We have had a fine open winter. Deer, 

 elk and antelope came through in good 

 shape. A bunch of over 200 elk wintered 

 within a mile of my ranch. We often saw 

 them feeding on the hills where the 3 now 

 was blown off. Soon deer and antelope 

 will be coming in, as they go South across 

 Green river. Antelope are plentiful here, 

 in summer and fall, and one can see thou- 

 sands of them in an hour's ride. There 

 are a great many mountain lions and bob 

 cats around, but one needs a good trailing 

 dog to get them. 

 W. G. Warren, Echo Dell Ranch, Wyo. 



South Park and the Snowy Range moun- 

 tains used to be a great hunting ground for 

 antelope, buffalo, deer and elk. The only 

 thing remaining of the buffalo are the 

 bleached and weather-beaten horns which 

 are found in abundance around here. The 

 few antelope that have escaped the murder- 

 ous and brutish greed of the detestable 

 game hog are protected by law; but what 

 good does the law do if no officers are there 

 to enforce it? There are still a number of 

 deer and elk around but they are rapidly, 

 diminishing. Bob cats are fairly abundant 

 among the mountains of the Snowy range. 

 Snipe and ducks are numerous on the South 

 Platte. Mohegan, Alma, Col. 



If the North Pole is discovered, 

 (But it won't be, so we're told,) 



No one will dare to climb it where 

 The climate is so cold. 



Boy (to sea captain who has a reputation 

 to maintain) — Did you ever get your leg 

 bit off by a shark? 



Captain — Did I? Well, rather. Dozens 

 of times! — Tit-Bits. 



Julia — What's a stag party? 



Jane — As I understand it, one in which 

 the dear men are both the stags and the 

 staggerers. — Cleveland Leader.
