Show I " j Wrestling With a Hear, ' A couple of hunters from the Catskills I followed a bear trail for three days. Near Sundown, a charming little nook, j entirely shut in by great nrountain i peaks, the hunters came suddenly upon , they prey. There was an old bear and j three good sized cubs. They all ran for ! their lives at sight of the hunters, but Levi Small rushed headlong in pursuitof one of the cubs that had made a sense-less sense-less detour, and, slipping on a bit of I treacherous ice, lie went tobogganing t down tho side of the mountain. The cub I was tripped up by one of Small's cow- hide boots, und the shaggy youngster i tool; u funny tumble along with tho ! hunter. Seeing her offspring in danger, the old bear rushed to the scene, but the i companion of Small fired a shot with such good effect that Bruin fell in her trucks. Another ball finished the game, and then attention was directed to the impromptu tobogganer, who was having a rough and tumble fight with the cub. It was quickly dispatched and tho other cubs were taken alive. Philadelphia ! Times. |
