A Young Bear Hunter.

Mr.. Sampson has a number of sheep grazing
on Swift Creek, Trinity County, and, knowing
the beauties Of this climate in summer, re-
moved his family to that place. One evening
last week his son and daughter, aged respect
lively ten and eight years, went down to drive
the sheep into camp, and found them only u
short distance away, hOmeward bound, with
large bear following closely in their wake.
The boy told his sister to crouch down and
hide in the bush, and he did likewise. When
the bear came along the boy fired several
shots at him with revolver which he had.
Hearing the shots and not knowing what they
meant, Mr.. Sampson left camp In a hurry to
see what occasioned .the shooting, and soon
came in sight of his children and the dogs
rushing excitedly down the hillside on the
trail of the bear. The boy yelled that he had
hit him, and to come quick or they would lose
him. Sampson Joined the chase and followed
the trail by the blood until it became too dark
to see. Next morning he went out again and
found the bear dead only short distance from
where they gave up the chase the evening be-
fore. The boy had shot him through the body,
just back of the shoulders.-TfinitylC Cal. Jour

A Matrimonial Complication.

We learn of curious matrimonial
complication which occurred in Jones
County, Ga, a short time ago. 1t
seems that certain young lady was ar
IDENTITY sought after by two young gen
tlemen. Each pressed his suit with so
much zeal that the young lady could
not decide between them. To gain
time she engaged herself to both, duly
appointing time for marriage. One
young gentleman at once went to the
father to get his consent, and was made
happy. The other no less promptly in
terviewed the mother, with entirely
satisfactory results. Neither father nor
mother mentioned the affair to each
other. The young lady then wrote to
No. postponng the marriage. But
the appointed time. came on and NO. :
car.e with it, having made every prepa-
ration; but at the very last moment ho

and retired. No. he ,ring how No Z
was treated, and fearing like fate,

No. 2 renewed his suit, won the yacll-
lating fair one, and everybody waa "ada

Heroic Deeds Of Il Brakeman.

On Friday afternoon last John W. Moses,
brakeman on the swtch-cnglne Of the Bel
Vilerc Delaware Division of the PennSylva-
mia Railroad, for the third time within few
years riskcd his own life to save that of
another by l"aping from a train running at
nigh rate OF speed through bridge studded
VITA IRON bars INTO the Delaware s. RaritaE
Canal. at the foot of Rose street. in this city.
\ Hru'd reporter called at the humb',

envy street, last evening" and found him, sur.
rounded by his family, eating his frugal meal
alter uays toll. In answer to the report RS
request to tell him all about the rescue, Mr..
Moses, in a mattcr-of-fact sort of way, re-
piled:
"Oh, it wasn't much; but didn't like to take
q bath with my clothes on. You see, we were
going along pretty lively with train of freight
clrs and as we approached the junction
bridge saw the boy in the canal. At first
thought he WAS taking Il swim, but looked
again. saw that he had on his clothes and dis
appeared twice under the water, each time
struggling and tlOundering. Then L knew be
was drowning; so just made up my mind in
less time than am telling you 10 wait until
the train reached the bridge and make dive
for the youngster. Just as the train got into
the bridge the boy was going down for the
third time, and without itng for anything
made a dive for him between the iron rods
which support the swing bridge. In doing
so struck against one of the rods, and they
are only about three feet apart, which threw
me over on my side. 1t Stung right smart but
struck out for the boy and grabbed him by
the back Of the neck just as the top of his
head was disappearing, and then made for
the shore with him. When l got him to the
bank he was pretty limp, tell you, but we
soon brought him to. understand his name
is Vansant, and that he is about ten years
old"
Mr.. Moses, who is a muscular and jol-
young fellow then asked to be excused, as he
had an engagement on hand, and in another
moment he went skipping out of his house.
whistling. After he had left a member of his
family said to the reporter:
"Johnny don't like notoriety, or he might
have told you of even more hazardous rcscucS
made by him. Why, few months ago he
jumped off his train into the feeder, Warren
street, and saved a big man who weighed near
ly two hundred pounds, and Johnny had hard
work to keep the man from drowning him.
Then about two years ago a woman and two
children were thrown into the canal by the
sudden opening of the Perry street bridge 1t
was Johnny's luck to be around again, and Of
course he jumped in and saved Them
Inquirng among the brave mans fellow

courage and for his good nature; that he is

WHY THE COWS CAME LATE.
LOUISIANA

Crimson sunset burning
Ger the tree-fr nged hills:
Golden are the meadows,
Ruby flashed the rills.
Quiet in the farmhouse,
Home the farmer HES:
But his wife is watching,
Shading anxious eyes,
While she fingers with her pail beside the
barn-yard gate,
Wondering why her Jenny and the cows come
home so late.
Jenny brown-eyed maiden,
Wandered down the lane;
That was ere the daylight
Had begun to wane.
Deeper grow the shadows;
Circling swal OwS cheep;
katydidS are calling:
Msts DER meadows creep.
Still the mother shades her eyes beside the
barnyard gate,
And wonders where her Jenny and the COWS
can be so late!
Loving sounds are falling,
Homeward now at last
Sprckle Bess and Brindla
Through the gate have passed.
Jenny. sweetly hlushing,
Jamie. grave and shy,
Take the pals from mother,
Who stands silent by.
Not one word is spoken as that mother shuts
the gate,
But now she knows why Jenny and the cows
came home so late!

ont claim and three men jumped it,
the Governor refused to issue ammuni-
ton or to let the Sheriff move; and do
you know what had to do9 l had to
dig canal from river three miles
away and let the water in to drive the
jumpers out, and even then the Coroner
who sat on the bodies made me pay for
the collins and charged me $l2 for
funeral sermon only seven minutes
long! Don't 60 beyond Colorado if you
want to be used wellH' Wall Street
