HUNTING THE , WOLF THBGBOHB DQQCDVDLiT

Copyr1ht, 1893. by O. P. Putnam's Bom. Published under arrangement with G. P. Putnam's Sons. New York and London.

HOUGH I have never known wolves to attack a man, yet In tbe wilder portion of the far Northwest X have heard them come around camp very ', close, growling: so sav agely as to make one almost reluctant to leave tbe camp fire and go out Into the darkness unarmed. Once I was camped In the fall near a lonely little lake In the mountains, by tbe edge of quite a broad stream. Soon after nightfall three or four wolves came around camp and kept me awake by their sinister and dismal bowling. Two or three times they came so close to tbe fire that X could bear, them snap their Jaws and growl, and at one time I positively thought that they Intended to try to get Into camp, so excited were they by the smell of the fresh meat. After a while they stopped howling; and then all was silent for an hour or to. I let tbe Are go out and was turning Into bed when I suddenly heard some animal of considerable size come down ' to tbe stream nearly opposite me and begin to splash across, first wading, then swimming. It was pitch dark, and I could not possibly see, but X felt sure It was a wolf. However after coming half-way over It changed Its mind and swam back to the opposite bank; nor did I see or hear anything more of the night marauders. Five or six times on the plains or on my ranch I have had shots at wolves, always obtained by accident and always, I regret to say, missed. Often the wolf when seen was running at full speed for cover, or else was so tar off that though motionless my shots Went wide of It. But once have I with my own rifle killed a wolf, and this was while travelling with a pack train In the mountains. We had been making considerable noise, and I never understood how an animal so wary permitted our near approach. He did, nevertheless, and just as we came to llttlo stream which we were to ford X saw hlra get on a dead log some thirty yards distant and walk slowly off with - bis eyes turned toward us. The first shot, smashed his shoulders and brought him down. The wolf Is one of the animals which can only be hunted successfully with dogs. Most dogs, however, do not take at nil kindly to the pursuit. A wolf Is a terrible fighter. He will decimate a pack of bounds by rabid snaps with bis giant jaws while suffering little damage himself; nor are tbe ordinary big dogs, supposed to be fighting dogs, able to tackle him without special training. I have known one wolf to kill a bulldog which had rushed at it with a single snap. ' The true way to kill wolves, however, is to bunt them with greyhounds on the great plains. Nothing more exciting than this sport can possibly be Imagined. It Is not always necessary that tbe greyhounds should be of absolutely pure blood. Prize-winning dogs of high pedigree often prove useless for the purposes. Once I had the good fortune to witness a very exciting hunt of this character among the foot-hills of the northern - Rockies. I was staying at tbe house of a friendly cowman, whom I will call Judge Yancy Stump. He was The worrying, growling ind marling were terrific. t daggers drawn with bis nearest neighbor, : a cross-grained ; mountain farmer, who may be known as old man Swindle. There was one point, 'however, on which the two came together. They , were exceedingly fond of hunting with bounds. The Judge had three or four track-hounds, and four of what be called swift-hounds, the latter including one pure-bred greyhound bitch of wonderful speed and temper, a duncolored yelping animal which was a cross oetween a greyhound and a foxhound, and . two others that were crosses between a greyhound snd a wire-haired Scotch deer-bound. Old man Prlndle's contribution to the pack consisted of two immense brindled mongrels of great strength and ferocious temper. :.'-' As I was very anxious to see a wolfhuut the Judge volunteerd tosget one up, and asked old man Prindle to assist, for the sake of his two big fighting dogs; though tbe very names of the latter, G neral Grant and Old Abe, were gall and wormwood to the unreconstructed soul of the Judge. Still they were the only dogs anywhere xstoaA ctaabicurf-tackllair

