Last week all the l'nawe‘cp cowboys
were on the round-up at the head-of the

t‘ouuty (t‘ola paper. They had just
finished moving camp, and Mac Thoma—
soii and Moses .‘lotlit were riding alongr
on their bronchus toward their new quail
ters. They had arrived within a mile of
the camp when they discovored a black
bear in the brush. They at once started
off in pursuit of brain and chased him up
a tree. They determined to capture him,
and, although totally uuarined.save their
lariats. succeeding in 'doiny,r so. They
first cleared away the under‘brush from
around the tree so they could lou~e their
, lariats, and at once commenced the work
of roping him- They roped him several
times. but bruin would. with his forc-
feet. throw the rope off as quickly as it
-fell to his shoulders. Finally Mo—c Mollit
succeeded in fastening him, and putting
his horse in motion dragged the hear
from the tree. As soon as he fell Mac
Thoinason was ready with 1'. club to dis—
patch him,wlrich he did with a few heavy
blows across the head. The boys then
went into camp, where they told their
adventure to their comrades. and then
securing knives went back and removed
the hide. The bear, when dressed,
weighed 250 pounds and was about tWo
years old.

A hairy, fat man in a duster which the

into a ditch. the culvert over which
was drawn by two engines. one of which was

coaches had either gone through the
bridge or were plied in a promiscuous
heap cnrsnvisc and lengthwisl on the
