Hardwick, who was wanted in Minnehaba county, South Dakota, to answer to the charge of seling diseased meat. This crime is merely a misdemeanor by the laws of South Dakota and the ques tion arose whether Governor Boies could legally grant & requisition, the law of lowa allowing him o ask requisition from the governors of other states only 1n cases where the indi vidual desired is charged with treason or felony. Upon makivg an investigation the attorney general came to the conclusion that as the United States law provides that a governor of one state may issue a requisition upon the governor of auother state for the return of a person charged with treason, folony or other crime, aud as there was noth ing in the statutes of South Dakota to pro- vent the issuance of a requisition in the present caso, tho question of what the lowa laws contained in regard to the matter was immutorial. The requisition was aceordingly issued and Hardwick is now in the hands of the South Dakota auttorities, Tickets for Eli Perkins® lecture, Feb- ruary 13, are on sale at the drug stove of O. H.

Daviels and another lightning rod man named Butler gave a pugilistic exhibi- tion about midnight Saturday night in the Pacific house saloon that proved to be about as interosting, both to the combatants and the spectators, as anything in the line that has been witnessed for some time. It ap- peara thatthe two men did a job in the east end of the county sowe tine ago in partner ship, it being agreed between them that the spoils, which amounted to a couple of hundred dollars, should be divided equally. Dauniols claimed that Butler jammed the entive proceeds down in his jeaus, without making the division, aud a cool- ness consequently sprang up betwoen them. A few days ARO Butler worked up a bargain with a man named Leland, who lives in the eastern part of the county, and Was about Lo commence the worik of putting up the rods, when Dauniels heard of it und told Leland, who happenec to be a friond of s, that he must look out or Butler would do him up. Leland consequentiy backed out of the bargain. The two men had not seen each other since the last named occurrence, and when they mot in tno saloon there was an immediate crash. Both are strapping fellows, and when their fists col lided with each other's noses blood flowed freely, The spectators urged them on, and it was fully fifteon minutes before each onc decided he had had enough and was content to have it a drawn fight.

After an unsuccessful attempt 1o locate the guilty party Le went to the League rooms along with a party of friends to play billiaras, Dur- ing the prograss of the game the subject of the lost hat was again brought up and & number of remarks were made by the other men, some of which reflected on the hat ana others ou the moral status of its owner. Askwith became enraged at one of the latter which was made by Wickham and struck him a heavy blow on the cheek with his clenched fist. Wickham raised a billiard cueand retorted with telling effect. Ask- with _drew knife, so Wickham claims, and would have probably done something serious had not some of the bystandsrs rushed in and prevented any gore from being shea, The plug hat has boen lmd aside for the time being. ———— rly Closi Untit further notice our store will be closed at 6 o’clock p. m., except Satur- days and Mondays.

T was an inveterate deer A blizzard corraled my game. the deer out of the open ies. They were obliged to seek shelter in the groves or thickets of hazel, thorn, crab apple and wild plum, As [ knew all these harbors of refuge within a circuit of twenty miles, the blizzard saved me a good deal of tramp- ing. It rounded up all the deer ranging over the boundless prairvie, and herded them in places where [ could readily find them. In these hunts, as in all other deer hunting, I was obliged to face the wind, therefore squarely received the full force of the bli Deer Stalking, ints The only tedious business hunting was the advance into the grov or the thicket. The deer lie with their noses to the windward, trusting to be in- formed by their keen seuse of smell of any dapger approaching from that di- rection, while their acute hearing gives them notice of an enemy advancing from the leeward. Ose’s advance must bo ab- solutely noiseless. Not a twig must snap. It is a step and a halt, a step and a halt until the game is sighted.

The deer does not see well in the full glare of the duy. When aman stands perfectly motionless, the deer cannot make out wheter he sees a man or merely a stump. Butasingle step ov movement informs him of the nature of the object, and he is off.

No sound comes to sjecting and gently waving ears. The thing is a puzzle. As it don’t move it must be a stump.

Soon, how- ever, the strange object again enters his mind.

[ had only to wear n white blanket overcoat and carry a cow bell to drown the noise un- avoldably made while making my sev- eral advances, Uncle John to the Rescue, IPresh from the settlements east of the Mississippi, and full of the spirit of about six gencrations of mighty hunters of *Old \lrumm and the ¥ state, I made a rush for m ) tut!”'cried my uncle, laying his hand on my shoulder, “let the poor things go. Why should thee disrurb them in the shelter they are struggling so hard to reach? We are not in want of meat or food of any kind, Thee cannot think of taking advantage of the poor creutures in their time of trouble?’ **No, Uncle John. You are right. I'll give 'em a fair show—-but they’ve got to look out as soon as the crust is off the snow!"” Many, howaver, did not give them a fair show. Not a few smong the new settlors went out on horsebeck—shield- ing the legs of their horses with band- ages—and slaughteved the poor deer ight and left. This slaughter so alurmed an old pioneer hunter that he feared the utter extermination of the noble game. He and his sons took the fleld for the preservation of the deer. They caught twenty-five and placing them in a big corral fed them till grass started in the spring when they turned them out on the prairies. The next winter, at a time when there was a bad the next in your Then you i You may play tricks | ! | + dead, crut on tho snow, two of these deer came back to the old man to be fed.

