FOUR BEARS IN FEW MINUTES
Trapper Gets Family That Stole His
Bread and Nails, and Has Skins
to Prove 1t.

Two large black bears and two cubs
were killed within sight of Dawson,
by Bill Roman, after an exciting ex.
perience. Roman has a cabin on Dion
Gulch. above the city three miles.
While sitting in the place with his
back to the door in the evening he
noticed the place suddenly overcast
by a shadow.
Il turned, little suspecting anything
serious" says Roman, when to my
horror | saw a huge black bear stand,
ing few feet away. 1 leaped to my
feet and grabbed my IA caliber Win
chester, which is always near the
door. 1 wasted no time and fired when
the brute was ten feet away. The
ball struck him in the breast, but did
not seem to feaZe him. The beast
rushed forward and was prepared to
make a ferocious attack. He made
one powerful side swipe at me.
sidestepped and when he was just at
the muzzle drove the second bullet
home. It passed into his brain and
he reeled over at my feet, on my very
doorstep.

Swede, but l proved to that fellow it
Is a bad day for bears when they
tackle the sons of the north.
well, yes, was excited, but 1 had
killed many bears, and the feeling
soon wore off. I then dragged the
carcass around the house and got it
on the roof and prepared to skin him.
What was my surprise when I had
barely started the work to look up
and see q mother bear and two pretty
cubs advancing through the brush. |
had left my gun in the cabin, but it
was only a minute until | had leaped
down, darted into the house and back
with the rifle. One more shot and
had brought down the mother. Two
more shots and I had bagged the
cubs.
"The little fellows weighed 25
pounds each and made delicious
steaks. I was up all that night skin

male bear was large fellow. 1 think
he had been there before.
only a day or two previous I had
been away from the cabin for q day
and had left a sack OF bread, which
had bought in Dawson, under the bed
in the sack. Some bear came in, took
the sack, bread and all, and ran away
with it into the gulch tracked him
and found some of the bread. A
pound of nails also were in the sack,
and I regret the fellow took them off
and hid them, because I needed those
nails with which to stretch his hide.

Suruery to Prevent Murder.

DR.. Echols Ardman, criminologist,
has come to the conclusion that the
form of insanity that causes murder is
a small bone pressing against part of
the brain and that a small operation,
removing the bone that is pressing
and inserting thin silver plate, will
turn the murderer into kind hearted
person.
The trouble, DR.. Ardman confesses.
that is hardest to overcome is to find
the man with criminal tendencies and
perform the operation before and not
after the crime. The murderer usually
Is harmless in appearance and seems
normal before committing a crime,
