HUNTING A BIGSILVEHTIP
HOW THE MONARCH OP THUNDER
CREEK WAS KII LED.
A Bear Which Required an Unusual
Amount of Powder and Lead to
Finish Him—Shooting at Close R area
An Exciting Moment
From the Few York Timet.
Sam and I bad been loitering along the
summit of tbe main cascade range hunting
white grouse and the extentiou of a silver
lead that 1 desired to locate. Below us and
stretching to the northeast and southwest
tbe great glacier of Thunder creek glistened
in the strong sunlight. We tad been
fairly successful in killing grouse, and not
at all successful in finding the extension of
the Little Ruby silver lead.
The glare of the glacier began to hurt my
eyes, and I eaid: “We have all the birds we
need, iSam. Lot’s cross the glacier and
climb down into Thunder Creek valley and
make our camp. YVe can fish for trout,
and I know where a huckleberry patch of
remarkable productiveness stands. YVe will
camp there and resume the search for the
lead to-morrow.”
“All right,” said Sam.
We olimbed slowly down an ice rift to
the bare, granite flanks of the mighty
range and then more rapidly Into tne
trough-like valley. Arrived at the deep,
swirling trout hole, close by the huckle
berry patch, we threw on blankets on the
ground and cut a rod preparatory to trout
flshiug, and Sam disappeared toward tbe
huckleberry bushes. Our shotguns stood
against a tree. I sat on a I owlder and
whipped the bubbling water. Trout rose
and were hooked, but they were sluggish,
end the fish'.Dg was slow and uninteresting.
1 had caught six half-pound trout, suffi
cient, with the white grouse wo bad in our
bags, to furnish supper and breakfast, and 1
was unwinding my Hue from the willow rod
when X heard Sam calling loudly: “Father,
come here.” I looked and saw him crouched
behind a large boulder. He beckoned me
with waving hand and motioned me to
silence. Cautiously I walked to him.
Arrived there I saw that the youth
was excited. His eyes blazed as
ecals of fire and he was pale. “I
ran right onto the largest bear i ever saw
while picking huekle >errias,” t?ara whis
pered, and he added: “He stood un right
before me and grunted like a pig. His fore
paws hung down and his head was slightly
cocked. I was frightened and ran back. The
bear, I believe, ran in the other direction,
but he may yet be iu the berry patch. Let’s
look.”
So we cautiously looked around the wa
ter-worn edges of the boulder. Yes, there
was a monstrous bear that was pleasantly
ocoupied iu eating berries —w ion he
stripped off the bushes with bis long, white
teeth—a monster silver tip. He was about
sixty yards from us. After looking at him
for a few minutes we shouted loudly. The
bearstoodup on bis bind legs, looked at us
through small pig like eyes, dropped to all
fours, aud slowly rau away. I could see
his silvered back rise and fall above the
berry bushes as he ran. I said: “Sam,
that is the largest bear I ever saw, and I
have seen scores of them. Wo will kill that
monster one of these days. Next lime we
go prospecting we wiil lake our ritiea
instead of shotguns and we will bag that
brute.”
“YVe will,” Sam said, decisively.
The search for the mine was resumed the
following day, and was unsuccessful. Y\ T e
rolled our blankets and smarted across the
rauge to North Bridge creek, where some
friends of ours, who had been grub-stuked
by confiding tenderfeet, were camped.
YVe said nothing about our bear to these
sportsmen, who pretended to prospect, but
who really fished and shot deer and grouse
through the delightful autumn days.
Sam and I returned to our main camp on
the Stehekin river, and we, at short Inter
vals, talked of our bear aud laid plans to
kill him. One day the spirit of unrest seized
us, and we determined to go trout fisuing
up Bridge creek. YVe rolled two pairs of
blankets around a bit of bacon, took our
rods and fly hooks, and started on font for
tho mouih of North Bridge creek. YVe had
or, 886.1 the main stream and were walking
close together on the trail, talkiug merrily
of the sport we expected to have at the pool
below the first waterfall, when Sam, who
was in the lead, halted, and, with out
stretched arm, pointed toward a ciump of
elderberry bushes and said loudly: "There
is our bear, and we have nothing but our
rods with us.”
I looked in the indicated direction and
saw tbe silvered monster eating elderberries
with appare t enjoyment. It was the bear
from Thunder creek. He had crossed the
range into our territory. YVe snouted at
him. He sat up, and after a rather long in
spect ion of us he dropped on all fours and
walked slowly and hesitatingly up the
mountain side, stooping nt short intervals
to eat tempting branches of berries and to
look sullenly at us.
“The next time we meet that bear. Sam,"
said i, earnestly, “we are going to bave
trouble, lie is not afraid of us. He is
almost determined to give battle fur the
possession of the elderberries.”
“YVe will kill him the next time we meet
him,” Bam said, re icluteiy, and he stio i ted
defiance at the aniu ai, teat, stopped and
looked back over his shouider as the boy’s
voice struck ins ears.
The next day we returned to our main
camp, from which I w&s called to the i ,ad
waters of Ruby cr-ek o va-s j dg isu . o •

