KILLS BLACK BEAR
 ON FARM IN VERMONT
Wcathersfield, Vt, Man Surprises Young Animal Weighing More
 Than 100 Pounds

Springfield, Vt, Oct. 6.-How he surprised young black bear that was feasting on a young calf in the back pasture of Weathersfield farm few nights ago was told today by George Sigbee, 25 years of age, of Weathersfield, who is employed in a local foundry. The bear Sigbee said, weighed more than 100 pounds.
 According to Sigbee's story, he had returned to his home from work in this village and about dusk started to the back pasture to drive the cows to the barn for the night. When approaching the pasture, he noticed a black object some distance from him, busily engaged in feasting on something. His curiosity aroused, he advanced still farther until he saw that the black object in question was a medium sized black bear The bears supper was one of the Sigbee farms choice young calves. Tho bear did not notice Sigbee approach, apparent iy, for it continued to feast.
 Sigbee immediately returned to the farmhouse to get his rifle which he
 
 loaded and hastcned back to the spot where he had seen tho animal. The beast had not moved. Mir. Sigbee said. when he returned. so be pumped a few shots Into the animal killing it instantly
 Then. with the help of others the bear was taken to one of the farm barns and the hide carefully removed. Mir. Sigbec said that it was the first time that any calves had been miss ing from the barn so it was appar- cntly the bears first visit to the place. Mir. Sigbec will. within a few days. collect the s10 bounty that is paid by the state for each bear killed. It was also said that this wasSthe first bear that had been killed in Weath- ersficld in a number of years.
