Alaska, our Arctic colon', way oil" in
the northwestern part of our continent,
lias a coast-line eipial lo that of all the
United States on the Atlantic and Pa
ri lie Oceans and Gull of Mexico put to
gether. All along the northern coast
and much of Ilchring's Sea Hie ice hugs
theVshorcs, and here the polar tear is
fotuKl, never extending his excursions
very ir from land upon tho wandering
pack-si of ice, and still less inland.
Kcarli all the rest of Alaska is popu
lated flith the brown and black bears
In varying quantities, aud of the brown
species I intend to tell a story which I
hoard while traveling in that far-away
,Iand.
If you look in your Alaskan maps for
Sitka, the capital and largest town in
Alaska, you will see that it is on an
island, with many islands around it,
close lo the coast. Among the north
ern islands of this long group and tho
mainland, near by, is a large tribe of
lnd'aus called the Chilkats, a most war
like baud not very long ago. Their
country is very rugged and mountain-
ou. and back inland a little ways tne
li'gh mountains are covered with snow
and ice the whole year round, the cross
ing of which is attended wilh cousider
n ie danger. Through this glacier-clad
mountain range the Chilkat Indians
knew of two or three passes which led
them to a more level couutry beyond,
where another lrbe of Indians lived
that secure large numbers of valuable
furs. These warlike Chilkats, however,
never allowed the white men of the
coast to go inland through the few
mountain passes and trade for the tine
furs that the Indians there caught, nor
would they allow these same Indians to
ci me through the passes ami trade their
fur.- 10 the while men for such things
as they wanted, but buying trading
material from tho white" men on the
coast they put it in convenient sized
bundles, that they cr.nld easily carry
tn r such perilous paths as those of the
const range of mountains, and. gainiug
the nlaud couutry of their Indian negh-bor-,
traded this material for their furs,
nd putting these agaiu in bundles
cat ried thorn back to the white men. and
sold them to these people at good,
round prolits, considering the mere pit
tances at which thoy had been secured
from the Indians of the iuterior. Any
one. however, who has ever been over
the-e Alpine trads. as was the author a
few years ago, would think they had
fa rly earned their money by their hard
work in carrying the huge loads on their
backs over " them. Sometimes they
made two trips a year when energetic,
and from this source of trade for years
thev are the richest tribe of Indians that
I know.
Iu the heavily wooded country on
cither aide of the snow and ice-clad
mountain passes are found the black
and brown bear. For the former the
Indians have no tear; in fact, they are
very eager to meet it in order to secure
the glossv. jet-black robe it carr.es
around with it and the meat which they
et fi.r food; but for the big brown bear,
tw o or three times as large as his black
In-other, tl.ey have the greatest dread,
siad only hope he will keep out of their
-way when on their travels. The black
bear when he sees uietu coming -eoius
.bat dry able to get out of the way half
last enough, from the way he breaks
through the brush and scrambles ove
th logs; but the brown beasL if dis-
tnxbnd suddenly, makes t. ferocious

fcini to pieces if not quickly dispatched.

the "barren ground" bear," owing to
the groat number of times it is seen in
the large clearings caused by lire that
annually sweep away great" tracts of
forest land-.
It was not many years ago that a
small party of Chilkat Indians had left
their country at the head of Lynn

They had gotten oil' of the seve.or

they are forced to clamber in pitting

The .now being pas-ed, i
of them

the .signid smoke of th- Chilkat traders
to their TahMieesh patrons. ao that if
any of them were in the upper p.trt of
the valley, or within sight oi the ascend-

so was tenifit'iig, but the thought of de
stroving the only brdge on the route
was enotsgh to make them desist.
It -4fcaifcllly deckled that two or
three of them should go back a little
ways on the mounta.n ide and send up
a couple of di-tinct smokes, about ten
or lifleen minutes apart, which is the
signal u-ed anion r the.-e Indians to
show that they had gone into camp at
that point. It was thought that the
Taiikhec-h Indians, whom they were
trying to reach, seeing these signal
smoke-, might come up to them this
short d -tance, thinking they had on!
into camp after an unu-uallv
long
