOW THE TIGER KILLS.
Never Faces His Prey. hut Attacks IL
ON the Flank,

I have taken considerable trouble to
find out how tigers kill large game.
Some time ago | was asked to come
and sec full grown bullock that had
been killed by tiger. On examining
1t | found the animal had its neck
broken. and there were claw marks
OH the nose and shoulder. but nowhere
else. There was no doubt that The
cd on the shoulder. and when the bull
turned his head to gore the tiger he
must have put his claw out and with
Il sudden jerk broken the neck
On another occasion went to see Il
young buffalo which had been killed by
tiger and found the same thing had
happened. There were similar marks
Oh the nose and also on the near shoul
der, which clearly indicated that this
animal had been killed in the same
way. Malays who have actually seen
tiger killing Il buffalo told me they
in dragging off Il heavy carcass, such
as buffalo or bull. he gets most of the
weight across his shoulder.
This must be fairly correct. as |
have often followed kill and the
marks left indicate that only portion
Of the animal was trailing along the
ground. have known full grown

dragged for two miles by Il tiger in II
heavy jungle. where roots of trees and
swamp had 10 be gone through In no
case have | seen the pug marks facing
the wrong way except when stopping
to feed. which proves he must carry I;
portion of the animal over his shoul-
der.
The old idea OF tiger killing large
game by blow from his paw is non
sense; besides. in India Il tiger never
faces his prey. but attacks him on the
flank unless charged. Another curious
! fact that may seem very like Il fairy
| tale is that Il tiger does not seem tc

time was unofficial, and as a false
start was made Hemery was asked to
90 over the course again. This he re
fused to do and was ruled out in con
sequence. But Marriott drove his
steam racer over the five mile course in
2 minutes Al seconds, and this was ac
cepted as the record. The previous
record was 3 minutes II seconds.
The achievement of Marriott proves
that the victory is not always to the
strong, for his machine is of small
horsepower as compared with Alfred
G. Vanderbilt's great go horsepower
racer. This car vas taken to Ormond
and entered for the races, but baked

a dozen French machinists tried to
make the motors work, but the vehicle
containing the strength of go horses
confined within its iron frame was as
obstinate as a mule, and, though its
multimillionaire owner paced the beach
and fumed at its r~eprehensible con
duct, all the kings horses and all the
kings men couldn't get the big 'choo-
choo'' to moving again.
The dangers of driving a racer at
about two miles a minute are not to be
scoffed at. TO begin with, the appear
ance of enc of these machines is
enough TO scare a person who is afraid
of being out after dark. 1t looks like
an inverted submarine boat on wheels,
and when spinning along at a mile in
half a minute the driver, with his au-
tomObile goggles over his eyes. could
readily be mistaken for the evil one
himself. Every race meet has its chap
