imitate with such marvelous fidelity the 
wailing anxious, supplicating cry of the 
cow, that the bull, unable to resist, rushes 
out from the friendly cover of the trees, 
and exposes himself to death. Or it may 
be that the most accomplished caller fails 
to induce the suspicious animal to show 
himself; the more ignoble passion of jeal¬ 
ousy must then be aroused. The Indian 
will grunt like an enraged bull, break dead 
branches from the trees, thrash his birch- 
bark horn against the bushes, thus making 
a noise exactly like a moose fighting the 
bushes with his antlers. The bull cannot 
bear the idea of a rival, and, casting his 
prudence to the winds, not unfrequently 
falls a victim to jealousy and rage. 
HE hunter calls through his horn, first 
gently, in case there should be a bull 
very near. He then waits a quarter 
of an hour or so, and if, he gets no an¬ 
swer, calls a little louder, waiting at least 
a quarter of an hour—or half an hour 
some Indians say is best—after each at¬ 
tempt. It is very noticeable that the most 
successful moose callers are not those who 
use the horn the loudest or most frequently. 
The cry of the cow is a long-drawn-out 
melancholy sound, impossible to describe 
by words. The answer of the bull-moose, 
on the contrary, is a rather short guttural 
grunt, and resembles at a great distance the 
sound made by an ax-chopping wood, or 
that which a man makes when pulling hard 
at a refractory clay pipe. You continue 
calling at intervals until you hear an an¬ 
swer, when your tactics depend upon the 
way in which the animal acts. Great acute¬ 
ness of the sense of hearing necessary, be¬ 
cause the bull will occasionally come up 
without answering at all; and the first 
indication of his presence consists of the 
slight noise he makes in advancing. Some¬ 
times a bull will come up with the most 
extreme caution; at others, he will come 
tearing up through the woods, as hard as 
he can go, making a noise like a steam- 
engine, and rushing through the forest ap¬ 
parently without the slightest fear. 
On the particular occasion which I am 
recalling, it was a most lovely evening. It 
wanted but about half an hour to sun¬ 
down, and all was perfectly still. There 
was not the slightest sound of anything 
moving in the forest, except that of the 
unfrequent flight of a moose-bird close 
by. And so I sat watching that most glo¬ 
rious transformation scene—the change of 
day into night; saw the great sun sink 
slowly down behind the pine trees; saw the 
few clouds that hovered motionless above 
me blaze into the color of bright burnished 
gold; saw the whole atmosphere become 
glorious with a soft yellow light, gradually 
dying out as the night crept on, till only in 
the western sky there lingered a faint 
glow, fading into a pale cold apple-green, 
against which the pines stood out as black 
as midnight, and as sharply defined as 
though cut out of steel. As the darkness 
deepened; a young crescent moon shone out 
pale and clear, with a glittering star a little 
below the lower horn, and above her an¬ 
other star of lesser magnitude. It looked 
as though a supernatural jewel—a heavenly 
pendant, two great-diamond solitaires, and 
a diamond crescent—were hanging in the 
western sky. After a while, the moon, too, 
sank behind the trees, and darkness fell 
upon the earth.
