A BRUTAL STEP MoTHER-A Little Girl Com
PEELED 10 Sleep an the WOodS.-A letter from Sala-
manca, New York, dated the 10th inst, says
that year or two since Pole named Peter
MOskey, widower, with daughter six or seven
years old was married to woman who has
ever since maintained a system of domestic
tyranny over both husband and child. On FRI
day last the girl was found In the woods about
mile west of the place near where her father
and stepmother live. She was nearly dead from
exposure and hunger, and said she had been
wandering for three days within sight of home,
but was not allowed to come in the house by her
stepmother. She gave as reason for this cruel
ty that in looking for their cow on the Tuesday
previous, she had lost little shawl, which she
was unable to lind. The loss being made known
TO her stepDOther, She beat the child until she
was black and blue in places and then com
PEELED her to 60 back to the woods and look Tor
the shawl The little girl searched in vain for
it, and, cold, hungry and almost exhausted, had
repeatedly returned home begging to be allowed
70 come and warm herself a moment, but was
as often forced to go away by her stey mot Their
The story of the child creates the most intense
indignation in the community, and the step
mother and the father were arrested. The
hearing in the case revealed a system of brutal
itv towards the child on the port of the inhuman
stepmother that has few parallels on record
The little girl, for trivial offences, has been
forced to sit in ice cold water for hour st the
time; tied up by the thumbs and whipped;
forced to lie in the woods all night with the
scantiest of clothing, in all kinds OF weather
obliged to perform labor that a man would con-
slider hard, and kept continually on the most
meagre fare. She is literally covered with
bruises and scars which she had received at the
hands of the worian chosen by her father to be
her mother.
Singularly, the only result of the investi CATION
thus far has been the taking of the child out of
the control Of its unnatural protectors and
placing her in family at CORY, Pa.

A LIVELY ENCOUNTER WITH BRARs.-A
hunter, of Garrett county, Maryland, named
Christian Bolyard, started in pursuit of the gang
Of bears which had been infesting the pine
swamps for some time past, and on Friday his
dog "winded" them, when proceeding cautiously
he espied three Of them lying in one nest, appa-
rently asleep. Taking deliberate aim he fred
into their midst, killing one and wounding q
second. The dog rushing upon them, drove the
third up tree, and then attacked the wounded
bear which proved more than match tor him
Being very large female, she seemed inspired
with the instructive idea that the dog was not
the chief cause of her trouble, so she gave him
hug, slapped him out of her reach, and then
started in pursuit of Mr.. Bolyard. In the mean
time Mr.. Bolyard had succeeded in reloading
his gun, and as the bear approached he fired
hastily, slightly wouDding her a second time
This second shot seemed only to enrage her the
more, but did not check her pursuit, which was
now a race for life. Mr.. Bolyard well knew
that if he took refuge in a tree that her bear
ship would prove more than match for him in
the climbing business, SO the only hope left for
his life was to run for it, and although very
fleet of foot, his speed and "bOttom. would not
have saved him bad he not, with most wonder
full dexterity, succeeded in reoading his rifle as
he ran. By this time the bear was within a fe "
feet of him. Wheeling around suddenly he fired
third shot, which proved fatal. When the
last shot was fired the bear was 30 near the muz-
zle of the gun that the flash singed the hair on
her face. Mr.. Bolyard then returned and shot
the bear which the dog had freed, making in ali,
three of those animals killed single handed in
one day-''and it wasn't very good day for
bears either."-Gdrreh County Nd. )Herdld.
