A Story of Two Bears. A' STORY OF TWO BEARS. Away up in the Arctic northlands, In the lands of the Alaska, Where the wind is blowing fiercely, Blowing cold and even colder, • Where the snow is drifting always, And the clouds above are leaden. Here a bear lived named Kolondyke, Named so for the fields above him, For the yellow Klondylce gold fields White this bear was as the snow drifts, Brave was he in times of danger, Ag he hunted on the ice-fields On the cold and frozen ice-fields. He, in childhood, frisked and gamboled, Near the frozen winding river, On the bleak banks of the Yukon, With his bear-cub friends and walrus With the seals and little reindeer. So Kolondyke quite contented, Thus surrounded by his play mates Grew into a noble bearhood Bashful as the stars of morning, When the sun's rays shine upon them, Gentle as a little walrus, Without wicked thoughts of vengeance Soon he wooed and won a maiden, From the region of the North Pole, Snowy white was she and handsome, With her coat so soft and shaggy, With her eyes so bright and piercing. Chi Moot was the came he gave her, For the pass as they came through it, On their homeward wedding-journey, From the region of the. North Pole, To the Yellow Klondyke
