A TRUE LION STOKY.
. "The lion is in the kraal and has
killed another ox ! " A rude and some
what startling awakening , this ! And
on a Sunday morning , too , as early as
11 o'clock a. m. ! I eat up in my stretca-
, cr , and gazed towards the open door ,
I where my good missionary host stood ,
' candle in hand , and bearer of Informa
tion such as always gives real pleasure
, ( o the "big-game" sportsman , no mat
ter however much he may regret the
loss of ox , horse , or donkey , which so
often serves cs the introductory price
to his majesty , "felis leo. "
The Bcene cf action was a mission
station on the borders of the Mashiko-
lurabwe country , and some sixteen
miles to the west of the Kafukwe riv
er In south latitude 15 degrees 53 min
utes. I was returning from a journey
of exploration among the Mashiko-
lumbwe come four days earlier , and
had been tempted to sojourn a few days
with my friends , Messrs. Buckenham
and Baldwin , in order to do battle with
a man-eating lion which three weeks
before had taken up his quarters in the
neighborhood , and had been living
right merrily on the natives ever since.
Mr. Baldwin had given me a list of
this lion's bag , from which it was evi
dent that the animal did not shun the
habitations of man , and was particular
ly predisposed in favor of the gentler
sex a trait in his character which went
far to bring about his ruin.
On Jan. 28 , 189G , a woman was seized
and carried off from juot outside the
village stockade , and was no more seen
or heard of. On the 20th the animal
visited the mission cattle kraal. His
appearance caused a general stampede
among the oxen and donkeys inside ,
which broke through the palisade and
tore off in the darkness In all direc
tions. On this , of course , all that was
left for King Leo to do was to take his
pick and retire with his spoil to the
entanglement of thorns at the hack o
the station , which ( to man ) impenetra
ble fastness he had chosen as his head
quarters. He selected an ox , as it hap
pened , and decamped with the beef.
The 30th was a red-letter day in his
career. In the daytime he annexed a
sheep , a lamb , and a goat , and there
fore It Is to be assumed -he was not
suffering from hunger when light gave
place to darkness. He must thus have
been either a very keeii sportsman or
an enthusiast in his devotion to the fair
sex , or he would not have pawed aside
the wicker door of a native but , walked
inside , and abducted a sleeping female
from the bosom of her family. And
yet he did. On the morrow he does not
seem to have gone abroad , but on the
following night , Feb. 1 , he varied his
menu with a donkey from the mission
kraal which had belonged to me some
few weeks previously. Then four days'
res.t , till on the 5th he purloined a second
end donkey , and was no more heard of
till Sunday , the 9th , when he died by
violence. And this is how it came
about : To jump into a pair of trous
ers and place a couple of cartridges in
to my 16-bore was only a matter of a
moment , as soon as the alarm was giv-
I'jll" '

LOOKING AT MR. BALDWIN ,
en. My plau was to approach the kraal
and try to get a shot at the lion with
the aid of bluelights , which I carried
with me in anticipation of such emer
gencies as the present. Mr. Baldwin at
once volunteered to accompany uie , and
armed himself with a Martini rifle.
Then repairing to the "boj's * " fire , I
explained my plans and called for a vol
unteer to hold the light which would
enable me to get a suitable vievof my
quarry. The African native does not
show a great amount of enthusiasm for
lion-hunting even by daylight , so I con
fess to being very agreeably surprised
when three boys offered to join us in
the attack my Bainangwato boy , Le-
charn , a Mashikolumbwe youth of
about 18 , and a Maukoya who had re
cently entered my service. The re
mainder preferred the warm glow of
their camp fire. As the Mashikolumb
we seemed to me to exhibit most calm
ness of demeanor , I intrusted him with
the blue light , with instructions to keep
close behind my right shoulder , and to
hold the light aloft after I had ignited
the fuse ; the other two prolonged the
line to the right , with Mr. Baldwin on
their flank. And thus we advanced
elowly into the" darkness until within
some thirty paces of the cattle kraal ,
when we were pulled up sharp by the
sound of an angry growl from our un
seen enemy. I Immediately applied
the striker to the fuse once twice
thrice , but still only a faint glimmer of
light came. The fuse was a bad one
and refused to ignite. Another growl ,
and then others in quick succession as
the lion advanced straight for us. The
night vras cloudy and pitch dark , so no
thing could be seen of the brute as he
disputed our right to the ox he had
killed. To retreat would have been
fatal , so lowering my rifle I stood my
ground and waited until such time as
the dark outline of his form should
become visible , when tvvo hardened
elongated bullets would I hoped give
him his "quietus. " Fortunately the
boys remained firm , for their retreat
might have emboldened the lion to sub
stitute active attack for what was ap- ;
parently mere bluff. lie must have' '
been within six feet when his growl- ,
ings ceased and all became quiet again.
A second light responded to the strik
er , and lit up the kraal and its sur
roundings. The enemy had decamped
and taken covert iu the scrub beyond.
