Observations made throughout Q number of years by officers of the United States revenue maiine prove that the polar bears limit of range is St. Matthew island in Bering sea. 4 few of these bears were at one time seen near the seal islands, being adrift upon a huge ice foA On St. Matthew island the bears have lairs and dens among the rock glens that abound upon the island, They feed almost entirely upon. seals, walruses and dead drift whales. and. though disdaining to devour tle blubber, the flesh is greedily consumed A carcass upon which a bear has passed his gastro' homie judgment reveals the skin and it's fatty lining torn asunder, the flesh being cut into strips and shreds by the powerful claws and teeth. A single blow of bears paw upon seals head sufices to kill it, and, dragged out upon the ice, a meal is soon dis. patched.
 In summer the hairy coat Of the polar bear turns to a dingy yellow and it's pelt then becomes of no value They have not near the courage oi the interior bears and will rarely at tack a person unless there are two or three in company. As soon as they scent man approaching they, as rule, will Shamble off as fast ss they can, and there are but few records Oi a bear killing any of the natives along the northern coast.
 The Eskimos are very partial to the meat of tue white bear, but the 0luD' Der they reject, and even the dogs, un' less they are very hungry, turn up their noses at the oily mass. Ten years ago It was a hard matter to SC cure the entire skin of polar bear The EskimOs formerly cut of the head and claws and either threw then into the sea or buried them In the ground.
