to the aummona, but rotitlnued to dart
about In the gran, enapplng and

To the aurprlne i.f the thole party
the tiger turned tall and fld from the

of a wild t born of ahrleki a the play

buahea In a garden adjoining the court.
By thla time a dozen other men armed
with rlflea had joined In the chaae.
The bull terrier had atuck clone to
the heela of the man-eater, an I by hla
barking directed them to the beaat'

bearded the tiger, but tbia time at

them of a tiger that had neled and

to be the Jalna tiger, with a broken

and with the bull terrier to acent the

drove the tiger out of no trie thick cover
Into a clump of buahea, and then fol
