Taking three shots still missed as running my horse al full speed and could not hit the mark as readily as If I was standing At the next shot I within about 20 feet of the bear and this shot took effect Just as the bullet hit the bear he wheeled and made direct towards my horse catching him by the tail Now good reader, this may not scary, but try 1t time and see how your blood circulates Mine nearly pushed my hair off my head If had not been riding a good horse 1t would have been serious sure enough My horse realized the posi- ton he in and I had 10 ride to keep my seat there some high jumping and quick work done which all happened in few minutes.

 That evening Camped at Fl Remado, where the coyotes were very plentiful but did not stop early enough to place our traps We had five well-trained hounds on this trip. The next morning Louis killed fine specimen of a coyote. urge. with fine fur and nice color That evening we entered "Cibolo" (Buffalol canyon which 10 start with quit shy of water. Just at the trance ,tis awfully rough and very slow going. so rather than to take chances of a breakdown We decided 10 wait till morning and then get early start so could make it through this pass in day. That day we hunted both sides of the road for "tenaho" or pot holes which most generally contain water if one can find one where the cattle cannot reach Luck with as found of these pots" near the road which had sufficient water to water all the horses. The balance of the distance had to assist the wag- on by the aid of the saddle horses en account of bad roads and the grade continually going higher
 That morning Louis killed a deer and the same evening I killed big black tail buck. very fat and fine specimen We only made about ten miles that day but were up early next morning to reach the water hole as the water aues- ton something serious and We had to arrange our travelling accordingly. We passed through a grassy strip of about five miles where grass was fine and green. These grass strips seemed to be l must have fallen In streaks We reached the water hole and watered the teams and filled kegs After a consultation decided 10 return to the grass 10 rest the horses and above all try and get some blaektail deer We reached this grass about noon as It was only about three miles from the watering place. That evening We did not find the deer as expected but were still in good spirits as our horses were doing nicely on the green grass After deciding to go further Into the mountains as the Cerro Colorado (Red Noun tainl was our destination, We went back to the water-hole Bob Louis and I rode on ahead of the wagon and on tfe way over there noticed where panther had followed down the trail to the water-hole We went on down 10 the water and watered the dogs and then turned them loose on the panther's trail were anxious for chase and We had it from the very start The old dog "Remus" led of followed by the other four. and let me tell you. gentle reader, We had to do some riding so to keep in touch with them The going was awfully rough and on several oc.

 Next day nothing of any interest happened and after deciding to move over to nearby canyon We broke camp and rode about two miles further where wood was plentiful and where we could find large trees SO could hang the deer. as wanted to cure the meat.
 Returning to camp next morning found some more good news Louis had located bear on top of "Cerro Colorado" and had shot at him. but being so far away did not hit him This was what We Banted-a bear chase with the dogs So back 10 camp came Louis and after a consulta- tion We decided to wait till morning before start ing after the bear The next morning we were away before daylight Bob and Louis going horse back and leading the dogs while went afoot LID through another canyon and We were 10 meet at the top at a designated place

CANADA'S CENSUS
A TERRIFYING PER GENT IN. CREASE IN THE PAST TEN
 YEARS.

That Canada has come rapidly to the front in the past ten years is am ply shown in the results of the census recently made public The population of the Dominion is now placed at 1.0S1 .s69 which with outlying points 10 be heard from, may bring 1t up to 74 millions as compared with 5,37i,- 5f5 in 1901. Though these figures are large, they do not present total as large as was expected but they do show greater increase of percentage in population for the decade than any similar increase in the United States. The highest percentage ever reached by the Republic was 24E; the per- centage Of increase in Canada for the decade Is 32go. Thus 1t will be seen that the provinces west Of the lakes. with the great broad fertile acres ready for the sowing and immediate reaping of grain and the Valleys of British Columbia capable of producing fruit with which to supply It's neigh boring provinces east of the noun tains. have attracted numbers, which has exceeded the most optimistic of the expectations of ten years ago.
 Upon the prairies of the ten years ago there was but q spare scattering of people; but today. no matter in which way you go, take any direction, and you find homes and farms and good ones too, occupied by the very best class of people in good sized set. dement's with plenty of room for five or six times as many more- The pop ulation of Alberta Is set down at 372,- 919. as compared with 73,022 in 1901; Saskatchewan 453,508 as compared with 9f.270 in 1901; Manitoba's 454,- 691 compares well with its 255,211 in 1901: and so does that of British Co- lumbia-362,7 768 as against 17S.657 in 1901: but in territory as large as this population of 1,643 ,0O0 Is little more than discernible in point of num- bers. The work through it has been great. Look at the towns that have been built up; it's cities, Winnipeg with 135, 5,000; Vancouver with upwards of 100000; Calgary with 43,000, Ed monton, Regina, Saskatoon: Leth. bridge; Medicine Hat, Moosejaw, NpitiA0iu tltltS-BOHe bttltI dHy- where; well maintained and equipped. These have come with existence and been built as they have been built by reason of the splendid agricultural country by which they are surround. ed. The population Is scarcely dis cernible. A population ten or twelve times that shown by the recent census could be easily maintained in even greater wealth than that which maintains the present numbers. There Is certainly wonderful future for Western Canada and that which goes to the development of the west will enrich the last. This Is the growing time in Canada and what has been done i'll the past ten years is but beginning. The next decade will show far greater advancement. In the meantime Canada is bidding vel come the progressive and industrious citizen. The invitation is a standing one. At the forthcoming land eyposi tion in Chicago, Canada will have one of the best exhibits of farm products that has ever been made and 1t will be well worth while inspecting 1t and getting information from those who may be in charge.

The dogs finally stopped our pan ther and as 1 was ahead l located him first sitting on a rock upon the side of a big bluff. so, taking no chances as to his getting away. I let go at him, striking him in the stom- aeh. This shot knocked him off the rock but did not kill him. He rolled down among the dogs and business was good for a few minutes, but Mir Pan ther was getting weak and could not hold out any longer, so turned In his checks. We measured him to be s feet 2 inches from tip to tip. Good size. don't you think?
 Next morning Bob killed two fine bucks and I kill ed one. Louis and myself started up to top of the mountain, which only looked to be about a mile distant, but We were four hours going to the top. Here We had some great sport shooting black-tail deer. as they were plenti- full and one could get such good long range shots, which were the kind We wanted as they afforded the greater sport. Killing deer in this way vas tee easy, as they were plenti- ful and could be had most any time.
 On the top and sides of these mountains one finds juniper trees covered with berries. white and red oak. two kinds of cedar and scrub oak or shin cry" besides numerous other trees. Wild pears seem 10 thrive there also. All the deer killed on these mountains were fat and as fine favored meat as one could wish.
