WOLVES CHASE MEN IN SLED.

One of the most thrilling encounters
ever experienced with wolves in the
vicinity Of Onamia, Mimi, took place
the other night shortly after dark. G..
A. Frank and William Dawes had been
out butchering COW, half mile from
town, and were on their way home
with the fresh-killed beef on the sled,
when they were startled to hear the
howls of several wolves some distance
away. Other wolves took up the cry
and in few moments pack Of fully
fifty wolves were in close pursuit.
Frank put his horses to the run, but
the wolves were fleeter, and when just
a few rods from the city limits, seven
or eight of the bloodthirsty animals
leaped upon the sled. Dawes, who
stood behind, killed three of them with
long butcher knife which he had
used in the dressing of the COW. The
knife was wrenched out of his hand,
and he killed fourth by throwing it
of the sled SO that it fell beneath the
runners. BY this time they were with
in the village limits and the wolves
gave up the chase. The men imme-
diately reported their adventure, and
large posse of citizens, armed with
rifles and shotguns, went back to see If
more of the animals could be killed.
They found the pack engaged, In de-
