Visited by a Grizzly Bear.

An old resilient of Montana, while
camping out, was awakened by
growl and the pressure of a heavy
foot, that almost made him groan.--
He grasped bis rifle, and was about
crawling out of bed, when the pres
sure was removed. Then came the
ripping of sacks, the stampede OF
horses, and a general destruction
among the prov sions. After making
away with sugar and breakfast bacon,
the thing settled down upon the bed,
the weight of the paws almost break
ing the mans legs. After cogitating
upon the best way Of getting rid of
his visitor, the distant cry of the
mule attracted the animals attention,
and he betook himself cff. The
hunter slowly raised the cover from
his head and poered around. There,
not thirty yards away, stood the
brute-a big, white-headed grizzly
with his left fore foot slightly raised,
his ear crooked over toward the
other end of the valley, in silent
meditation. Such q fair shot im-
possible to miss him-not considering
that the old moons faint light nigh.
deceive. He determined to take shot
at him and take the chances. Grad.
ually raising his rifle to aim the ques-
ton arose where to shoot-through
the heart, lungs, or head. The ex-
treme tension of his nerves began to
lax; he trembled slightly from in =
decision. He must shoot quick oil
not at all. lie took a steady pull on
the side of his head put two more
shots at random into his body. Such
an unearthly yell he never heard be-
fore. The huge beast rolred, stun
bled, and rolled around on the greer
sward, until it finally go. into th'
creek in the dark out of sight, wher'
it splashed, houudered, and moaned
incoming ard crying like a hug
giant. The first shot had scalped
him, without doing him serious ia
Ijury; ole of the other shots cut hi
Ijngular vein, ana another went through
his body and he bled to death. HI
was about seven feet long and fou
feet high.
