Mr.. Baseom was a tenderfoot from New
Hampshire and went to Wyoming to hunt
antelopes. Wyoming is the best antelope ter
ritorv on the continent, and when Mr.. Bas-
com and a friend started out from a pace
called Node Ranch, there seemed to be thou
sands of the graceful animals in sight. Inc
horses were staked out and the two sports
men started afoot.
After going three or four miles, with the
antelopes further away each mile, Mr. Bias,
com changed his tactics. A stock shelter,
made of boards on poles covered with prairie
rrass, stood little distance of, and bascom
concluded to take his place on top, while mis-
friend went back to the horses and drove up
the antelopes to be shot. Lying up there IN
he sun, Bascom waited patiently for an hour
md then raised his head and saw-an enor,
nous rattlesnake crawl out OF the grass anu
looi aroundi
Mr.. Bascom hadn't time to rise and jump, so
he crawfished to the edge of the shelter and
feil to The ground in heap, narrowly escap-
ing an antelope that was grazing beneath
While he had been waiting for one herd,
another one had come from the opposite d.
rection, and the wind blowing from them to-
ward him, they had gone under the shadow
pf the shed to rest. On the advent OF Mr..
Baseom in their midst, the herd ran of like
A streak. and the unlucky hunter hobbled
away, declaring that he never cared for ante
lope anyhow.
When a pack of wolves turn hunters,
thew are rarely baffled of their prey, unless
Il escapes by flight. Wolves are obstinate
as well as bloodthirsty, and it is not often
they are beaten outright.
A Louisiana hunter rode out in the woods
one day with his dog and double barrel shot
gun. After riding a few miles, he missed
his dog and stopped to hunt him.
Presently the dog came running through
the brush with five wolves in hot pursuit.
When they caught sight of the horseman.
they slackened their pace, but still advanced,
with bristling hair and savage snarls. The dog
took refuge under the horse, and the hunter
sat perfectly still. supposing that the wolves
would take flight when they saw him. But he
was mistaken.
The animals still advanced and the hunter
fred, bringing down the foremost. His second
barrel laid low another wolf He expected
that the remaining three would now surely
run away, but they came forward boldly, and
he had barely time to reload before the trio
were almost on top of him. But the dog at
tackled one the horse kicked another, and
with these helps the hunter finally disposed
of all his assailants. Being in broad daylight
and in summer makes the ferocity of these
wolves more astonishing

NO FROST HERE.
High Wind Prevented Freeze in This
Section.

Thanks to the wind which prevailed
throughout last night, the promised
frost did not materialize, and fruit is
safe again for a few hours at least,
though the forecast is anything but
reasSuring. The mercury dropped to
20 at 8 o'clock last night and at that
hour a fifteen mile I'm hour wind pre-
vailed. doing away with the possibility
of q iILst.
The forecast for today and tonight
II. ticates snow or rain wit cool and
cloudy weather for the succeeding
twelve hours. There was no frost III
the immediate vicinity of Topeka last
night and the mercury barely reached
35 degrees, the minimum for the pre-
ceding "a hours. At that some of the
more tender vegetation was nipped
and the young leaves on beans and
like tender plants have in some in
stances turned black from the chilling
which they have received.
Freezing weather prevailed over the
greater portion of the state last night
and the mercury dropped to 26 in the
northwestern portion of the state. But
little fruit is grown in this section Of
Kansas mad the damage done which
was light is confined to tender vegeta-
ton The southern third of the state
escaped low temperatures as did the
Kaw valley counties Dodge City. with
a temperature of 35 degrees suffered
n
reported from Concordia, though in
neither section will the damage to fruit
amount to much owing to it's advanced
condition.
The indications are that the fruit
crop in Kansas is safe so far and much
depends on the action of the weather
during the next "a hours. While the
forecast predicts a possible snow
storm, this does not mean that fruit
will be greatly damaged if the worst
does occur unless the mercury should
take decided drop.
The weather conditions in Topeka
while somewhat threatening do not
indicate the snow or rain predicted by
the weather department and the tenn
peratures have been several degrees
higher today than those of yesterday
at the corresponding hour At Z
clock this morning the mercury stood
at 80, or three degrees higher than at
the same hour yesterday. At O'Clock
the mercury had cached So, or three
degrees higher than that of Monday at
the same hour. The sky is partially
clear and the sun has been shining at
intervals since early morning. The
wind is blowing from the northwest

following are the temperatures of the
