| Barnett Knickerbocker and c. J
Kirk succeeded in bagging a large
mountain lion near the head OF Hart
canon last Friday. Mr.. Kirk, who
has a homestead and sheep camp II
this vicinity, discovered some day.
ago that since Teddy had migrated t,
tame in this country that he was suf
fering the loss Of two or three ia,
lambs nightly. and decided to take the
risk Of capturing this varmint. He
notified Game Warden Knickerbocker
whose duty it is to look after violators
of the game law, and since no lion
has any right under the law to kill
| sheep at this season OF the year, he
started out with blood in his eye and
bloodhounds at his side which found
no trouble in striking the trail of the
king OF beasts. Knickerbocker got
one shot on the run, woundfng the
animal only slightly which then took
refuge In cedar tree. Going up to
within fifty yaids Barnett got in a
couple of well directed shots. the last
OF which brought the lion to the
ground killing It instantly. After the
killing It was discovered that the lion.
large male weighing 10 pounds, had
been caught in trap at some time
in the past losing the toes of one fore
foot. About year ago at the sheep
camp Of Charley Carter few miles
above Mr.. Kinks camp, trap was
set and the toes of a large lion caught
but the lion succeeded in wrenching
himself loose. Undoubtedly this was
the same lion. Mr.. Kirk reports that
this animal on the night before he was
Killed. killed two full grown sheep OF
his flock, cutting the throat and leay-
Ing one and carrying the ether half
