BEAR QUESTION IS
FINALLY SETTLED
LOCAL MEN WRITE TO HIGH ,Au-
THoRlTY REGARDING BRUINS
WEIGHT

,rhe question of How old is Ann?'
has NOT been half as bothersome dur
ing the past few weeks to some of the
local vaudeville goers as was the set
tlement of dispute regarding the
weight of bear The discussion
arose at the time the wrestling
grizzly appeared at the Grand theatre.
discussion arose as to its weight
and out of that grew a general argu-
1nent as to weights and measures.
Mr.. ]. Chris. Sampson, an employee
of the Richardson abrber shop offered
to settle the question and wrote to
The New York Geological Park. The
following reply was received few
days ago:
! New York, December oath, 1910
Mr.. J. Chris. Sampson,
Devils Lake, North Dakota
Dear Sir:
Your letter Of November 28th, to the
National Sportsman has been referred
to me for reply: The largest species OF
bear in the world is Ursus Gfgas Of
the Alaska Peninsula, which some.
times has a skull measuring 20 II
inches in length The largest speci.
men ever killed was not measured, be.
cause the sportsman's scales were ou
of order. The weight was estimated
at 14O0 pounds, and believe that th'
estimate was fairly correct
The largest bear which I ever knev
to be weighed was a California griz
ely, which died in the menagerie il
Lincoln Park, Chicago, and was weigh
ed at the requst of G. :. Shields. l
weighed 1143 pounds.
