ATTACKED by A LION.
A Sheepherder Saved From Death
by His Dog.

Wesley Newton, who came in
from Marquette last week, according
to the Red Lodge Picket, tells of a
desperate encounter one of his
sheepherders had with large noun
tain lion, which occurred on the night
Of December 26. On the night in
question Andrew Thompson, one of
Mr.. Newton's most trusted herders,
was asleep in his cabin with his herd
corralled close at hand. Hearing a
commotion among the band he went
out to investigate and saw noun
tain lion making off with one of his
charges. Thompson was unarmed,
but without hesitation ran to the
rescue of the sheep, when the lion
dropped its prey and sprang upon
him, telling him to the ground.
Thompson's trusted shepherd dog
took hand IN the encounter and
undoubtedly saved his masters life,
although it was at the costOf his own.
The mans clothing was almost COM
pletely torn off of him and he was
quite severely scratched in number
of places, but while the lion and the
dog were engaged NE succeeded in
extricating himself from the three
handed fight and made his way to
tie cabin and secured his rife. The

powerful and unequal adversary
when Thompson returned and quick.
ly dispatched the lion with a single
shot, but not until the noble dog
had been killed. Lion, dog and
sheep all laid within few feet o.
each other, the graound was red will
blood and Thompson with his cloth
ing torn in shreds and bleeding from
a dozen painful wounds, presented
the appearance of having tackled I
huge grizzly bear. Fortunatel,
Thompson's wounds are not serious
but he is satisfied he would hav'
been killed had it not been for tn,
interference of his dog. This is on
of the first instances on record wher
