ANOTHER FAMOUS HUNT.
President Roosevelt, Marshal Aber-

Special to The World.
Lawton, Okla, August 9.-Presi.
dent Roosevelt has indicated to John
Alternately, the champion coyote chas-
er of the southwest, and present Unit
ed States marshal of Oklahoma, chief
ly because of his accomplishments in
the bagging line, that he will attend
a big coyote drive to be given in the
large Indian pasture reserve in the
southern part of Comanche county,
on Thanksgiving day, this year. This
drive will commemorate the exit of
the cattle kings and the entrance of
the farmers, for during the autumn
the secretary of the interior will
cause the lands to be sold for home
stead settlement.
Marshal Alternately will head the
coyote chasing feature and he will be
accompanied by the principal horse
men and hunters of the southwest Ok
lahoma. A hundred of more cow
boys will be present for participation
and several hundred of the fleetest
greyhounds in this part of the south
west will be enlisted in the chase.
Coyotes are yet numerous in the
big reserve and chasing them has be-
come one of the most popular sports
of southwest Oklahoma. Several
steere will be slaughtered day or
two before the chase and their ear
casses dragged over the area Of land
to be covered by the chase to attract
the coyotes to that vicinity. Here
tofore as many as hundred and
fifty of these little nimble animals
have been attracted in this manner.
