From kodak films to the finest of

Attn basket of marvellous workman

everything of unique and artistic

store here decade ago lie began col
lecting Alaskan curios of all sorts,
and today has veritable museum
of native crafts of the entire Terri
tory. Beside this line, the store car
ries very fine stock of furs, both
made up and in the whole skin.
Aside from his regular business, Mr..
Case, who was originally photo
grapher, has become very well
recognized as a nature photographer,
and has an unusually fine collection
of Alaskan views. AS a hunter he
ranks among each seasons early gun
ners and brings in many an enviable

cided to use as a camp site the place
selected by ourselves.
After arriving at our destination,
we left the natives to make camp and
secuted around the neighborhood for
short time, with no more definite
purpose in view than to look for some
signs" and upon cur return found
the camp well located and a good
supper ready.
The first incident of any conse-
quence occurred the next morning.
The Alaskan days at this season Of
the year, early in May, are beginning
to lengthen, and at about three o'clock
in the morning, Jake, who had re-
membered Jim's caution of the night
before, and had been sleeping with
one eye open, slipped into our tent
and shaking us out of our blankets,
pointed eXcitedly to the beach saying
There's big brown bear" Scram-
bling out in our undergarments and
rubbing our eyes we made out a big,
dark object, numbering along the
rocky reef about 200 yards from the
camp and headed up the bay. Owing
to the bad light we did not attempt
shot, but dressing hurriedly we
took the boat and proceeded to fol.

been long period from the time Of
it's first breaking. Upon closer ex-
animation we found a smaller front
tooth missing, and upon laying a pen
Gil in the cavity thus created, it fell
directly in line with the broken tusk
convincing us that in all probability
the bear had been shot by some high
power small calibre gun, thus break
ing out the front tooth entirely and
tearing the tusk loose.
We also found in his shoulder the
copper jacket from a 5000 shell, that
had been largely absorbed by the
heat and action Of the body, and also
evidences of bullet holes in the back
and other parts of the body, which
clearly indicated that bruin was an
old warrior of the hills and had been
in such contests before.
The shot that took away the teeth
had evidently been fired from direct
ly in front and at close range. What
the bear did to the one who fired is
one of the mysteries of the woods
that will never be known. and it

head of Seymour Canal. There are
many of these portages in the islands
of the Alexander archipelago, and by
using them a journey of possibly a
hundred miles by water may be saved
i'm a portage of a mile or so.
Besides the usual interests Of a
hunting trip, we learned something of
the native customs and habits, and
something of their resOurcefulness in
supplying their needs in the woods
when lacking in equipment necessary
to accomplish the various purposes
of hunting and caring for game.
We spent several hours in getting
our packs across the portage and
camped at the further end the
first night out, going out on the high
tide the following morning about four
o'clock, the country across which the
skidway is built is characteristic of
this section of Alaska, being tundra

we are disposed to think her per.

after we fell back upon sail and
"white-ash," a tarpaulin having been
very skilfully converted by the In
dians into a native sail.
The Thlinket Indians have adopted
the names of white men with amusing
results. The older one of our guides,
and the one upon whom we relied the
most because of his familiarity with
the section in which we proposed to
hunt, bore the rather meaningless
name of Jim John, which gave, of
course, no clue to his ancestry. Such
names are common among the In
dams, and many of them apparently
have never grasped the idea of a
family name. Jake Williams, how
yer, had come more in contact with
the civilization of the white men,
and his name carried with it some
notion of family relationship. He was
also much better versed in the Eng
lish language, and acted as interpre-
ter between ourselves and the guide
We planned to camp at a point
about twenty-five miles from Juneau,
so this left us a run of about eight
miles from the head of Seymour can
al. In going down, we concluded we
would like to camp at the head of
the long bay in which we had enter
ed, but Jim John demurred to this
and related a hair-raising personal
experience of the time when he was
chased out on a reef, then visible in
the distance, and kept there all the
night by three brown bears. Jim
much preferred the other side of the
bay, a long narrow peninsula, as be-
ing less dangerous, but as we were
looking for large brown bears, we de-

We watched the preliminary work
of skinning the bear, then left the
natives at their task, and began to
hunt in the neighborhood for other
game. Returning later on we found
that the skin had been completely
removed, and the natives were busy

A Leading Hotel Proprietor

Since Harry F. Cain came to Juneau
from California the hotel business
here has been revolutionized. Two
wears ago "a room with bath, top"
was a thing of dreams only. Today
there are several hotels with the mod
ern conyeniencies, and one Of them
is owned by Mr.. Cain. 1t is the New
Cain" gracing the corner of Main and
Third Streets, in the handsome 5-story
lynda Block. 1t is semi-fireproof, and
has in all 81 rooms, of which IL are
connected with private bath, and the
attractive lobby has made it a favor
,te with the transient public since it
was opened. During the recent leg
;s,ative session, most Of the members
were registered at the New Cain.
With an eye on the old maxim that
"t ia the little things that count"
Manager Cain has steadily furnished

-HE NET results of a six-days'
bear hunt were five minutes OF
excitement and sport, and a ten
foot bear skin.
We were accompanied on our trip
by two Indian guides, and equipped
with a siXteen-foot boat and Koban
motorcycle engine. and in addition a
twelve-foot skiff for the purpose of
carrying the excess load and making
our larger boats more roomy and
comfortable.
The first run was to divers In
let. approximately sixteen miles from
juneau. where we made the portage
of a mile with our provisions and
boats across an old Indian skidway.
This skidway was used by the Indians
for many years before the white men
came to this section, for the purpose
