nam ing the Mlb in a wild state. Ha
had caused much trouble to ranchers
in that vicinity and terrorised eevsral
of the inhabitants by chasing them in
past years. The boys started out last
Thursday with their four dogs to en­
deavor to pot an and to the depreda­
tions of the animal, with the result
that the dogs soon picked up his thail
and cornered him in the march and a
bottle royal ensued. The bear gashed
one of the doge severely in the early
part of the battle and it was then
that they conceived the idea of r«p-
taring Urn alive. Ropes ware se­
cured and after many failures a rope
was gotten around hie jaws and he
was soon securely "hog-tied.” A
home and sled were taken to the place
and the animal was brought to the
ranch houee wham his tusks were ex­
tracted and he was turned loose in a
secure stockade.
At the time of the capture the boor
weighed in the neighborhood of four
hundred pounds but was very thin.
Those who have seed him say he win
reach the six hundred mark when in
prime condition. At the prevailing
price of pork this capture will net the
boys a tidy sum as a result of their
strenuous sport.
