A Katonaka correspondent of the Vel
iomstoae Journal narrates the following:
"Mr. W. ID. Hill has q prodigy in b shape
OF q yearling steer that lived a. days and
and nights without food or drink. The
facts are as follows: On the first day of
October a fine yearling steer belonging to
w. ID. Hill mysteriously disappeared, All
efforts to And the animal resulting in fall
ure Il was given up ~ lost, strayed or
stolen, until the 18th Of November, just A.
days after II disappeared. Mr.. Hill acci-
dentally found the steer in n hole while
driving up his cows, and although greatly
emaciated was able to travel home, where
q few days on hay and water so restored
its health that IL was turned out on the
range and has hustled for itself all win
ter. Now the sequel to this remarkable
incident has just come TO light and should
be known to all men. IL seems that 4.
ID. O'Neill, who is something OF n scient-
list. was explaining to his ~neigbbor, Mr..
Hill, that he had figured out on scientific
principles that a steer, when properly fat
ted on Montana bunch grass. would live
A. days without food or water.
Whereupon Mr.. Hill, who takes no
stock in such stuff ms science, in
dignantly denied the hypothesis. This
at once provoked Mr.. O'Neill's betting
ting temper and he offered to bet the
price of a steer that his theory was cor
rect. Mr.. Hill promptly accepted the
wager and the terms were soon agreed
upon, by which Mr.. Hill furnished the
steer, with the provision that Mr.. O'Ncill
wal 10 nave it, and II il died he was to re-
place IL with a new one. Accordingly the
steer was placed in q hole in the ground
formed by nature, about eight feet square
and nearly a mile from Mr.. O'Neills
ranch, which was considered sufficient
guarantee that Il would get nothing to eat
or drink and he left to its own scientific
reflections. At the end Of the time desig-
mated both men repaired to the scene of
the experiment.; where, to the gratiflca-
ton of the n and he CONSERVATION OF
the other, the steer was still alive, but so
thin and weak from fasting that Mr..
O'Neill again specialized that il would be
impossible for the animal to recover. So
having established his theory and con.
WINGED his neighbor, he generously gave
the steer back to Mr.. Hill. This time
science failed, for the steer recovered and
be seen ut any time at Mr.. Hills road
ranch on Powder river. Now who says
that cattle won't do well in this country"
