The Bear Fighter Of San EmsdIo.

From the Bakersfield Southern Californian
Juan, tho famous bear fighter OF San
Emedio, rode his pony into town tho
other day. lilo looks like q half
moon when on his horse without saddle
or bride. Tho blanket which he puts
on when he sleeps at night Is nll there
Is between him and his faithful pony.
His last fight was with o grizzly In the
San Emedio Canyon. Ho left his camp
early in the morning, being awakened
by the crashing Of tho brush and q Pc
culiar sensation about his feet, which
had boon exposed as usual 10 the gentlo
frosts Of the mountains. The tracks OF
the bear showed that ho had been close
to him, and had probably gone of Of.
Tended with tho smell Of his toes. Juan
took his gun, buckled ON his belt and
knife and followed tho tracks. He had
not Rono far before. OH tho trail just
ahead Of him, the gentleman In grizzly
grey presented himself in n most respect
full attituds-on his hind fect. In IN
instant Juan gave him o rife ball ns
near his heart a. no could guess, which
attracted the grizzly to him before it
was fairly out Of the gun. Juan thought
"a knock him down with the butt, but
tho bear caught II In his teeth and paw.
which made a wreck Of the whole works.
While the bear Was making prints with
his teeth on tho stock, Juan went for
his bowels with his knife, tho result
OF which was much blood on both sides.
The bear came on top, and setting his
teeth close to the Indians belt. curled
him up into the shape he now retains.
Tho last twist OF tho knife. however,
began TO tell. Tho bear rolled over
alongside tho Indian, and In his death
struggles raked his paw across tho fell
lows front, from his forehead to his
knees, which took tho skin over his
eyes, and camo near carrying away his
ribs. Juan found, after the blood had
stopped flowing. that no could crawl.
and he got into camp, where lay till
the next day, when he was picked up by
a yaquero, thrown across the horse like
a dead deer, and taken 10 tho house ut
the mouth Of tho canyon. II was three
months before he appeared again, and
he now has his old rifle repaired. but

face, and his jaws don't match exactly

that he carries nothing but his scars

encounter. Ho was given some bread,
