TRAPPER NEAR DEATH FOL-
 LOWING FIGHT WITH BEAR

CORDOVA.-After lying for more than a month alone in the wilds of Interior Alaska, with one leg burned off nearly to the knee and the other foot badly burned, Nick Raworth, young Canadian war veteran, was taken to the Kennecott hospital to- day.
 On November Raworth, who was operating a trap line on the Gulkana river, was attacked by a bear. His dog fought nobly to save his masters life, but lost his own in the attempt. The bear then turned on Raworth, knocking him unconscious.
 What happened next Raworth does not remember. He evidently came to and started a fire, but shock and loss of blood carried him into coma. When he next became conscious one leg was burned off to the knee and his other foot was badly injured.
 Sucering intense agony he crawled 15 miles to one of his cabins, where he lay week after week, scarcely able to secure food and water. He was found in this condition this week by an Indian, who packed him by dog team to Copper Center, 30 miles away
 Raworth was then taken to Chitina, where he was placed aboard Copper River 6 Northwestern railroad train and taken to the Kennecott hospital. It is undetermined whether he has fighting chance to live.
