Nio: A TERRIBLE MOMENT. T had itist RMoiiied my rosriment in Iudi i, tlio Forty -second Iligl.inilors, bet- tcr cnown as lliis JSiacx vnicn, auur a year of sick k.-.ve in Kuropo, mid was seated in my friend Majo .McGregor's coo", and comfoi table bungalow, gossip ing over all that had oueiin-eil in tno i-iiriw Aliek Fanpiliarson, one of tho Inver- eatild Favipiharsons, strolled in with the, to me, pleasing intelligence of "Tiger." "15y Jove, that old slukarrce, what-you-inay-eall-'ein I never can recollect his name has smelt tho beast, and the Colonel is for getting up a grand hunt, for tho purpose of bagging tho brute and tho skin; tho latter for Urn. " mentioning a lady's name, the owner whereof well, I will not repeat the story." "Deil tako tho Colonel, grumbled Sandy Mcl'licrson. who spoke witn as strong a Scotch accent as liny "hraw ..i,:,.i" i.nvtb of the Tweed: "he's n' tho time speenu about tigers and var mint, and if one o' tho laddies kills a beastie, down ho pops on him for the skin." "It would be awfully jolly to cut out this hunting expedition," I suggested. "And how?" demanded Fanpiliarson. ".lust to beat mi a low beaters, get out to the 3ungle,and iiot the Wast while X..e7cle tlie coiouei m uuii-nug, possible lliudoostanee." "15y Jupiter Olympus! I'm with you!" cried Farquharson; "but wo must start right away, for I heard Old Hagpipes" Ttho irreverent title by which our commanding ollicer was known, acquired from the fact of his ordering tho pipers nf iho corns to ulav at chotohassiiy, alias luncheon, and dinner, till the mess was fairly "skirted" to death "telling Gordon to look up tho guns." "Wo shall start now !" I cried. "I have brought out a capital pair of doublo qarreled breech-loaders, smooth bore tho Prince of "Wales brought down a slag of ten tyno with ono of them at Mar Forest this season and a Snyder." 'Then I'll look up tho beaters and old what-do-you-call-'cin, tho shikarree'said 1 nrquiiarson now huddled together and held council in low whispers, their heads close, their eyes directed to tho jungle, their burn ished bodies .n attitudes suggestive of instant flight. Tho shikarreo ordered us to beat that section of tho jungle on our Immediate right as being the iiiostdense,and where, in all probability, tho tiger was now en joying a post-prandial nap, good diges tion having waited upon appetite, Tho boaters were accordingly assem bled,aud Farquharson look tho near side, whilo I took tho other. With a sharp glance at our gunlocks, and a general hitch to garinents,wo pro pared to go into action "I say, old fellow," pleaded mv com- panioii-iu-arms, "wont you givo mo tho hrst shotT Its my tiger-potting, you know." "Cert.iinlv.Farouharsoii i I'll nivo vou tho wholo thing. I shall only lire in caso of accident." Littlo did I imagino that my words ,vero so soon to bo proved prophetic. In a few seconds tho beaters began to yell in chorus, and to lire bamboo-rockets, anil I can imagine how disgusted tho tiger must have been to have his siesta so strangely and so rudely broken upon. "IIow thoso chaps do yell," laughed Farquharson. "Keep vour eve on (ho jungle, Alick I growled, "and let them roar as much as thev like." 1 had been in a "tightbox" before now bv haviiiL' mv attention diverted from business at what strategists aro pleased In liirm the iiavc.holoi'lcal moment. Not a siiin ha'd tho titter yet given of his presence. Not a blade of the long iuiit:lo crass stirred, save when a rocket lim-d into it. settintr it on lire. The beaters were silent, a signal for tho shikarree. who held up his hand, while his head was perched on one side lilro that of a bird, in tho attitude of listening. "Hush 1" Then camo the unmistakable cough (generally called a roar) of a tiger. I glanced at Aliek to ascertain how the music agieed with him. He had paled a little,but his eyes wto Hashing ami Ins lips eoin'Jiessed, "Wo have him!" ho excitedly cried. "Not yet, old boy. There's many a slip between tho cup and lip," I re torted. "lie cannot escape." "Not if we can help il, but if he's lodia bagh a game-killing tiger we mav lose him yet." There is, in my opinion, only one variety of tiger, although the animal, like all others' that 1 am acquainted with, is subject to a slight variation ot ap pearance that may be more or less ac counted for bv his peculiar habits, which varv according to tho locality and nature of tlio country ho ranges over. In many uni ts of India over which I have hunted the natives recognize three kinds of tigers; ice, and I icsolved lo save tho poor fellow, if I could.

