food, explore for miles an unsuitable
J tributary, then wander inland until it

lu this way three crocodiles once

confined their attention to the fish aud
an occasional duck no oue objected to
their presence, but when one of them
began to tuke sheep off the bank as
they came down to drink it was felt
that the sauriaas ought to be exter
minated. and an Englishman and bls
servant made the attempt.
Obtaining a dugout, they paddled
Into deep water. The servant was
already barefoot, and the Englishman
himself took off shoes and stockings,
so that his bare feet might have as
good a huld as possible on the smooth
bottom of lhe canoe. A bait was at
tached to a heavy rattan, and soon a
tug and a plunge Indented that the
crocodile was fast to one end. Im
mediately the canoe began to move
through the water. After a protracted
struggle the Engllshni;.n managed to
get the crocodile wltldn a few yards
of the canoe. At one moiueut the open

As the cna-odlle surged close to the
canoe and the open mouth appeared
above the water the aervaut slipped a
noose of stout cord over the upper Jaw
and pulled It tight some six luches be

with n quick turn of Ills wrist, he slip
ped the slack of the cord round under
the lower Jaw,
lie drew the cord
tight, and the teeth of each Jaw press

The servant now grasfied the point of
the long, narrow heud with one hand
and with the other rapidly wound th»
cord round the clinched mouth.
Another noose was slipped over a
fore leg. It pulled the leg up to th»
animal’s side. The servant slipped the
line over the creature's back aud
caught up the other fore leg. Then he
noosed and tied together the bind leg».

Into a trussed up mummy, and his only
weapon had been three pieces of box

The tieast was afterward dispatched,
and the servant received the govern
