Nature paints in the most striking

HOME OF FALCONRY
The kirehiz Hunt Wolves and Foxes
With Great Golden EaoIes,

All wanderers are lovers of the
chase. but for sheer love of sport and
daring exploits the Kirghiz take the
palm. Central Asia is the home uf
falconry. which was not introduced
into Europe until the crusaders
brought back falcons with them from
their eastern wanderings But imagine
the ambition of the men who fly their
birds nj wolves and foxes instead of
at quails and partridges. Not content
with hunting game birds with small
falcons. the Kirghiz capture and train
the great golden eagles. with which
they hunt such game as gazelles. foxes
and even wolves.
A well mounted Kirghiz falconer.
carrying on his wrist one of these
magnificent birds. is fine sight. The
weight of the eagle Is such that the
owner requires a support for his wrist.
and the hunters are usually to be seen
with little wooden bracket that sup
ports the arm against the hip, The
eagles are hooded. as all falcons are.
but can be used only In winter. when
they are hungry and keen. In summer
they are fed on marmots and live
restful life, sitting in the sun In front
of the tent doors.
When gazelles or wolves are the OBJ
jects of the chase the eagles are aided
by long, sleek greyhounds of small
breed, the dogs running In and pulling
down the quarry when the eagles have
sufficiently bewildered It.-Wide World

A Sportsman Without Legs or Arms

Far and away the most interesting
member, and in many ways the most
remarkable man who has ever sat in
the House of Commons, was the
Right Hon. Arthur Kavanaugh. who
sat for Carlow from 1869 to 1880
under Conditions which would have
been impossible for almost any other
man.
Kavanaugh was born without arms
or legs-he was in fact a mere
trunk of a man. And yet he per-
formed a feat from which most men
with their full complement of mem
bers might well have shrunk.
Strapped on to his saddle. he was
one of the most skillful and daring
riders to hounds in all Ireland. On
one occasion. 1t is said "the saddle
turned under him, and the horse
trotted back to the stable-yard, with
his master hanging under him, his
hair sweeping the ground bleeding
profusely He merely cursed the
groom with emphatic volubility, had
himself more safely readjusted, and
rode out once more.
SO remarkable was the sight of
this pink yclad trunk, perched on
his big horse, that a child who once
saw him dashing out of a wood ran
shrieFing to her mother, exclaiming,
ooh, mummy, I've seen Satan him
self! I've seen hf- sure enough!'
Kavanaugh was also an enthusiasts
tic yachtsman, and was the first to
assert the rights of M. P.'s to moor
their craft OPT osite the Houses of
Parliament. He went on a shooting
expedition to Albania, and published
a charming book on his experiences.
illustrated with admirable photo
graphs taken by himself, while
among his favolite pastimes were
angling and tree-felling.
His most famous exploit. however.
was his ride from Norway to India.
Accompanied by two friends, he
rode across Russia to the Caspian
sea: thence to Astrakhan and Astra-
bad, - through Persia, laughing
at the perils and fat'gue of a jour
ney which might well have daunted
even the famous Colonel Burnaby.
Kavanaugh, who was the father of
four Ia, dsome sons and daughters,
all perfectly formed, was carried
into the House of Commons on the
back of an attendant; and was GER
tainly one OF the keenest and ablest
of legislators of his time.--London
