A POPULAR MISTAKE

BIGGEST BEARS IN THE WORLD.
A Hunter Sent to Alaska to Get Spec
linens for the Government

The biggest bears in the world are to
be found on Kadiak island in the Gulf Of
Alaska, south Of the great shoulder of
territory that stretches out into the Pa
cihc; and DR., Frank Baker, OF the Smith
sonian Institution, has sent Elwood Hofer.
a ~ell-know guide and hunter of the yell
loWstone park, to catch one or more of
those great monsters fir the National Zoo
logical park. The Kadiak bears are of the
Polar breed. perfectly white. with long.
heavy fur, and at full growth are twice
as large as the black bear Of the Rock
mountains. weighing from 2.4OO to 5000
pounds and standing as high as an ordi-
nary COW; and so are the biggest car
nivorous animals living. The tracks they
leave In the snow have often measured
10 inches long and 10 inches wide They
are very savage and fight desperately
when attacked. Several have been killed.
and the skins rave been brought 10 this
country, but no Kadiak bear was ever
captured alive.
DR.. Carlton n. Bean. the fish expert.
who Is in charge of the department Of fish
cries at the Paris exposition. while max
ing an exploration OF the fishing resources
of Kadiak island last year. saw a good
many of these bears, and describes them
In graphic terms. He says that while
climbing a rocky hin one day he saw a
large drove OF them near the coast run
ming about and playing like so many
lambs. There must have been 80 to 200 In
the bunch. he says, and some of them
were enormous.
Elwood Hofer takes with him 10 Ea-
diak a trap which he has used with great
success in catching Wild animals in the
Yellowstone. The trap itself weighs about
three tons. and is sent in sections to Ka-
diak, where Hofer will take 1t into the
interior, set 1t up and bait it with honey
or a pig, II the latter can be obtained.
Bears are uncommonly fond of pork. and
a pig when imprisoned I'm a trap makes
a demonstration which attracts the at
tention of the bears at a longer distance
than the odor OF the honey. The bear Is
usually a very shrewd animal, but those
on the kadiak are unsophisticated and
unfamiliar with the tricks of the white
man, so Hofer thinks they will walk into
his trap without hesitation. and when
they get in there once there is no posi-
bile way for them to get out. He expects
to catch several of the monsters, but pre-
fers the young ones, because they are
more easily acclimated in a new country
and can be more readily handled than
those that are full grown. He expects To
have difficulty in getting the animals
away from the islands. because there are
no docks or landing places, and a steamer
is compelled to anchor out some distance
from the shore. so that the bears will
have to embark In canoes. If the water
is calm he may be able to float them
over to the side Of the vessel on a raft and
hoist them to the deck with a sling.
Hofer Is a man Of ingenuity and great
resource. and the Smithsonian people are
quite sure that he can get a Kadiak bear
down here If anybody can.-Chicago Rec
