WHAT BECAME OF THE WOLF?

Here is the story it is a signed
article read it.
A trio of gentlemen Emmett
Goodwin Walter Kilgore and Mart
Louthan were making quite a little
stir in town last Monday evening
and on investigating it was found
that they were going on a wolf
hunt.
This is the story an Express re-
porter got from one cf the party:
It seems that these gentlemen
bad challenged Reese Barton Tom
Smith and Mr. Myers of Tuttle to
run with their dogs They all
met at Barton's early Monday even
ing the Chickasha party getting In
rather late and as Goodwin was
there with his "big w indies" there
there was little sleep during the
night- He caught them like Aber
nathy and only wanted three min
utes to dc it in. Barton set his a-
larm clock and got us all up at
three o'clock the next morning.and
by the way that clock must have
been a dandy for it run for thirty
minutes after Louthan threw it in
the creek. Ve had breakfrst by 4
o'clock and jumped a wolf by sun
up but owing to the fact that Bar-
ton's ring-necked rabbit dog ran a
jack between tb pack and the wolf
the dogs botherd and lost. How-
ever we struck another wolf in a-
bout thirty minutes and the big
race was on. Barton riding like a
Comanche close up in front on old
Bullet with Tom Smith a good se-
cond and the balance well they
were among the "also rans".
The dogs were weir packed and
running
in sight as
running in a circle. It was hard to
determine whose do was doing the
best work;Barton claiming that bis
Dude was leading the pack and
Tom Sm':h swearing that Barton
could not tell one "dorg" from an-
other and that it was his Dandy
that was leading and Myers swear
ing his blue dog was doing the
work. Of course Louthan Kilgore
and Goodwin being verey nodest
made no claims. We ran for two
hours in the hard rain and until
wolf and dogs ran east toward the
Rock Island and we all lost out
never knowing whether the dogs
ct'ight or not and went to camp
wet cold and hungry but full of
enthusiasm and argument mostly
arguuient.
After cofiscating all of Barton's
dry clothes.opening a bottle of Red
Raven Splits and eating a good
dinner we all felt fine and by this
time the dogs had all gotten in
We decided to go east to Bud
Smith's pasture and try it f gain

were any more wolves inthatcoun.
try as Goodwin claimed and here
is where the big chase came off. It
would be hard to decribe it in de-
tail but the minute we got there
some of the young dogs struck

having very little faith in them
but when we put them in they im-
mediately opened and the big chase
was on the dogs getting away well
packed; and such a race. As usual
they ran in a circle making a round
of about ten miles and coming by
us three timesand there was where
the dog problem was solved. Some
of the dogs on account of the hard
