rapidly In that section, according to q
game census of the United States for
estry department.
w. T. Sweet, one Of Butte's best
known sportsmen, is authority for the
statement that lion will kill, on an
average, two deer, elk or moose each
week. Sweet said further:
'The local sportsmen are very CRATE
full to the Murray brothers for their
efforts in eliminating these killers. 1t
Is a man-sized job, travelling over
rough and almost impossible noun
tains, fallen timber and deep snow,
and only the hardest Of men could
stand it. Roy Murray last year tracked
a big tom for seven days before catch
ing up with it, playing out several
horses. The lions travel great distances
and are on the go almost all the time,
except after they have made a kill,
when they are apt to lay around for
q day or two. They want fresh, warm
meat and very rarely viii return 30
an old kill"

with a friendly band who didn't want
to leave the white camp. One man In
the party, Brown, had 1ugged along
a whipSaw spending much time and
effort keeping it balanced on his pack
horse; he was determined to be ready
for job supplying lumber should gold
be found and camp established He
finally left it leaning against a tree
at point within the present southern
boundary of Yellowstone park, declar-
ing that he had packed the damned
thing far enough"
Sept. 6 Colonel de Lacy and his
party came upon a large lake which
some believed might be Yellowstone
others were certain it flowed into the
Madison river. The party explored the
south end until they found 1t drained
to the south, obviously into the Snake
river where the explorers nd left 1t.
This was rather a plEzzler until Colonel
de Lacy later learned that they had
come up branch of the Snake, while
the larger lake flowed into Lewis lake
and then down the main stream.
From this time on, all maps Of the
United States surveyor general carried
the name OF Lake de Lacy for this body
Of water until the official exploration
Of Yellowstone park.
From Lake de Lacy the expedition
continued IN general northerly direc-
ton, coming into the F1rehole valley
at the lower GeySer basin las they are
known today where the men saw for
the first time geysers of hot pools in
action. They continued down the Fire
hole to its junction with the Gibbon
to form the Madison. Not knowing the
lay Of the country, they believed they

After turning up the South Snake
from the forks the party began pros
pecting in likely spots at night camps,
and for longer periods where con-
siderable territory might be explored
and prospected No profitable gold was
found. The party did, however. learn
much about the country which en-
