He says that when they left the camp their dog followed them and after arriving on the beach the dog began to howl when the wolves came out of the woods and started toward them. Each of the men was carrying a gun and after killing two of the ferocious beasts and woundinf number of the others they succeeded in driving them off From the experience of these men it will not be well for anyone to go into the woods unaccompanied or unarmed.

FROM FRIDAYS RALLY OLD TIMER OF ALASKA
 MEETS DEATH

We are sorry to learn of the death uf Charles E. Butterick, an old timer of Alaska and who for five years was with B. A. Eardley, in his mining operations at Dolomi. An account of the circumstances surrounding his death were printed in the Los Ange- les Times as follows:
 The body of Charles E. Butterick' formerly wealthy Los Angeles real estate broker and mining man, who had been missing since July 5, was found yesterday four miles above Brush Creek.
 On July he left Fairview on a prospecting trip, taking sufficient amount of food for but one day.
 When at the end of two days he failed to return aequaintances began search for him, but could obtain no news. A second party, sent out by the Edison company from 1nyo-kern, led by an old guide, followed the tracks of the man from the camp over several miles of territory to high buff overlooking the Kern river.
 It is impossible to get to the bot tom of the cliff from this point, as it is sheer drop of oyer 150 feet, and the current is so swift that the spot cannot be approached by way of the river.
 Successive search parties failed to locate the body and it was generally presumed that he had met death by falling from the cliff into the river, and that the body would be found somewhere in the river.
 Mr. Butterick, who was 65 years of age, was for many years pros pector. Besides prospecting in Cali fornia and Arizona, he spent nine years in the Klondike, and still I tained the strength and vigor of 3 man of 40.
 Charles Butterick, Jr, left last night upon the receipt of the news ot the finding of the body, and is ex pected to return late tonight witt the remains.
 Mir. Butteriek was native of Mich igan and had lived in Los Angeles for over thirty years, his address be ing No. 909 Court street. He leaves three sons and three daughters, al grown. They are Charles K, Law renee, and Llewellyn r. Butterick an, Mrs. Will Smith, Mrs. Joseph Williams of Los Angeles, and Mrs. Ernest Her bert of Pasadena
