American Big-Game Hunting 



The exhibit was put in charge of Elwood Hofer, 

 of the Yellowstone National Park. On June 15 

 it was formally opened with a club dinner, at which 

 a number of the gentlemen connected with the 

 World's Fair were present as guests. 



Big-game hunters visiting the Fair must have 

 been especially struck with the colossal figures of 

 moose, elk, bison, bear, and cougar which guard the 

 various bridges; some are by Proctor, and some by 

 Kemys. Well worthy of notice likewise were the 

 groups of mounted big game in the Government 

 Building, and those put up by Mr. L. L. Dyche in 

 the Kansas State Building.
