New York, Jan. 16.-Thornton J.

Hams was asked whether, after he

BIG COYOTE HUNT.
One Holds Round Up at Martins Hill
No ScaIps Taken.

Four coyotes which have visited the
chicken roosts of the farmers west of
Topeka in the neighborhood of Mar
tins Hill at intervals of three or four
weeks apart, are responsible for a wolf
hunt which is in progress today 1t is
called a wolf hunt so that none of the
participants will be offended. Correct
ly speaking it seems to be a little Sat
urday fun for some energetic school
lads of that vicinity.
The coyotes have been more frequent
in their visits of late. The chicken
population accordingly has decreased.
A wolf hunt has been talked of for
some time, and today was selected for
the humiliation of this strain of the
wild canine tribe. There are three
parties in the chase, one starting on
the east, another on the west and still
another on the south. The general plan
is to close in towards the river.
The gang which started from the east
was in charge of Dave DeIong and the
start took place about nine o'clock
from Highland avenue. Henry McAfee
saw the crowd pass through his place
description there were eight or ten in
the crowd with a couple of dogs and
all on foot. Two gray wolves, which
is colloquial in that locality for coyotes
were reused from their retreats by
this gang but eluded the rifle and shot
gun Shells and are still numbered
among the realms of the animate. The
party also passed through the farm of
F. P. MacLennan which is located on
Martins Hill. A close inspection at
this place revealed the fact that it was
an extremelv youthful band of roost
protectors. Two wolves were seen at
this place last night after having en-
joyed, in the reporters mind, a Sump-
tuous chicken feed, carefully prepared
and selected from the prize specimens
of the Cedarcrest flock and served in
a manner entirely to a coyotes taste.
This crowd from the east returned
shortly after the noon hour. No
wolves We're carried in the game
sacks, merely a few cottontails and
belated meadow larks.
Nothing much could be learned at
press time about the other gangs. J.
Z. Corbett started during the fore
noon from the Twenty-firSt street road
north. He had about twenty armed
men with him. but all infantry, and a
couple of dogs. In a wolf chase
mounted hunters are generally de-
manded, and the absence of any cav
airy. may be the reason there will be
no bounties paid on coyote skins, as
a result of the hunt.
A. L. Alfrey with his party did the
accommodating from the west but the
glowing reports of animal casualties
were received from this source at 8
o'clock this afternoon.
The wolf hunt was not a success.
None of the yellow skinned marauders
was unduly excited by the hunters
none was forced into the muddy Kaw
and probably none was aware that
scalps were being sought by a couple
of scores of blood thirsty hunters.
