A IIOLIi)AY ADVENTURE IN THE ROCKIES. On a bright Jnne morning Mew years ago, three persons 'night he seen %vend- ing their way among that portion of the Rocky Mountains which fomes the boundary line between British Colum- bia and Alberta. The dress of the ol(le • person clearly told tate occupation (dill: followed—that of a hunter and trapper. Buckskin bt•eeche, enclosed his legs, and he wore a coat of the sauce mater- ial, ateri1Ll, while his head -drew consisted of 0 beaver -skin cap. A powder -flask and a long hunting knife hung at his side; a rifle resting on his shonlder,c•onlpleted his outfit. His face had become so tanned with exposure to all sorts of weather, that his skin was as (lark as that of the Indians among whom he lived, and by whorl he was held in high estimation. His two companions, (of whom the writer was one) had come from Ontario for the purpose of spending their holi- days iu the mountains. We had 'net the old trapper while we were out hunting and we agreed to camp to- gether. On the day of which T .write, we had started out after some gain' to replen- ish our larder. We sighted an antelope, but after following it, for about an hour we lost track of it. We wandered about for an hour or so, but failing to fall in with any gloms. Wedecided to return to our hut. While returning home the old trapper sighted a Rocky Mountain sheep feeding on ;in eminence about a quarter of 11 mile away. We instantly started towards it, going, however, as quietly as possible, for those an111111,15 aro very timid and are frightened at, r the slightest noise. We had got within about fifty yards of it, when something startled it., and it wont bounding clown the side of the hill. My companion followed as quickly 1Ls possible, while the old trapper and I followed at It slower gait. We gained the top of the hill, noon which a, few seconds before the Rock}} Meentain sheep had been quietly feed- ing, ,just in time to see the animal bound over 11 steep precipice. Some largo stones, which it dislodged resit fell, clam' thundering down after it and we were horrified to see our companion go over too. We hastened to the spot, where pe had last seen him and In )ked over the clif exsect- ing to see his mangled body on the rooks beneath. Imagine our sur- mise to SOP hien suspended in mid-air from a prir,jecting ledge of Stone 9nll1P twenty feet below us. When the mountain sheep leapt over the preci- p'e. it had alighted on this ledge with its head leaning over the precipice and the rocks falling on to) of it, fastened it there firmly. As has been stated, before my friend went- over last, in the fall his coat was caught on the horns of the sheep and there he was held strug- gling and calling for help. laving secured 'a rope we lowered it to hint and hatih'd 11hn np. 1 1808 then lower- ed and after 1 had fastened the end of a rope around the sheep, I was drawn up. We next proceeded to draw up the sheep, and one friend, the trapper, having cut off the choice pieces with the quickness and skill of an adept, we hid the rest ie a moo and returned to the cutup. My friend inaistde on having the head of the mountain slteep and having got it he had it stuffed. While visiting my friend in his home in Ontario, last (•hristlults, 1 noticed that altocky Mountai noheep'shead occupied a prominent position in the hall while a coat was hanging from one of the horns in much the same manner as a twat of the sante size hung from the hotels some, fifteen years ago when we were 11t:1nting in the stocky Mountains, except that 111 one case the 1111111 hung there also and in the other the ,11(171 wa8 sitting at his ease in theparloesuloking a cigar.
