ESKIMO FIGHTS POLAR

SAVED BY coMRADE
AFTER BATTLE.

Dawson, Alaska,--The story OF item
rifle fight between an Eskimo and q
polar bear is brought from the arctic
slope by Jujiro Wada, the Japanese
musher.
In the middle Of December native
named Nigakuse was in his snow
house, when, on looking out through
the peculiar little place of exit, he
saw a polar bear. The man seized his
rifle and went out to give battle to
the great white animal Thinking It
best to let the bear get within close
range and then TO plug him, the Es-
kmo let the bear advance to within a
few PAGES.
Nigakuse raised his rifle, took steady
aim, and fired.
The next moment he was Mortified
to realize that tho rifle had failed In,
