BULL MOOSE At BAY.

The other day William Burnett and j. j;
Gaynor two Duluth explorers. wandered
at some distance from their claims
thirty-fve miles back Of Chicago bay. IN
Cook county. To look at certain lands.
While trudging along they came face to
face with great bull moose, says the
st. Louis Globe-Democrat. Neither OF
the men had a gun The men realized
that the moose meant mischief. and they
Skinned up balsam. The moose came
up and paved the snowshoes and seemed
disposed To await DEVELOPMENTS.
Nearly three hours had passed when
pack of twenty wolves cautiously APP
preached the tree. The bull moose was
game and signifled by his actions that
he would fght; The wolves were at
OF affairs. but apparently reasoned That
~ they could not get "A couple of men
for i~~n they would bo polite enough
not to GrumEle and take what was set
before them. which was moose--a living
mountain of moose. The wolves ap-
preached the moose from all sides. and
then began n battle the like OF which
few men have ever witnessed. lie struck
at the wolves with his forefeet and ant
lers and kicked at them with his hind
view the idea OF hamstringing the moose
A certain number would engage the
moose at the head but the most OF them
were swapping at the hind legs of the
great game animal. Mr.. Burnett says
that the agility OF the moose was remark
able. and he was as strong apparently as
"A locomotive. lie caught and flung the
wolves about like chips and howls OF
anger and pain rang through the woods.
At last. while making a mad lunge TO toss
some OF the wolves. the moose shed his
antlers After one startled look when
he realized that he had lost his head
weapon the moose turned and ncd at
top speed.
