Wainwright, half ■*..>• befween Nome
and Poin Harrow, t ii learned that
a lot of Polar It ars are in that vici
nity this winter A. native going
down the coast ran across 17 bea^s
feeding on the carcass of a walrus
The native shot eight of the bears
aud theu beat it as his cartridges
played out. He intended to come
back the uext. day and skin the bears
jand haul away the meat, but during
the remaining hours the bear 3
which were not shot had eaten up
the dead ones wh.-n he returned.
Another native coming down
from Barrow shot six bears in
one bunch and got the pelts and
meat of all of them. They seem
to go in bunch as this year aud
nre very hungry. The stomach's
of the bears seem to be entirely
emipity. therefore the native deem
j ad it wise not to go out hunting
due to the fact that he weighs
250 pounds and would make good
| pickings for the bears if they g >t
• him We have had a fine winter
j here and look for an early sprint.
| KS IN WHITK PARKAS
TAKEN FOR SWANS
Captain Shriner. the genial
hoar of the Cape Nome roadhouse,
according to a report thought he
saw a couple of swang n^ar Cape
Nome thia past week. He got out
his gun and was ready for them.
When they came nearer and in
■shooting distance, he saw they were
(two m ushers. His binooular*
showed they wore bran splinters
of new white parkas. He thought
■then they were agents for the Ku
Klux Klan. When they came up
to the roadhouse, they were found
to'-be Miss Elesa Simraonson and
Mrs. W. F. Baldwin, who had
broken the trail all the way from
Nome. 14 miles distant. It was
plainly visible that “Shanks Mare”
was pretty tired and hungry, and
what they did to the repast placed
before them, would be telling. The
trail is now reported to be in
fine shape for the race, and it is
to be hoped that the Kennel Club
w'ill run one of their short races
to Cape Nome roadhouse during
the winter, as every convenience
awaits the musher at this mosl
hospitable resort.
