HUNGRY BRUTES FOUGHT OFF

Two Harbors, MIMI, Dec. 13-With a hungry
pack OF wolves jumping upon the vehicle in an
endeavor to secure deer carcass, swapping ut
the horses necks and threatening the occupants
IN broad daylight, the driver and passengers on
the stage had thrilling adventure when driving
from Grand Marais to this village.
Inc wolves kept up their chase for four hours
me nrst day. until house was reached, where
the passengers put up for the night. The car
cass of the deer was being conveyed from Grand
Marais, and the wolves, attracted by the scent
OF fresh blood, gathered in "a pack about 4
o'clock in the afternoon and kept close to the
stage until O'Clock in the evening when the
stopping place was reached. From time to
time the wolves would attempt to spring upon
the wagon, but were repealed with revolvers.
Several times the animals attempted to spring
upon the horses. but were beaten off.
Wolves are causing more trouble this year
than for many past 1t is said they are more
numerous and holder than usual and have even
attacked men. The only explanation is that
fewer deer than usual have been killed in the
woods this season by hunters who desire only
the heads or horns as trophies and leave the
carcasses in the wilds. This is accounted for
not by more humane attitude of the hunters
but because less opportunity was afforded to kill
big game.
