Tha fact that the thieves were familiar with the Interior of the building shows that they had cither visited it In person , or bnd been supplied with a diagram by parties living lure.

Hoth joung men are well connected nnd have been emplocd by the Hammond Packing company for some time. The fact that they wcro strangcis In the block and were paillally dressed vhen the pollco entered their room cajsed suspicion In the minds of the offlccro , which was not removed until a thorough Investigation had been mule. Chief Hrcnnan Is of the opinion now that the thieves escaped from the building by the rear stairway before Captain McDonough and Olllccr Mulcnhy arrived there and that the persons whom the officers saw on the steps wcio lodgers , who had been called out by the bbots.

"Tho thirty } ears I have been bunting and trapping , " says Henry Klllson , the veteran hunter , to the Globe-Democrat , "havo taught mo that the grlz'.ly bear Is , next to nn Arizona Apache Indian , the ugliest , crass est and most unreliable critter that a huntei or pros ] > cctor has to deal with. "When I came out to California In 1SCG there were hundreds of grizzlies In the led wooi'rt ' along the Ru&slan nnd Amerlc.n livers. That reminds mo of a funny experi ence of mine. I vvns green and freah then , oven if I had been In the war. Ono morning I was out alone for deer in the Lake county focthllta when I saw n v hopping big grizzly way up on the sldo of a mountain. I went right after It without realizing the risk. I crept cautlouily up the mountain , keeping out of sight of the bear as much as possible I got within 100 jarils of him , and , taking cat of ul aim , Just at the hack of the shoulder , I let drive. The boir fell nt the crack of the gun , but was on his feet ngaln In nn Instnnt and came tearing down the mountain In a bee line for where I stood. M } rifle was a muzzle loader an 11 had no time to reload I was not half so anxious to kill the bear as I vvas to save my own bacon. A tree stood below me , and , without btspplng to measure Us size or to consider what sort of a place of refuge it was , I sprang to it and went up like a coon chased by a pack of hounds I had reached the branches , about ten feet from the ground , and had not jet thought of looking down , when I heard the bear scratching nt the foot of the trco and Imagined ho was coming after me. "Well , he didn't come , and when I bnd climbed about as high ns I could get I straddled a limb to await developments The grizzly Htood on his hind legs scratch ing and growling and snarling , whllo my heart was right between my teeth , I must confess. "After an hour , when the bear calmed down. I felt easier. I thought the bear would soon get tired of keeping watch nnd would get up and go away. Ho did nothing of the kind , however , and hour after hour I sat thcro In that trco watching the bear. I Imagined I saw him move occasionally Hut ho lay still , and finally I began to break branches and throw them down at him , nnd jelled nt him until I was hoarse 'I hero ho lay , and ho t > ccmed determined to remain thcro until ho starved mo out. My situation began to grow dcopciato Night vvns coming and already I was no litlff from my position that r could scarcely move Something must bo done , and It had to bo done mighty quick. "My rlllo lay on tbo upper side and the bear was below the tree I climbed down to the lower branches , and , breaking elf a few smaller llmbti I throw them down on the bear. Ho did not move Ho was asleep , I thought , and now was my time Carefully and still ns death"I slid down the tieo until I was within six feet of the ground , when I apcnng on the upper sldo , grabbed my gun nnd ran Ilko a scared coyote - oto to Boino rocks about fifty > ards away. "When safe'ly behind the rocks I peeped out The bear hud not moved. Then I loaded my gun , and , drawing a careful bead , with a dead rcat over a rock. I shot thu brute nquaro between the eyes. Still bo did not move. Again I loaded my rlllo , cocked It and walked cautiously toward the boar. When close enough I picked up n Btoiio and struck him with It. Ho did not seem to mind It ; then I mustered up courage - ago enough to go near enough to poke him with my gun Ho was as stiff as n poker and had hern dead for hours I had been In the trco all day treed by u dead bear.
