A present of a rather unusual nature
was made by Mr. Nate Coombs of
Council to Joe Sheldon of the Alaska
Bank on the occasion of the former’s
visit to the city some days ago. It Is
stated that the present was nothing
less than a live badger which was
caught over in Council recently after
the beast had displayed some or ns
traditional ferocity by killing a couple
• f dojg-s belonging to an Eskimo. The
animal was finally rounded up and
captured and was secured by Coombs
As Is doubtless well known the badger
is somewhat rare In this section and
aside from one or two Isolated in
stances have never been seen In this
part of Seward peninsula. Sheldon
j say8 that he would try to tame his pet
I but is afraid that the task will be a
I trying one, a view doubtless well tak
I en, considering the generality savage
j nature of the animals.
