WOLF PACK NEARLY
DEVOURS HUNTERS.
JACKSON COUNTY MEN SEPARATED
FROM PARTY AND FEROCIOUS
BEASTS ATTACK THEM.
Ammunition Gone and Last Hope Fleeing,
They Are Found by Companions
Wholly Exhausted.

LOYAL, Wis, Feb. 3.-ISpecial. i
Harry Riddel and James Cook, promi-
nent citizens of Jackson county, Wis,
had narrow escape from being de-
voured by wolves on the evening of Jan
uary -.
They had been hunting the beasts all
day with a party of hunters from neigh
boring towns and farms. Becoming sep
arated from the main party they lost
their way. Darkness found them build
ing a fire to protect themselves in case
Of attack. They had no sooner kindled
a fire than the dismal sound of wolves
was heard in the distance and the men
prepared for battle.
In ten minutes the forest seemed alive
with dusky forms and soon the battle
was raging. The remainder of the party
had gone in search of the missing men
and came upon them after they had ex-
hausted their ammunition and were
fighting with frebrands as last resort.
The wolves dispersed at the approach
Of the larger party. Fifteen Of the
vicious brutes were killed.
