WOLVES KILL LONE INDIAN
Stays Nine Animals in North Before
He Is Overcome.

After emptying his rifle and fighting
wolves, lone Indian on the Lake of
the Woods, thirty-five miles from
Warroad, was torn to pieces by the
rest of the beasts that had attacked
him. His bones were found stripped
of every vestige of flesh. The nine
carcasses of the dead wolves that he
had killed We're lying near.
This is the first fatality of the kind
reported this winter. The wolves are
starving because of the lack of snow,
which makes it easy for them to over
take deer in the woods, and they are
travelling on the lake in large packs
of thirty or more animals.
