Driving the Grizziy West.

In the days of Kit Carson the grizzly had not learned to look upon man aa a: foe to be shunned at any cost, but the quick firing magazine rifle has taught him that if he possibly, can he must keep out of man’s sight. He has now been driven back into the almost Inaccessible solitudes of the northwest Rocky Mountains, and the sportsmen who wishes to add his pelt and dangling necklace of claws to his collection of hunting trophies must travel far and endure much hardship and labor, for “old Epliriam,” as he was called by the Westeru pioneers, Is as cunning as he is fierce.—St Nicholas.
