 The mighty hunters, including Presi dent Roosevelt, of bears and other big game had better go lightly on their Htories for the rest of the season, since the latest instance of the year has become public, although it was not through the chief participant in the incident that 1t was made public.
 This time there was woman in the case. She is Mrs. Mary Moore, who has charge of the linen room at the Antlers hotel at Colorado Springs duF' ing the winter. She spends her sum rars on claim that she has taken up on Cheyenne mountain. above Wade City. Colo, where she has a cabin and lives alone during the summer.
 She left the hotel, as usual, early in the summer, taking with her. among other things, a whole ham and a bunch of roman candles that had been left at the hotel and had been relegat- cd to the linen room with other odds and ends. These were presented 10 her by Manager Cunning when she left this summer.
 One recent night Mrs. Moore was awakened by a noise. She arose hasti- ly and in the bright moonlight saw big bear snuftling about the barricade of chalrs and boxes which she had placed in the open doorway for cooling purposes during the night. The bear had smelled the ham and was after 1t.
 Mrs. Moore was almost paralyZed with fright She had no firearms Of any kind or any chance of securing outside help.
 The bear was rapidly making head way in breaking down the barricade in the doorway. Something had to be done and that quickly.
 Remembering in her excitement that bears are alarmed at the smell of pow der, Mrs. Moore lit one Of the roman candles. After lighting It she whizzed it In narrow circle in front of the bear, some of the balls of fire striking him in the eyes and on the nose.