We then retraced our steps , and smoked
a pipe In order to give his majesty
time to think over matters and return
to his meat.
In about half an hour's time we re
turned to the attack. As we neared the
kraal another low growl greeted us. J ,
struck a light , and as I did so the Ma-
shikolumbwe boy told me he saw the
lion standing near al ! ant-heap close ;
by the kraal. I looked , and saw two
dark objects one on either side of the ,
ant-heap. To th * left , what I took for
a bush as it seemed much too large
for a lion was all I could see ; to the
right , what might easily be a crouch
ing lion attracted my notice. I fired at
the latter the light went out , and all
was quiet. Another light revealed the
smaller object still there , and it is so
still for all I know but the larger one
had disappeared. I had fired at the
wrong one !
The next attempt only gave us a
glimpse as his body glided to covert
from behind the kraal. He evidently
didn't mean to give us another chance
that night , so we decided to retire to
rest but not to sleep and make a fur
ther attempt at grey dawn , in the hope
of getting a'shot before he had reached
the impenetrable bush behind the sta
tion , where it would be impossible to
get a | him.
Yet once more Mr. Baldwin called me
from the world of sleep as he opened
the door of the hut. This time , how
ever , he said nothing , but looked a
great deal. I uttered one short but
expressive syllable as I realized that
the sun was already high in the heav
ens , and the chance of coming up v/ith
the lion very remote indeed. The ani
mal , Mr. Baldwin told me , had actually
eaten his way through stakes as thick
as a man's arm in order to gain en
trance to the kraal. He had , of course ,
dragged away the carcass , and must
ere this have reached his lair. We
fcund , as the boys had reported to Mr.
Baldwin , that a hole had been eaten
through the palisade , and at the far
side a larger opening through which
the surviving terrified animals had
made their escape. A groove in the
sandy soil showed the line along which
the carcass had been dragged. Accom
panied by three boys , we followed the
spoor until , after traversing some five
hundred yards only , we came upon the
remains of the ox lying at the entrance
of a tunnel through dense thorn bush.
No lion was to bo seen , though there
was but little doubt that the marauder
was within a few yards of his prey. A
growl soon disclosed his whereabouts ,
and as it came from behind a wall of
bush only a few paces in front , I fired
at where I calculated the animal stood ,
fearing that he would not venture into
the open with so much covert at his
disposal. There being no response or
sound of movement , I left Mr. Baldwin
and the boys and commenced to skirt
the wall of thorn with the object of
attacking him in his retreat. I had
reached the ox , from which I was sep
arated by a few thorns , when an ab
normally large lion cantered down the
"tunnel , " and stood for a moment look
ing at Mr. Baldwin. The bush would
not allow me to get my rifle round be
fore the lion , catching sight of me
not two yards from him for the first
lime , turned round and trotted back to
covert. I then continued the flanking
movement , until a brownish back
ground , beyond a small opening in the
thorns , arrested my advance , and I
could determine whether I saw a small
piece of lion or of an ant-heap or bark-
less tree. A movement of a dark spot ,
after I had been watching for some
seconds , told me that what I had in
front of me must be the lion , aud that
the spot must be his nose or his ear ,
either cf which , according as he was
facing me or standing side-ways , made
an excellent bull's eye for a brain shot.
I raised my rifle and took a careful
aim a report a sudden movement of
the fawn mass and all was still again.
On examining the carcass it was found
that the bullet had passed up the right
nostril and through the brain crashing
through the atlas vertebra and resting
under the skin. Measurement' showed
him to be much above the average , his
length from muzzle to tip of tail being
9 feet 10 inches , and his standing
height , taken between assegais , from
the pads of his heels to the shoulder
points , just 43 inches. In shoulder
measurement only one larger saems to
have been bagged one shot by Mr.
Selous , which scaled 44 inches. His
mane , unfortunately , left much to be
desired. With the aid of a long pole
and several natives he was carried into
the station. There was great rejoicing
among the natives that Sunday morn
ing , who congregated in large numbers
and finished up by eating the carcass of
their fallen foe , notwithstanding the
fact that two of their women-folk were
entombed therein. A. S. II. Gibbous.
A Wonderful Old Ittau.
When Sir Henry Irving produced the
"Story of Waterloo" for the first time
at Bi'istol , he was , of course , made up
to represent the last stage of senile de
crepitude. An old gentleman in a box
was much interested iu the perform
ance , and kept on exclaiming in an
undertone , "Well , I had no idea that
he was as old ns that. " When the play
was finished he said to his companions ,
very solemnly : "Well , they talk about
the queen , and they talk about Glad
stone as wonderful old people , but look
at this man. Why , he must be older
than any of them , and here he is going
tlirou&'Ii t'la fatigue of acting nightly ,
traveling all over the country , and at
the top cf his profession. That is
soinetli'p like a grand old man. " No
one liked to explain for fear of laugh
ing , and it was left for Sir Henry's
subsequent appearance In "The Bells"
to remove the error.
