HUNDREDS or ELK.

The Wyoming trail along which we
rode was deeply cut Il was made by
hundreds OF elk that had gone over 1t
within q day or two. We rode for
perhaps half a mile. and suddenly
we saw a small bunch OF elk running
along the next ridge, their outlines
clear and sharp against the sky. They
were a hundred yards away. jumped
of my horse, opened my camera, and
made my first photograph OF elk. This
was not the band we had seen on the
farther hillside, but an incidental
bunch that we had overlooked.

the ridge where we expected TO leave
our horses. dark clouds began to OBJ

One Danger to the Game in Wyoming

One Danger to the Game in Wyoming.
There is one other danger to the
game. That is the misguided who
wish 10 drive the ranchmen and set
tiers entirely out of western Wyoming
and 10 make the country a vast pre-
serve. II must be remembered that
before there was any forest reservation
a great many settlers, after the manner
OF the west, went in and occupied the
irrigable portions OF the unsurveyed
land. These settlers are lawfully
there, but they have not all been able
to prove up and secure titles. Othe-
settlers live close to the timber re-
serve. and are dependent upon IL for
their summer cattle-range. 1t is the
impression of a great many people in
Wyoming that the government of the
United States is acting as a cat's.paw
for the eastern sportsmen's league that
avowedly wishes TO drive the cattle
from the mountains and the settlers
from their homes. They fear a
variation OF the black page OF English
history when the rich and powerful
eonfscated the homes of the lowly to
make hunting parks for the amuse-
ment of the great. Buildings lawful.

dence OF fresh meat out of season.
These grievances, real or imaginary
make the settlers uneasy. They feel
that they are weak and far away. and
some OF them look on the elk as their
rivals. As one ranchman said. "This
valley Is our home. II we thought the
elk would be the cause OF our being

was out OF the question. as we rode to
the top and sat looking at the elk scat
tered out in front OF US. We began
counting them, and as nearly as we
could tell there were about three hun
dred and fifty in sight. We had not
been against the sky line very long
before some OF the elk began 10 stand
up and look. and soon the entire audi
.ence gave us their undivided attention
Some OF them ran back and forth, as If
they did not know where 10 go, but
finally an old COW took the lead. All
the others fell in behind her, and they
sailed away in a long irregular line,
running toward higher ground. Peter
son told me 10 come on, and / galloped
after him as hard as | could. By
taking a short cut we came right
among them, separating them into two
divisions. They ran hither and thither
In great confusion, the whole crowd
turning now this way, and now that,
like frightened sheep. The pattering
OF a thousand hoofs blended into a
deep bass note. the music of which
was never TO be forgotten. Finally
part OF them went one way and part
another. and for a long time we
watched them, until they disappeared
over a far-away hillside. 1t showed
nearly all the afternoon, and so any
further picture making was out of the
question for that day; but we made a
wide circuit TO see where the elk were,
and at scarcely any time during the
whole afternoon were we out of sight
Of them somewhere. Peterson said
that when the snow had gone from
the high mountains there would not be
an elk within twenty miles OF his
ranch, and then they would not come
down again until the next winter

Young. the 10-year-Old son of Lester
Young, of this place, is a bright boy,
and one who is very well liked by all
who know him.
For some years Orhra has suffered
a great deal with n form of Kidney
Trouble which was very annoying, and
which made him miserable all the
time. He had 10 get up three or four
times every night, almost all his life.
His father heard OF a remedy called
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and bought some
for the little fellow, with the result
that he Is now completely cured Of the
old trouble. He says:
"Dodd's Kidney Pills soon gave me
great relief, and now l can sleep all
night without having to get up. We
will always praise Dodd's Kidney
Pills."
There are many children suffering
from Kidney and Urinary troubles.
These disorders should be promptly
corrected. Dodd's Kidney Pills is a
safe and sure remedy for all such de-
engagements.
Master Orbra Young conquered his
troubles and made a well boy of him
self. by using Dodd's Kidney Pills,
and any one may do the same by the
same means.
Parents should see to ii that their
children are given a fair chance in
life, and there is nothing that can un-
dermine the health of a growing child
