THE snow had fallen heavily Jn northern % lifI " PennsSivania , aud s just after daybreak % -z5t - three men were 'K , * pulling a sledge * & /g 33 along the edge of W * = 2 Laurel Ridge. They were timber crui sers , employed by lumber companies to locate tracts of white pine and places for the winter camps. This work had been done , and they were returning to the banks of the Sinnemahoning to do some hunting be fore going home for the Christmas festivities. The leader , John Mellon , a man of 45 , had been in the business for twenty I years , and was one of the best woods men in the state. Rodgers , an. ex- soldier , , was also a master of wood craft , while the youngest , Max Baum , Mellon's nephew , was only 18 , and came from Philadelphia. All were good shots. They were now twelve miles from camp , in an old deserted cabin on the Sinnemahoning. On the way they had killed a bear and two turkej's. The hindquarters of the bear and the two turkeys were to furnish the Christ- [ mag dinner , and nH were packed on the Hied. * : Boys , " said Mellon , ' * we did a mighty foolish thing to leave the offal of that bear on the ground. We had oughter hung it up. The hard weather in the mountains has driven the wolves this way , and they may track us. Look at the dogs ; I believe they smell danger. I was treed once by gray wolves in Potter , county and lost three of the best bear dogs I ever owned. They was eaten right before my eyes , and I don't hanker after sich a thing agin. Holy Moses ! Stop ! Warn't that a wolf howl ? Sure. Max , keep the dogs from goin' back , an' let's light out. There's an old hay yard some where here , and we'll make for it. " The snow was falling in big flakes , there was no wind , and they could hear that long , plaintive howl , unlike anything else that falls on a hunter's ear. The hair on the dogs stood up , and they plunged through the snow , almost upsetting Max. "Thank the Lord. Here it is. Pull like hosses. " A hundred yards away was a stack of meadow hay that had been left there years before by lumbermen. It was surrounded by a strong stake and rider fence made of heavy poles , to keep the deer out , and was about twenty-five feet across. "Quick ; take off the rider ; throw the dogs in ! Raise the sled ; heave ! That's -right. Now the axes. Let's cut some of these spruces and pack the brush agin the fence. " ' The axes flew , and in ten minutes the work was done. Guns were examined and then came a wait. "I only hear two , " said Rodgers. "Maybe that's all there is. " "More like forty , " replied Mellon. "It's only the leaders that make a noise. See , thar comes the head of the pack , running our trail. Blast the dogs ! Their yelling excites the brutes. " The dogs were tearing at the bars , and , though well thrashed , it did no good. The leading wolf had smelt them and slunk into a bush. For a moment there was a blank silence , and then came an appalling chorus. /ftrl is / • - "LET 'EM HAVE IT. " " "Great Scott ! All the wolves in Elk county must be after us. Don't shoot over forty yards , and don't waste am munition. We can't know how long they'll hold us up. Thunder ! Thar's the pup loose ! " Sure enough , the youngest dog had chewed the deerskin tug in two , mount ed the fence and charged up the road. He had not gone forty yards when a wolf two and a half feet high at the shoulder darted from the brush. The stanch hound had him by the throat in a second , and threw him. That was his last act A dozen of the pack : rushed in and covered the fighters. I : How their bushy tails wagged , and the 1 men could hear their steel jaws clash. "Now , men , let 'em have it ! " and the ; guns cracked ; but , becoming infuriated ; by the smell of blood , and , ferocious 1 with hunger , the pack tore the flesh of j their dead mates. Again a volley was , fired into the mass. Then they broke j and plunged into the timber. Eleven lay dead and wounded. Mel lon had a double rifle , Max a double- barrel , loaded with buck , aad Rodgers 1 Springfield. 1 "Wolf pelts is worth $3 apiece , but < [ wouldn't have lost that dog for all the hides 'twixt this and the York line. J Warn't he game ? " said Mellon. 1 "Them pelts won't be worth a bit i ipiece , Mellon. They'll eat 'em all before - ( fore they leave. Hear ! There's new anes coming every minute. " t And so it proved. A wave of black ind gray came down the road in full 1 : ry and threw themselves on the re- < ! a 1 11 I' 1 ' tmummmm ' ,1. , , h i.i i h , . . . . , . ' ' ' " 'I ' ' * * " - * I IL I ! ! J .41 11 .1 WBMsMs MWW lMMs MMMM mains. Even the hardy hunters felt a tremor. What chance would they have If these gray demons scaled the fence ? It took three point-blank volleys to drive them back. The wounded howled and bit themselves ia frenzy. Although an hour's respite was -given , there were evidently new arrivals every minute. Now and then a rush could be heard through the brush like the tramping of a drove of ponies. All the attacks had been from one quarter , but it was evident that they v ere being surrounded. The dog made a rush for the fence behind , and Mas yelled : "Here they are on our backs ! " Sure enough , half a dozen were making a charge not ten yards away. Three were shot and the rest retreated. "Men , this is serious. If they get in side , we're goners. Our only chance will be to fire the hay and take to these two big pines outside , if we can. I tell you , if we get out of this on our legs , we'll