Catches Sight Of Wolf
"on April I. williams had his first
glimpse OF the wolf. but was unable
to get a shot at him. The coyotes
were acting as bodyguards. travel.
ing from 100 to 200 yards on the
flanks OF their master. They would
warn him OF danger by taking flight.
For a while. Williams did not shoot
the coyotes. hoping that he would
get n chance at the wolf without hav.
ing to give him warning by the shots
that would be necessary 10 dispatch
his bodyguard. Finally, realizing
that there was no chance OF getting
at the wolf unless the coyotes were
killed. Williams shot them. hoping
that he then had a clear field. In
this he was greatly mistaken. The
wolf played hide and seek with him.
After making a kill, he would go
on some distance. back trail for a
few rods to a point where he could
keep under cover and watch the
hunter on his trail. Though this Is a
common habit OF bear. | have never
before known n wolf TO do Il. II was
on April 90 that Mr.. Williams first
found the wolf was doing this. At
other times the wolf took 20 fallen
timber and so could not be tracked.
Twice during May the wolf step
ped on the Jaws OF traps. and on
the night OF July 3 he rolled into
or lay down on one and had lot OF
his hair pulled out. This gave him
such a scare that he left the coun-
try for a while. No sign could be
found OF him near Custer until the
night OF August /, when he made
his presence known by killing several
head OF cattle and wounding several
more. williams found some OF these
cattle, took the trail OF the wolf, and
followed him all day on a fresh track.
This led up TO the month OF a can.
yon. and. knowing that the wolf
would be taking a sleep after his
big feed, Williams tied his horse and
started in. Just then two horse
men came up, riding at breakneck
speed and calling TO Williams that
they had found a yearlIng steer kill
ed by the wolf. Williams motloned
them to go back. but they did not
what he meant and he
was forced to return to meet them.
Thus. he lost the best chance he ever
had OF getting the wolf with a rifle.
When he returned 10 the trail. he
'ound the place where the wolf had
bedded down TO sleep. The noise
made by the horsemen had given him

animal world.
Throughout the region arouid
Custer, South Dakota, that day, the
telephone lines wero buster than
they were on the day the armistico
was signed.
For nine years this wolf had lived
as an outlaw--thc cruelest, the most
sagacious. the most successful ant
nal outlaw that the range country
had ever known. His cruelty was
surpassed only by his cunning. He
killed with the refinement OF animal
ferocity. Here tonight-tomorrow
night he devasted range half
hundred miles away.
Showed Uncanny Cunning
He loped through every kind OF
danger and spurned them all. He
shifted at the subtlest poison and
passed Il by. The most adroitly
concealed trap was as clear 20 him
as a mirror in tho sunshine. Old
hunters, unerring shots, drew the
bead on him and saw him glide away
unharmed. The price on his head
was $500. Bounty hunters sought
him for profit. sportsmen put forth
every device to slay him for reputa-
tion's sake. And still the old wolf
went unscathed about his work OF
destruction.
Credulous people said he was
charmed thing. Others attributed
his immunity TO a wisdom greater
than beast ever before possessed.
stili others said he escaped by plain
luck-the mysterious thing that ad-
heres TO some animals as to some
men. In whatever way they ex-
planned his uncanny elusiveness, ev-
erybody feared him-perhaps not
consciously. very rarely openly. but
there was no man throughout that
region who did not feel n shiver
run down his spine.
And then came the message that
the hunter sent by the department
Of agriculture TO protect the live
stock industry. had killed the Grim
inal wolf. That word ended a nine
years reign OF dread, during which
the stockmen around Custer had
paid tribute TO this wolf TO the ex-
tent OF $4,000 worth OF livestock.
And mere money loss was not the
whole OF the horrible toll he took.
When he killed for food he took
only the choicest animals. but some
times he killed in atroeious ways for
the mere sake OF killing. Often he
wounded cattle, breaking their legs.
biting off their tails. mutilating
them in unspeakabie ways.
Four years ago his mate was
killed. He never took another. and
many people supposed that he de-
voted himself TO revenge for her
death. Later on, he attached to
himself two coyotes, not as equals.
but as servants. He never permit
ted them TO come near him, and
they could feed from his kills only
after he himself had finished. They
travelled far out on his flanks, Civ
ing him warning Of ambush or ap-
preaching danger and adding to the
atmosphere Of mystery that sur
rounded him.
