The Death of a Blind Terror Who Ha@ a Monkey for a Guide, From London Trath. The great Jhoot demon described by Col. Downing in his narrative of adventures in India was a tiger whose ways were as mys- terious as his ravages were terrible. He could never be bagged. He killed every shikari, native or European, who tried it. This trucculent beast had never even been seen, and as he never mangled a body, but only sucked the blood through an orifice made over the jugular vein, the terror the great Jhoot demon inspired is not surpris- ing. He never forced a door, yet he got into house after house. Two subalterns went out for him, and the next day were found dead like the rest. But no amount of conjecture could solve the riddle of these words. A famous shot, who once for a wager shot 100 tigers in twelve months, met the same fate.

He built himself an ambush and watched. “Just as the full light of the moon fell upon the stream and illuminated the sur- rourdings there was an ulmost inaudible rustle of leaves close behifid me, and, turn- ing on the instant, I saw a little ray brown paw very cautiously putting aside the twigs of my shelter, and behind the Paw I could discern two small green eyes attentively regarding me. “*A lungoor,’ I said to myself, as it van- ished from view—a monkey. “That's what the lads and Dick Culverton meant to tell us, and, by George! there's mischief here. Moved by a sudden inspiration, for which I cannot to this day account, I hastened from the shelter and ascended the adjotn- ing tree. I had scarcely time to seat my- self comfortably upon one of the lower branches when I saw the lungoor return- ing, followed by the most repulsive look- ing monster my eyes have ever beheld. “You talk, » of your tiger being mjangy; this one was absolutely naked, nude as a nut, bald as a bottle, not into a subject of horrified wonder, the brute approached the ambush ed his hideous face up to the moon, I could see that his eyes were of a dull, dead white, without light, intelligence, movement.

On the second night that the reserves were at sea one of the amateur tars was on the wate! He was a Boston man. The night was clear and beautiful.

When the officer had recovered from the shock occasioned by this unseamanlike an- swer, he looked over the rail in the direction pointed out by the man from Boston. Then he had another fit.
