HAS NARROW ESCAPE
FROM BIG BEAR

CODY, Wyo., Nov. .21.-One of
fhe most thrilling encounters with
q bear that has been experienced
by hunters in this region for many
years is told by Mrs. F. Stevens,
who, with her. husband, was in the
Pat O'Hara mountains ON hunt
recently.
They were hunting smaller
game, and had no idea of encoun-
tering Bruin, when, after becoming
separated from her husband, Mrs.
Stevens came face to face with five
monster bears, one a silver tip with
Two small cubs. Msr. Stevens
could not escape, and to give battle
with the odds overwhelmingly
against her appeared to be the
rankest kind of folly.
But before she had time to make
mp her mind what best to do, the
mother silver tip charged upon her,
while the other bears beat a hasty
retreat into thicket.
Mrs. Stevens crouched on one
kneen, rested her .25-35 rifle on a
rock and waited for Bruin to get
close enough to make her aim sure,
Then fred. The bullet shattered
the lower jaw of the brute.
The shot only staggered the ami
NAL, however. for with an angry
snarl she sprang forward and
knocked Mrs. Stevens down with
one sweep OF her paw. Jumping
npon her. the bear attempted to get
1T Mrs. Stevens throat. But did
nothing more than TO scratch the
skin.
With rare presence OF mind the
tmperiled woman lay flat on the
ground and thus prevented the bear
from getting her huge paws under
Der to crush her by hugging.

merely crawled out from under the

thing scudded away again, bearing
it's burden of over rich miserables.

slider problems with which they are
confronted because of competition
with plants using the machine blowing

that most of the plants now shut down
may be operated and the financial

facturers to lower or lift prices as may
