= Are Seeking Human Prey.

REPEBLdC SPECIAL.
!, .tinnipeg, Manitoba. Feb. II.-Confront-
edAby 4 bungry pack of wolves and chased
to a place of refuge. two Winnipeg men
had "a hair-raising drive.
J. H. Amey, a commercial traveller and
a Bell telephone inspector were on their
way from Stonewall to Stony Mountain.
when within two miles Of the ~last-named
place a pack of timber wolves was no
ticed on the road a short distance ahead
of them. These animals invariably show
their heels when approached. but on this
occasion they gave promise Of making a
determined stand. The travellers. how
ever. drove. along apparently unmindfui
Of. them. and when within a few feet OF
them the pack skunk away among the
drifts of snow and poplar scrub.
The occupants of the rig became a lit
tie more easy at this junctute, believing
that, as is customary, the animals would
look for other prey. But in this they Were
disappointed. One of the occupants of the
rig. in Glancing around, happened to no.
tics the outline of one of the gaunt ami
mails as II leaped- from one knoll to an
other. This was followed by the outlines
of the. others, until the whole pack. was
discovered TO be doggedly following the
rig.

any kind. and then only did the real dan
ger of their position dawn upon them.
Wolves become much more dangerous and
daring when they see a prospective prey
r%etreating than when a stand is mace.
The men, too, did not lose any time in in
creasing the speed of their horse, and it
rapidly resolved itself into a race between
the travellers and the wolves.
The hungry animals sped over The
ground at lightning rate. and, becoming
more daring, took to the road behind the
fleeing rig. Fortunately the men were
driving a good piece Of horsefiesh, and
Just managed to reach Stony Mountain
ahead of the animals Here they entered
at b~reakneck pace. TO the utter ~asstonish-
ment of one or two of the villagers. who
happened to be about at that early part
of the morning.
Oh course, the wolves gave up the hunt
at this point. not daring to follow up the
rig into the village.
Stony Mountain is about twelve miles
from Winnipeg. The winter has been par
ticularly hard on these animals. and has
been making them look for food other
than by the usual channels. They We're
making their appearance very much
closer to settled sections Of the ountr
han heretofore.