timber ' Wcflr, and without "their" aid the Judge's own high-spirllcd animals ran a seriouj risk of injury, for they were altogether too game to let any beast escape without a struggle. Luck favored us. Two wolves had killed a calf and dragged it into a long patch of dense brush where there was a little spring, the whole furnishing admirable cover for any wild beast. Early in the morning we started on horseback for this bit o cover, which was some three miles off. The party consisted of the Judge, old man Prindle. a cowboy, myself, and the dogs. The judge and I carried our rifles and the cowboy his revolver, but old man Prindle had nothing but a heavy whip, for he swore, with many oaths, that no one should Interfereyith bis big dogs, for by themselves they would surely "make the wolf feel sicker than a stuck bog." Our shaggy ponies rack-, ed along at a five-mile gait over the dewy prairie grass. The two big dogs trotted behind their master, grim and ferocious. The track-hounds were tied in couples, and the beautiful greyhounds loped lightly and gracefully alongside the horses. The country was fine. A mile to our right a small plains river wound in "long curves between banks fringed with cottonwoods. Two or three miles to our left the foot-hills rose sheer and bare, with clumps of black pine and cedar in their gorges. We rode over gently rolling prairie, with here and there patches of brush at the bottoms of the slopes around the dry watercourses. At last we reached a somewhat deeper valley, in which the wolves were harbored. Wolves lie close in the daytime and will not leave cover If they can help it; and as they had both food and water within we knew it was most unlikely that this couple would be gone. The valley was a couple of hundred yards broad and three or four times as long, filled. with a growth of ash and dwarf elm and cedar, thorny underbrush choking tbe spaces between. Posting the cowboy, to whom he gave his rifle, with two greyhounds on one side of the upper end, and old man Prindle with two others on the opposite side, while I was left at the lower end to guard against the possibility of the wolves breaking back, the Judge himself rode into tbe thicket near me and loosened the track-hounds to let them find the wolves' trail. The big dogs also were uncoupled and allowed to go in with the hounds. Their power of scent was very poor, but they were sure to be guided aright by the baying of the hounds, and their presence would give confidence to the latter and make them ready to rout the wolves out of the thicket, which they would probably have shrunk from doing alone. There was a moment's pause of expectation after the Judge entered the thicket with his hounds. We sat motionless on our horses, eagerly looking through tbe keen fresh morning air. Then a clamorous baying from the thicket in which both the horseman and dogs had disappeared showed that the hounds had struck the trail of their quarry and were running on a hot scent. For a couple of minutes we could not be quite certain which way the game was going to break. The hounds ran zigzag through the brush, as we could tell by their baying, and once some yelping and a great row showed that they had come rather closer than they bad expected upon at least one of the wolves. In another minute, however, the latter found It too hot for them and bolted from the thicket. My first notice of this was seeing the cowboy, who was standing by the side of his horse, suddenly throw up his rifle and fire, while the greyhounds who had been springing high in the air, half maddened by the clamor In the thicket below, for a moment dashed off the wrong way, confused by the report of the gun. I rode for nil I was worth to where the cowboy stood, and instantly caught a glimpse of two wolves, grizzled-gray and brown, which having been turned by his shot had started straight over the hill across the plain toward the mountains three miles away. As soon as I saw them I saw also that the rearmost of the couple had been hit somewhere in the body and was lagging behind, the blood running from its flanks, while the two greyhounds were racing after It; and at the same moment the trackhounds and the big dogs burst out of the thicket, yelling savagely as they struck the bloody trail. The wolf was bard hit, and staggered as he ran. He did not have a hundred yards' start of the dogs, and in less than a minute one of the greyhounds ranged up and passed him with a savage snap that brought him to; and before he could recover the whole pack rushed fit him. Weakened as he was he could make no effective fight against so many foes, and indeed had a chance for but one or two rapid snaps before he was thrown down and completely covered by the bodies of his enemies. Yet with one of these snaps he did damage, as a shrill yell told, and in a second an over-rash track-hound came out of the struggle with a deep gash across his shoulders. The worrying, growling, and snarling were terrific, but in a minute the heaving mass grew motionless and the dogs drew off, save one or, two that still continued to worry the dead wolf as it lay stark and stiff witb. glazed eyes and rumpled fur. No sooner were we satisfied, that it was. dead than Jtie Judge, with cheers and oaths and crackings of his whip, urged the dogs after tbe other wolf. The two greyhounds that had been with old man Prindle had fortunately not been able to see the wolves when they first broke from the cover, and never saw the wounded wolf at all. starting off at full speed after the unwound ed one the instant he topped the crest of the hill. He had taken advantage of a slight hollow and turned, and nojr. the. chase jraa crseslDX us .half a

mile svay." With wn?p and" spur we flew towards them, our two greyhounds stretching" out in front and leaving us

I

He rose on his hind legs like a wrestler. as if we were standing still, the trackhounds and big dogs running after them just ahead of the horses. Fortunately the wolf plunged for a moment into a little brushy hollow and again doubled back, and this, gave us a chance to see the end of the chase from nearby. The two greyhounds which had first taken up the pursuit were then but a short distance behind. Nearer they crept until they were j within ten yards, and then with a tre- j mendous race the little bitch ran past him and inflicted a vicious bite in the big beast's ham. He whirled around like a top and his jaws clashed like those of a sprung bear-trap, but quick though he was she was quicker and just cleared his savage rush. In another moment he resumed his flight at full speed, a speed which only that of the greyhounds exceeded; but almost immediately the second greyhound ranged alongside, and though he was , not able to bite, because the wolf kept running with its head turned around threatening him, yet by his feints he delayed the beast's flight so that in a moment or two the remaining couple of swift hounds arrived ou the scene. For a moment the wolf and all four dogs galloped along in a bunch; then one of the greyhounds, watching his chance, pinned the beast cleverly by the hock and throw him completely over. The other jumped on it in an instant; but rising by main strength the wolf shook himself free, catching one dog by the ear and tearing it half off. Then he sat down on his haunches and the greyhounds ranged themselves around him some twenty yards off, forming a ring which forbade his re treat, though they themselves did not dare touch him. However, the end was at hand. In another moment Old Abe and General Grant came running up at headlong speed and smashed Into the wolf like a couple of batteringrams. He rose on his hind-legs like a wrestler as they came at him, the greyhounds also rising and bouncing up and down like rubber balls. I could just see the wolf and the first big dog locked together, cs the second one made good bis throat-hold. In another moment over all three tumbled, while the greyhounds and one or two of the track-hounds jumped in to take part in the killing. The big degs more than occupied the wolf's attention and took all the punishing, while In a trice one of the greyhounds, having seized him by the hind-leg, stretched him out, and the others were biting his undefended lelly. The snarling and yelling of the worry made a noise so fiendish that it was fairly bloodcurdling; then it gradually died down, and the second wolf lay limp on the plain, killed by the dogs unassisted. This wolf was rather heavier and decidedly taller than either of the big dogs, with more sinewy feet and longer fangs.

A man hunting a downtown bird store tried a policeman at Broadway and Warren street. "There is one down there. he said, "on Greenwich street, only a few blocks from here; another over there on Fulton street, a couple of blocks from Broadway: another on Pearl street, another up some distance on Fourth avenue and" "Hold .up!", cried the man. "How does a policeman come to know about so many bird stores? "My place was overrun with rats," said the policeman, "and somebody told me to get a ferret 1 went to neary all the bird stores in town before I found out that a ferret was not a bird."
