-FOUR GRIZZLIES
ATTACK HUNTER

VANCOUVER, B. Glow Edward
Anderson, a seasoned hunter Of this
district, shot four grizzly bears when
they had united to attack him is the
--latest story going the rounds in this
vicinity. According to Anderson, the
four bears charged him when he en-
countered them while rambling
through the mountain trails of the
Khutze valley. He sought safety atop
a huge boulder. He had an old 3O-3O
Winchester rifle and only six cart
rigdes. Anderson's aim was true IN
three cases, three of the bears falling
dead with a bullet apiece through
their respective hearts. The fourth
and largest of the quartet, however
was not killed until Anderson had
used all the bullets.
Game Of all kinds is plentiful in
this vicinity, according to the hunters
Of the neighborhOOd. One Of these
sportsmen, E. A. Nicoll, of Vancouver
almost collided with a large grizzly
bear and her two cubs a few days ago
He was so close to the animals tha+
he did not have space enough to leve
his rifle. Instead, he struck the
mother bear in the neck with a dOu
ble-bitted axe. In fright, the animal
with her young, scrambled into tn
thickets and disappeared. The mex
day Nicon encountered the same bea
with her cubs and shot all Of them.
Small game is especially plentiful
in and about the Khutze valley
Hunters are returning from trip
laden with geese and ducks. TIN
happy hunting ground, among others
can be reached by Canadian Pacifi
steamers which touch the Pacifi
coast Of British Columbia en- route I
