kept a little staff , who turned out every

Tney nil oiuie from Nlonrngaan terri

these anxious to loam iholr appearance
and their ununora will find publlihod
uinturtal thiitls to say , I thluk no , for
our travoh tievor led us near tholr
country , and , personally , I know
nothing The Gaatnaos or Prauzoi
are ranch more savage , and no man
living Iu that day , I oionot tnll how It
b 3 no iv , could glvo serious lu fjrmatlon
regarding them.
A CMiplo of spears , one long and
ono akortor , made the equipment of
the tlgrorc. Their dogs , big , oloaohlug ,
light-colored animal * , wore ovldemly
rnUtod to the coyoto. Dingoroua
rnther thxn sivngp , not prone to bark ,
they pot form the role of honso doga
b.tdly. The Don assured us that pup-
pirn will not brk at all unless taught
oy others. Bat they learn nt OUCP ,
thus d.lFirtng from the thoroughbred
ooyoto , which cun only howl and
whimper in the Grat generation cf do-
muAticlly , and ooldom succeeds in
learning n true birk until the third.
Wo uakod why n dollar was granted
for ft slain puma , and but half for a
jaguar , uoelug that the latter animal la
much more dangerous and dostruatlvo
It appears that iu th. ) fathlon of hunt

the gron or lees of life. Tigreron go
in couple * , the head man In advance
with his two npoiUK. the subordinate
followiue with bla machete or ohoppiog
kulfo. The jagu&r Is oielly tracked ,
nrid ho dooa not go far when ronsad.
So soon as It ii thoronghly onvoyoc
to his mind that thoao intruders wish
to eco him personally ho turna with a
roar that always gives suiiiolont warn
ing to such practiced shikaris. A
moment nftorward ho comes trotting
up. The foremost Indian kneels ,
holding a spear In cither hand , the
long ono farthest out his oompauior
stands at the sldo. The jtguar tlooi
not pause , but gathering himself up
cleaves the s > .r in a mighty bound , hii
forelegs wide asnnder , and oiairi
hooked to rend. Yery seldom does il
happen that the long spear falls tc
trausGx his unprotected chest , or th <
whorter ono his throat.
Such Is not the puma's conduct
When disturbed , ho skulks awlftlj
through the brushwood , andoommoa
ly escapes. In following a jaguar dogi
are seldom hurt , for he disregard :
them , and they have n need to pres
him. But the puma turns constantly
massacres A bound , and speeds oi
again. Even If wounded ho la slow t <
stand ; but when brought to b y a
length U Is more deadly risk to faoi
him. For this combat the epears an
naeloss. Springing with his pawi
crossed th-j puma would dash then
wide. His feet firmly planted , kmf <
la his left hand , mscheto In hU right
the Indian stand forward. Ho h
oue blow In mld-alr. If It falls , 1
the skull be not cleft llko an apple
brute and man roll over in n hlduon
embraoo. At such n tlrao the com
rade seldom wanted in jaguar huntlui
would bo invaluablo. But when ui
Indian sets out Intentionally to traol
a paraa ho goes fclono. So did hi
fathers and so does he.
"Vory , very rarely a jicjuar spring
with his paws crossed , aud tlieii then
