in spirit and clarified in mind by the

found excellent water but encountered one of the
worst gravel beds about 500 yards across, and in
crossing this we had to assist the chuck wagon
over.
Up bright and early next morning and away in
a rush as the mountains were our goal. During
this day In the forenoon nothing OF any importance
happened, but long about sundown business be-
gan to pick up. We had just arrived at the
Baballos (Horse Creek) and watered our horses
and intended going beyond about three miles
where grass was good. Just after we crossed
this creek left the wagon and rode out along
side at a distance Of about one-half mile In
doing this I was in hopes Of finding deer as
the range was fine and prospects good. To my
surprise found something better than deer,
big black bear. was about 500 yards from the
wagon and upon arriving at the top Of nice
smooth knoll noticed Mr. Bruin anG he spied me
about the same time. The country was rolling
and l was riding an excellent horse, SO you can
imagine my feelings, as was confident OF hav-
ing some genuine sport. tightened up my sad
die and looked for my rope, but had left 1t in the
wagon. Without moments hesitation reached
for my rife Then the race began. This bear

and It was my intention to head him of to keep
him from entering cave. Giving my horse full
rein and extra hard spur thrust was able to
turn Mr. Bear and by doing this got him started

side at a distance of about $50 feet took my
first shot, hitting him in the feshy part Of the
hind leg, but this seemed only to make Bruin
run the faster. Seeing l would have to do better
than this I tried to get closer, but could not
make It. Taking three more shots still missed
as was running my horse at full speed and could
not hit the mark as readily as If was standing.
At the next shot was 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,

Next day nothing of any interest happe2ed ana
after deciding to move over to a nearby canyon
we broke camp and rode about TWO miles Iurther
where wood was plentiful and where we coulo
find large trees so we could hang the deer, as we
wanted to cure the meat
Returning to camp next morning found some
more good news as 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 wanted-a bear chase with the dogs
So back to camp came Louis and after 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 up
through another canyon and we were to meet at
the top at a designated place
/ was about half mile across a canyon. Louis
at another point, Bob at another and Henry, the
cook, could not stand the temptation so he had to
follow. and was placed at another entrance. Dur
ing this time the dogs were hot on the trail max
ing good time, and If you have never been in such
a suspense as this Just try getting on prominent
point overlooking the entrance to several small
canyons and in hearing of a good pack of hounds
If you have any sporting blood In your veins it
will surely come forth and make you feel for the
time being that you are lord Of all you survey"
Things had begun to get interesting now as the
dogs we're getting nearer all the time and each Of
US expecting the bear to come down through the
something that sounded like the exhaust of an
automobile, and he knew, just the moment he
heard 1t, that 1t was the bear breathing and fat
bear makes an awful breathing noise when tired
and hot. Louis made run over to a small point
as he knew the bear would come in through a
small cut because he could hear the rocks rolling
off the side Of the hill which was caused by the
bear coming down in such haste. When being
pursued by pack of dogs and in close quarters
bear will not run down hill but just puts his head
down and forms himself in the shape of ball
and rolls down hill. Rocks half the size of
barrel were falling down these bluffs. Louis
rounded the point just in time to intercept Bruin
and at distance of about 80 feet let drive at
him with his .3O-30. hitting him in the heart This
did not stop him as he rolled and fell along for
some 80 feet before stopping. Another shot
brought him to a halt About this time the dogs
began to arrive and were pretty much all in, as
run Of or miles through so rough a country
will tire out the best of them. So back to the
horses "a distance of about a mile) we started
and after partaking of lunch and few minutes
rest we were off to bring in the three deer and
the bear to camp, as 1t was getting along about
2 p. m. and we did not want to get caught up in
the mountains after dark.

nearby came to my assistance and we both placed
the bear my horse and carried 1t over TO the
camp where we skinned the pelt.
That evening we camped at Ell Remado, where
the coyotes were very plentiful, but we did not
stop early enough to place our traps We mad
five well-trained hounds on this trip. The next
morning Louis killed fine specimen of a coyote,
large with fine fur and nice color. That evening
we entered "Cibolo" (Bufalo) canyon, which to
start with was quit shy of water. Just at the en-
trance It's awfully rough and very slow going. SO
rather than to take chances of breakdown we
decided to wait till morning and then get an
early start so could make 1t through this pass
in one day. That day we hunted both sides OF
the road for "tenaho" or pot holes which most
generally contain water II one can find one where
the cattle cannot reach Luck was with US as we
found one of these pots" near the road which
had sufficient water to water all the horses. The
balance Of the distance we had to assist the wag-
on by the aid of the saddle horses on account
of bad roads and the grade was continually going
higher
That morning Louis killed deer and the same
evening l killed big black tail buck, very fat
and a fine specimen We only made about ten
miles that day but were up early next morning
30 as to reach the water hole as the water ques-
ton was something serious and we had to arrange
our travelling accordingly. We passed through
grassy strip of about five miles where grass was
fine and green. These grass strips seemed to be
all through these mountains. / suppose the rains
must have fallen in streaks. We reached the
water hole and watered the teams and filled kegs.
After consultation we decided to return to the
grass to rest the horses and above all try and
get some black-tail 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
tain) was our destination we went back to the
water-hole. Bob, Louis and rode on ahead OF
the wagon and on the way there noticed
where panther had followed down the trail to
the water-hole. We went on down to the water
and watered the dogs and then turned them loose
on the panthers trail, as were anxious for
chase and we had 1t from the very start The old
dog 'Remus" led of followed by the other four

Commissioner Phillips Plans Beneii- cfal Campaign The Coming Summer
 Little Rock, May 4.-Commission- CT of Agriculture Fred H. Phillips is planning to hold farmers institute in every county of the state during the coming summer and fall, that he may carry forward in a practical manner his theories of scientific agriculture.
 He expects to begin about June 1, and at first will operate along the lines of the Iron M1untain Railroad, in conjunction with L. A. Markham, Commissioner of Agriculture of the Missouri Pacific system. The major ity lof these meetings will he held on Saturdays nights, when the farmers will have more time to attend the lectures. Mir Phillips will devote most of his attention to his bread and meat propaganda, while the principal part of MT. Markham's time will be devoted to the bollweevil and methods of cultivation. It is the be-  lief of those engaged in the work that they will have much better crowds on that day through the growing period than On any other day of the week, but MT. Phillips plan is to deVote more than the Saturdays to the work.
 After the conclusion of the insti- tutes to be held along the lines of the Iron Mountain, MT. Phillips will dn do@1pern tson with Commissioner H. N. C,ttrell make a similar tour of the Rock Island lines in the state He will also go into the interior, and plans to visit every county of the state. It is his purpose to secure the services lof experts on different subjects, featuring corn, cotton, live stock an grasses. G. c. Watkins. of Fort Smith, President of the Arkansas Association, will probably go al,ng to discuss the poultry proposition, and it is probable taht A. D.
