dying at their feet A rifle ball ended the
existence he had so ticrcely battled to
maintain. Hazen's clothes were about all
torn from him. and he received several
ugly flesh wounds on various parts Of his
body, These were dressed and after a
Shout rest the hunters concluded 10 finish
the other two bears that vet remained in
the cavern. These they knew were cubs,
and thew did not anticipate any great diff

further in the cave, and soon dense smoke

few minutes elapsed before 4 bear was
heard breaking Though the laurels In a
different place from that at which the first
two had gone out. Presently it broke
through. Il WAS about half groWn. Cast
ing a hasty glance around at the hunters,
it started to run off in the opposite direc-

rose on its launches at This and turned a
full front to the hunters. growing and

Shater and HaZen were positive that
there was another bear in the lair, but all
attempts at smOking him ont failed. \ Neither

cave. as they had quite enough of wrest

| for place where they could see into the
| den. with the object OF shooting the re
naming bear. They finally succeeded in
| cutting a hole through the laurels at a |
| p int from where the interior of the cav |
en could be seen. Building a large fire !
TO light it up within, they discovered the |
bear crOuched back il the tarthe>t corner |
| against a rock. Two shots fired into il
despatched It. and the hunters dragged it |
out In triumph Being somewhat eN-
! hauSted with their days work, the men |
concluded net to start IN pursuit of their
fifth hear-thc one they had wounded |
earlier in the day. Returning to this
place, they procured assistance and the
four lead bears were brought in.
This was the most successful and darine /
bear hunt ever known in the Pike county
region. md has created quite 4 sensation.
