They took a formidable array of rlam guna with them, both repeal ing and alnglo ihot weapon*, to be fired from the ahouldor And the hip. They were greatly excited orer the proapeet of the chaao for the frialiy little creature* and were ronfldent of HUCCOM. Aa la well known, clama In Alaaka come oBt at low tide to gambol and play on the beaches In the moon light. On dark nlghta they come out. all right, but they jre wary, aa they liavo eyea like owla and ran aee bet ter In the dark than any other time. Hunday night waa an exceedingly dark one and the throe rlam huntera had their work rut out for them. They crawled long tile hcaclica and "ancakcd" up on l heir prey, but when they got within chootlng dla tanre they found that they had ! brought anlpc ahflla for their rlam guna and tho latter would not work. They thon attempted to crawl up t loae enough to knock the feUnya orer with tho butt-en.)i of their guna. but the clama were too apeedy for them and would go skipping over the sand and dire out Into deep wMer before the huntera could get a good rwlpe at them. Itert did get clone 'Hough to a big home clam to hit him once, but Mr. Horae Clam kicked lilm on tho ah!na Juat aa he waa about to cut hla throat and bleed him properly. Bert dropped hi* hold and the clam eacaped. 80 the huntera wero forced- to re lurn honi" empty handed and In stead of peddling clama to their friend* they had to peddle a lot of l>ull and a hard luck atory.

Krlc Berg waa to take the Alaaka for the Wentwrrd. having made rea ?Tvationa on that boat, but on ac ? ount of the hunting trip did not ko. However, he aaya the trip waa worth the aarrlflce, 1* he gained a lot of experience. All the men are positive that the Vlaakan clam In hla wild atate la| the wariest animal that Uvea In the, territory and that huntera before go- 1 i tig out to get him ahould go well liecled and bo aure of their ammuni (Ion.