me fully for two e eeks. On myreturn to

The next morning: wo packed a load of
food and blanks.son a tough, sure-footed
pony and led him up the trail toward Maple
creak. We (saw no sign of the ear. We
crossed the range via Staple pass and J
seended into Thunder Creeit valley. No
bear sign. For two day* we • antlered to
and fro across the lofty range. Still no
bear of sine. We siw several black bears
and one large einnarnon.bear, ut could .05
find our silver-tip. The third nigh, we
camped on u flat, on Thunder.crock tdgta up
in the valley end In a basin rimmed by
grauite walla that were glaoier-capped.
That night I heard our pony snort loudly
and then heart him gallop oyer the range
toward Bri Ige creek. The tie.t morn
ing we rolled our blankets and shnul
de ed the packs and started after the
horse. We crossed to the bead of main
arriving there about 3 o’clock
in the morning. We were hungry and irri
table and In alighting mood. “Curse the
horses! Curse the silver tip!” -aid 8a. li,
hotly, as lie throw his heavy pack on the
Kri and close to a pool in the creek. “Let’s
eetoh some trout, and shoo’ a brace of blue
Ri ouse, and have a feast. I am tired of
bacon and dough, and of lurrying that
pack,” and he kicked the rolled blankets to
emphasize bis words.
"My son," I replied, "your head is level.
" e will camp hero till snow flies. VVe will
fob and kill grouse, and the bear can go to
his satanic majesty."
So we camped. At the upper end of tbs
Pool, distant ISO yards from the camp, the
K r uund sloped upward to tbs summit of a
large fiat-topped bowlder. There was a
deep basin of small area, a pot hole iu the
granite rock, end in it was water. Sam
ar.d I sat side by side, with legs hang ng
over the edge of the bowlder, and fished for
trout, using willow rods and Seth Green
flies. The fish rose keenly, qud as we
caught them we dropped them into tbe pot
hole behind us. Our rifles lay on the bowl
der directly behind us. Sam had hooked
a beautiful red-flnned trout and was play
ing him artfully, and was watching tbe
trout circle with a soore of other trout
swimming after wtia t we heard a rook
crash down the hill behind our camp. Tbe
trout was jerked out of the water instantly,
and we turned to see what caused the bowl
der to roll down hiih
I saw Sam drop hierod and grasp his rifle.
It rose o bis sboaldsr and bis eye dropped
close to the barrel, and he said: “There is
that cursed bear, close to the camp. Now
for fun.” Bang! bang! bang! cracked tbe
YY inchester as rapidly as the lever could be
worked and the trigger pulled. X saw the
bear snap at his side well back, seep again
•till further back, add I exclaimed hotly:
“You are shooting too far back, Sain.
Shoot at his fore shoulder or his neck.” Too
late. The stricken bear saw us; he hesi
tated for an instant, then charged directly at
us. He had to cross 150 yards of open but de
scending ground. I fired at his head and
saw a tuft of hair on hu left flank fly. The
animal hit at the wound as he ran. I held
ahead of him and tired again, and saw
another tuft of hair fly from the right side
of his neck. Then I loaded and waited.
Ham continued to pump cartridges into bis
rifle and to fire ballets at and into tho bear.
The youth’s eyes blazed as blue steel, his
jaw was set, aud his face rigid. He did not
look at me. I counted his shots—seVen,
eigut, nine, ten—and the bear was close at
hand,
“Stand up, Sam,” I said —we had been
kneeling on the rock—“and if I miss him as
he mounts the slope, take to the pool.”
“I will be damned if I take to the water,”
Sain replied, and his voice was the voice of
a stranger. YVe rose up and waited. Sam
firing the while. “Keep a cartridge in the
gun, Sam,” 1 said severely. He nodded. I
threw the short, heavy Remington carbine
to iny shoulder, caught the sights, aud cov
ered the bear, not over thirty yards distant.
I saw blood flowing from half a score
of wouuds, and saw that he swayed a little
asberan. He was a most formidable ap
pearing beast and had sufficient life to siil
us If he reached us. I saw Sam out of ihe
tail of my left eye standing motionless, rlfla
to bis shoulder and bead bent over rifle
st ck, and sang cut to bint: “Don’t fire I”
aud then waited for an instant.
The bear was not more than twenty yards
from us, coming head on, and not offering
the shot X desired. “Shoot, Sam!” I ex
claimed. Craok! sounded the YViacbester.
The bear staggered, turned to
the right bv tbe foroe of the ball that
struck hitn on tbe lower jaw, shuttering it
to bits, and his head was exposed Bang I
sounded the Remington, and a 50-caliber
ball crashed into the side of the bear’s head
directly baok of his right ear, aud he fell
dead.
“My gun is empty,” Sam said as our eyes
met, and he added, “Delightful excite
ment!" and then he wslked to the bear and
danced a war dance on him aud whooped as
a Sioux.
“That was a close shave, my sou," I said
as I walked to the dead bear, and I addod:
"1 have killed many bears. This Is the first
that showed fight. Lot’s count the hits.”
YVe counted eleven wounds on the right
side, not one especially fatal. Then with
great effort we roiled the bear over, and his
left flank was a furrow that had been
plowed by a Remington ball. Twelve shots
out of nineteen had struck the game sliver
tip. This animal, us he lay stretched on tbe
ground, was over 7 feet long, and be ap
peared to be as heavy as a large ox. His
skin was worthless, being in poor fur. YVe
executed a few mrry and fautascio dance
steps around hi3 body and whooped a little,
and then cooked breakfast and ate it.
YVe smoked, and killed the bear over and
over again while smoking, a id rolled our
blankets tighter and shouldered them light
heartedly preparatory to walking sixteen
miles over mountain trails to our main
camp. Arrived there we told the story of
the killing of the Thunder Creek silver
tip to minors from that creak, and they
rejoiced over his death. Our prospector
said that this bear hud treed him for
sport one pleasant afternoon, and had kept
him perohed on a llinb for two hours. That
night Ham nestled close to me just as be
was dropping asleep and murmured:
“Heavenlv sport, was it not, father?” aud X
agreed with him.
AN ENGINEER'S BTORY.

