Big Game Disappearing.

THE wealth of animal life found by
our forebcars was one of the great
natural resources Of the New World.
Although freely drawn upon from the
first, the stock was but little depleted
up to within a century. During the
last 100 years, however, the rapidly
increasing occupation of the continent
and other causes, together with q
steadily increasing commercial demand
for animal products, have had an appall-
ing effect. The buffalo, elk and ante
lopc are reduced to a pitiful fraction
of their former countless numbers.
Practically all other large game
has alarminglv decreased and its ex-
termination has been partly stayed
only by the recent enforcement OF pro
"teetiva laws.
"Thc recent great abundance of large
land mammals IN North America, both
ina individuals and species, is in strik-
/ Jag contrast with their scarcity in South
/ America, the difference evidently be
ing due to tie long isolation Of the
southern continent from other land
MASSES, whence it might have been re
stocked after the loss Of formerly
existing fauna.

Trains Cave Herds Right Of Way.

4" In 1870, happened to be on
train that was stopped for three hours
to let q herd of buffalo pass. We sup
posed they would soon pass by, but
they kept on coming. On a number OF
occasions in earlier days the engineers
thought that they could run through
the herds, and that, after seeing the To-
connective, the buffalo would stop to
turn aside; but after few locomo-
tives had been ditched by the animals
the engineers got in the way OF re
speeting the butialoes idiosyucracies.
" Astonishing as was the number OF
buffalo which roamed the plains of
old, even more numerous were the an
telopc, though the later did not a..
tract as much attention as the larger
mammals. Besides these, the ehroni-
clgrs of the colonial days give many
interesting accounts Of the incredible
number Of other wild animals includ-
ing bears, wapiti, whitc.tailed deer and
turkeys. on which the wolves made
/ fierce war. One writer narrates that
during the winter Of 1901 fully 200
moose were shared on the Great Mani
toulin Island, at the head Of Lake HUI
