P. 0. BEAULIEU
BACK FROM BIG
HUNT, INTERIOR
BAGS SHEEP AND CARIBOU NEAR
DRY CREEK, BACK HEALY
RIVER DISTRICT.
MEL HORNER ACTED AS GUIDE
Beaulieu To Return Next Season—
Will Bring Party Back
With Him.
P. O. Beaulieu, Winner, S. D., hard
ware merchant, who has been in this
district of the Territory for the last
two months on a big game hunt, to
gether with Mrs. Beaulieu and guide,
Mel Horner, returned to Seward Sat
urday from the Interior. Mr. and
Mrs. Beaulieu embarked for Seattle
on the steamer Yukon which mark
ed the conclusion of a very pleas
ant time spent in Alaska. Mrs. Beau
lieu did not accompany her husband
on his two hunts, but remained at
Anchorage during the entire time.
The big game hunter and guide
departed from Seward for the Healv
River country three weeks ago but
before they came to the end of their
rail journey the land slide in the In
terior blocked the railroad, forcing
them to return to Anchorage where
they remained for a week, then re
turning to the Interior region. About
two weeks’ actual huntiing took
place. The main camp was estab
lished on Dry Creek, back of Healy,
going up the left-hand side, towards
the McKinley Park region.
Mr. Beaulieu brought down one
sheep and three caribou. The sheep
head is said to be about the average
specimen, it having a spread of bet
ter than 28 inches, with the base a
little over 14 inches and a curve of
4014 inches. The caribou were es
pecially uniform heads, Mr. Beau
lieu being delighted with them. Fair
weather was encountered the most
of the time in the hills, with the
exception of the prevailing strong
winds, which seems to blow every
day and night. Previous to going in
to the Interior to hunt, Mr. Beaulieu,
with guides, Horner and Kaiser, se
cured four good specimens in the
Tustamena lake district, consisting
fo one sheep, one moose and two
bear.
The nationally known big game
hunter was so well pleased with his
Alaska hunt, that., he stated he ah
ready had made plans to return
again next year at which time he
hoped to bring North a party of three
or four.
During his brief visit, between
the arrival of the train and the de
parture of the steamer, Mr. Beaulieu
heard of the wild game, sheep, bear
and moose, which oftimes are seen
along the Seward-Kenai highway. He
emphatically stated that the people
of Seward should see that the ani
mals prowling about the highway,
and adjacent district, were not mo
lested for such an unusual occur
rence is an asset of incomparible
worth, with respect especially to the
tourist travel. If tourists visiting
Seward knew that they might ob
tain a glimpse of real Alaskan game
life, running about wild, simply by
motoring out of town a short dis
tance, in a few years the increase of
business to the community would be
enormous.

ticles. She looks forward to the
