BACK FROM A LAS K AN TRIP. , Mebane Family Knjoy Thrills in the Far North.?Big Game. i Great "Falls, Nov. 19.?.Mr. and j Mrs. R. S. Mebane and son Robert S. Mebane, Jr., have returned from a very extended trip of approximately five months to Alaska and the Yukon territory. They were in the greatest big game section of the world, and traveled over 1,600 miles 011 horseback. All of their supplies were tak en with them by pack horses. Their party consisted of the outfitter cook, horse wrangler and four Eskimo and Indian guides. It required 26 horses for the outfit. They brought out about a ton of big game heads and hides, and secured some of the best trophies ever obtained in any part of the world. They killed five grizzly bears, one of them weighing about 1,200 pounds. They killed1 six moose one of them being the second largest head ever obtained; 11 caribou, all very fine trophies; eight mountain sheep, one of which approximated the world's record; three mountain goats, six wolves and many other trophies. Mr.. Mebape reports that the country through which he traveled was the most beautiful he had ever visited, the lakes, mountains, glaciers and ^waterfalls being even superior to Switzerland. The country is so vast that very few people realize-how large it is. Mr. Mebane and- party were constantly from 6,000 to 12,000 feet altitude. On the 26th of August, they were near the head of the Donjak river, which rises near Mount Nazahat. one of the highest mountains in the United States. The Generc river originates in the Generc glacier# and they were encamped on the edge of this glacier. On that day it began to snow and a violent snow storm continued for three days, leaving three feet of snow. This gives some idea of the difference in climate in South Carolina and Alaska in August. They were constantly in snow from that time until they came out on the 13th of October. For two and' a half months they never heard any news from the outside world, nor did they see a single person except the members of their party, and they visited a portion of the Alaskan region which had never been visited by any one before, with the possible exception of a few Indians or Eskimos. Mrs. Mebane is claimed by the na-? * - * 1 J J 1 U ?_ ^ f lives to nom iue wunu s recuru uj. being the first woman to kill a grizzly bear in that section, as Mrs. Mebane had this success. The bear she killed was a very large one. being one of the largest grizzly bears that had been killed in that section for several years. Mrs. Mebane is quite a fine shot and a lover of hunting. Mr. Mebane is very enthusiastic over the natural beauties of Alaska and Yukon territory, and says it i? the greatest country of the kind in the world. After having traveled over 15,000 miles, they have returned safe and' sound, and their friends are giving them a glad welcome home. SORRIER READ BROUGHT HOME.
