-—
One of the most noted and success
ful hunters of the Kenai Peninsula,
who has had many hair-raising es
capes while*after big game, has been
j induced to tell one of his thrilling
| episodes, and gives The Gateway the
following narrative in his own irords:
“It happened about the middle of
August, 1903. I was camping in an
old Indian bribary, situated at the
mouth of Russian river which em
ties into Kenai river about mid-way
between the two lakes.
“Having accomplished nothing dur
ing the early part of the day, I con
cluded, in the way of deversity, to
take a stroll up Russian river to the
falls, which is an ideal feeding place
for bear, as salmon is as much in evi
dence in the surrounding atmosphere
as in the river itself. Not being ac
quainted with the trail leading dir
ectly to the falls, I followed the river,
intending to take the trail from the
falls back to camp.
1 plodded along about two hours
and a half through underbrush, along
bluffs and over gullies, but my efforts
were not to be unwarded, for immedi
ately upon arriving at the falls I saw
a large,brown bear going to the river
for a second helping of fish.
“Mv position could not have been
better, as I was on a rather steep
hill-side, about sixty feet above the
grassy basin in which the madam and
her charge were dining; and by the
time I had reached a good position,
gotten my feet properly planted, and
my artillery into position, my intend
ed victim had returned to the operat
ing table, so I unhooked one of my
messengers of death. But instead of
my bear going up in a puff of smoke
and fur, or even lying down and
peacefully yielding up the ghost, she
had very urgent business up the river,
and evidently did not expect to be
home for dinner as she had taken her
lunch with her.
“I fired several parting shots at her
■but they only served as ventilators
to the rent my bear had cut in the
atmosphere in her mad flight.
“I soon dispatched the cub, but not
before he had made several cries to
the mother which in her hurry and
agitation had quite forgotten her '
family obligations, which I might add
is very strong in the female bear, but
I knew when she’d succeeded in col
lecting her senses she would be back
like a house afire with vengeance vile
and dire intent, any your humble ser
vant would have something “didding” i
immediately.
“I held my position for some time,
