We all have read many articles descriptive of Moose- hunting in Maine and Canada, but here is a novelty. Mr. Hibbs has given us a paper on Moose-hunting in the Rocky Mountains, embellished with valuable notes as to the habits of the great ruminant, under its rugged environment, and with such thrilling episodes and adventures in hunting it as could only have been experienced in that strange and picturesque land. "Sillalicum" has given us a study of the Cougar, and Nattrass one of the Lynx, never before equaled by any writers, and which could not have been produced by other than the enthusiastic hunters and naturalists that they are. Mr. Lett's paper on the Caribou throws much new light on the habits and character of that strange denizen of the great northern wilderness. He has lived half a life-time in its woodland home, and has had exceptional opportuni- ties for studying it in its wild state.
