a TERRIBLE FIGHT.
A LoEgeT's Rough Experience With !
Savage Bear

Two men Lamed john Smith and
Harry Norberg, loggers employed
near Shelton are in the city. Smith
10 bandaged up around the head, and
his left arm is IN sling. He walks
with limp and looks generally as If
he was badly used up.
The cause OF these wounds Is a
terrible conflict with bear IN which
Snith came out victor, but not with
out q terrible experience
Last Saturday afternoon Smith
was engaged at slashing some under
brush for the continuation of skid
road. he had had dinner but short
time, and had not returned to the
scene Of his labors more than a few
minutes when he found himself face
to face with an unusually large she
bear. His meeting with this huge
creature was peculiar. He had gone
ahead OF his work to examine the
thickness of the underbrush, and IN
order 10 see better had climbed upon
Q big log. The log was situated on
the brink of the bed of dry creek.
As Smith was preparing to Jump OH
the log he missed his footing, slipped
and fell into the creek and almost
directly upon bruin, who was hidden
under . fallen tree and by lot of
brush. At the time of his fall Smith
had his axe in his hand, but lost his
grip on it.
The bear jumped up and before the
unwilling intruder had time to gather
ans scattered Wits or defend himself,
hs received q terrible blow on the
ohsst from the bears paw. The blow
kaoeked Smith heels over head, but
did not stun him. He picked him,
self mp as rapidly as possible and
locked around for something to de.
'end himself with. His axe was al,
1aost At his feet, and he grabbed it
The fight that followed between tht
sturdy logger and his four footed op
2onsnt was terrible. Smith states
that he could not WELD his axe will
Tapidity enough to keep the bear a
safe distance, although he buried i
in the bears ribs four times. Th'
battle continued for about fifteeI
inmates and both Smith and the bea
were greatly exhausted, the forme
from lack OF breath, the latter from
the loss of blood. A we'll directed
blow at tho bears head finally ended
Ale conflict. The extent of Smith
wounds are: his left shoulder and hiI
badly torn by the bears claws, tn
left aide of his face and neck is ais
terribly scratch ed. His workin!
clothes are in shreds.
