Bears In the Mountains,

Messrs. Argo, Patrick and H. F.
Fults, while hunting on Dry Greek
Gulf, on the Cumberland Mountains,
struck the trail of she bear which
their dogs pursued till they came to
the entrance of a cave, into which the
bear entered and made good her escape.
The hunters also by crawling entered
the cave and explored it for halfa mile,
when despairing of their chase and re-
turning they discovered a narrow pass
which they followed about 300 yards
and came to window, too small for
entrance, but through which they could
see the bear and her cubs in their lair.
Having been compelled to leave their
guns at the mouth of this pass, they
had no means of capturing the game
and therefore retired in good order from
the groSiing animal after approaching
within eight feet of her.
The party emerged from the cave
safe, resumed their hunt and killed
three wild turkeys, and another animal
which they did not report through fear
that they had violated the law in the
last instance, and requested us to say
nothing about 1t, %hich request we
pW observe.

COMMERCIAL.

The influence Dallas wields as whole
sailing city is beginning to be acknowledged
at points which heretofore have been in
clined to ignore her facilities and her central
position. In proof Of this it is only neces-
sary to say that to-day, at least two mer-
chants from as far south as Bryan, and one
from Longview, on tho cast, have been here
making purchases, and while they did not
buy largely, it is an evidence
that they are beginning to
realize that Dallas can SUNNY
their wants at much lower prices than any
othor city in Texas. We mention these
facts, not as q rare occurrence, but to show
that the radius Of our business transaction
is gradually extending to more distant
points, and that in few months ut farthest
the jobbing trade Of Dallas will penctrate
every city and town in North Texas And
there is no good reason why IL should not
do so, for our merchants have provided
large stocks when goods were low, and are
now disposing of them at figures which defy
composition in any other city in the South
or West.
Business to-day, as usual, has
has been fair, and transactions with West
ern dealers have been heavy both in theline
of merchandise and produce. The supply OF
grain shipped TO the military posts OF the
West always affords good market here for
corn and oats and greatly increases the vol

our retail business, Prices have undergone
no material change and the few slight Snri.
