 Hans Larson, prospector on the Stewart river, was severely mauled by bear recently. He was bend ing over piece of quartz, when the bear attacked him from behind, tearing his scalp badly and taking strips from his back an inch wide and two inches deep in places. He killed the bear with his rifle and mushed ten miles to another camp tion. He will recover, although very weak from loss of blood.
 Carl Nigl, an alien enemy who has been tripping Uncle Sam's fur bearing animals for some time, is in the tolls of the law, on account of misplaced sympathy and ignoring his obligations to the country which is giving him living. Nigl built him self a cabin in the Kantishna dis trict, and on the porch over the door way he painted large sign bearing the legend Villa Hindenburg" and facsimile of the German iron cross. Several trappers with less furs and more patriotism objected to the Hindenburg line being estab lished so close to their trenches, and went over the top after Nigl, and now he is safely interned where he can reflect upon the beauties of the German Government to his hearts content. He had also failed to reg ister as an alien enemy, and it was shown at the trial that he knew of this requirement and had failed to act. By the time he gets out he will be entitled to the German cross for his foolishness.
