The War Correspondent and the Cubs
When Baron Binder von Kreigelstein (correspondent of the " Kreuz Zeitung ") with the Russian forces in Manchuria had time hanging heavy, he went bear-hunting, and had not long to wait for the excitement he sought. He shot a male bear, and was attacked by its mate, which he also dispatched after a struggle. The bear's lair he discovered close by, and took therefrom two cubs hardly three weeks old. To these cubs the war correspondent has been a "foster mother " ever since, the picture showing them both climbing up his legs·and body after a couple of feeding bottles, the contents of which they evidently relish. Many humorous antics are performed by these cubs during the entire duration of the picture.
