SAVES SELF i
Marksmanship of Hunter
Wins Oyer Grizzly Bear
A well directed shot from a 30-40 1
Winchester ritle probably saved the
life of G. F. Hammersley, of Vancouver, :
last week. The shot killed a monster
grizzly bear that was hot on Mr. Ham
mersley's trail and which had gotten
within 25 paces of him when .detected
Mr. ;Hammersley was hunting in
the vicinity of Caribou for several days.
He had killed a good sized grizzly bear
the day before his adventure with a
real monarch of the forrest, and was
on his way to Caribou. Something, he
kuows not what, caused him to look
behind him. Less than 75 feet
away, looking him squarely in the eye,
was a member of the bruin family of
proportions seldom equalled by these
kings of all out doors. The bear had
stopped when he realized that his
quarry had detected his pursuit, but he
showed no indications of retreat. Mr.
Bammersley did not waitjlong. Taking
careful aim with his Winchester he
placed a ball in the bear's nose, mid
way between his nostrils and brow.
The ball was turned from the roof of
the mouth down the throat. This bul
let was followed by others equally well
placed. After a terrible struggle with
his wounds, during which he fell 100
yards or more down the mountain side,
old bruin gave up the ghost.
An examination of the tracks In the
snow showed that the bear had followed
Mr. Hammersley for a half mile.
Mr. Hammersley arrived from Cari
bou last night and has engaged trans
portation for himself and brace of bear
furs for Vancouver.
ANOTHER BOOST
FOR KETCHIKAN
Many of the Alaska papers favor
holding an Alaskan convention at Ket
chikan instead of at Seattle. The
suggestion as to the place of holding
the convention is a good one. Ketchi
kan is easily reached from nearly a!l
parts of Alaska and has now grown to
be quite a ci'.y and hes ample accommo
dations for the number of people that
would attend such a meeting. ? Juneau
