panse was hathed in the last bright glow
of the sun; an6 it grew dark gradually,
80 that it could be seen how the shadow
fitted across it, and it became dark
green. The mist rose more densely;
each flower, zach blade of grass, emitted
a fragrance as of amber and the whole
steppe distilled perfume. Wide bands
of rosy gold were dashed across the dark
blue heavens as with a gigantic brush;
here and there cleaned, in white tufts,
light and transparent clouds, and the
freshest and most bewitching of little
breezes barely rocked the tops of the

almost stroked the cheek. All the music

had died away and given place to an

MOUNTAIN SANS HUNTING DOCS.
Their Exploits In Rounding Up and
Capturing the big Horns.

Their Exploits In Rounding Up and
Capturing the Big Horns.
An old trapper and hunter known AS
Mountain Sam" is doing a land office
business killing huge mountain sheep for
their heads and horns. These he ships
to New York to fill the orders he is CON
stantly receiving, and there they are
mounted. Sans best customers are
wealthy Englshmen, and many an Eng
hsh hall bears witness in mammoth
heads and antlers of the mountain sheep
magnificently mounted, to Sans Prov
ess as a hunter.
For many wears Mountain Sam has
buried himself in the most remote re-
oesses of the Big Horn mountains. Here
he is in the very haunts, hidden and
deep, of the big horn or Rocky noun
tain sheep. Sans way of capturing his
willy quarry is peculiarly adapted to his
needs and deserts. He rounds up the
wild sheep of the mountain crag. peak,
and precipice with dogs.
His pack numbers twenty-five head,
and they are a pure cross of the blood
hound and bulldog. Mountain-born and
bred, these noble animals add to the
'fNN'bh 'Ni'bbth III bhbh'i1 'hS't
blood strains a marvellous endurance and
a cat-like activity. No snow depth. no
r%oughness of trail, no steepness of preci-
pice, no loftiness of peak, no remoteness
of locality can stop the mountain dog
when on the track of mountain sheep.
The pack works in an organized way
when the trail of a band Of sheep is
struck. The dogs break into little
lunches, and wide and careful circuits
are made, The closely pressed sheep are
hurried to IA common center, and they
will soon be punched with twenty-five
dogs erect and tails wagging, moving
about them in an endless and eager
circle.
The pack has been known to bunch
$50 head of sheep, and to hold their
watch and guard for over six hours
waiting the coming of their master,
who has been kept back by the diff
culties lying in his path. 1t sometimes
occurs that the dogs bring the game to-
gether on "A spot that is utterly inaccessi-
BILE to human feet. Then the hunter
gives his dogs notice of the fact by a
peculiarly shrill and piercing shout. The
pack at once dash into the midst OF the
sheep, seize and slay the largest, and by
dint of rolling, tumbling, and falling
from crag to crag. from declivity to de
clivity, bring the carcasses within reach
of their master,
These dogs trace their pedigree TO a
pair brought into this region many years
ago by a rich Englishman, who made
old Fort Stambaugh his hunting head
quarters. When the Englishman left
these mountains he gave his dogs, whose
worth he had proved in many a hard
days chase, to Pap" Conant, who was
~wellknown then as a frontiersman.
Pap gave a couple of pups from the
first litter to his old comrade, Mountain
SAM who thus came into possession of
the nucleus of this present magnificent
pack.-Wyoming Cor. Denver Tribune
Republican.
