BUR CUBS PROVIDE
PEENH THRILLS FOR
KODIIK Fain
(By Special Correspondent)
Two Kodiak bear cubs were this
week captured on Kodiak Island
and taken to Kodiak for shipment
to the States.
The circumstances under which
they were caught are both unusual
and interesting in that Emanuel
Davis of Quzinkie who captured
them did so alone and unarmed.
Mr. Davis, who earns a living as
a fisherman in the summer and
trapper in the winter, saw the two
cubs playing in the woods a short
distance from his fishing camp,
and started after * hem. Having
no gun with him and none in the
camp, he decided to take a chance
on the mother bear showing up,
but fortunately she did not. After
a short chase the two cubs went
up a cottonwood tree, for as woods
men know, brown bear will not
climb trees, whereas the cubs will,
if threatened by danger.
The first attempt Davis made to
.get them down from their fighting
perch proved unsuccessful, as the
cubs in spite of their small size
proved to be very good fighters
and able to take care of them
selves. In the second attempt he
took some twine up with him and
tied their hind legs to the limbj
they stood on.- Thus he managed j
to get one down and safely stored j
away, but when it came to tackling1
the net it proved to be something j
else than a one man job, so after j
several hours of battling he tied:
the cub securely and went to the
nearest fishing camp for assist
ance, and with the help of four;
men he finally made the other cub
a captive also.
For 7 days he kept the two cubs
in his tent, expecting to see the ‘
mother bear come tearing in any'
time.. His feelings during that j
! period can better be imagined;
| than described, as in case this had
| happened, Davis fully well realized;
i what would take place, as he was
i unarmed.
1 The cubs, a male and a female
were approximately four months,
old, and fine looking specimens.
They are to be shipped to Chi
cago where they will be exhibited
at the World’s fair.
The venture proved a profitable
one for Davis, a man with a large
family, and the extra dollars the
cubs brought is a blessing in times
like these.
Kite flying from the decks of
steamers promises to become a rec
reational feature of Pacific coast
wise trips.

WASHINGTON, June 21. — In
dustrial heads are favorable to the
pleas for wage boosts as a part
of the national recovery plan.
Machinery for putting the Act in
to effect was being perfected as
hurriedly as possible.
A Senate committee has decided
to make a thorough inquiry into
the New York Stock Exchange, In
vestment trusts, and holding com
panies.
A report from the Seward Gen
eral hospital today says that much
hope is held that the eyesight of
A1 Johnson and Clifford Bothel,
members of the Westdahl Survey
crew, will not be impaired as a re
sult of the explosion of a lime bar
rel aboard that ship.
