E. C. Miller of Hood River gave the
Chronicle office a pleasant call today.
A New Bear Story.
Jim Underbill, of Boyd, paid a friendly
visit to the Chronicle sanctum yester
day and in the course of pleasant con
versation something was said about a
bear when Jim asked the Chronicle
man if he had ever heard of the adven
tme he bad with a bear one time. The
sciibe modestly replied that he had not
had that pleasure when Jim related the
following which we give ip, as nearly as
possible, his own words.
"It was in the early sixties and I was
down at Santa Cruz, California, where 1
had a job helping to build a ' saw mill.
A large force of men was employed and,
as was tha custom in those days, we
kept one man employed all the time
hunting game for the camp. The name
by which this particular hunter was
known was that of Redheaded Charley.
I never knew his real name. He was as
fine a marksman as ever pulled a trigger
and as all kinds of game was plentiful in
those days Redheaded Charley had little
trouble keeping the camp well supplied.
Just at this particular time the woods
were full of grizzlies and Charley and I
had -made it up to have a hunt one Sun
day when I had knocked off work. We
started early in the morning and made
for a' point called Chase's. Landing,
about five miles distant from camp,
Charley carrying a dinner bucket and
warer flask. We had reached a fiat where
there was a pretty dense covering of
hazel brush and thicket when we spied,
on a hillside about seventy-five yards
from us, a big female grizzley. It was
the first time I bad been so near a live
bear in its native jungle and you bet I
began to get mighty weak about the
knees. Presently Charly said 'I'm go
ing to shoot, and if I should happen to
miss her you must look out for yourself.'
It was no sooner said than he let fly and
the shot evidently took effect but not
seriously and the next instant the bear
came lumbering down the hill towards-
us as fast as her heels -could carry her.
We lost no time, you may be sure, seek
ing the safety of two friendly fir trees
which we hastily climbed, taking the
precaution of bringing our guns with us.
The two trees were at convenient speak
ing distance and the bear had taken to
the tree that Charley had climbed, but
the brush was so thick around the root
of Charley's tree that I could not get
sight of the bear. Still I was as much
afraid to get down from the tree as
Charley was and there that bear kept
the two of us from about 9 o'clock in the
morning, all that day and all the next
night till nearly .10 o'clock the following
morning."
"Why did not Chariey shoot her?"
asked the scribe.
"That's what I'm going to tell you,"
answered Jim. "You see it was betore
the days of breech-loaders and Charley
had unfortunately dropped his' ramrod
and could.not, therefore, load his gun,
I had got terribly hungry at the last and
I bethought me of a plan to do away
with that bear that worked like a charm.
I told Charley to' pour a good charge of
powder-into his gun, which he did.
Then ho took a bullet and placed it inside
the muzzle of his rifle, pressing it in a
little with his finger. The he took his
knife and whittled the round part that
projected out of the muzzle till it was
bright and clear as a new silver quarter.
The he pointed the gun fairly at me and
I took careful aim at the bullet and fired.
My ball struck the one in Charley's gun
square in the. center and drove it home
to the breach A moment more and
the beat lay dead at the foot of Cljarley's
tree with the two bullets in its heart."
: A Trio of Slick Counterfeiters -.
On Tuesday evening last three men
called at the house of J, H. Mosier of
Mosier and asked to be kept over' night.
They had walked the track from The
Dalles claiming that they had missed
the boat that morning and they were on
their way so they said to Portland.
They had supper, bed, and breakfast
next morning for which they succeeded
in passing off on Mr. Moeier a counter
feit twenty dollar piece, and receiving
seventeen, dollars and a half in change.
The men breakfasted and left before
daylight taking' the track going west and
Mr. Mosier put the bogus twenty dollar
piece in a purse and thought no more
about it till next day when he discovered
that he had been duped. Mr. Mosier
has notified the authorities and it is to
be hoped the scoundrels may be caught.
The three men are described as about
the age of thirty years each. One of
tbern is low set with black mustache and
bald bend, having only a little hair back
of his ears. Another is of medium size,
of very slight build and wore . no beard.
The third wore dark side whiskers with
his chin clean shaved. He was dressed
in long yellow or light brown colored
overcoat and carried a bundle done up
in a piece of oilcloth. TKey evidently
went west as men answering to their
description we.-e seen at Hood River. '.

Ipqsiest on the Body of Ralph Fonger-
In the case of the man Fonger who
was struck by a passing locomotive at
this place last Monday, the jury last
night ordered a post-mortem- examina
tion which was made by Drs. Hollister
and Southerland when a large piece of
meat was fonnd lodged in the man's
windpipe about two inches from the top,
which completely filled the cavity and
made breathing impossible. The meat
had lodged there while the man was
vomiting under, the influence of the
anesthetic and. was undoubtedly the
immediate cause of his death. The jury
returned a verdict accordingly: "We
the jury, duly sworn and empaneled . to
investigate the cause of death of Ralph
Fonger do find from the evidence ad
duced by "postmortem examination made
at the request of the jury by Doctors
Hollister and Southerland who state
under '" oath . that Ralph Fonger came to
his death by suffocation from the lodg
ing of a piece of beafsteak in his wind
pipe. We also find that James Nickell
engineer of lomotive No. 373 was careless
in performance of his dnty in not ringing
bell required bylaw. t
. We also recommend that in all cases
'of accident or suddea death that the
matter of be reported to the coroner im
mediately. .-.
