Bag Ten Lions In One Day.
Woman Hunter Kills Four of Them Exciting
Sport of Party of Three in British East Africa
Masai Bearer Saved One. :-: v: -:
"We were visiting British East
Africa In quest of big game, and on
our arrival at Mombnsa at once pro
ceeded by the railway to Slony Athl
Station, taking with us a Swahlll
headman named Abdullah, a cook,
four gun bearers, three tent boys and
more than fifty porterB, who had
been engaged in advance for us by
one of the leading trading houses,"
says Walter Cooper In The Wide
World Magazine.
"Soon after leaving Mombasa one
gets Into a very desolate thornbush
country, which continues without In
termission till one reaches Vol. After
Vol one catches occasional glimpses
of antelope In the thin thornbush,
but it 1b not until the Capltl plains
are reached that they are seen In
numbers. -
"From the dak bungalow at Kla
we could see Kilimanjaro, rising ma
jestically from the flat plain and
looking about four miles off, Instead
of the seventy-odd which we knew
It to be. We all felt rather forlorn,
being dumped down on to the station
platform with no one but a Dabu
station master to give us advice, for
we were all new at the game except
Captain H , who had done a little
shikar In India. He had brought
with him his sister, Miss Sybil H ,
who was anxious to try her hand at
big game.
"The following morning we had
Just started breakfast when one of
the porters came running In to say
that while he was gathering firewood
be had seen seven lions, Including
three fine maned ones. We started
at once, accompanied by our gun
bearers and two Masai boys who were
recommended to us to carry second
guns.
"On our way to the place where
the Hons had been seen we had to
cross a perfectly open grassy plain,
intersected every now and then by
email, dry water courses.
"We had not gone far when we
saw a Hon slinking along a depression
In the ground toward a clump of dry
reeds, which he entered. After a
council of war It was decided that
one of the men should go round and
set fire to the reeds, while we posted
ourselves as for a pheasant drive.
Miss H was in the middle, facing
the reeds, whilst Captain H was on
her left and I on her right. Soon the
reeds were blazing high, with a noise
like a waterfall.
"An instant later, straight In front
of Captain H , a large lioness
bounded across a gap In the reeds,
followed by several forms not easily
distinguishable. She had evidently
seen us, for immediately after, the
rushing sounds stopped and growls
succeeded, increasing in volume as
the flames came nearer.
"Suddenly, without the slightest
warning, out rushed no fewer than
seven Uons, no doubt the ones the
porter had previously seen. They
passed between Miss H and myself,
and appeared to be in full flight,
when two lionesses, apparently at
tracted by the movement the young
woman made in putting up her gun,
turned and made straight for her.
They were exactly in a line between
me and her, so that I was unable to
shoot. Miss H had not descended
from a long line of soldiers for noth
ing. Standing up boldly she put In
three shots as they advanced. The
first lioness went over like a rabbit,
with a bullet in its left eye, which
penetrated the brain; the two other
shots merely checked the second. Un
able to do anything to help her, in
another instant I expected to Bee
Miss H hurled to the ground and
worried to death by the enraged
beast. But at this critical Juncture
her gun bearer, Hassar, thinking mat
ters were getting somewhat too ex
citing, took to his heels.
Saved by an Accident.
"The lioness, attracted by the sight
of the fleeing man, or else afraid of
the fearless figure u front, who was
not to be Intimidated by her charge,
swerved off suddenly and made after
the fugitive. The man had not more
than twenty yards' start, and the
great brute rapidly overtook him.
Miss H fired again, and we men
both fired as well, but we were not
near enough to make a good running
shot. The wretched man, with a
courage born of desperation, turned
at the last moment and hit at the lion
ess with his rifle. The blow fell a
bit short, and the enraged brute,
snapping at what came nearest,
caught the weapon In her mouth at
the muzzle. The pace at which she
was traveling was so great that Has
san was hurled backward and in fall
ing, his finger caught the trigger, let
ting off both barrels. By the most
extraordinary piece of luck the rifle
was pointing straight down the
beast's throat at the moment, and
down she went, with .her head nearly
shot away, right on top of him. When
we had at length hauled him out he
was a deplorable looking object, sim
ply smothered in blood, chiefly the
lioness', for his only wounds were
claw marks on his thigh, caused by
the contraction of the animal's mus
cles after death. These were slight,
however, and as soon as Hassan real
ized he had, albeit accidentally, shot
the lioness himself, he began to strut
about in a ludicrous fashion, brag
ging to the other men as to what a
great Hon killer he was.
"Miss H , who. In spite of the nar
row escape she had had, seemed to
have forgotten It already in her pride
at having killed her first lioness, In
sisted on following up the others,
who had now gone Into some long
grass on the open plain. We there
fore advanced In line, about eighty
yards apnrt. We had gone about a
mile when my gun bearer pointed out
the top of a lion's head and ears, just
visible above the grass in a hollow.
We passed the word along, and at
once made for the place. There was
a dry water course here, and Just in
front of Miss H along the edge of It
were some big rocks. She was with
in fifty yards when, In the gap be
tween the stones, she saw a head.
She fired and it disappeared. A mo
ment later it came up again. Another
shot and again It disappeared, only
to reappear a third time. Once more
she pulled trigger, and there was a
7erltable stampede, for a lion and
five lionesses broke out of the grass,
galloping In huge bounds across the
plains. They passed right across my
front, and my second bullet apparent
ly knocked over the Hon as dead as
