HIS sYMPATHlEs WITH ELK

cusd Engineer From Extremely
Awkward Position.

A curious story Of adventure comes
from Montana. While freight train
was lying over st small mountain
station, the engineer borrowed 9 shot
gun and started out for g short hunt.
Finding nothing, he was returning to
the train when a cow came running ct
him, and before le realized his dan
ger, she tossed him IN the air.
Getting TO lis feet as quickly as
possible, lie lodged behind tree,
aud then, to his dismay, found that
the gun barrel was bent 50 as to be
useless. The uext ten minutes we're
very lively onas, while the COW chased
the engineer round md round the
tree. Just when he was about TO sue
cumb from fatigue, an angry snort was
heard, and q big elk appeared upon
the scaEe, head down and prepared
for a fight.
So vas the COW, and in another mo.
ment the two animals dashed at each
other. Tie engineer watched the COM
bat for & few minuteg, until prudence
suggested that he should make re-
treat as soGE as no could. He re-
gained the train in safety, and never
know the outcome CT the battle, but
he hopes the elk was the victor.
