"They live because they have not met a cheetah." "How does Nels do it?" "My master must look upon that, to understand. I have seen, but I cannot show it. It " and a rare smile lighted the dark shadows of Bhanah's face, "is soon." "I've heard the Indian princes use them for hunting." "Yes, Sahib, many Indian princes keep hunting cheetahs as English Sahibs keep hunting horses.
For all its unhealthiness, it is the favourite haunt of many of the largest quadrupeds: the elephant, the huge Indian rhinoceros, the lion and tiger, the jungly ghau or wild ox, the sambur stag, panthers, leopards, and cheetahs.
My shot bowled her over. She jumped to her feet again, made another dash at the thoroughly scared Kavirondo, and I killed her just at his coat-tails. The cheetahs ordinarily are supposed to be cowards, although their size and power are equal to that of other leopards. Nobody is afraid of them.
These jewels are kept in a treasure-room in the heart of the Nazar Bgah Palace, guarded night and day by a battalion of soldiers. At night when the palace is closed half a dozen huge cheetahs, savage beasts of the leopard family, are released in the corridors, and, as you may imagine, they are efficient watchmen. They would make a burglar very unhappy.

We had marched two hours, and were pitching camp under a single tree near the edge of the bench.

The Gaekwar of Baroda, during my sojourn in his State, most kindly furnished me with opportunities of witnessing the excellent training of his falcons, hunting leopards, or cheetahs, and other animals. We were also allowed to inspect the immense collection of jewels belonging to the Gaekwar.
A slave returning from the exercising and feeding of four, O! master, of thy hunting cheetahs, came to me this noon full of idle curiosity.
Their hands met; and Skag's soul rose up without words, to answer a white flame in the inscrutable eyes. Early the following morning, Sanford Hantee Sahib said to his servant: "Bhanah, what do you know about cheetahs?" "Such little things as a man may know, Sahib." "Are you willing to give some of it to me?" "All that I am and all that I can, belongs to my master." "Is that the regular "
