Last Ootobor a cold spell in Mon tana killed ji sheep herder in the Great Falls district ; two feet of snow covered the rinigo in places and the thermometer indicated 40 degrees be low xero. The herder was frozen to death on the prairies while caring for his sheep and it was three days before his fate was known to his employers Two shepherd dogs were with him when he died , and one of these stayed with the body while the other at tended to the sheep , just as though the herder had been with him. The dog drove them out on the range in the morning and back again at night , guarding them from wolves and pre venting them from straying off. Neither dog had anything to eat dur ing the three days' vigil , so far as could be ascertained , but the 2500 sheep thrived as well , apparently , as though directed by human agency. The sin gular fact about the matter is that these faithful animals would have starved to death rather than harm one of the sheep left in their charge.
