brightness to throw the shadow of one s

off InUie roads at a distance of two
nnd a half to three miles. Now in the
dry season of the year when all the
rain water pools have dried up and the
salt water from the sea contaminates
all the water of the tidal creeks the
deer, hogs and tlgen, with which all
theso low lying Sunderbund Islands
abound, get hard pressed for drinking
water, and consequently nre not slow
to discover tho whereabouts of the re
serve tanks which have been dug In the
vicinity of the station.
So the lighthouse people, taking ad
vantage of this fact, do a little shikar
after nightfall, and for that purpose
havo built a small hiding place in the
shape of a loopholed mud hut on the
eastern edge of the tank, tho tank be
Ing between them and tho tea, and the
lighthouse being some 400 yards off.
Tho hut is Just large enough for two
men to stow themselves away in, and
the darker the night tho better for their
purpose. The deer, though naturally
timid animals, soon get used to the
regular bright flash of the beacon light
as the reflectors swing around and
around, nnd with cautious tread they
wend their way generally toward the
far edge of the tank
Meanwhile the two occupants of the
hut aro on tlio alert, and as they ob
serve their prey approach hardly dare
draw a breath for fear of the smallest
sound alarming them, for the deer havo
very acute hearing. Their guns are
grasped and ready, and their eyes are
eagerly watching the deer's cautious
advance toward the tank each time the
well timed flash lights up the dark
bodies. It nears the long coveted
draft and stretches forth its neck,
but Just as its famished lips are dipping
into the cool water there Is another
flash from tho light
Now is the moment for action, and
just as the timid creature raises its head
to stare at the light two triggers are

dark period has had time to swing
around again, and tlio- echoes of the
two gun reports have had time to come

puffs of smoke steal slowly away over

Hunting JIutlcraU nt Night.
There are three ways by which musk
rats are captured by shooting, by
trapping and by spearing. A few may
bo secured at night by creeping as
noiselessly as possible along the creek
edges and watching for theui to crawl
up on the bank to feed. In this they
aro very dainty. Having secured a fa
vorite root, they approach cautiously
the water's edgo and dip it in and rub
off tlio mud, dip it in again and again
until it Is perfectly clean and suited to
their taste, when it is eaten with evi
dent relish, provided the sportsman is
sufficiently interested in the process to
wait
A boat, however, is usually used, as
tho rata can bo more easily aud quietly
approached on the water. In this case
two persons occupy tho same boat, the
sportsman requiring a pusher. As this
sport can only bo engaged in at night
the sky must bo comparatively clear,
in order that tho hunter may havo tho
advantage of tho moonlight or, better
