MOOSE AND WAPITI.
STALKERS LEAVING FOR SOUNDS. (fbsss assooa.ho* teleg&am.) INVERjCARGILL, March 7. The ketch Rakiura is timed to sail from Bluff to-morrow morning for the Sounds, carrying the stalkers who drew moose and wapiti blocks from the Southland Acclimatisation Society. The moose stalkers are Mr and Mrs C. J. Herlick, of Masterton, and Mr C. Kirkley, of Hastings. They will be accompanied by guides, among whom is Mr Harold Hodgkinson, an expert stalker. The party -will go ashore at Dusky Sound, and they hope to return with good specimens of moose heads. As moose "call" before wapiti, they will be tackled first. Afterwards the party will proceed to George Sound and Carswell Sound, which is known as the wapiti country.
