Mr. Swayne derrird the popular lm" pression that buffalo hunting on the island In a tame form of sportsman' ship. He declares the Island bison are wild and vicious and will attack and Cora to death any horse or man that come In close proximity. If any one thinks," said Mr. Bwayno. "that it's simply a rasa of going out and taking a 'pot' shot at a tarns animal, ani-mal, ha la grossly mistaken. A bnffa-will bnffa-will catch a horse In a long chase. Tn ride among them la suicide. They will attack on sight, and th only way they can be killed is for the hunter to bar-rlcude bar-rlcude himself In the rocks and await his chance to shoot. HI'S MOST FEROCIOUS. "There I a popular Impression that w Just ride alongside of them on a horse and shoot. We will furnish a horse, gun. food and pay all expenses, including the buffalo, If any one would Ilk to try It that way. A wild bison. Is one of tbe moat ferocious beasts In existence. He must be shot aa any ether big wild game 1 shot with precaution pre-caution and careful preparation to meet emergencies." HOW IT'S DONE. Antelope Island la fourteen miles lonr and seven mllea wide. The bison usually gather at the north end of tha -island, necessitating a ride on horseback horse-back of ten or twelve mllea to reach them. The horses are then placed In a rock corral or ridden lnta the higher retreats of the hills. Hunters get lo position to bag their quarry by maneuvering maneu-vering on foot among the rocks. Although tha highest powered big game rlflea ars used. Bwayne declares It Is seldom that a bison can be brought down with one shot. . Unless struck, in a fatal spot, tha buffalo will attack any number of men or horaes when wounded. It la neceeaary In cases of this kind, he says, to lie In waiting In the rocks and shoot until the beast Is dead, NOTHING CAN BE DONE. Kx pressing the deepest regret that hla organisation Is unable to take any action that might save the buffalo of Antelope Island, Dr. W. O. (Stillman. president of the American Humane society, so-ciety, wired to President C. B. Hswiey of the Halt lake Commercial club to day, saying It la too late to perfect j negotiations. lnder the terms st forth by th Buffalo ls'and livestock company," Mr. Htlllman said, "it would take at least six months to make the proper financial finan-cial arrangements. If it could be dons at all." Dr. Rtlllman said that practically every means had been exhausted to reach an agreement which would prevent pre-vent the slaughter of tbe bison.