a table in a pleasant and secluded Bt. Paul re

their peculiar experiences when in oharge of the

weird and ghostly, and occasionally a bright
little episode crept Into the conversation. Fi

years or more, removed his unlighted cigar
tump front his mouth and related a story that

A RUSSIAN HERO.
Deed* of Daring for Which Bkrlldr.E
Haa Been Honored.
From the London Figaro.
It is scarcely kuowu eveu iu Baris that it
vas Commoder Skridloff, who was selected
to accompany Admiral Gervsis at tbe time
of the reoeptiou at Crooatadt, aud conse
quently the high honor which Emperor Al
exander paid to his French hosts by this
selection remained almost a secret. Nicho
las Hariouovitch Skridloff, now 48 years
old, is on the point of becoming rear ad
miral. His past history is glorious. He
wears upon his breast tbe cross of tit. George,
the highest order that cau be conferred iu
Russia for au act of daring bravery which
sigualizeil his debut m the war of 1877
between Russia and Turkey.
The Russian array was preparing to cross
the Danube ou pontoons when two Turkish
monitors appeared. Young Lieut. Skridloff
was selected to oppose the advance of the
Turkish vessels with six sailors and his
friend, the paiuter Verestulisgiu, who insist
ed upon goiug with him. tikrldioff boarded
tbe pleasure yacht of the late Emperor aud
prepared to put torpedoes under the moni
tors. “Let us take a glass . f sherry,” said
he to Verestchagin when the yaoht moved
out; “it will doubtless be our last.”
The Turks were astonished at the
approach of the little oraft aud sent a perfect
shower of shot at it; but leaiqft to be
blown to pieces, they quickly steftmod
back, leaving the Russians to cross tbe
river unmolested. The tichutka. having
accomplished her mission, brought back
Lieut. Skridloff with four serious wounds.
He was the lirst man wounded in the cam
paign. Tho act of bravery won for the
young man rapid promotion.
Iu 1887 he was captain of tho Strelock, a
warship of 1,500 tons. He was cruising ia
the Atlantic during the Afghanistan diffi
culty. It will be remembered that tbe
iiussian Gen. Komaroff fortified the strategic
line of the river Kmusebka, thus
threatening the English in India. A war
rumor passed over Europe. I'heEuglish
government instructed its ambassador at
tit X’etersburg to obtain from tne czar a
refusal to sauctiou the action of Komaroff,
u der a penalty of a rupture of ail amicable
negotiations. Alexander 111. was not
intimidated, and his bold reply was that
Komaroff had acted under his orders.
Everybody expected a declaration of war.
Charged with a secret mission for tne
United States, Skridloff was followed by
an English vessel cf a tonnage double the
size of that ol hu cruiser and the big Brit
isher was commanded by Capt. Hand.
VVhen anchored in the harbor at Newport
Skridloff resolved to escace from the En
glishman, and this was tne way be managed
it: It was Saturday, and a perlorruance
was to take place at the theater in the even
ing. In the afternoon Skridloff ordered
aii tbe linen of the sailors to be bung out on
the yardarm, as is the custom ou wasbda; s.
He himself went ashore and proceeded to
the theater, accompanied by a number cf
bis officers.
At the close of the performance he Invited
the actresses and Capt. Hand to supper.
The Iu vita lion was accepted. Toward
midnight, leaving his cap and [ arade eater
iu view, he made an excuse for a tempor
ary absence from the dining room, but
didn’t con e back. He quickly boarded hi*
Vessel, weighed anchor and escaped, aud
Capt. Hand wsu afterward cour.-martialed.
During the same crime the Strelock put
into San Domingo, where ( apt. Skridloff
sent two officers asnore to get news from
the O'ntinent. The Haytiaus arrested the
Russian officers.
After several hours of waiting the Captain
went ashore himself and demanded the
immediate release of lus officers, as well as
a written apology duly signed, otherwise
he would have tbe place bom arded at ouoe.
In order to make no mistake about the
thing, he had given orders to his second
officer to open fire at a signal from his
hand. The uaytians yielded, and Skridloff
recorded the document in which these laots
were related at the Euglisb consulate.
