While cruising some land at Kameolan Inlet, about forty miles south of Prince Rupert, he espied two black bear on the mountainside about fifty yards away. With a small pistol he fired two shots, wounding both of them. The wounds, however, were sufficient only to arouse the of the beasts and they at made for him. With only one shell left he fired at the larger bear but missed. He then grabbed a spruce limb as his only defence, the bears still advancing, His faithful dog joined him in the anger once bear from behjnd. ROY HORIE'S EXCITING EXPERIENCE WITH BEARS SINGLE HANDED, WITH “AIDS OF pO DOG, HE KILLED MOTHER BEAR AND CUB WITH A SPRUCE STICK—MOTHER 0 POUNDS. Each time the bear turned al the dog Mr. Horie inflicted telling blows on the bear’s head with an occasional blow at the smaller one. Finally he rendered the big one a stun- ning blow and then ended its ex- istence with a knife. With this one out of the way he soon des- patched the smaller one. The larger of the two, a she-bear, weighed nearly four hundred pounds and the cub about a hun- dred, Several times during the encounter, which took place in a hollow beside a large fallen tree, Mr. Horie longed for the haunts of civilization, but now that the excitement has worn away he is justly proud of his victory in the thrilling episode. Mr. Horie reports that wolves are particularly numerous on Banks Island. An Indian told him he had seen one pack of over forty. The Indian dogs are run- battle and kept worrying the big ning wild with them. 28.- of Washington, —Every of both today received and receipted for a handsomely bound and expensively gotten up book. ‘The title of the volume is ‘High Cost of Living,” and Thomas W.