have something to be thankful for. " It was new moon. The snow had stopped falling and it was getting very cold. The men ran around the inclos- ure to relieve their numbed limbs. The pack was opened and a piece of raw salt pork , cut into slices , was eatea with hard tack. " "My tongue Is fast in my mouth , T'm so dry , " said Max. _ "Well , TTe must grin and bear it. iSatin' snow makes it worse. Hello ! here's a new pack comin' , " Again a surge of gray backs came snapping and yelling up the road , but while a dozen threw themselves on the carcasses , a dozen came for the fence on a dead lope , smelling the provisions , no doubt. For half an hour it was load and fire. Four were shot not over ten feet away. Their red eyes and big teeth were plainly seen. Finally , un der the fire , the pack melted away. "Now , if no more new ones come , we are safe for awhile , There must have been fifty of the last ones see how they are piled up in the road. We are about eight miles from the Sinnemaho ning , and the cold will make it better sledding. Let's put out , " said Rodgers. "It's taking chances , hut we can't stay here all night without fire. Let's hang these four carcasses up in the pine , and that will keep 'em awhile after they finish the others. " A big pine stood two feet from the fence. Mellon got over and dragged the dead wolves in. They were very thin , but as large as big bear hounds. Skewering the hind legs together they were secured to the pine limbs ten feet up , and now the fence was let quietly down on the further side and they stole away. They were not a mile off when the howling was heard. The pack was fighting over the dead ones. All hands took hold of the sled and kept on a dead run. The snow had frozen on top and made fair traveling. "Do your best , men. I believe they are after us. " Coming down the wind was a sound that made them shiver. "Thank God ! Thar's the blasted pine. We're only a short mile away. Let out yer best licks. " It was getting dark , but Mellon knew the road , and it was a great relief when they struck the clearing and halted at the door of the low cabin. The mo ment Mellon pulled the latch string the dog rushed in and evidently was fight ing something inside , making a tre mendous row. "What in thunder's that , a panther ? " Just then a spit and squawl were heard. All hands sang out : "A cat ! " "Give me your gun , Max , and hold the door open. " Away in the far end of the cabin , un der the eaves shone a pair of eyes. Mellon fired ; a loud snarl , and the dog was tearing something on the floor. When a light was struck they found a big wildcat that had come down the chimney , attracted by some food that had been left behind. In a short time bear steaks and salt pork were frying over the fire , and all had a hearty meal. "Do you know that the man who built this cabin was killed by wolves about 1850 ? Two years after the re mains of himself and dog were found in the 'Slashes , ' eight miles up the creek , and a dozen wolf skulls around him. Well , we've just escaped the same to-day , and oughten to miss say- in' our prayers to-night. " The wolves howled around the cabin all night , but were gone in the morn ing , and with the assistance of a big jug of cider , roast turkey , bear meat , with maple sugar sauce , Christmas day , 1867 , was joyfully spent in the wilds of Elk county.

He writes of his failing health and re-re covery in his characteristic way aa fol lows : "For several years I was troubled with indigestion so severe as to make it Impossible to take rnort * than two meals a day without Intense suffering. I grew worse gradtaily until , July , 1S9" . . 1 wan suddenly attacked with lncreuwed pain and soreness over tbe pit of my stomach ach and sharp pains in my right side , which rapidly increased until I could scarcely get my breath. A physician was called for immediate re' .ief and hy podermic injections of morphine were resorted to for relief. I was able to bo out in about a week , but had a second attack the following August , moro in tense than before. 1 was reduced fivtm 1SG to 134 lbs. in nine days and left wholly unable to take any nourishment. I lived on lime water and a very little milk for several days after. For one year I carried morphine pellets in my pockets ready for an emergency. All this time my stomach w " sre a"d y > ry se--lve. I discovered that what I would agree with my stomach this I week would probably not next week , and that I was getting njarcr and near er to a final collapse. J consulted three of the best physicians in the itate and i two agreed fully as to my ailment , but failed to give me relief. Having utterly failed to obtain relief , I fir-ally made arI I pingements to go to Chicago to be treated when my little boy chanced to get a sample package of Dr. Kay's Ren ovator , which he brought to me. I was induced to try it. not having the least faith in its virtues. I thought this sam- | pie relieved me , and 1 purchased a 25- cent box. Before it was all used I bad so improved that I was taking .three meals a day , which I had not don for years. I then used one package of the large Dr. Kay's Renovator and one more of the small size. It is eight months since I commenced using Dr. Kay's Renovator and I now have no symptoms whatever of my old trouble. I have recommended It to many of my friends for stomach trouble and I think all have reported relief. " George W. Hervey , Omaha. Neb. , Feb. 17. lf > i)7.
