HUNTER (By United Press) ‘Washington, Feb. 12..—The famous “Custer Wolf’* is dead. Shorn of sta- tistics, it is a stél'y of animal savag-| ery and cunning mnexcelled even in fiction,' For pine years the wolf terrorized ranches 100 miles about Custer, N. and escaped hunters and trnpperhf wflh such; uncanny elusjveness that legends of the range country endowed him-with''a monstrous craftiness-they gaid .could come_only of a sinister mating of wolf and-mountain lion. Department’ reports credited - him with sluymg $25,000 worth of Tive- stock,. He was herk one night, and to- m rrow, a hundréd-miles across the hills; he slaughtered a -dozen- cattle, muhhtmg them with wanton lustful- ness—a leg' Broken, a tail bitten off. The price on his head was raised from $100 to $500. Hunters shot at him only to miss or have their pieces fail. He carried: away traps and skirted poison bait dis. dainfully. Riders said he bore a charmed life, and they fingered their belts apprehensively at his ghoulish wail out of the night. Once stock- men ‘thought they had located him and called a round-up. The wolf es- caped. Four years ago he lost his mate. He never took another. Finally, in March! last year, H. P. Williams, government hunter, was ordered to the trail and not to return without the wolf. Wil- liams scented his shoes and began Iay< ing traps. ' The' old wolf, lured in| great excitement by what he thought, a possible mate, went to the Pelgnr| mountains, cleared out two old dens| and made a new one which ran 50| feet bacl: under the hill. On April 1, Williams sighted his quarry only to learn of new difficul- ties. The wolf had enlisted tivo coy- otes as guards, one traveling 100 to| 200 yards on either flank. Repeated; ly baffled by the guards, Williams shot them. The wolf escaped. Twice in ‘May the wolf sprung traps. « July 8 he lay down on one, Iosmg some hair, scuttling from the regmn like a gray ghost, but a mont later he turned, killing several cattld\ and crippling’ others. An accident saved him from Williams, In Septem- ber he lost some more hair in a tiap, but escaped. Seven months. dfter Williams took the'trail, the end came. The wolf's forefoot . picked up a trap. He tore it from its mooring. A hundred and fifty yards: away it caught on a trze, but he broke its swivel. beyond Williams: sighted. shoot, but it worked O. K, smaller than the . average weighed 98 pounds,” Willlams’ porte said.” “He is an old wolf, with fur that is almost white.” TURKISH TOWELS ARE ESSENTIAL 70, DRESS| By ‘“Marjorie. ” Written for The United Press New York, Feb 12.—Turkish tow- els will be an essential part of Mi-! lady’s street costume this spring.
