Ben Loneman Roped
And Captured Eagle
Ben Lonemap of Little Eagle Roped
and Captured Live Eagle Recently
Near His S. D. Home

Ben Loneman Of Little Eagle was
a Fort Yates visitor on business at
the Agency last Saturday, and
while in town confirmed the report
that he recently roped an eagle. 1t
happened about three weeks ago
when he was on his way home from
Bullhead.
He noticed the eagle feeding on
the carcass Of steer, and made up
his mind to catch the national brit.
1t is well known among the Indians
that an eagle can fly only a short
distance after a heavy feed. which
proved true in this case as the eagle
would get up and light repeatedly
after short flights.
He spurred his mount and final
w succeeded in throwing his lariet
and getting the loop around the
neck and one wing. Then a tussle
began, and Ben says the eagle made
Il harder struggle than a big calf.
He finally succeeded in getting his
mackinaw over the eagles head and
his feet tied without injury to the
bird which has q wing spread of
over 10 feet.
The eagle is now on exhibition at
Mclaughlin, having been bought
by George Brlden, and anyone who
doubts the story or challenges Ben
l-oneman's claim Of being the
champion roper of both North and
South Dakota can verify this yarn
by personal view of the eagle
anytime occasion brings the doubter
ito Mclaughlin.
