Big Game Hunter Takes
 Remarkable Photograph
Dr. T. Arbuthnot of Pittsburgh, Pa. |, Has the Nerve to Use His Camera
 On Grizzly Only 30 yds. Away

Dr. T. Arbuthnot, a big game hunter from Pittsburg, Pa., who has been in the Dease Lake re- gion for the past two months, re- gently did a most daring stunt as a prelude to killing a grizzly.
 The doctor has several hobbies, oneof which is photography. His many remarkable outdoor pie lures show that he has long since passed out of the amateur class. He took along a real camera on his trip into the Cassiar this sea- son.. One day when he had gone out with his camera to get a land scape view he came upon a grizzly not lover 30 yards away. He quickly placed his tripod and threw the black covering over his head Charlie Quasi, the Indian guide, was scared half to death, and kept exclaiming: Shoot! Doctor! Shoot!" The doctor turned around and gently patted the guide on the shoulder, and told him hot to get excited, adding that there was more sport in shooting with a camera than with a gun. The bear was moving slowly, and manifesting curiosity in what was taking place. Being apparently undecided just what move to make, the bear paused, looking straight into the camera. At that moment Dr. Arbuthnot squeezed the bulb and secured a plate of great scientific value. He then used his rifle and the bear was soon still enough for another picture. It measured ' fee 6 inches.
 The doctors picture will rank with that of the famous bear pie ture taken by F. J. Haynes in 1917, where a mother bear in Yellowstone park is shown suck ling a pair of hungry cubs.

Good Reports From
 Harrington Property

Captain s. c. Harrington ar- rived Sunday from his mining property on Deloire creek, 100 miles northeast of Telegraph Creek. Captain Harrington took over claims from the Mitchell brothers, and went in with a crew of men a few weeks ago. He has taken in supplies enough to pro- vide for the several men who will remain on the property during the winter. He will return north with a crew of men early next May. The property is placer ground, and will be worked as a hydraulic proposition. Barring ton is doing little talking himself, but other mining men who have been on his property are of the opinion that he will make a good cleanup next season.

fred Bender Goes to
 Arizona for Winter

Fred Bender, an old timer in the Cassiar, will leave on the next boat south for Quartzite, Arizona, where he has a quartz property. MT. Bender also has mining property on Dease Creek, and states that he will return north in the spring in time to go up the Stikine on the first boat after navigation opens. He ex- poets to simplify the packing problem between his property and Telegraph Creek by putting on a Bon Ton Ford truck to be used out of Telegraph Creek as far as the road will permit. The Government is extending the road, and by the end of next sea, son MT. Bender will be able to operate his auto truck from Tele- graph Creek to Dease Lake.

During the past week the mat ter of observing the first anni- versary of the signing of the ar mistice, (Nov. ID was brought up in the local lodges. It was pro- posed that the three lodges go in together for a rousing patriotic celebration. All the lodges were heartily in favor of an observance, but upon consideration of the matter. there arose a question as to the propriety of secret orders assuming charge of celebration of a strictly public nature. Fol- lowing this decision, six lodge members, who are also represen- tative citizens, reported to the mayor that it was the consensus of opinion in the lodges that the same procedure should be fol- lowed for the observance of Ar mistice Day as the Fourth of July. The Mayor at once issued a call for a public meeting to be L.cld in the town hall tomorrow (Friday) evening.

Biggest Hydraulic Proposition on
 The Continent
Geo. Adams Has 13 K-Mile Leases on Tibet Creek and Will Operate Four Distinct Hydraulic Plants, Each Using Two No. 6 Giants.

MT. and Mrs. George Adams arrived Sunday on the Hazel B No. 1, and will leave on the City of Seattle for Skagway from which place they will go to Atlin. After a short visit there they will go to Seattle, remaining out side during the winter.
 MT. Adams is operating on Ti- bet Creek, using two No. 6 Giants. The property is 107 miles north east of Telegraph Creek.
 The natural conditions on this property could scarcely be more favorable for hydraulic opera tions. The water used has 400 feet head pressure, and the SUD- ply is practically unlimited. The Tibet Creek valley affords 300 feet of dumping grounds.
 The property consists of 13 one-half mile leases. Mir. Adams is preparing for the operation on this property of four distinct hy- draulic plants, each using two No. 6 Giants. These will make this the largest hydraulic proposi- tion on the continent.

