Then, seated upon the caravan, we view the countryside with charming stereoscopic effect due to the movement of the camera with the caravan. Many of these English rural scenes are of surpassing beauty. Later, a camping place is sought and found and the story ends with a camp fire scene, showing story-telling and dancing. This is an exquisitely beautiful pastoral scenic that will please anyone fond of forest, field and stream.

1106 Code CEBER Roping the Black Panther Adventure
The Black Panther, a native of Java, and the Straits Settlements, is very powerful, and being the most vicious is the most feared wild animal of those countries. It lurks in a tree or other point of vantage for an opportunity to pounce upon its victim unawares, and generally overpowers him before he can offer much resistance.
In this film we see Major Jack Allen with his dog, Venture, and native
beaters, follow a panther into its haunt among the ruins of a deserted temple
where the Major captures it with a lasso. Then the natives build a crate of
heavy branches and carry the panther away for shipment to some menagerie.

1108 Code CEBOR Capturing Lions by Aeroplane Adventure
Major Jack Allen traveling by aeroplane across the desert in Arabia learns from some native goatherds that their flocks have been attacked by lions. He decides to try to capture the lions by a novel method. Chains are attached to the underside of the plane, with anchors at their ends, so that they can quickly be detached. The flyers then sight their game, and flying low over the desert they drop their chains over the lions. The furious efforts of the latter to escape only drive the anchors deeper into the sand. Then the hunters complete their capture with ropes and cages.
