Show alio had a practical mind miss jessie gordon daughter of a rancher who lives in the woods in kitsap county while returning home after visiting her uncle saw a big black bear standing within a few feet of the trail and apparently waiting for her to come closer womanlike her first impulse was to scream at tha top of her voice her second to start for home at the fullest speed along tho trail she had over half a mile to go the bear apparently scared by the shriek started on a parallel track in the same direction over fallen logs and through thick brush the race was a neck and neck one both contestants making good time finally on ar at the young ladys home the bear politely passed around by the back into the woods while the other contestant passed like a whirlwind into the front room by the open door and fell exhausted on the floor she did net gu into hysterics but suggested to her father as soon as she regained her breath that he might as well take his gun and look for that bear instead of standing there asking foolish questions seattle press |