CaIIbreath Says CaSSiarWiII Boom
 Next Season
Sid Harrington Will Put a Boat on Dease River-Big Cattle Company Organized to Put Cattle in the Klap. pan Valley-Another Com pany Will Bore for Oil.

Last week the Sentinel request ed MT. J. Frank Callbreath of Telegraph Creek to send us some news from that region before the close of navigation for the winter. The last boat of the sea- son which arrived yesterday af- ternoon brought the following letter:
 Telegraph Creek, B. c.
 October 16, 1919. MT. J. w. Pritchett,
 Wrangell, Alaska. Dear Mir. Pritchett:
 While this season has been a hummer it is not a marker to what the next will be.
 A company of twenty men are coming with a drill to bore for oil in the Klappan district.
 The quartz zone discovered by Asp & Go. when they made their trip into the basin of the Whiting river is bound to be we'll pros- pected.
 The wonderful showing made by MT. George Adams the last few weeks of the season with the old Berry Creek hydraulic property will cause other prop critics to be opened; especially when it becomes known that Sid Harrington intends to put a gasboat on Dease river so that it will be possible to make a trip to the interior and get out again in a few days instead of taking all summer for the trip as it does now.
 There is a large cattle company organized in Vancouver to put cattle in the Klappan valley. The cattle will be driven in from Ha- zelton, but the supplies will go in from here.
 So cheer up; Wrangell will again boom as the gateway of the Stikine.
 Sincerely,
 J. F. CALLBREATH.

C. A. Tervo Kills Four
 Grizzlys at One Time
Canadian Customs Officer Tackles Pack of Five Grizzlys With Only Eleven Rounds of
 Ammunition
Ammunition

A new record in game hunting was established this week when G. A. Tervo brought down four grizzlys in as many minutes.
 During the past season 25 no- table big game hunters from the East visited the Cassiar and were eminently successful, but they will all have to take their hats off to MT. Tervo, the Canadian Collector of Customs at the Boun- dary.
 Last Saturday evening Mr. Tervo was canoing on the Stikine when he spied a pack of five grizzlys near the river bank. He had only II cartridges in his rifle and none in his belt, but he quietly drew up close to the bank and opened fire. He brought down four of the five griZzlys be- fore exhausting his ammunition.
 The shooting attracted the at tention of Messrs. Gale and Fin ley Hunter, two big game hunt. CTS who were nearby. They hur- ried to the scene, but by the time they got there it was so dark that it was difficult to shoot and four wounded grizzlys were something to reckon with. The Hunter brothers opened fire on the mass of seething grizzlys, and after about 50 rounds had been fired the ebullition ceased, and the party advanced and took possession of the carcasses.
 It is said that Mir. Tervo, in- stead of being elated over his prowess, was terribly humiliated over having let the fifth grizzly escape.
 Before going into the business of killing grizzlys by the whole sale MT. Tervo had previously killed five grizzlys this season.
 In view of the terrible destruc- ton that follows in the wake of MT. Tervo when he is out for pastime, one naturally wonders what would have happened if he had ever gotten to the front dur ing the war.

A party of local people, which included four ladies. spent Satur- day and Sunday on Stikine flats. None of the ladies were Sour doughs, and the experience of a duck hunt in Alaska was a novel one which they fully appreciated. By wearing trousers and rubber boats, they were able to get out and enjoy themselves as much as the men. The trip was made on the Karen with Capt. Knig Jo- hansen in command.

Alaska Day was fittingly cele- brated by the large gathering of townspeople at the schoolhouse. Speeches were made by Peter Annasket, the town mayor, and by Rev. Bromley.
