Teddy,s Huntino crounds.

Teddy's Hunting Grounds.
In the dry bush plains, the myster-
ious jungles, and impenetrable for
ests of British East Africa, where
Theodore Roosevelt and the Smithso-
MAN African Expedition will soon pc
gin the search for specimens for the
National Museum at Washington,
there is a variety of big game and
smaller mammals that makes this the
most wonderful shooting ground in
the world.
Hours before the American party
reach h JULIA ranch, a score of miles
north of Nairobi, where the expedi-
ton will make it's headquarters, game
will be sighted as the train makes
its tortuous way along the Uganda
railroad. There is no shooting allow
ed within a mile of the railroad, and
the sight of herds of graceful mpala
antelope Or the massive Gland grazing
along the line within only a few miles
of the coast, serves to whe h appe-
tite for the "safari," or hunt, to come
in the interior. Their is game all
along the line of the Uganda Railway,
but hunters generally go to Nairobi.
some three hundred miles inland.
Passing tSimba, where lions may be
found, the railroad enters the Maxim
du district, a rare shooting country.
1t is to the north of JULIA ranch,
though, hat all kinds of big game
abound. A flock of vultures, soaring
in the air, tells of a lion roaming on
the dusty plain. These birds wait to
pick the bones of the lions kill. The
country is alive with lions, but few
fear them, is they give man a wide
berth at all times. Only when wound
ed and escape is disputed will the
King of beasts show fight. All thru
the night the cry of the lion may be
heard in this territory, n it is no I'm
common thing for a party of these
beasts to sit outside of a house all
night and roar. Skins of ions that
have not been SCARED in combat with
foes Or torn in breaking through the
thorny u~nderbrush are rare. Having
obtained a good lion skin the hunters
guard it carefully from the ravages
of the white ant, which will destroy a
skin in a night. The lion prefers the
plain where his yellow hide does not
contrast with the brush and under,
growth.
In point of danger the natives OF
this territory regard the buffalo herds
as the most dangerous to encounter,
and h a travelling party of port
ers will scarce notice the roars of a
lion, the sounds of a buffalo herd will
sen them into a panic. This much
dreaded beast is tricky and brave, and
a huntsman needs all his skill
to make his kill. Wounded, the buffa-

the brush, tempting the huntsman to
follow him. Wheeling suddenly about

coming hunter, who unless sends a
bullet into the brain of the beast, is
most likely to be gored and tramp1ed
to death under the animals hoofs.
In hunting the buffalo it is customary
for the hunter to post his shikaris in
the tree tops to inform him of the
troll of the beast.
The hunting of elephants is much
restricted in the territody which the
Roosevelt party will cover and the
killing of these mammonths is regard
ed as little less than slaughter. Mod
ern rifles make the killing of ele-
plants easy to accomplish, and with
out much danger to the hunter.
Hunting for hippopotamii is also linn
tied, as the animal is hard to locate,
and only found in remote places along
the rivers and lakes. The hippo is
timid and not considered dangerous
unless his escape to the water is cut
off or he is wounded.
The hunt for the rhinoceros in this
region is no mean venture, for not in
frequently the hunter is hunted, and
the angered beast breaks UP a whole
"safari" party with one of his terri
BILE charges. The "rhino" is very near
sighted, but is possessed with a re-
markable sense of smell and acute

The charging animal can only be halt

No hunters a eyer be said to have
enjoyed all the experiences of the At
jungle without an adventure
with wild dogs, which roam in packs
and are the dread of the natives. The
cry of these animals is not unlike that
of leopards or smaller game, and
nce heard the natives fly to the tops
of trees. These mongrel dogs have
low bodies covered with thick bushy
hair. A hunter wounding a wild dog
must, according to the ethics of the
chase pursue and kill the wounded ca
nine.
There is hunting all the year round
in British East Africa, but the season
of the big rains" from h end OF
January to the e2d of April, is not
one generally chosen by the hunter.
There is also a short rainy spell about
October and November which, how
ever, is not regarded as an obstacle
to hunting.
