and himself; the trapper carefully loaded
his rifle; each supplied himself with blanket,
and by nine o'clock Joe was leading the
way to the edge of the forest.
The clearing about the cabin was nearly
twenty rods in diameter, and the patch of
corn lay at one side, next to the woods.
The trapper took few steps among the
tree trunks. and then stopped at a spot where
several old logs lay heaped upon the ground.
Two of the logs were close together, and be-
tween these the watchers arranged their
blankets, When they lay down, they were
completely hidden by the logs.
Although Lee was skilled in wood craft,
he was not yet entirely free from a boy IS
superstitions, and he found his present sur
roundings very weird. The most familiar
objects loomed up in the moonlight large and
strange.
After they had been there for what seemed
to him long time, he heard stealthy rust
ling among the leaves. The animal for which
they were watching must be coming, and
Lee got, his shot gun IN readiness. He look
to be drowsily nodding. Antoine, as well
as he could see, was fast asleep.
The animal was so near that Lee hardly
dared to breathe. 1t would never do to try
and wake two drowsy men,
The boy felt that the heavy charges which
the barrels of his gun contained would do
for the first yolley The weapons of the
other watchers could act as reserves.
Lee had just come to this conclusion when
he saw a shadowy form moving among the
trees, not thirty feet distant.
He took quick aim and fired. The explo
sion of the heavy charges-for Lee had press
ed both triggers -thundered through the ST.
lent woods, and was echoed back from the
surrounding hills The trapper shook the
boys shoulder.
"What you firing at, Lee?" he asked
''Why, I've shot the bear" answered tbe
excited boy "You must have been asleen ),
'fI don't sleep at time like this.'' remark.
ed joe "and l think what you shot was a
jac1-rabbit that / saw skulking through the
bushes"
Lee said nothing. He began to susnect
that he himself had been half asleep. Toe
stepped from between the logs, and walked
a few PAGES into the woods.
He returned carrying large brown hare
an animal which the hunters of that region
commonly call jack-fabbt. 1t was riddled
by the heavy charges of buckshot
The trapper laid it at Lees feet and WAS
too considerate to make any comment except
aWe'n have to wait until the wild crea-
lures get over their scare at the sound of
the reports.
All was quiet again, and the three watch
ers remained dumb and motionless for long
hour. Lee began to feel cold and cramped
s1 think TIL give it up" he whispered. to
Joe "But don't come with me- I'll slip

back to the. cabin. get warm, and turn in.
Let me go alone. It's only step :
He gained the clearing and was passing by
the little piece of corn, when he thought he
heard scratching noise at its further side.
He turned and walked in the direction OF
the sound Clouds were flying through the
sky and the moonlight uncertain, but as
he drew nearer he could see a large, grayish
animal gnawing at ear of corn, the stalk
of which it had bent down.
As Lee crept forward inside one of the
rows of corn. he pinched himself to see if he
was really awake.
He felt that he must retrieve the reputa-
ton which the nights past adventures had
forfeited
He watched the shadowy hulk of the ami
NAL as it raised itself on its hind feet and
suspciously shifted the air. He knew that
he must make the effect of his onslaught as
effective as possible, so he crept, trying to
get near as he ccdld-forty feet, thirty
fcet-yet the animal was quietly munching
the corn
Lee sank to one knee and took long and
careful aim This time he pulled but one
trigger. AT the report the bear plunged for
ward, and Lee met its charge by firing the
remaining barrel.
The shaggy mass sank to the ground rose
again, and came directly at its enemy. Lee
dropped his gun and turned to run, just as
the bear struck him with one of its fore
paws and sent him headlong to the earth
but the amman had no Time to take VEN
geance on its PROSTATE foe. The sharp crack
Of Joe's rifle rang through the woods, the
bear dropped lifeless and the trapper ran for
ward to examine the fallen boy.
In few moments Lee regained his breath,
and was able to sit up and look about him
cts lucky the bear was pretty well used
up when you got that blow, or we should
have some broken bones to attend to," re-
marked Joe
Lee limped back to the cabin and the 9th
ers followed him, dragging the bear. The
trapper lit his lantern and they examined
the animals coat. 1t was large black
bear, of the common variety, but the long
hair on its sides and back was thoroughly
smeared with honey, and mixed with the hon
ey was mass of dried leaves, MOSES and
withered forest growths of all kinds there
being enough of it. together with the brown
summer fur to cause person catching only
hasty glimpse of the animal to pronounce it
entirely gray.
The trapper explained that it was not un-
common for bear, which was lucky enough
to find a bee tree. to smear itself with the
honey, but he had never seen one SO com
pletely covered as this.
When Lee finally crawled into his bunk he
was sore and somewhat bruised, but he felt
happy in the knowledge that his last achieve
ment oyershadowed what had gone before.
In spite of the acb-rabbit, his reputation was
safe