a doornail, and my fourth a lioness,
which I got with a lucky shot at the
back of Its head.
Uon Was Very Much Alive.
"Captain H , who had seen them
coming, bad kept down out of sight
for fear they should pass out of
range, and they went straight toward
htm. On seeing him they stopped,
giving him an easy shot at about
forty yards. He killed one lioness,
and then taking bis .450 from his gun
bearer took the neatest right and left
I ever expect to Bee at the other two,
who, having separated, were rushing
past him at about Blxty yards' dis
tance. This made seven Hons that
we had seen dead,- or as good as dead,
and we expected to find the eighth,
which Miss H had had three shots
at. What was our amazement and
delight when, after a very cautious
approach to the rocks, we found not
one but three fine maned Hons lying
dead In a heap, a Mauser bullet
through the brain of each! Two had
light colored manes, while the other
had a black one.
"They must have been a different
lot entirely to the other troop, and,
as each one fell the next one, excited
by curiosity, must have stepped on
to a slab of rock which enabled him
to see through the gap In the rocks.
Hence, what appeared to be the same
Hon was in reality a different one
each time. It was an extraordinary
piece of luck, as they evidently could
not quite understand what Miss H
was, as she and her gun bearer were
sitting down, and the distance being
short she was able to make a dead
shot at each.
"Captain H had Just left us to
look at my two Hons, when we heard
a terrlfio growl and my apparently
dead Hon rose up as If unhurt and
Jumped at Captain H . He did not
spring; he simply pushed him over.
The captain had no time to do any
thing and went down like a log, the
impetus of the lion's movement send
ing him yards away. Miss H and
I, after an Instant of absolute stupe
faction, rushed for our guns, which
we had put down. Before we had
time to shoot, however, it was all
over. The Masai boy, who was fol
lowing close beside Captain H ,
with the splendid pluck of his race,
drew his slme (a sort of sword, with
all its weight at the business end),
and hit the Hon across the spine. The
beast simply stiffened spasmodically,
and before It had time to fall over tho
plucky Masai had sheathed his
weapon In the beast's shoulder three
or four times. Then we rushed up
to Captain H , who looked In a ter
rible plight; he was covered with
blood from head to foot and uncon
scious. "We had during the chase got
nearer the railway line, and could
see a train In the distance puffing
slowly up the incline toward Athl
River station. The Masai are very
fine runners, so we dispatched one
of them to stop the train, and pro
ceeded to contrive some sort of a lit
ter to carry Captain H in. Miss
H , with a woman's wit, at once
proposed to skin a Hon and use its
hide. We accordingly started to rip
off the skin of the very beast which
had mauled him, having first propped
up our coats over Captain H to give
THE MEANING OF
Process For Making This Kind of Cloth In
vented in 1840.
Mercerized cotton was first intro
duced as a substitute for silk some
ten or twelve years ago, although
the process for making It was Invent
ed about 1840 by the celebrated Eng
lish dyer, John Mercer, says the
Craftsman. He discovered that when
cotton, either In cloth or In yarn, was
subjected for a short time to the ac
tion of strong caustic alkali, and then
thoroughly washed, the resulting ma
terial was much stronger than before,
had shrunk very considerably, and
had a much greater affinity for dye
stuffs. Mercer patented his discov
ery and made use of It In calico
printing, hut the process was nearly
forgotten until, in 1S89, it was dis
covered that by proper treatment
cotton could, by this means, be made
so lustrous as to compare not un
favorably with silk.
To make the cotton lustrous, the
goods after dipping into the strong
alkali, are kept firmly stretched, and
their strong tendency to shrink resist
ed, until the alkali bag been thor
him a little shade. What was our
Joy, in the middle of our work, to
bear his voice and see him sitting up,
smiling as well as he could from a
face that was all blood except what
was dirt. He said he felt perfectly
well, and could easily walk back to
camp.
"It appeared that he had simply
been stunned by the terrific fall be
had had, and that he remembered
nothing more till he woke and found
himself under a canopy of our coats.
On examining htm, expecting to find
a shattered arm, we were astounded
to find he had only received some
very nasty looking gaBhes. The ex
planation of this we soon saw. My
shot, which appeared to have killed
the Hon, had hit the beast at the
base of the Jaw, smashing the bone
to pieces and stunning him. When
he dashed at Captain H his lower
jaw was absolutely useless, so that
the upper teeth only acted as a rake
Instead of nut-crackers.
"However, the wound looked seri
ous enough, for we knew that very
few recover from Hon bites, most of
them dying of blood poisoning. Cap
tain H , however, was able with as
sistance to walk very comfortably the
mile which separated us from the
line, and before we got to It we were
met by an engineer on the railway,
who had his traveling carriage at
tached to a goods train. He at once
placed the carriage and train at our
disposal. Wo all took the train for
a few miles to the point nearest our
camp, when I left them. I was much
relieved to hear the next day that he
was going on splendidly, though still
prostrated by the shock and likely to
be detained in hospital for the next
few weeks to get his arm healed.
The Masai hoy we sent away rejoic
ing with a present of a cow, as well
as some smaller gifts in money and
kind. Cattle are the one and only
form of riches among the Masai, ex
cept, perhaps, wives so he was pro
portionately pleased, and promised to
Join us again as soon as we were
ready to start. But we hardly ex

To get good results In this process
the materials treated, whether yarn

the results are extremely satisfactory.
The luster Is not as good as the very

the mercerized goods are of very
