SAVE DEER FROM DROWNING
Animals Caught In Ice Floe Rescued
by Men in Rowboats.

The tragic adventure and rescue of
a mart of herd of IA deer was told
nv r. w. Campbell lighthouse keeper
nj Neebish Island, Mich.
The herd of IA deer swan the
channel In the river from Neebish is-
land toward Sugar island. Rounding
the lower end of the Neebish dixie
they found themselves in the Ice foe,
which extended 100 yards out from the
shore. Seven Of the does turned back
TO Neebish and reached shore safely.
The other seven kept on and made a
channel 90 feet long In the ice, upon
which they climbed, only to break
through time and again. Mr.. Camp
hell and his sons, In duck boat and
a rowboat, went to the rescue and
succeeded In getting four Of the deer
hack TO the dixie. The other three
drowned. Following the rescue the
men and deer lay exhausted on the
dixie together. A....

lous that she did not miss him arto-
gether. Her nerves were torn, their
control over her muscles largely gone.
Yet the bullet coursed down through
the lungs, infiicting mortal wound.
The wolf had leaped for her throats
but he fell short. She staggered from
a blow, and she heard curious sound
In the region of her hip. But she
didn't know that the fangs had gone
home In her soft flesh. The wolf
rolled on the ground; and If her pistol
had possessed the shocking power OF
a rifle, he would have never got up
again. AS ii was, he shrieked once
then sped off In the darkness TO die.
Five or six Of the nearest wolves,
catching the smell of his blood, bayed
and sped after him.
But the remainder of the great pack
fully Is of the gray, gaunt creatures
came stealing across the snow to-
ward her. White fangs had gone
home; and a new madness was in the
air.
.
Straining into the silence, perfect
ly straight line between Cranstons
camp and Snowbird's, Dan Failing
came mushlng across the snow. His
sense of direction had never been
obliged to stand such test as this
before. Snowbird's fire was single
dot on vast plateau; yet he had gone
straight toward It.

He tried to curse his adversary as a
weakling and degenerate, but the ob-

come 20 his lips. Here was his tate

Not even a footprint rewarded their
search, the dogs picked up no trail
at all, and toward morning heavy
rain added further encouragement to
a situation which to most of the
searchers began to appear hopeless.
They had found the mountain such
stiff climbing that number of men
dropped out of the search.

Dog Gives Chase.

John Foster, toward 5 o'clock In the
morning, was about to call his dog
and 90 down the mountain when the
dog spied a wild goat in the under
brush and made after 1t. The goat
went from rock TO rock at merry
pace, and Fosters young collie held
the chase until the goat had dlstanced
him completely.
Ultimately the collie stopped at the
edge of a cliff which loomed over
Fosters head, and from which, as Eos.
ter thought, the animal was unable
to make his way down. Al least he
made no attempt to return.
After a toilsome ascent Foster made
his way to where the collie stood, still
barking furiously And as Foster
reached the top of the cliff he found
little Henry standing there, wet
through with rain but full of cheer
and smiles and apparently with no no
ton that his absence from home had
cost any one wink of sleep.

To look down that well, gives

DOG HUNTS COAT
FINDS LOST BOY
Collie 0utCIimbS Searchers on
Mountain Side and His
Banks Summon Help.
WENT UP 1000 FEET
Little Fellow Happy After Night In
the Woods, but Unable TO Tell OF
Adventures and Hardshps
He Underwent.

Winsted, Conn.~-Henry Tammien,
years Old, and the son of farmer
living in the town of Colebrook, dis
appeared from his home one night
just before sunset. He was found
next morning two miles away from
his home standing at the edge OF .
cliff 1000 feet high.
The child's recovery alive is due
Immediately to collie, which was
out with a searching party and was
DETECTED from his duty by wild goat
which crossed his path. In following
the goat half way up mountain side
he saw the boy and his furious bark
ing was answered by the searching
party.
Was Not Afraid.
No one except the child knows
through what adventures and dangers
he passed that night, for he is too
young to give a connected account OF
his exploit and has SLEPT almost con
tinually ever since he was found. He
declares he did not sleep at all during
the night, but insists that he was not
afraid, and would like to spend a
night in the mountains again.
All the men and women who could
be spared from their homes near the
Tammien farm started out in search
of little Henry that night after his
father and mother had made frantic
attempts to learn by telephone If any
one had seen the child. The search
was conducted in thorough and sys-
tematic fashion and the mountainside
was assigned to a party composed OF
the youngest and most active men.
Such men as had good dogs took them
along.
They spent all night in the woods
which line the mountainside, built
several fires to show the child where
they were, and from time to time
called his name with megaph0nes.
