A half breed named Disraeli (his
name should have entitled him to
more respect from bruin) was brought
into the post hospital a few days ago
from Armel's creek in a badly dlshg'
ured condition. As e as we can
ascertain the facts. it seems that
three half-breeds had been chasing a
bear for several days-the increased
bounty offered by cattle men prob
ably stimulating them to greater en-
deavor-when Disraeh, being in ad-
vance of his comrades came suddenly
upon bruin in the brush, and before
the author OF Lothair could raise bis
gun in defense his adversary caught
him around the waist with one paw
and dealt him a blow with the other
that would have made the two brutes
who fought at Butte recently turn
pale with envy could they have seen
the lacerated face OF this poor hall
breed. The bears stroke, besides
mutilatirg tie whole side of his VIC
TINS face, took out a piece of his
jaw bone three inches long, u AZ
regularly as it could be done with a
knife. (The piece of jaw bone with
three teeth attached, was brought
into the post q couple of days after
by his sister.) HIS comrades soor
came up to his rescue, fired a shot al
tn. bear, and it fled into the noun
tains. DisraeIi is rapidly recovering
from his wounds under the treatmen'
of DR.. Wyatt, post surgeon.-Nineral
Aryus.
