Caught i'm n Eear Trap!

Mr. Martin McDonna, the town
Marshal, went out last Monday on a
camp hunt, accompanied by little
Tommy Brown. Having pitched
their tent, west Of Carson's Lake,
Mr.. McDonna concla led to recon.
noitre the surrounding canebrakcs
for bear sign, and when about mile
from camp found plenty OF sign.
Proceeding cautiously and expecting
every moment to come in sigh. Of
the game which he knew must be
near hand, he stepped upon the
trunk of small tree which lay arcoss
the path travelled by the bears, and
from this vantage ground took a
long and careful view of the sur
roundings. After having satisfied
himself that no game was in shooting
distance, he stepped down, and right t
into the jaws of a heavy bear trap.
The shock and surprise was COM
plete. Here was predicament!
Fast in a Bear Trap, with not a liv-
ing soul nearer than two miles The
trap in which his leg was fast, was
one Of the largest OF it's kind, and
weighs eighteen pounds, requiring
the aid Of two men with levers to
set the springs. The protection af
forded ~ the bottom of his panta-
looms which were on the inside Of
bis boots, no doubt saved the bones
being broken. Ascer,ainihg this
tact, be went deliberately to work
TO extricate himself from his unpleas.
aut situation. With his gun barrel
and the pole, which served as a
drag, and fastened with log chain,
be managed after whiting the pole
and prying the jaws of :he trap
apart sufficiently to pull his foot out
Of his boot which he left in the trap.
He was in the trap over an hour and
q half, and though the evening was
cool, De says that when he finally
liberated himself there wasn't dry
stitch of clothes about him. No
bones were broken, but the inden-
lures made by the teeth with which
the jaws of the trap are armed, sank
deep into the flesh and made ugly
wounds, from which he is likely to
suffer for some time.