on hunting expeditions, with a boat and
guide under his sole control but Lee was an
exception to the usual city boy who some
times finds his way into the woods.
Since the time when Lee was ten years old,
his summers and autumns had been spent at
his fathers cottage at Lake st. Charles, one
of the best known sheets of water in the
Adirondacks; so Lee was a better woods
man than many of his seniors.
Far back from the lake, on the banks of
Trout Inlet, stood the little CABIN of Joe Dut-
ton. He led a rough and solitary life no
neighbors being within ten miles, except the
wild creatures by the destruction of which
he gained livelihood.
In the summer Joe fished, in the autumn
he hunted and trapped and in the winter he
shut himself into his log hut and seemed to
lie dormant as bears do in their dens among
the rocks.
1t was to the trapper's home that Lee
Marston and his guide were journeying.
They had rowed across the lake-a dis
tance of four miles-and now for an hour
they had been. toiling among the sharp
curves of the inlet.
In some places the stream was not more
than SIX or eight feet wide, and it was a
difficult matter to prevent the bow of the
beat from running into the bushes which
partially overhung the water
The Canadian guide, Antoine, stood in the
front part OF the boat and steered its course
dS peSO ne couiu, WINE Lee SAT IN the stern
and worked with long paddle
They were nearing the end of their iour-
ney, when scramble and rush on the inlet s
bank Just in front of the boat caused Lee to
look up.
He caught glimpse Of large gray ami
nal, which sprang from the waters edge and
disappeared among the bushes.
Selling his shotgun, Lee brought it to his
shoulder, but the game was out Of sight.
The animal was standing on narrow strip
OF land around which the stream made a
sharp turn, and in a moment more they
heard 1t plunge into the water where it had
to cross the inlet in its flight.
Antoine tried to. shove the boat forward so
as to see around the point; but, in his haste.
he pushed the bow into some bushes, and
their progress was delayed
Finally, when they reached the place where
the animal must have crossed the stream. a
mass of bubbles on the tranquil waters alone
marked the spot where it had made its
plunge. Some large, indistinct tracks we're
visible on, the dead leaves which thickly COW
cred the banks.
''What was 1t, Antoine" asked Lee.
Los Angeles herald., 1907-11-24

NE afternoon, early in September.
Lee Marston and his guide were
padding their boat up the narrow,
sluggish stream of Trout Inlet.

PROPERTY
 IS BEING
 ASSESSED

Today sees the commencement of the work of the city assessor for the present year.
 Deputy Assessor John D. Flanagan started down town this morning and began his duties.
 City Clerk Lucas will act as as- sessor in addition to his other duties, and will try to complete the work by Septemebr.
 MT. Lucas says that the tax roll of the city should be larger this year than formerly because of the fact that the townsite trustee has given patents to lots which had not been assessed in former years and which. therefore, are additions to city property.
 The assessor is not quite certain that he and his deputy can perform all the work. but they are going to put forth their best efforts to do so ,undis- mayed by the fact that larger forces have been occupied in former years with the same.
 The board of equalization is due to sit September 1, at which time all the business of the assessor must be ready for consideration.

In effect, MT. Grigsby said, "The letter to which you refer has been received, and it's contents duly noted. I am not at liberty to discuss the business of this office, or the business of the United States government. My actions in re- gard to the communication will speak for themselves"

Although no accidents have occurred on the Seward Peninsula railroad for the past few weeks, the fact remains that the law is still being violated by the company, and that the owners of the property are subject to fine for every day that they operate train without the necessary automatic coup lers for the cars and with no air brakes on thei rengines.
 The trains are running over a rattle trap track, and the trainmen are said to be keeping a vigilant watch out for acidents, but the old adage teaches that Familiarity breeds contempt" and it is only a question of little time when they will become accustomed to the
