KILLING A CINNAMON BEAR IN A CAVE.
The Trinity (Cal.) Journal of Febru-
airy 10Th relates the story of the killing
of a cinnamon bear under peculiar cir
cumstances. 1t says
About two miles above Sturdiyant's
place, on Trinity river, and about half
mile back from the river, there is bluff
rock abont 100 feet high--almost per-
pendicular in ascent and fronting upon
small fiat known as Hay-press fiat.
There are q number of openings in the
rock leading to caverns within. One
day last week John, Day, while hunting,
tracked a large bear into one of those
caves, but, not being provided with q
torch, did not venture in. A day or two
after, John Day and bis uncle, James L.
Day, having provided themselves with
torches, undertook the perilous task of
boarding bruin in his den. The opening
through which the adventurous hunters
made their entrance was about two and
half or three feet high, and eighteen
or twenty inches wide. After consider
able hunting through several different
caves and passages, their Investigations
disclosed the fact that there was Gre
vice in the side of the cavern in which
their object had slowed himself SO as to
be almost concealed But his where.
abouts was ascertained, and our hunters
had taken too many chances already to
finch, and advanced Immediately upon
the enemy. j. L. Day held his rife
ready cooked, while John Day flashed
his torch full in the eyes of the astonish-
ed animal. Realizing that all avenues
of escape were shut off, bruin, with ter
rife growls, undertook the offensive
Rushing toward the foe, with the In
stinct of his kind, he reared on his hind
legs within two feet of the hunters. At
that moment j. L. Day called to his
nephew to raise his torch so he could see
the sights of bis gun. This was done,
and the light fiaring full on bruins orbs
compelled him to turn his head to one
side. This was the critical moment, and
the. senior Day improved it to discharge,
with unerring aim, the contents of his
rifle just at the butt of bruins ear, and
disjointed his neck. The bear pitched
forward in the agonies of death. The
hunters were within reach and unable to
escape. So close were they that in his
dying throes they were caught by his
claws and could not help themselves.
Happily they were not injured. The
next thing that presented itself to the
Days was how to get him out. This
they finally accomplished, but not
throgh the way he went In. Among
the number of creyices in the rock they
found one that led into a larger cave
than the one through which they had
