HE THREW THE BARON TO THE GROUND
AND JUMPED ON HIM.

'but while vodka made the baron furi-
bic the more they drank-ail but one
bear. This was a young brown bear
which my master obtained in the eau
casus. A single half quart Of vodka
was liable to throw this otherwise doc
lie brute. into a towering rage. For
that reason the baron was often warn
ed by friends not to wrestle with the
Caucasus bear when the latter was in
his cups, but he wouldn't listen.
"On the fatal day the baron and the
bears had a good time together, polish
ing off six quarts of vodka between
them. The Caucasus bear was so
drunk he could hardly walk, and my
master said he was just in a condition
to be licked. Consequently he began
teasing and prodding him, whereupon
the bear finally rose on his hind legs
as if to say, Come on and give bat
tie The baron at once threw off his
coat and vest and ordered me under
no circumstances to interfere, as he
meant to prove his superiority to
bruin. Then they went for each other,
going successfully through the differ
ent preliminaries of a regular wrestling
match.
sit was evident to me from the start
that the bear was inclined to be I'M
fair. While going through the holds
and grips taught him he tried to
scratch my master and even bite him,
and when finally they clinched l saw
him bury his claws deep into my mas
ter's back.
"'Hand me the iron billyv cried the
baron, and, avoiding the bears eye, l
did so, for l feared to be attacked by
him. Ny master Immediately began
to pound the bear over the head and
shoulders, causing the blood to flow
and at the same time commanded him
to follow the rules. But bruin had evil
IDENTIFY too much vodka Oh board to be
Obedient.
Cali Of a sudden he threw the baron
to the ground and then jumped on him
with his four paws, tearing his breast
and limbs and biting his face l ran
in terror to call help and get my shot
gun. When we came back the bear
had torn my masters body into
dozen pieces and had stretched him
self out on the remains. He was fast
asleep, and we had no difficulty put
ting on his muzzle and claiming his
legs. The other bears lay in various
corners of the room snoring. They
had slept throughout the duel beside
their empty vodka bottles, indifferent
to the terrible scene enacted so near
them.'