At first I supposed this occurred only when hit in the heart while running at full speed, but once when seated in a tree watching a trail, I shot a deer that was standing stock still. F'rom my perch I could see its every movement. At the crack of my rifle it ran away at full d with ‘flag” up as though un- ed. I was about beginning to call myself names, when the animal leaped high in the air, turned completely over, and fell dead. My bullet had lodged in its heart. Old backwoodsmen say that after being shot through the heart a deer will run as long as it can hold its breath. “Do Deer Ever Shed Tears?" Not long ago an 1tem headed with the above query was going the rounds. It was said that Shakespeare spoke of a dying stag shedding tears. This was thought to be a thing not of fact, but poetical license. But Shakespeare was right. Isaw the thing once and I did not get over it for a week, It took away my deer hunting appetite. Firing at long range I had broken the back of a fine doe. When I reached hershe reared herself upon her fore legs. but otherwise was utterly helpless. 1 drew my hunt- ing knife across her throat and while biceding to death she fixed her great dewy eyes upon me. Big round tears coursed down her cheeks. Then of a sudden her legs gave way and she fell At that time I had never heard of o deershedding tears in dying. I was astonished and grieved. It worried me.

On the prairies were elk, deer and millions of prairie chickens, while the heavy timber along the large streams was full of wild Lul'l\o s, squir rels, partridges and other small game, On one occasion that_occurs to me I found more game than I wanted, 1 was stalking a small herd of three or foyr deer in the open prairie. The upland grass was only about a foot in height and not a sheltering bush or hillock wus to be found. My only chance for a shot lay in my ability to “snake it” through the grass, and to do that I was obliged to hug the ground and make myself as flat as o puff adder. After an hour’s work, which left most of my vest buttons behind along my wail, T was within 200 yards of my game, had a fine Kentucky rifle, but it carried a small ball I was not sure of a deer with it at a greater distance than 150 yards, thorefore I must erawl a farther distance than fifty yards. The deer were quietly feeding and quite unaware of my presence. The leader was a noble buck., He was to be my mark and my meat. Another fifty yards and 1'd drop him. resumed crawling chickens began flying up all about me by paivs, half dozens and dozens. The noise of their wings attracted the atten- tion of the deer, but did not frighten them. Atevery move I made up would come more chickens. I think I routed about a thousand before they ceased to rise. The old buck did not much like the alurm among the chicks. He took several long looks in my direction and apparently gave the mutter somo seri- ous study, When' rid of the chickens T again bean dragging my **slow length” along.

In an instant he arose with a great thunder of wing, and sailed away townrd the vearest timber, My old buck gave a whistle of alarm and instantly all in the herd were gaz- ing in my direction. They seemed to tand the turkey v well,and did re for it. The question with them was what manner of creature was thus putting to flight all winged things in a d tion to leeward.

It was unusual to find a wild (m-ln\y out in the open prairie. = It just hap- pened that this one old fellow was for ome renson passing between the main timbor of a large creek and a big ouk grove out in the open. After the turkey alarm I again began crawling forward. Twenty yards more and I would be sure of my buck. I was steering for a little bunch of rosin-weed (the compass plant) behivd which I might raise my head to taie nim. At last I was within ten fee of the weeds when *whiz, whiz, whir,’t went a rattlesnake within a fow feet o my nose. He was in coil ready for busf iness. I had only to “touch the button’ to have him do the rest. I threw little clods of dirt at him but, he would not move, With head swu ing, eyes gleaming and tail whizzing he stood his ground. I then waited about ten minutes, hoping he would uncoil and go about his business. But, no, his business was just before him. 1 moved a finger his tail was instantly in the air and his ugly triangular head swaying. On his account I no longer dared to so much as turn my eyes toward my buck. As the darkey said of the mule [ *gpized” the snake, but he had the drop on me. Drawing the ramrod from my gun I tickled him with the end of it for a time. This seomed quite satis to him, as it gave him mmulmw to bite at. Finding that after each )\m-'(, ho made he waus working up on me, I was soon obliged to back out and make a circuit of about twenty-five feet to s plant, little herd of deer had moved toward me and were now within 125 yards. 1 soon tumbled over my buck, but I had been a long time in getting at him—game was justa little too plentiful. More Tricks of the Hu er's Tra It is always better to spond two or three hours "in swalking deer sighted than to make a rush and then te obliged to strike out and hunt up another herd, In the open, deer may sometimes be brought within range by showing them a woolen mitten, a cap or some such ob- ject on the end of a ramrod. The curi- osity of the animul must be excited, but they must not be allowed to see too much of the object. In their euriosity they ure very much more cautious than antelope. A false move or a move too much and away they go. en while influenced by their curiosity deer ad- vance very slowly toward the object which has’excited it. The old buck of the herd takes the lead. Every forty or fifty yards they halt. The buck stanps with his fore feet, hoping to pm\nkulho object to come out of its piace of con- cealment by his challenge. So long as he thus challenges he is under the spell, but he must see less and less of the ob- ject bobbing about on the hand or ram- rod as he draws near. On the prairie grows a curious known as “tumble-weed” or ‘‘rolly- bolly.” It isa dense mass of twigs and leaves of globular form and two or three feet in dinmeter. It hag but a single root stalk, and after the first heavy frost in autumn this breaks off in the first wind, when the head goes bounding over the prairie like a little balloon, scatteving its seed far and wide, fm which purpose it is *‘built that way. As the deer suw hundreds of these tum- ble-weeds rolling about the prairies they bad no fear of them, therefore in stalk- ing a herd in the open good use could be made of the queer piants. They made u fine nmlublu shield or “blind.” As a “rolly-bolly” three feet in diameter weighed only a few ounces, a hunter could hold it'iu one hand, and stooping low, could creep quite rapidly upon a herd of feeding deer. kven the most cunning old buck never got so far along in his veasoning as to think strange of seeing a tumble-weed coming up against the wind. I several times tried advanc- ing upon deer erect with two big tumble-weeds strung on a stick, but it wouldn’t do, old buck would stand one “'rolly-bolly,” but two would not go with him. J. H.
