The Great Strength of Bears
"Yes, the strength of grizzly bears Is al
most beyond belief. I have read about the
powerful muscles lr> the arms of African
gorillas, but none compare with those In
the arms and shoulders of big grizzly bears.
I have seen a grizzly bear with one forepaw
shot Into uselessness pull Its own 1100
pounds of meat and bone up precipices and
perform feats of muscle that trained ath
llete* could aot de. navei Mem grizzly
bears carrying the carcasses of pigs that
must have weighed seventy pounds sevrral
miles across a mountain side' to their lair,
and I have heard hunters tell of having
cows knocked down as if by a thunderbolt
with one blow from the forepaw of a bear,
"Three summers ago I Fpent the season in
the coast mountains up in Monterey county,
and one moonlight night 1 saw a grizzly
bear in the act of carrying a dead cow homo
to her cub. I had a position on the moun
tainn side where I could see every move
ment of the bear in V.\e sparsely timbered
valley below me. Thi critter carried the
dead cow In her forepuws for at least three
miles, across jagged, sharp rocks ten feet
high, over fallen logs, around thij rocky
mountain sides, where even a jackass could
not get a foothold, to a narrow trail up the
steep mountain. She never stopped to rest
a moment, but went right along. I follow
ed, and just about half a mile from tha
beast's lair I laid her low. The helfei"
weighed at least 200 pounds, and the bea»
about 450."—Chicago Inter Ocean.
A HEAVY HANDICAP
It Is but a Spanish custom.
It was not the youngster's fault
That he never had the training
Which would help him earn his salt.
And he couldn't raise a protest
When to christen him they came
And they solemnly afflicted
The poor Infant with the name
"Alfonso XIII, Leon Ferdinand Marl*
James Isidore Pascal Antonio."
And it's not at all surprising
That In business of state
And In military matters
All his people come too late
For it's likely to occasion
An embarrassing delay
When they rally up their cohort 3
And they stop to shout "Hooray
For Alfonso Xni Leon Ferdinand Marl*
James Isidore Pascal Antonio."
