park has proved that the new line Is

10000 who entered the park last
year nearly half went by this new
western gateway that Mr.. Hartman
created.
The government scouts who are
guardians OF the wild creatures are
about the only ones who ever see
much OF the winter beauties OF the
park. Those who have been there
any length OF time have learned much
that is new about the habits OF the
animals that abound there, although
they are chiefly concerned in keeping
poachers out of the park. There are
fewer of these now than there used
to be, because heavier penalties have
been laid by the government on those
who are caught.
The few that do venture In the park
mostly come in winter. Then there is
less chance Of being detected, but
more risk of losing their lives in the
cold and snow. One thing more than
all others tempts them-the buffalo.

one of the easiest places to
reach and to travel through.
Lieut. Frederick Schwatka made an
attempt to explore the park in Jan
uary nearly 20 years ago. He had re-
turned not long before from an expe-
dition in search of Sir John Frank
Inns party that had persisted in the
arctic regions Before that he had
been on a 3,000-mile sledge journey in
the frozen north and had suffered ter
rible hardships. On his trip into the
Yellowstone Park Lieutenant Schwat-
ka was accompanied by large, we'll
organized party. They Travelled on
Norwegian skis and Canadian web
snowshoes; but the snow was so light
that it would not support them. and
their toboggans were exceedingly DIFF
hcult to draw. 1t took them three
days to cover 20 miles. Lieutenant
Schwatka, Injured as he was to such
hardships, fell Ill and was unable to
proceed. He and all the rest of the
party but four of the sturdiest men
turned back The photographer. f.

Fully 5000 elk winter in the foot

Yellowstone and along the main
stream of that river clear to the base
OF Mount Evarts During the winter
the elk live in 'yards"--places 800 10

bull elks patrol these yards at night
so as to keep away the mountain
lions and other animals that prey

The elks shed their horns about the
! first of March, and until they grow out
again lead quiet life so that their
sprouting horns will not be injured.
AT the time when they shed their
horns they are still herded together

covered with two or three score OF

A Paradise for wild Things.

Millions OF trout come up into the
smaller streams to spawn in the
spring. Bears live mostly on berries
and fish, when they can get them.
Since there are no berries in the
spring the bears break their fast on
fish. They wade into the creeks and
scoop them out with their paws. When
the little bears get tired of catching
fish In the shallow pools they go hunt
ing for moles and work as Industrious
ly as puppy dogs digging them out Of
the earth. Springtime, when the
bears are lean and hungry, is their
busiest time.
Threefourths of the park is a dense
forest, a primeval wilderness. Away
from the few hotels, the roads and
the trails the park today is what 1t
was before even a Pharaoh reigned in
Egypt 1t is such paradise for the
wild things that roam at will there
that they have less to fear, even from
each other and from the elements
than anywhere else In the wilderness.
