Gold Stampede
Narrowly Avoided
Old history pricks placer gold bub-
BILE which set Wrangell boiling.

Excitement among the prospect
blood of Wrangell was stirred by
story of a mysterious placer find,
the "diggiR's' supposedly in sight
of Wrangell, and many were the
speculative glances directed on the
horizon. The bubble burst, how
ever, in time to prevent stampede
by the tracking down of the histo-
~ of Mill Creek, which proved to
be the location of the strike.
Some years ago the creek was To-
Gated and to make stronger title,
the ground wos sailed and peppered
with coarse gold and entered as
placer claims, Some happy hum
an struck nhe salt lately and hence
the mysterious find and consequent
excitement.

UPPER PENINSULA
Wolves Arc Killing Deer


Wolves are increasing and deer arc
decreasing at a corresponding rate In
the Huron mountain and Big Bay
countries. according to Henry Havery
trapper and guide at the Huron Mour-
tain club, who has returned TO Mar
quette with the bounty on nine wolf
pups, the pclts of which he left in
the Longyear Offices In this city.
Mr. Havery has hunted in the Huron
Mountain country for many years. and
within the last three years has claim
ed the bounty on thirty-tw wolves.
He says that from fifty TO sixty wolves
have been killed in that country in the
last few years. but that they are in
creasing faster than they arc killed.
As a result, he says. the deer are be-
coming scarce. and there is danger that
the wolves will rid the country entire
~ Of the deer that a few years ago
were so plentiful.
The nine wolf pups were found in a
hollow log, on April 8. and We're about
a foot in length. Within radius of
two miles OF the same place. Mr.. Ha-
very has, in the last three years. found
twenty nine wolf pups and three full
grown wolves, for all OF which he has
claimed the usual bounty. in addition
to which he has received bounty
from j. NJ. Longyear Of $25 for grown
wolves and So apiece for wolf pups
The county now gives a bounty Of s2J
for grown wolves and SO for pups.
Some persons Mr.. Havcry said are
arguing that the decrease i'm the num-
Der of deer i'm the Huron Mountain
country is due To the work of dogs.
One deer was found dead in the water
where the dogs had chased her and
this was used as the basis Of the as
sertion. But a wolf win get deer be-
fore it gets to the water, said Mr.
ilavery, and one Of them can do more
damage than ten dogs because of its
greater strength and speed.
Mr.. Havery has had considerable ex-
perience with wolves and other wild
animals and knows whereof he speaks.
He caught the cub bears now in the
Union park at Ishpeming. and has
several times attempted to raise wolf
pups. Each time. however, he has
ended the experiment with wolves by
killing them.
They are not TO be feared he said
lin fact my pets would
shake like reeds i'm the presence of
strangers. Until they are year old
they can be trusted with perfect safe
~, but after that the primal instinct
gets the better of them and they be-
come treacherous and wild. II is inn
possible to tame n wolf.
