Miss Katie Sharp, Daring Big Game
Hunter, Splendid Horsewoman
and Dead Shot With
Rifle.

Houston, Tex.-One of the most
daring and dauntless big game hunters
in the upper Rio Grande border re-
Sanderson. She is splendid shot
with rifle and revolver and is the
equal of any cowboy horsewomanship.
She has gone on many hunting expe-
ditions into the Santa Rosa mountains
of Mexico where bears, deer and other
wild animals abound. She has in her
home many trophies of the chase,
among them being the skins of sew
eral large black bears that she killed.
On bear hunting trip into Mexi-
co, last winter, she had a narrow es-
cape from being badly injured, or pos
sibly killed, by a bear which she had
wounded. She encountered the ami
NAL in a narrow canyon in the noun
tains and the two were within doz-
en- feet of each other before either
was aware of the others presence.
Miss Sharp quickly brought the rifle
that she carried to her shoulder and
taking quick aim fired at the bear.
The first shot went wild, but the sec
ond stopped the animal just as it was
within almost reaching distance of
Miss Sharp. With her hunting knife
she put an end to the struggle of the
beast.
This intrepid huntress knows no
such thing as fear. She frequently
goes out alone into remote localities
Of the border region and bags deer
and game birds. She knows all of the
trails leading through the hills and

Grande and is also familiar with ev-