My heart gavo 0110 beat backward as 1 raised tho weapon to my shoulder 1 aimed at tlio sidoot the head, and tho bullet went from car to ear. The shot was mortal; tho dark blood rushed from tho tiger's nostrils a slight tremor passed over all his limbs, and ho rolled ott, Alick Farquharson then scrambled up to his feet, very white, with his left arm besmeared with blood. His iirst words wero "Hy.Iovel that was a shot. We've done old Hagpipes out of tho skin 1" I don't know how it was, but I Hung myself on the young fellows neck, and hardened sinner that 1 was, hurst into tears likoa woman. It was rather lucky I didn't feel that way half a minute before, wasn t ltT Aliek's wounds were not (langeroiis,and ho was all right 111 n few days. Colonel "Old liagpines" endeavored to nibble thoskin.but Faioiiharson didn't see it, and it now,I believe, decorates the grand old nail nt lnvcrcauld which, ns everybody knows, is the next residence to Queen Victoria's Highland homo Jialmoral. Tlio huge brute was eight feet eight inches long, including the tail, which was three feet 111 length. 1 havo potted two man-eaters since that memorable day, but I hopo never to realize so terrible an experience as that which Aliek Farquharson's rash ness so happily or unhappily afforded me. Japanese, Clilldrvn lives chictly upon domestic cattle : and thirdly, the admec khanc wallah.or man eater, which latter, happily, ore few and far between. A singlo tiger will kill a bullock or buffalo every live days, if he gois tho chance, often eating the hindquarter the Hist night, and hiding the remainder in a bush to consume at his leisure. 'Should ho havo been Hied at,or disturbed on his return to his quaiuy, he becomes cunning, and a great deal more destruc tive, killing a fresh bullock whenever ho wants food : and I havo known tigers that havo become so suspicious that they would not return to an animal they Had killed, although they had only lapped the blood, nnu tho bullock was almost un touched. On tho other hand, I havo known a tim.p retiirnitiL' dav after day to tho car cass of the ox ho had killed, and picking an, notwithstanding ho had been twice tired at by a native sni karree. Hut to return to mv adventure. Tho shikarreo suddenly gavo a low "coo" twice, which told 1110 that he had gotten 011 a warm scent. Suddenly I heard a slight noiso like the crackling of a dry leaf. I distinctly saw a move ment or waving in the high grass, us if tho tiger was making its way toward us. . . Then I heard a loud purring sound, nml Haw somethintr twitching backward mnl forward lust behind a clump of low brush and long grass, about forty yards off. "IIo's there!" I cried in a low tone, to Alick, but without moving my eyes. "I know it. I'lio Japanese children have to endure hardships from their birth. 11 their tiny houaesaro 110 bright,cheerlul lires,no easy chairs,no well spread tables,arouud which your family gather and hold sweet con verse. You must stoop to enter the culi nary houses, and their rooms nro not much larger than closets. A part of the lloor is covered with mats on which they sit and sleep. A block of wood four inches high hollowed a littlo at the top, answers as a pillow, Sometimes it has stulliiiig on top an inch thick over which a clean pieco of paper is spread each time it is used, to save any needful washing. The head poised on this pillow, prevents the disarrangement ot tho hair, so that it need not bejeomoed more than 01100 or twice a week. But the poor babies' and little children's heads aro shaved entirely or have from one to live tufts of hair left on tho top over each ear and on tho back. I havo. seen little babies with heads entirely shaven and uncovered 011 tho coldest day, whilo tho mother or per, son on whoso back it was carried had tho face and head covered, only the eyes and noso visible. Dr. Hepburn says: "only very strongbabies survive their infancy." Japaneso houses havo only paper win dows; they havo no stoves or grates, but a little box, from one to two feet square, with some coal in tho centre, is all they have for warmth or cooking. Two or llireo cups, ns many plates, a tea-pot, a kettle and some boxes toholiMheir cioin- ... I- . Mi .1... mg, complete their iuruuure. jvii ine houses 1 havo seen aro very clean, which their only appearance ot comiort. iltlo children arc often made to tako care of tho baby, A very common sight is a littlo boy or girl, from live to twelve yours old, playing with a kite, with a baby strapped on their baous,iasi asleep, but sometimes crying. In tho latter case, they only say, "lie quiet, nnd go on with their play. But Japanese children seldom cry or quarrel and aro very obo dicnt to parents aud teachers, whom they venerate. I nm this morning with nothing at all in the boat except tho thing. "Have you got mm in the boat! 1 asked. 'Yes; don't yer want lo come down nnd seo hinvt" I followed him down to the end of tho wharf, and preceding us went his fisher companion, a lad ot about seventeen. Tlio boat lav moored to tho bulkhead, and up above on tho wharf, under ashed, sat half n dozen negro women with their babtes, watting lor tho next sleumiioai. Tho boy, with an animated grin, ran down tho Hight of steps into the boat, and as wo approached, pulled out an alli gator four or live feet long, by a cord that was lasteucd about his neck, anil held it on his knees, bending its mil around from side to side. The negro women at the Iirst look, grabbed their babies and lied in all diu c lions, notwithstanding the boy's good nalured, "Ho won't hurt you.'' Ho picked him up and put him down, coiled his tail, rubbed his sides nnd put his big, ugly head upon tho boat-thwait for geneial exibition, and through it all the alligator was as quiet as a lamb. Indeed, ho seemed rather to like the process he was undergoing. Perhaps he liked tho jolly disposition of the boy. "Won't ho bite hitn'f" I asked. "No: alligators won't generally bite," said my fisherman, "unless you tantalize urn. That boy there, is just like a baby; jus' ns quick ns his head is down in the night he's nsloep."
