Disposition of the Charge of i \\(him(Ic(I I,ion in Africa. For several days the ostricl camp near Sir Alfred Pewe'sj home stead at Athi kiver bad been wor r~d by lions, and as that gentle man had just arrived by the steam ship Ouelph, in company with hi son and Mr. Grey, the news t< I hand was heartily welcomed as at fording most opportune sport. J party was promptly organized, con sibling of Sir Alfred Pease, G j Grey, Howard and Edward Pease i Capt Slater, Mr. Clifford and H i Hill. The hunt was started 01 Sunday morning. January 29. Th I plan of campaign was to divide in | to two parties, one consisting o Sir Alfred and Mr. Hill. After about half an hour's ride in drawing n donga, Mr. Hill espte< ; two big male lions making off abou ; half a mile to the right, and th : party of two gallowed after th j quarry, endeavoring to keep then I in sight. Sir Alfred followed th ; bigger and slower animal and Mr i Hill the leader, which was som | four or five hundred yards to hi | left. The object of the hunter j was to turn the game into a don ! ga, thus giving time for the res of the party to come up, hopin that Mr. Grey would be given th | opportunity to open the shoot. Tha | sportsman has a fine reputation fo high courage, and is no novice a big game. Unfortunately the so< oiul party had no opportunity c learning the tactics that had bee agreed upon by Sir Alfred and Mi Hill. I Mr. Grey, seeing the game, pc , his horse to a gallop and practica ly started to course the brutes. Hi j companions were immediate! ;alarmed at his foolish temerity an ' endeavored to warn him of th 'j terrible danger he was eourtinj They were doubly alarmed at se< \ ing one of the lions preparing t charge. Mr. Hill thereupon dii mounted and fired a quick shot i the biggest lion in the hope of a (tracting his attention from M , Grey. The bullet unluckily fe short and the lion charged M 1; Grey, who jumped off his pony an , awaited the onslaught. At abot twenty yards he fired and the sh< ' ' went into the shoulder, but witl , .out stopping the deadly charge. II got in another shot at about fit ' yards, hitting the brute in tl ( 1 mouth, breaking two of his murde ous fangs and injuring his jaw. ' The lion flung its victim to tl , ground and commenced to won him just like a cat would a ntous ? Meanwhile H. Pease had followc | Mr. Grey and the party waved hi; to come up on the flank. Tht 1; then covered the three hundrt . yards between them and the lie and his victim at top speed. Whe some fifty yards off the lion noth ed his fresh antagonists and cease : to maul Mr. Grey. } At tweutv-five yards the pari [dismounted and ran in. The beai immediately made toward them, an at this awful moment of peril M j Hill's rifle jammed and he. to< was out of action. Almost simu ! taneously Sir Alfred and H. Peas fired and the balls entered th lion's ribs. The thrice heavil j wounded animal then returned t ; his victim. The horrified relit i party scarcely remember what liai pened during the next brief mc ments further than that the lio was on top of Mr. Grey and anima and man were so mixed up that i was most difficult to distinguis the former's head from the hitter' body in order to get in a deadl . head shot, which was found impos sible to place until the lion was al most lifeless. During the deadl fray the other lion was distant on ' ly about one hundred yards, growl ! ing and lashing his tail. In spit of the double danger threateninj them, the hunters, who had onl two .256 rifles, paid no attentioi to the second animal, being inten on relieving their comrade. Mr. Grey's wounds were ver numerous. The lion severely claw ed his face and head, bit his arms hands and thighs and inflictei nasty wounds on his back. Afte being rescued from his deadly peri Mr. Grey was perfectly collected and quietly instructed his anxiou friends how they could best han die his larcerated body. N ECHO'S DEATH SUSPICIOUS.
