Shooting Lions with Poisoned
Arrows.

Lions are occasionally killed by
Midgans. but the poison on the arrows
cannot be very strong, as frequently,
the lion seems to recover and get
0vay. Captain Swayne gives an ac-
count Of the way in which these Mid
gans hunt the oryx with their dogs
But to get on with my story. The
little Midgan carried bow nearly as
long as himself, and was followed by
about dozen small native dogs with
curly sterns and prick ears. These
little ours were wonderfully broken
The man trotted of in front of US,
and when he got near the place where
he had seen the lions he simply put
out his hand, and all the dogs lay
down in bunch and never attempted
to follow on after us. Then we stalked
carefully towards a big thorn tree ris-
ing above the bush. This was where
the lions were said to be. The bush
was very open, and when we came In
sight of the tree the lions were Just
decamping. There were four of them,
not flve-an old lioness and three
lions, perhaps not quite full grown,
and with very little name. Hassan
had followed close behind on his pony.
10 I shouted to him to try and keep
his eye on the lioness, and ran on my
self with Abdulla after one OF the
lions. This one did not seem much
inclined to run, and after short
burst | managed to get bullet into
him somewhere just as he disappeared
into some thick bushes.
At that moment we caught sight Of
another lion trotting along parallel to
us about 200 yards of. The wounded
one was keeping up continuous low
growing in the bushes. SO. thinking
he would not get far away. we ran to
cut of the other. He turned OF when
he caught sight of us. and we had
log, stern chase after him. as re-
suit Of which was so blown I could
not hit him. although he was lobbing
along not more than 100 yards ahead.
