King of the forest to roam the woods
and plains that in life had been so dear

For years this story was told The
traders, matter of fact as they were.
oaid little attention to the stories, even
though many pretended to have seen
the moose. Every Indian tribe has its
legends and ghost stories, and the de-
scription of the big bull moose, with
the antlers larger than man is long,
was promptly set down as one of
these.
In October Of 1897 an Indian French
lalf-breed, untroubled by supersti-
ton, legends or scruples, came into the
post and reported that for four days
he had followed the "hi-uh moose" and
lad killed it near the headwaters of
the Stewart river, 200 or 300 miles from
Dawson City (Klondike). This was in
the dead of winter
After staying the great beast he en-
1eavored to get some one to assist in
bringing in the meat and the head, but
the supersttious braves firmly refused
ever to lay hand on the body. They
considered the Staying sacrilegious. 1t
vas long months before the daring
aunter could set himself right in the
yves of his offended and indignant
tribe.
Finally party Of whites went out
from the post and brought the moose
n. The next year the head was sent
down the Yukon to Tacoma, Wash,
where w. +. Sheard, skin merchant
Of that city, bought it, and in his pos
session this unique and magnificent
trophy remains. That it was extremely
old is sure. The growth of antlers such
as this is unusual. The head is not an
unusually large one.
1t is said that an awful death over
took it's slayer. The Canadians of the
Stewart river district have a legend
that at certain times a great bull moose
'ushes madly through the forests near
oy. On his antlers is writhing hui
man form. Shrieks of fear and anguish
are heard. Suddenly moose and man
disappear. Again ana again, tley say,
this ghostly sight is seen. 1t is one
of the ''hi-uh" torturing its slayer. And
when there is this rushing through the
forest as of the tearing by the great
antlers again of bough and leaf, and
shrieks, human like, come on the wind,
and there seems IL be a thunder of
mighty hoofs, the Indians shrink to-
gether and whisper: Ills the sop' of
the half-breed."

moose head in the worlds the prop

1t has 40 prongs, and its immense fam
like antlors are enormous in their
width as well as in height. The marvel
is that any neck could have carried such
burden.
Its history is unusual and tinctured
with the romantic superstition of the
Canadian Indian. For many years the
Indian tribes around Fort Selkirk and
the mouth of the Stewart river, in the
northwest territories of Canada, had
told among themselves the tale of a
mighty moose, "hi-uh moose" that
for years and years had haunted the
district of the Stewart river. Many
years before, when the gigantic ami
NAL had first appeared, their fathers
had endeavored to kill it; for days they
had tracked the beast through the
painless forests. Easy to track it was,
for the immense antlers, said the In
dians, made a path through the foliage
of the trees wider than man was high,
and the marks of his huge prongs on
the bark were certain indications of his
path. Gradually grew up around this
huge, mysterious animal superstitious
reverence that he should escape all bull
lets and arrows and evade all pitfalls.
1t became whispered that this moose
held within it the soul of some great
warrior, one skilled in war and cum
ming in council. He had entered this

Ferguson HID Learned.

Mr.. Ferguson. back from Europe, told
his adventures at the Porphyry, says the
Boston Journal. He had been warned
against the captain of the Bulgonia, who
was a fine example of the traditional old
sea dog, whose brutality and profanity
were considered as the effiorescence of
seamanship. Ferguson was at first death
ly sick, but he managed to stay on deck
He saw the captain coming and he hailed
him: Good morning, sir. Isn't IL pretty
rough?' To which the captain answered !:
Rough? Why in h--l shouldn't It be
rough the first day out you, blankety-
blank" etc. Ferguson went below. The
next day, again on deck, he saw the cap
tain watching him. Ferguson had learned
his lesson. The captain broke the silence
We'll sir, you are looking better to-day"
Ferguson roared out: why In HI
shoundnt l be better the second day
out, you blanlety-blank." etc. The cap
tain put out his hand: Come into the
cabin and have a drink, and won't you
sit at my table?H
