Robert II. Davis tells In Gdmeldnd how two
buck Indians OF the Northwestern coast tribes
went into q bears den, and. by the light OF a
torch. killed a big grizzly bear.
A young law student got sight OF the bear
one day while he was still hunting. While try
ing TO approach II the hunter alarmed the bear,
refuge In n hole there. The student elm bed up
100 yards ON the face OF the cliff and started
rocks down about the hole. thinking to drive
the bear out but the bear would not start.
Then he went to n nearby Indian camp and got
they would go with the man after the bear il
he would let them take the Rifle. The student

The Hose Method or Hunting IL for Rnb'
bits Only.

II Sun told recently OF q man who hunted
rabbits with u hose and got them. The Sports
mems ReuteD tells how other men tried the
same scheme In a Chicago suburb, ana WHY Que
Of them wishes he hadn't. The way to hunt
rabbits with n hose lie to push the hose down into
the rabbit hole, and have men guard all tho
exits while somebody yells into the hose.
A man named Cutler doubted the efficiency OF
tho method. according to the Review, but q man
named Won Lengerke said It would work, and
he would prove It. A party Of hunters set forth
after the rabbits and zane to a rabbit hole.
Cutler guarded an entrance while Abe Klein
mar did the yelling. The rabbit went out of the
hole over Cutters head and away out Of sight.
Cutler admitted that he had been In the wrong,
but he wanted to try to catch a rabbit, dnd.
pointing to q hole, said II looked likely.
As before. Kleinman yelled into the hose.
Cutler got close to the hole 80 that he would
be sure of the rabbit this time. He saw q beast
coming. and with both arms clasped IL tightly
when II struck his breast. The onlookers heard
a muffied yell. such as n halt. choked man
might utter. and saw Cutler roll over back
ward. throwing tho beast from him.. Instead Of
being a rabbit, tho beast was u scared skunk.

such remnants may DO better and cheaper thar

Harness makers and saddlers who buy whole
