C5"A good story is told about an
old hunter, who used to trap about
Mootehcad Lake, by the name of I. His.
His reputation as a great bear hunter
extended far and wide. Several years
ago, when bearskins were very fash
ionablo for sleigh ropes, sportsmen
about tlio lako in tho fall would engago
one of Ellis; aud, as the old man' was
poor, would pay for it iu advance. He
had bargained for one in this way oue
year, and when the first mow came,
started ofr with his gun and soon came
upon Drum's track. He ran all day
without overtaking him, but encamped
upon his track that night, and early
tho next morning took upthescout nd
followed him all that day, with no bet
ter success than on tho tinnimi dm-
Tho third day found his aged limbs
stiff and sore; however, ho ma'lo an
other start and ran till well-nigh ex
hausted, when ho came iu sight of
mum, wno Had stopped lor a few mo
ments' refreshments, hut upou seeing
his nursuer started off auaiu at full
speed. Tho old man took aim and fired;
but Rruin did't stop. Feeling too far
gone to run another step, ho shouts
with all thoonorfrv nf distviir ! "Vnn
