”somethrillinguiigperienoes in this
out. Some time ago he wrote the
Kinshasa from Singapore about a hunt
.‘ocwture tigers alive. Among other
" things he wrote:
”Although the island of Singapore is
my fourteen miles in extent. there are
no less than 500 tigers in its woods.
IndpeOple here do not venture alone be-
;yond the city limits after nightfall.
‘The first night after my arrival here.
while our ship lay in the harbor, Ieould
- laiuly hear the roaring of the blood-
irsty beasts as they prowled around
outskirts of the city in search of
. M. de Silva, the native agent,
having located several tigers‘ trails. we
started on foot with about fifty natives
. the following morning. The trip to the
first tiger trail was only three or four
miles. and we arrived at this point at
about 8 o'clock.
"After locating the trail exactly, and
finding the stream to which the tiger
_ must break for water each night on
, awakening from his all-day sleep—the
habit of the tiger-we set about making
. our preparations. In the direct path of
‘the tiger we dug a pit seven feet wide,
ten feet long, and fifteen feet deep, but
uch longer and .wider at the bottom
an at the top.
“All the dirt dug from the pit was
carefully removed to a considerable dis-
tance by the natives, and they shOWed
external evidence of the fact that a big
hole had been dug. A lot of bamboo
.. strips were next laid over the pit, and
these. covered with dry leaves. made to
appear like the general surroundings.
“We next took three ‘ bamboo sticks
about twelve feet in length and placed
them in the form of atripod, in such a
polsition as to bring the point of the tric
directly above the centre of the pit.
F m the top of the bamboo sticks
me of the natives suspended a live
t by a cord barely strong enough to
ar its weight. and sure to break if the
.
g in readiness for Mr. Tiger. as
n as he chose to go against our little
. game, Mr. de Silva and myself, as well
as the natives, repaired to a but about
eighty rods distant and awaited devel-
0pments. It had been dark about an
hour, and I began to think we were go-
ing to be disappointed, when one of the
natives rushed into the hut, crying:
“ ‘Lend me a beshma.‘
, “The furious cries of the tiger bad
tartled ‘him as with a lcrriIic roar it
prong upon the suspendcd goat. and,
going down with its burden. sank into
the merciless pit prepartcd for it. Ig-
niting a number of torches both to light
the way and to forestall any attack that
might possibly be made upon us by wild
animals. we proceeded in a body to the
pit. The roars of the tiger were awful,
5 he furiously tried to leap upward to
gain his freedom. As I have already ex—
plained to you. the sides of the pit
slanted inward toward the top. and at
every effort the tiger could be heard
striking his nose against the loose
earth.
"This frantic behavior was kcpt u
for about an hour. when, entirely ex-
hausted. the fierce king of the jungle
lay perfectly quiet at the bottom of the
pit. Two of the natives now lowered a
bamboo basket down into the pit. letting
the open side fall directly ovcr the su-
ine form of the tiger. lnnncdiutely
fter this a number of nativcs jumped
into the pit and began crowding,r rattan
withes through the sand beneath
the tiger and bringing them around the
basket. In this manner the rigor was
in a few minutes completely incloscd in
the bamboo basket.
“Returning to the but. no awaited
the dawn. and as soon as it appeared the
natives wont back to tho pit and lifted
the basket containing the tiger out of
it. We detailed ten of the cmdies to
take our captive to the city. Before
they started I took a lurk at our prize
through the rattan withcs. Ho was a
magnificent specimen. but the conical:-
looking tiger l cvcr saw. lie was cov-
ered with blood from his frantic ctforts
to get out of the pit, and the skin was
peeled from his nose and face. while the
eyes were almost cntircly closed by tho
swollen l'ucc." Var-H'an l"l‘lllll‘lr~‘(‘n( ‘hroniclu.
