This is the first installment of the famous Dorsey travel pictures and shows scenes in little known parts of India. Most of the scenes are unknown even to the most traveled tourist and were secured by Dr. Dorsey with great difficulty. Beautiful buildings in Delhi and other cities are shown, including the higest tower in India, and the "Friday Mosque," the largest in the country. Extraordinary contests between animals at the court of one of the Rajahs are presented. A fight to a finish between two elephants, another between wild boars and a leopard and hyena, in which it is proved that no animal will stand up to the charge of the boar.
