Hunters Kill Bia Grizzly.

The monster grizzly bear that for years has been making many sieepless nights for the farmers, miners and residents of the northwestern Trinity region has at last been slain.
 This monarch of the forest and slayer of small domestic animals was killed by Thomas Mcdonald, a wealthy mining man who has been camping along the Salmon range in Trinity.
 Single-handed Mcdonald, who is a mountaineer or marked ability. killed the bear after a lively tussle.
 The bear weighed 1000 pounds. and is the finest and biggest specimen ever seen in the Trinity mountain re- gions. The animal had for years de- fed all efforts to capture or kill him. -Maryvillo Correspondence San Fran. cisco Call

Gam l7a:d4ng s l rophy Duke By csy'.,

Among the first who built their cabins on the shore of the beautiful Ossipee lake was a man by the name of Sam Harding.
 Alone with his wife and child he had threaded the forest that lay be- tween the settlements at Dover Point and the lake, and, once arrived upon it's banks, he built his cabin, and set about his work at once of clearing up a homestead.
 For many years there had been sus- pended from a smoke-stained beam above the broad fireplace a trophy of the early days he had spent on the shore of the lake.
 It was an Indians scalp.
 So long had it hung there that it was as dried and smoke-begrimed as the beam itself.
 Few there were of his visitors who, remarking it, failed to inquire why it was thus preserved.
 To these he did not fail to tell it's history, as we shall do now.
 We will give it in his own words so the reader may imagine that he is sitting in the cabin of the old pio- neer, with the strange trophy sus- pended before him.
 You ask mo why it is that 1 keep that thing in the house? Well, 1 will tell you.
 When first came up here to set tie on the banks of the Ossipee, it was bowling wilderness for miles and miles on every side.

 But with the redskins it was diff ferent. It want no use to try and thin them out, although there was times when I had to try my hand at it. My plan was to keep on the right side of them if 1 could, but I could not al. ways tell which side that was. They

 "A big bear, one which l judged by his track would weigh at least 500 pounds, had been into my corn, and the way he had finished it was enough to make anybody's temper rise. It seemed as though the critter had trampled down and destroyed a good five bushels of it.
