Among the Grouse and Chickens

Among the Grouse and Chickens.
Last Saturday and Sunday were
disastrous days for the blue grouse
and prairie chickens that cover the
hills and canyons between Union
fat and Snake river. That is. such
was the intention Of number of
Pullman's enthusiastic sportsmen,
but for some reason the hunters and
the birds failed to connect.
Saturday afternoon party con-
sisting of Messrs John Squires,
VIM. Chambers, Henry Chambers.
Harry Foulks, two fine pointers
and a large supply Of refreshments
of various kinds, drove out as far as
the Bowers farm and that after
noon and the next day was spent
in attempting to locate the birds.
Sunday morning several other
similar parties left Pullman also
bound for the big Almota canyon,
where were reported to bs an unus-
ualiy large number of gentle blue
grouse, Two sanguine pencil push
ers might have been discovered
among these latter parties and they
along with the others, spent the en-
tire forenoon in searching the bot
toms Of the canyons, scaling the
steep and slippery sides to the stub
BILE fields that lay far above, bruis
ing their shins and walking their
legs of looking for those same gen
tie and unsophisticated birds. To
render the sport still mere exhiIar-
ating, the rain began to come down
in large wet drops about noon, and
kept coming down all the balance
of the day.
About four p. M. these weary
sportsmen began to struggle into
town wet and hungry, all apparent
! ly being afflicted with the proverb-
ial "fisherman's luck" The scores
for the day, after sitting the wheat
from the chaff, seems to have been
about as follows: John Squires, two
grouse and one chicken, this last
was said to be q plymoth rock;
Henry and Will Chambers, two
4 grouse each or two between them,
the similarity of their name proba-
bly, being responsible for slight
confusion as to the details; Ira Al
len, two grouse, shot after a long
and exciting search through the
dense foliage of bull pine.
The names Of the unfortunate in
/ dlyiduals who drew blanks, but
whose scores as reported raise no
suspicion as to truth and veracity
are; Harry Foulks, Jas. Pierce, Gin.
Hill, w. Y. Windus, Frank Harris,
Mr. Brown, Henry Sewer and W.
G. Emery.

An Outing in the Bitter Roots.
Kooskooske, Aug. II, 1899.


as some gentlemen from Misseula who
leave this morning for home will take it
that far and mail it from there.
Our party reached this fine camping
place on the banks of the wild Koos-
kooskee yesterday after ticklish days
ride down from the Indian Postoffices.
In coming the fifteen miles from our last
camp at that place we have descended
some five or six thousand feet. About
three =. m. yesterday we reached the
breaks of the kooskoeskse canyon, and
we stopped on projecting spur and en-
joyed the magnificent panorama that lay
stretched out before us. Just across the
canyon the grim and silent Bitter Roots
reared their s2Owy peaks to dizzy heights
above us, while 5000 feet below the river
wound in and out among the mountains,
mere silver thread. You can imagine
something of the grandeur and beauty of
the scene when the mere memory of it is
enough to make dry dispenser of drugs
almost poetical. Tho part, however,
that seemed TO attract the doctors at
tention most vas the deep graqe-like
abyss at our feet, for he feelingly re-
marked that lit would be a beautiful
place to bury patients, and would hold
lots OF them" l could not help but
wonder how we were ever going to get
down to the river as we seemed to have
reached the jumping off place, and the
walls OF the canyon were almost perpen-
dicular. Some of the boys rode down. .
but | walked, that is when | wasn't roll .
ing or sliding, and now that we are down
it's puzzle to me how we are going to
gel up again.
You and your readers nave probably
gathered from the letters the other boys
have written that | am somewhat of
"tenderloot' at this sort of cayuse
bucking, duck shooting and mountain
climbing expedition. Well, Mr.. Editor.
| admit that am, and am glad of it,
for OF all the crazy lot of hunting and
fishing cranks | am unfor unately asso-
ciated with, these three | think would
be awarded the palm at any collection of
aurlos. | often wonder what would be-
