The Huckleberry -Picker's Adventure
With a Bear.

AS l was sitting down picking
huckleberries-Ih had a little black dog
with mel heard the dog barking
furiously. 1 thought that somebody
was plaguing MIN; he is dog that
don't like to be plagued. L thought
that 1 would get up and go and
see what was wrong with him. So
got up and started with my pail. When
l got there L saw q bear as big as
yearling calf. When the dog seen me he
run to me and the bear after him. l
picked up stone--he was coming full
tilt with his mouth wide open. L fired
away with the stone and hit the bear q
pretty hard rap along side the head.
That made him mad; he growled a lit
tie and came right on. l picked up
pine-knot and when the bear came up
the dog snapped him on the hind leg.
He jumped at the dog; then the dog
jumped between my legs; the bear
jumped at me and then l struck him on
the snout. He snorted and blew the
slobber in my face 50 couldn't see
for little bit, then the bear started off
and the dog after him and bit him in
the hind leg again. The bear turned
and chased the dog, which ran behind
me; then the bear jumped at me and
struck him square on the snout again
and knocked him down, and then run
for dear life: ] was too scared to tell
the truth Eve believe him) and the dog
after me and the bear after the dog. I
lost my hat and pail, but did not dare
to stop and pick them up. run about
half mile, when stopped and looked
back. saw two more bears coming;
they were cubs. Then the dog and old
bear come full jump-they all got to-
gether. thought that was goner
sure, but they all made for the little
dog; they fought awhile and called
the dog of Iran to . tree and climbed
It and the three bears started off and
the dog started after them; ne run after
the bears about q mile. I tell you II
ever anybody made tracks for home I
did. That was the first and last berry,
ing that have done this year. That
kind of bear h'aint to be fooled with,
l don't want to see any more bears very
soon. l have seen good many bears
in my time. but that was the meanest
ever seen. She struck the dog once
and knocked him twelve feet through
the brush and the dog got up and started
at her again, but was careful to keep
out of the BEARS paws. / tell you was
glad to get back home alive. - WI

latter should cease if the former is com

ternal Improvements, and let certain
amount, even though it be not large, say
five thousand dollars, be set aside for filling
up these little excavations. Thus in the
the course OF little time, if the work
were persisted in, Cairo would be the dryest
as it is now the healthiest city in the Mssis
sippi valley. The subject is not without
importance and thorough consideration
OF it would not belittle the most dhgnifed
member of the city council.
The shy levee above Quincy broke on
the morning of day before yesterday and
permitted the Mississippi river to rush in
upon about one hundred thousand acres of
some of Illinois finest farm land.
The damage done by the mad waters of the
Mississippi river and its tributaries this
year is incaIcuable, and yet, it is only an
every year occurrence, which is looked
upon by members of congress whose hearts
are locked up in the Golfers Of the east, as
q mere matter Of course. But is it not
fact that, with all the howlings
OF Cairo's caIumniators, who grasp at every
tribe to keep alive among her sister cities
the impression that her people are constant
ly menaced by high water-is it not
remarkable that Cairo has this year and in
other years, sustained not the slightest in
Jury from high Water--has not even been
IN danger OF sustaining any injuries;
while in other places, along the entire
length OF the great father of waters and
many OF its children, the cities have been
and partially and wholly DIES.
troyedS There is something remarkable in
this to those who are in the habit of plac.
ing faith in the uttcrances of the aforesaid
or malicious people; but to
nm, who is honest, and who knows,
here is nothing strange in this, for he will
Understand and acknowledge that Cairos
cvees are absolutely impcnetrable by any
amount of water that can possibly bear up
'gainst them, and that they are sufficiently
nigh to make it equally impossible for
'hcr of the rivers to climb over them.
