they are of a very light grey color, or 
almost white. 
The question of the species of these 
sheep is of interest to those who care for 
such things. I have had no experience 
whatever with the white sheep known as 
the Dali, but from information obtained 
from others there must be more or less 
grey in their color, and, if this is the fact, 
there are, in so far as color is considered, 
but two species of sheep in the far north, 
namely the Dali and the Stone. 
The number of these sheep now in the 
various museums of this country is ample 
to definitely settle the question. The his- 
tory, habits and ranges of the various 
species of mountain sheep in North 
America is sufficient in interest and im- 
portance to justify a monograph as com- 
plete as Mr. J. A. Allen prepared upon 
the bisons. The mountain sheep is food 
for the trapper, prospector and miner in 
the mountains of the north just as the 
buffalo was food for the frontiersman, 
wagon-train driver and settler on the 
plains. Many sportsmen have expressed 
the hope that Mr. Charles Sheldon be 
identified with such a monograph. He 
is well qualified for the task.

us as if turned into stone. Their four 
eyes flashing with the aqua marine spark 
so noticeable in moose eyes. It was only 
when we shut off the light and told them 
in a friendly way to go home and mind 
their business that they finally turned 
tail and left us. By this time it was 
late — we were both tired and very cold, 
so we made for our camp and warmth 
and supper. And when later on, thawed 
and dried and refreshed, we looked out 
to take stock of the night, and forecast 
the morrow’s weather, the Northern 
Lights streamed across the sky as if to 
welcome the advent of another spirit 
moose to the Happy Hunting Grounds. 
The next morning we had no difficulty 
in locating the moose I had shot and he 
proved to have a good pair of antlers.
