Anaheim Gazette: A reverend
gentleman, who managed to get
credit to considerable amount at
one of the principal stores in Ana
helm, and afterwards hied him to
Arizona without liquidating his
Indebtedness, now writes to his
victims and objects to their taking
out judgment against him by
process of law, on the ground that
their claim is outlawed! His Sec
ondary occupation as bullwhacker
has probably calloused his con-
science and deadened the honest
instincts which the profane are
wont to believe exist in the breast
of every member of the clerical
profession.
A fine, large grizzly bear was
killed up in the Santiago Cation a
few nights ago. The varmint had
been annoying the bee keepers
quite seriously of late by his dep
relations. He was an incorrieible
honey thief, upon whom neither
moral suasion nor stryciinine
seemed to have any effect. Ac-
cordingly Messrs. Dericott and
Taylor (the latter brother of Mr..
Taylor of the Grange store) en-
scOnsed themselves in tree for
several nights with murderous in
tent and double -barrelled shot
guns. Bruln, however. failed to
appear, and Mr.. Thistlewaite re-
lieyed the gentleman named. On
the first night of his vigil the bear
came ambling to within twenty
feet of the tree in which his human
foe was perched. The story goes
that the first ball from Mr.. Thistle
waite's rifle gave Bruin his quiz
etus, and that the eight subse-
quent shots which he fired failed to
Craze the dead monster. This part
of the story, however, may be a
base fabrication, emanating from
the envious minds of the unsuc-
cessful hunters. Mr.. Thistlewaite
has the skin of his victim nailed to
the door of his wigwam as trophy
of his valer and skill.-Anahcin,
