Jungle. Below ua the undergrowth was
lack and atllL for the moon had not
yet risen. Suddenly there waa a move
ment as though a portion of lta black
nees had detached itself from the real
and begun to creep away. Juat at that
moment tha moon rose and revealed to
ua the lithe body of a panther Blinking
through tha undergrowth. 'A shot rang
out and with a yelp of pain the panther
dlaappeared Into tba buahea.
' With tha sunrise we descended from
the platform and began to examine the
panther' a trail. Tha effect of the shot
was shown by tha patches ef blood oa
tha ground, which led aa through a cou
ple of hundred yarde of thick Jungle.
After crawling on handa and kneea un
der the brushwood wo reached a narrow
nullah. A UtUe beyond thla we came
upon the . wounded panther scaling a
tree. I fired, but the retire waa too
long and the ahot proved futile. The
dtaturbaaca had tha reault, however, of
atartllng the animal into falling from
the tree to the ground. : .
The ahikarl and I followed autckW on
lta, track. It led finally to a deen and
thickly wooded nullah, whloh had taken
the form of a horseshoe. Tha panther
entered the nullah at the center of the
bend and turned along the left arm,
growling angrily - as It covered - the
ground In heavy strldee. Wo kept about
30 yarde from the nullah and aklrted It
along the right until the top of the
oena was reacnea. - Here a. halt was
made, while I approached the nullah,
the panther growling away at tha other
ana. about 200 yarde distant

While tt waa predletad by aome that
the drydock Dewey would never be able
to pasa through portions of the Buea
canal, which are . only . slightly wider
than tha great dock, the aged head pilot
of the canal, A. Pap pa, knew differently, ' :
and It waa .his skill and caution whloh
made It possible for the Dewey to get

a satisfactory manner, according to a '

hundreds who have been dally outraged

woefully declare that the famine has
really reached Broadway and they are
reaching out to ether cities to recruit
their supply.
