Earle bagged was no cub, as it measured eight feet.
 According to the guides Mrs. Earle is the seventh woman hun ter to go above the Telegraph creek region. She is exceedingly modest as to her bunting achieve mnts, and does not seem to feel that she has done anything out of the ordinary. It was only through other members of the party that the reporter managed to learn of her remarkable prow- ess as a huntswoman. We greatly regret that space will not permit us us to print a full account of Mrs. .Earl's experience in killing a large grizzly. It was most eS- citing from the start, and if written up would make a thrilling story deserving first place in any of the leading sporting magazines

Bank Has New Connection


 Attention is directed to the new d of the Bank of Alaska 1t will be noted tAat the Corn Exchange National Bank of Chicago has been added to the list of eoeres- pondent banks. The growing busi- ness of the Bank of Naska in the Middle West necessitated the es- tablishment of direct financial con- nection in Chicago which resulted in their becoming affiliated with the Corn Exchange National. This new banking relationship is an other evidence of the desire of the bank to anticipate the most exact- ing requirements of its customers. The bank is now in a position to handle business direct, and there fore promptly, with Juneau. San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, and New York.

 Yesterday one of tho biz game hunters while in cooweTsatian with the reporter said; Our friends in the East would readily swallow anything we would tell them about our hunting trip. built would be al. most impossible to get even the most .credulous person in New York to believe that on the fourth day of August we saw aD apple tree in Alaska SO full of fruit that the branches were hanging downward. The gentleman had just been viewing the tree in the yard of Donald Sinclair and said it was more of . revelation to him than anything he saw on his biz hunt ing trip.

PARTY OF BIG GAME HUNTETS
 IN WRANGELL
Yomng Woman From New Ymk City Who Had Never Fired a Gum Previous to This Trip Kills Grizzly.

A pGrty of big game hunters arrived last Sunday from the Ka- pan ,aeuntry in British Columbia bringing a canar of wild animal pelts Hs a trophy of their chase.
 In the party were:
 A. E. Vincelletse, president of the Fchburg Enamel Co.,, of Fnhburg, Mass
 Dr. H. A. Siftonof Milwaukee.
 R. A. Uihlein, secretary of the Schlitz Brewing company of Milwaukee, and a director in the Second Ward Savings Bank of Milwaukee.
 MT. and Mas. R. w. Earle of New York City who are on their honeymoon. Mir. Earle is a broker
 The game bagged was as tfel lows:
 A. E. Vincellette: three cnri bou, four black bear, one g1Gzzfy bear. two sheep three goat, two coyote.
 R. A. Uihlein: six car5hou, five sheep and four moose.
 D. H. A. Sifton: six bear, four of which were grizzlies.
 Mrs. Earle: three caribou, two sheep, one of which measured Al inches. grizzly measuring eight feet, three goat.
 MT. Earle: three caribou, three sheep and two RrHzzlies. (Mr. Earle was not hunting for moose)
 The party were tout 45 days although not engaged in actual hunting more than 10 days.
 Probably the most experienced hunter in the party is MT. Vim cellette- His hunting trips have been numerous Last winter he was on a hunting trip in Nyo- ming. Frost, the man who acted as his guide, was a month later horribly used up by a g1Izzly, al- though he recovered Mir. Vim cellette is a most enthusiastic Elk, being a member of No l237 at Lecminster, Mass. La&wanter while in Wyoming he MFled an Elk having antlers with a spread of forty-eight inches. He pre- semted the anth&s to Leominster Elks lodge and also sent the lodge some choice elk steaks which was a great novelty in New Eng land
 The members of the party are urging Mr. Virpellette to write an account of the present trip for one of the national sporting mag azines.
 To the people of this setion there is nothing unusual or re- markable about the killing of a grizzly, although even the natives regard grizzly bear hunting as hazardous But there was one killing by a member of the party that is truly remarkable, and has caused considerable local com ment. Mrs. Earle who until her marriage recently, was a New York society girl, is the most re- markable woman hunter who has ever game up the Stikine. She is small in size, not weighing over 100 pounds, and had never fired a gun before leaving New York. On this trip she not only learned to ride and shoot, but became the most successful hunter in the party. One of the caribou she killed was the largest brought down this season, while one of the goats she bagged was also the largest killed this season. But mountain goats and caribou are tame animals compared with a grizzly. and the grizzly Mrs.
