t October and November,
1897, I was ‘‘leveling” in the Yablonoi
Mountains, beyond Chita, one of the
Jegions through which the
passes, and survey work pro-
grossed slowly through the thick, tan-
gled brush on the slopes. Before we

On one of these januts in Novem-
ber, I climbed the long, low, rocky
ridge ite Mount Kathluan, and
descended into the valley beyund it, a
distance of seven or eight versts from
eamp. A verst is about two-thirds of
smile. Then I was in s fine, wild
country, wholly uninhabited and de-
void of hasvy forests, though there
were scattered birch and larch copaes,

In the valley of a clear, mountain
river, 8 tributary of the Shilka, the
steady roar of falling waters led me
balf a mile or more to where a cataract
of twenty-five or thirty feet pours over
a break of the strata into au opales-
cant pool which shoals out on pebble
bars leas thas a hundred yards be-
low. On the south side, where I ap-
proached, the pool is walled in >
abrupt, smooth ledges of granite tev
or twelve feet in height, snd such a
of e shrubbery grows

to look down into the une
ul I crawled under the boughs,
u of the hoary, lichen-clad rock,
down on the foam-faced pool
and up $5 the milk-white fall.
Directly below the rock where I lay,
lay over yellow gravel, and presently
fish lying almost
brooding on their
<beds—flsh of five or ix
pounds esch. At first I thought them
oarp, but soon I concluded that they
were a | variety of river trout.
Earlier in the season I might have
sq; thew salmon, since the Bhilka
isa tributary of the Amur, which flows
into the Northern Pacific Ozean,
About twenty of these fine fish were
lying so that with hook and line I
might easily have dropped bait before
shoot one of the largest with wy ecar-
bine, when u throaty scream from
a fellowsportsman--a fish-hawk,
perched on a large, leafless tree across
the pool—esused me to look in that
direction. A minnte later the hawk
took wing, and with two or threo claps
of his powerful pinions came sailing
across the pool and circled overhead,
one round, red eye turned downward.
I thought him about to plunge
down for a fish, but soon perceived
that his attention was fixed ou some |
object in the thicket, either on me or
on some object near me, something on
the brink of the very crag where I lay.
‘‘He has seen me,” I thought, “and
resents my intrusion on his fish pre-
serve; and I was on the point of ris-
ing up to punish his incivility with a
shot, when I heurd a slight, stealthy
crackle in the thick brush a few yards
away.
Whatever it was, it seemed to be on
my track, hunting me, and I was
much startled, althongh I lay quiet
and held myself ready to fire the in-
atant I canght sight of its head. Bat
I quickly perpeived that the rippling

back in the brush,

My nlarm was simply sickening |

bad never dreamed that any were loft |
there. Buttheare was one before roe
meal.—-one so cioes to mo thet 1 dared
not stir, or even wove the muzile of |
my gun!
My former fear recurved that the!
ing forward on my track, but ss it
that its ‘eyes wore not on me. Half |
crouching, it crept, catlike, to the ex:
treme verge of the ledge and pwered
intently downward at the pool. Be
fore 1 could oven conjectures wha! st
farther forward, curving its neck over |
its body. For a moment or two its |
bisck-tipped tail whipped the boughs,
then suddenly it leaped down with
splash. g
With intense relief at heart, I pooped
oer and maw the tiger in ths water,
grabbing with Jdightuing like motions |
of its heal and paws, Then, with »
gleaming, straggling fish in its wouth,
it bounded through the shallow» ater | |
on the gravel around tie font of the
pool. Never shall I see a mors Lean:
tiful spectacle than that of the magnifi- |
cent beest of prey as it went at long
leaps through the water in the after
noon sanshine, while over it the hawk
circled and swooped with whistling |
screams, as if with some inten! to
snatch the fish,
Crossing the shallows, the tiger
bounded up the rocky bank, its claws |
scratching audibly oa the rounded |
boulders, and ran for forty or fifty
ards to the leafless oak ou which the !
wk ;had been perched. There it
ped and crouched to eat the fish,
wm where I lay the tiger was in
full view, and distant sbogt four haa-
dred feet. My courage had revived
considerably, now that the pool and
the steep rock lay between us, and I
considered whether it would do to
risk a shot. My carbine was » i
one, and at that range one long forty:
five-calibre slug might be expected to
kill or disable almost any creature
smaller than a rhinoceros. Yet such
terror had been struck into tae ny the
brute's sudden appearsuce that 1 felt
much inclined to steal away. Hut 1
dared not. Ten to one it would de-
tect some sign of my moving and fol
low my tracks. To shoot it seemed
the only way of saving wy life.
While I was thus meditating, the
tiger suddenly rose to its feet and
stalked down to the pool again. It
desired more fish. For a time it
scanned the water, then entering the
shallows, it began to cross over, |
walking somewhat gingerly, as if dis |
liking to wet itxelf again, or else un-
willing to disturb the pol.
It cconrred to me instantly that its
purpose was to cross to the ledges anid |
repeat its former tactios of springing
down on the fish. Fresh alarm took |
possession of me. If 1 lay there the
tiger might come upon me.
Clearly, I had better take the ini-
tiative and shoot the beast, if possible,
while still down on the gravel. The
distance was not wore thao fifty yards,
perhaps less.
I rested my carbine slong the
smooth surface of the ledge and fired,
just as the animal was at the deepest
piace on the shoals, Its head was
turned up-stream as I fired, and the
bullet, as appeared afterward, passed
through its right nostril, smashing its
lower jaw, slipped underneath the
skin of the neck and penetrated its
chest.
