ARIZONAN KILLED 124 BEARS
One Trophy Is Skiu of Huge Silver
tip Shot at Distance of 2 Feet
El Paso, Tex., April 16. J. H. T.
Cosper, one of the best known cattle
men of Arizona, is also known far and
wide in that State as a bear hunter. He
has never made a real bear hunt, he
says, but that on all his trips over the
ranges he has carried a gun and in the
past 30 years he has accounted for 121
bears.
Mr. Cosper settled along the Blue
River in what is now Ureculec County,
Ariz., in ISSS, and engaged in the cat
tle business. At the time, Oeronimo was
making his raids along the Blue River
and conditions were*far from peaceful
for the young cattleman.
Kven yet the district along ih,> lllue
and White rivers and the White Mouu
tains is but sparsely settled, the chief
inhabitants, as Mr. Cosper puts it. be
ing roving bands of cattle. There iij
plenty of game, an A besides bear, he
lias killed numerous mountain lions or
cougars and hundreds of wild turkey-.
Describing a bear rug in his home
Mr. Cosper savs that it is the hide of a
huge silver! Ip and measures eight by
nine feet, lie killed this bear by shoot
ing it in the mouth at a distance of
about two feet, the big animal having
crept upon him. It weighed 800
pounds.
"1 have raised six boys on the Bluo
and the oldei boys have killed their
sliaie of bears,'' said Mr, Cosper. M Wo
have never had a doctor's hill to pay.
We did hav e one preache? iu our pitrf
of the country, but lie went crazy. Then
we had one doctor, but he starved to
death. Clifton is my nearest town and
it is sixty miles south of us and that
-over trails. There are uo roads worthy
