w. n. Wright, a veteran hunter,
writes on 1.-The Lynx and Lion in
The American Magazine. Here is one
Of his stories:
"An old trapper started out to peg
his traps and cut away the ice. He
took nothing but an axe. as he did
not expect to have any use for the
gun. In one of the traps. some twelve
miles from camp, he found large
-
clog for few feet only and was SIT
ting in a patch of brush behind a
large log. The old man did not want
to go to camp and get his gun. SO he
decided to cut heavy pole and beat
out the brains of the brute with that
He cut the pole and proceeded to ad-
minister the skull-breakinS blows,
but the brush was so thick that the
blows were Intellectual. For a while
the animal took the pounding and
simply snarled, but by the time ne
had received ten or q dozen blows
over the head and the blood began to
run freely from his nose and mouth,
he made a move that the old man had
not figured on. Crouching low on the
ground, the animal made spring for
the old fellow and, although handi-
capped with q twenty-pound trap and
an eighty-pound clog, he cleared
brush, Jog, and all and landed at the
old mans feet. The latter made a
backward spring just in time to es-
cape. The lion then clawed the axe
and pole together and sat on them,
and the trapper at last had to so TO
camp and get his gun and shoot the
brute"
