therefore he had not much opportunity
to experiment with it; yet he states that
''if stick was put In front of either head
1t the snake would back away from It. !"
Mr. Cartwright also describes, in the
same book, a curious encounter with An
eagle, While hunting, In the winter OF
'74-'76, on the Yellow river near Chip
pewa, Wisconsin, his companion went
out one day to bring in q carcass OF a
deer that had been hung on tree for
safe keeping. The man had borne the
deer about forty yards from the tree,
when an eagle swooped down into the
path, about twelve feet in front OF him,
and, turning about, planted itself upon
the ground in decidedly combative at
titude. 1t stood upon one foot, with the
other upliited as if ready for fight; its
head was erect, its sharp eyes sharply
fixed upon the man carrying of the deer
upon which it was probably about to feed;
the feathers were all turned forward and
stood on end, and the wings were par
TALLY spread" The man dropped the
deer, and Selling stick, struck the
eagle SO violent blow that the weapon
was broken, The bird retreated about
six feet; then, whirling round agaiu, as
sumed the same defiant attitude as
before. It's Antagonist picked up another
stick and started for the eagle, which
menacingly advanced until the two were
only four feet apart The blow now
dealt the bird injured it so that it could
not fly, and it endeavored to run away.
Yet again it turned with plucky pur-
pose to fight the battle out; but the su-
perior powers CT the man secured the
victory, and the bird wa, laid low. at

feet and ten inches from the bill to the
tip of the tail, and seven and half feet
