Sports of the Rajah in Mysterious India

This is the first installment of the Dorsey travel pictures and shows scenes in little-known parts of India. Beautiful buildings in Delhi and other cities are shown, including the highest 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. The Nizam of Hyderabad entertains his guests with a cheetah hunt, and we go with them. The Maharajah of Udaipoor gives a tiger hunt, the pictures of which were taken from the swaying howdah on an elephant's back. Fights between rams are depicted, and then we are taken to the old fortress of Golconda, its fabulous wealth long since scattered, and shown the tombs of the "Rockefeller" dynasty of India.
