Alone; In the early nineties, two
prospectors in the circle district
were greatly troubled by nHtives com
Ing to Iheir eabln and always asking
for something to eat. With surpris
ing accuracy, they seemed to know
(Then dure whs a big feed on and
would invariably show up at the right
time.
Like most prospectors, and espe
cially those cf that early date, their
supply of grub was none too stronn
to carry them ihru the long winter,
and It oon became very apparent
that something had to be done with
the native question. Even so, and
with this grub shortage staring them
In the face, their good old Pioneer
hospitality would not allow them to
refuse run a native if they thought
him hungry, let the consequences
be what tiny might.
About the middle of November
they killed a moose, and with that
lenging that stays by every man at
this season, no matter how far he
may have wandered from the home
fireside, they wanted a big dinner on
Thanksgiving day and decided to
have It. Accordingly, the moose's
nose (which is the most choice j;i rt
of the moose) was put aside for the
occasion.
Their neighbors, three prospectors
down the creek, were invited up and
arrived in Kood time on Thanksgiv
ing day. The big feed was soon all
ready, and certainly it was a big
feed. There was sourdough bread
six inches thick, and butter; there
were sourdough ilouKiiuu..-. almost as
thick, rolled in sugar; there was a
layer cake made of sourdough and
Lamont s Crystali.e d Eggs with Ea
gle Milk thlokned with sugar, for fil
ling; and the good old duff. that
duff we have all eaten so often
made of dried peaches and sourdough
boiled in a sack for three hours and
served with lemon sauce made of
citric acid; Its running mate, the
mince pie, was not overlooked, with
its crust shortened with bear grease
and moose tallow, and filled with
dried applet) chopped with moose
meat, and whisky made at Circle
City for seasoning Instead of Three
Star Rennessy. But the most deli
cious dish of all was the Mulligan.
They Bmacked their Hps with antici
pation, and why net? When a fel
low has a Mulligan made with moose
nose, kings may -well sit up and take
notice. As the big granite bucket,
well blackened by many a camp fire,
was set In the ceenter of the table,
the warm steam wafted forth the
scent of evaporated onions to tickle
the sense of smell, and there were
big fat sourdough dumplings float
ing around on top that fairly mude
the eye water. No real pioneer
would wait for p second Invitation as
the cook sain; &u .- ou, boys; th
at it." As they dipped deep into
the bucket they brought up heaping
spoonfuls of boiled rice, shelled bar
ley tmd granulated potatoes, well
mixed with evaporated soup vegeta
bles. Suddenly the door opened and
one of the boys, looking up, said.
"'Well, here they are." Sure,eiiuf

"bye-em-bye eu" and on second
thought addeel: "Bye-em-bye every
body eat, fine." He smacked his
liUB to Imp re: a the natives with the
extra quality of the dinner. Which
action brought forth grins iThel also
grunts of satisfaction, and the bucks
squatted themselves on the floor, and
the squaws, with a forward duck,
slipped the babies from un:ier fhelr

Stood around ai the elbows of the

the br.ys look hard at their plates.
New the fellows had expt.wd just
what had happened and bting, like'
all pioneers, fond of pne-tical Joke,
hael prepared for them. In the tall

the top or a little knoll years be

by the rive r, and lay 00 the bar be

A few days before Thanksgiving as
ene of the boys was making the da
lly round of his rabbit snares. he
piek.d up one of these skulls, slip
ped it into his parka front and tak
ing it to the cabin, put it deun
near the stove, casually eeevering It
with a caribou skm which was usenl
as a rug to keep the wind from blow
ing in under the eloor.
As si. .hi as the meal wa finished
the cook set the granite bucket,
whieh still euntained much Mulligan,
