Indian Killed by a Bear.

The partially consumed remains of
Charley Aleck, an Indian hunter who
had been attacked and killed by a
bear, were discovered by a hunting
party in the vicinity of Baker lake
last Monday morning where they found
evidences of a fearful struggle appar-
emf, says the Hamilton Herald
The Indian mad no rifle and was
armed with only a knife, so it is
not believed the fight was of his
seeking, and he must, therefore, have
been attacked by the animal which
the signs show must have been a large
one. The body of the dead man had
been partially eaten and badly mutt
lated by the vicious animal.
A number of Siwasn friends of the
deceased left Tuesday to prepare the
remains for burial.-Go1dendale Senti-
