Ever Seen in This
Section.

One OF the largest bears evel
brought down In this section of the
country and the first silver tip beai
that has been seen on the Grand Mess
in number of years, was killed OIL
Thursday of last week by Georg.
Wood, prominent young ranchmar
OF Mesa. in the Plateau valley, who
has many friends in Grand juno
tion.
On last Thursday Mr.. Wood was
out hunting for deer on the north
slope of Grand Mesa when he ran up
on a suspicious looking hole or cave
and on investigation found that he
had intruded upon the lair of a nigh.
ty Bruin. He had apparently arrang-
ed his quarters for a comfortable
winter. The big fellow had dug a
large open cave, facing the north, in
very thick aspen. In order to see
what was in the hole Mr.. Wood states
that he had to step directly in front
of 1t and there. not six feet away lay
Nlit munster ID uAiis w
cause his slumber had been disturb
ed the bear began to growl and rails
ed but well directed shot from a
1910 Winchester quickly and COM
pletely ended his career.
Mr.. Wood succeeded in getting the
bear to his home. He found that it
was magnificent specimen of the
silver tip variety. BY actual meas
urements it was found that the bear
was feet 10 inches from foot to
foot across the shoulders and S feet
from nose to tail. The fur is about
five inches thick, and is black tipped
with gray. He was not weighed but
there is no question but what he was
one of the heaviest bears killed in
western Colorado in several years
Mr.. Woods states that from two large
pieces of fat he rendered is gallons
and quarts of oil.
The fur was of the very finest quail
ity and finer pelt is rarely seen.
Mr.. Wood is justly proud of his big
catch. Silver tip bears are rare these
days and it is said that 1t has been
years since monster of this variety
has been killed on the Mesa.
Mrs. C. C. O'Neil. of this city. who
returned home this week from n visit
TO the Plateau valley was at the Wood
ranch and saw the bear. and states
that is is the largest she ever saw.
She brought home with her some OF
