We were passing through a kind of glen formed by lumpy, moss covered rocks and overhanging trees that sprang up and behind them, when I heard the soft crackling of twigs underfoot ot a hubltant of the Jungle. It seemed to come from very near the trail and a little off to the left. I de cided to inVestlgate. Without making the mistake Ginglss had made when he spotted his over- ago tiger, I said absolutely noth ing, and simply swung my feet out of the chair and slid off the elephant's back. I landed upright in the tall grass with surprisingly little noise and took about two short steps forward. Crouching low in that position for at least three or four minutes, I decided it must have been my Imagina tion and wus just about to throw the rifle over my shoulder when my Number One Boy to my left let out a scream, "Suhibi-Suhlbl" I flinched and pulled my gun around at the same time Just to see the boy's spear flash through the air toward a point a little above and In back of me. I shot a glance toward the low branches of the heuvy Jungle oak, and there she was 130 pounds of leopard, claws unsheathed and ready to spring less than six feet away with nothing between us but the clearest kind of space when I fired. She was in the air when the bullet struck; I could see it jerk her head back. Almost at the same time there was a sharp crack from Tony's gun. Ho hud crept behind me. And then the huge beast crashed at my feet lifeless. "UNGISS, Tony and I wore ex " amlnlng the leopard when I heard, directly behind me, a mew ing sound like that of a smull kit J. C.

I grabbed my gun, lock ing it at the same time, ready for action. The native boys had al reudy raised their spears, poised for the kill but nothing hap pened. We waited that way for fully a couple of minutes when the sound was repeuted. This time it was louder and I could tell It came from an animal; however, I forged steudily forward and under the thick vinelike growth for about five or six yards, half on my stomuch, half on my hands and knees. I was about to give it up as a false alurm when I no ticed Just ahead of me a caveliko opening. I pushed aside the branches and foliage and there In a pocket of a huge gray rock sprawled three baby leopards, sound asleep. They were within six feet or where I stood, and my first feel ing was one of bittor disappoint ment: I didn't have nfy camel's. I was cursing softly to myself when I realized I was out hunt ing leopards that's why I was here in the jungle and practi cally within my very grasp were three of the finest prizes a man could possibly find; evidently the cubs of the mother I had just killed in self-defense. ... .: . ... T HAD my rifle In my hand but, knowing I wouldn't need It for these kittens, I laid it down and signaled for Ginglss and Tony to come near, I figured we would ouch of us creep up very quietly and grab one of them. The naUve boys knew something was up by this time and they circled back to see what It was. Just as they ar rived I sprang Into the cave and caught one of the cubs in my hands. Tho other two let out yips and tried to scramble out of reach, but Ginglss and Tony had followed my example, and in a mutter of a few seconds we were standing In a group, panting and laughing, each of us with a star tled and shivering baby leopard in our arms.
