A Fishy How the Caretaker of Lumber Camp Used a Novel Trap for Catching Bear Saulte Ste.,lelarie, Ont—Mose Davis, a 70 -year-old caretaker of a caaup for the Searohntont Lumber Company, be- lieves that when trapping bear,. if the bear will not come to the trap, then take the trap to the bear. Mose keeps his meat in a lean-to adjoining his bunkhouse, and of late has been bothered by a bear which sought the bacon. In desperation he fas1,ioned a crude • trap of a good, sound barrel, into which he drove long spikes so that when the 'bear forced its head inside, the spikes would catch in its head and hold it. Hearing a commotion in the early hours of the morning, Mose visited his trap near the meat house and found a big bear at grips with his dog. As the two were . engaged in combat, Mose ap- proaclied with the barrel, and jammed it over the animal's head, where it stuck. e. He says he heard more bear langu- age lit a minute than he had ever heard before in his life. The dog wor- ried the bear down to the shore of the Goulais River, -where it took to the water, still wearing the barrel; The current took' the animal, thus handicapped, down stream and it fili- ally went over a dans and was beaten to death on the rocks below. This is the story as it appeared in recent mese dispatches. What we would like to know is just how Mose got that barrel over the bear's head and what kind of a barrel it wase -- Editor. • "Suppose, Bessie" (the teacher was trying to explain the meaning of re- ctiperate), "suppose your .papa has worked very hard all clay; he is tired and worn out, isn't he?"
