wolf as the result Of the days sport.
The crowd left this city yesterday
morning at s O'Clock, and arrived at the
hunting grounds about 8. two and one
half miles west of Ferguson. Seven
hounds were taken from this city from
the kennel of w. Fl. H. Bowen, five Of
them fox hounds, one grey hound, and
and one stag hound. The FOX hounds
were let loose in the dense growth Of
timber soon after the party arrived,
and were soon on the trail OF the wolf
The party stationed themselves near
where they thought his wolfship would
emerge from the timber, with the stag
and gray hounds held in reserve for
the chase. The baying Of the hounds
plainly indicated that they were in
close pursuit Of game, and in short
time large timber wolf bounded out
of the woods and started across an
open field adjacent in which the party
were stationed and about 200 yards
from them. The stag and gray hounds
were then let loose and a grand chase
was witnessed. The hounds steadily
gained on the wolf, and when they got
within two or three rods of him, the
hounds Of Mr.. Wilson, of Grinnell,
came up with the rest and short work
was made of him. After the sport was
over the party We're entertained by
Messrs. Crabtree and Seager, two sub.
stantial farmers in that neighborhood.
