ness, and rendered access to the re-
mote frontier not so difficult as
formerly. PaxOn has given an excel
lent description of it, which I quote:
''The mails that hurried along the
road carried letters from Washing
ton to Wheeling in the unheard of
time Of thirty hours, and to Indian
apOlis in sixty-five hours and a half.
The whole political population of
Washington that came from the west

cinnati or Louisville, assembled the
Ohio to Wheeling, and there took

foot. From that time it was an easy
matter to track her, following a mid
night feast OF a choice beef that she
had killed on her night rambles. Her
natural cunning and wisdom gained
through many years Of evading traps
AMI rifles saved her from death on
numerous occasions, until for the
past several months she has been the
only wolf left in that section.
Brannin used all the varied tricks
of his profession to catch this cattle
killer, but seemingly was OutWitted

that her pelt was worthless on &C

off in squeezing in and out of the

Cripple Foot" during her career
in the eBlt mountain territory, is
estimated to have cost the stockmen
around $40, 900. She was about II
years old and extra large in size.
During the eighteen months that
Mr.. Brannin has been located at the
Waite ranch he has killed 26 wolves

mated that about $500 damage is

trict are highly pleased with the re.
suits he has achieved and are going

odd Cripple Foot" Cattle Killer
of The Belt Mountain Country,
Is Finally Out1Uitted by Trapper

~ Id CRIPPLE FOOT for many
years wolf queen Of the Belt
mountains, CutIaWed by all
stockmen and with a price on her
head, will roam the hills no more.
Barney Brannin, dean of predatory
animal hunters in Montana and who
for the past Is months has been sta
toned at the Waite ranch in the Belt
mountain district, ended her career
with a shot from his rifle a few weeks
ago.
For two weeks previously, Brannin
had been hiding out in the hills ev-
cry day, laying under snOwbanks and
behind rocks, trying to catch a
glimpse Of Cripple Foot" while she
was going to or from her den. He
suspected her den was in Dead Mans
cOulee, seven miles south Of the
Waite home ranch and about three
miles southeast of the Joe Hopkins
place, but could not locate it. Fin
ally he struck her tracks in the fresh
snow early one morning, and on the
chance that she might be headed for
her lair, trailed her for five miles.
The trail led to a small, craftily con-
cealed hole in the rocks, almost hid
den below a pile of logs. The trap
per dismOUnted to inspect the den,
and the wolf Immediately started to
charge out. Brannin had left his
rifle on his saddle and had no time
to get it, so he started kicking dirt
and stones into the tunnel mouth to
drive the wolf back. She kept right
on coming until finally he got hold
of a big rock and hurled it at her just
before she reached the entrance, hit
ting her in the mouth, cutting a big
cash, and Cripple Foot" finally
backed into her den. Brannin theI
prevented her escape by stuffing his
coat and chaps in the entrance anC
after securing a shovel, dug a hole
into her den from the top. She agar
charged out the opening, but BranniI
was ready with his rifle this time anC
he let her come, and one shot ended
the reign of this killer.
Two pups were in the den anC

1t will be remembered that a per-

for by the Government, with it's east
ern boundary extending from the

country to the northwest corner of
the Territory Of Missouri, with the
Indians on side, and the whites
on the other. Then trouble arose
