has been replaced for hunting purposes with 



a Savage .303. He still thinks a great deal 

 of the old gun, and tells of his first day's 

 hunting with it for elk, when 17 fell to its 

 unerring aim. On four different occasions 

 he has killed 3 bears with it in one day. 

 Cooke is one of those indefatigable hunters, 

 who will camp on the trail of a silver-tip in 



weather far below zero, with nothing but a 

 biscuit in his pocket, and a tin can tied to 

 his -addle to make- coffee in. An expert on 

 the ski, he frequently take- long trips in the 

 Winter time in pursuit of game. R. \V. 

 Hill, of Elyria. O.. told the readers of Rec- 

 reation, a year ago, how he and Cooke 

 Rhea got a fine silver-tip in the fall of 1897.
