HUNTING THE GRIZZLY.
An Interesting Sketch of q Some
what Dangerous Adventure.
The Grizzly Bear In HIS Native Hills and
Haunts-His Nature aud Hxbits-
How He II Tracked aud
Killed.

Mr. Theodore Roosevelt, a gentleman
well known to the social and political
life Of New York. contributes to the
Century highly interesting sketch of .
trip to the Big Horn Mountains on a
hunt for grizzly bears. He says:
A grizzly will only fight If wounded
or cornercd. or. at least. if he thinks
himself oornered. II . man by acct.
dent stumbles on to one close up. he is
almost certain to be attacked, really
moro from fear than from any other
motive exactly the same reason that

This happened to . friend of mine, a
California rAnchman. who, with two or
three OF his men. were following q bear

How She PelitiOned.
IDetroit Post. |

A woman who wanted the Common
Council to pass an ordinance to forbid
goats from running at large in her neigh
borhood, called at a store on Michigan
avenue yesterday TO ask the proprietor
what sort of petition she must send in.
why, you want TO state the case just
as you have stated it to me" he replied.
"But how shall l begin?'
"Well, let's see. | believe they US
ually start off with: "To the Hon. the
Common Council"
Il don't believe it," she exclaimed,
and turning to a customer she appealed
to him to decide.
81 am not sure how petition begins, y
he said, "but know that it must end up
with: And we will ever pray"
"Not much we won't" growled the
woman. "After a drove of goats has
walked all over the roof of my house for
the past year, and eaten up three calico
dresses, two shoes and bed quilt for me
Pm not going to pray any one. Maybe
the butcher next door knows how to Tx
it,"
She went and stated the case to the
butcher, and he thought it over and re.
piled:
at seems to me it should begin with
something like: To your very respecta-
BILE body and close with: i am your
very obedient servant but I'm not
sure"
Servant Do you suppose I'm doing
anybody's kitchen work"
"No, madam, but it's the form, you
see."
'Well, form or no form, I'm not going
to call myself anybody's obedient servant.
I'll write the petition myself"
She stepped to the desk, drew long
breath. and in five minutes had finished.

MARRIED OR SINGLE.
An English Contribution TO q Long
Standing Discussion.
Westminster Review.l


The assumption that marriage offers to
a woman the highest development is
open to question. The normal condition
of wifehood and motherhood, with the
multifarious domestic duties involved, is
a serious drawback to industrial, public
or professional life. To do any consecu-
tive work, single life is almost necessary
to woman.
The married woman develops the
special qualities of wifehood and mother
hood often, almost always, at the cost of
general development. Family duties,
which are gain and impetus to the
career of man, crush and annihilate
the woman. Marriage demands from
her that every thought, every talent,
every project, should be subordinated to
its overwhelming claims. In it her in
dividuality is weakened and sometimes
absolutely effaced. She has not the time
even to continue those habits of physi-
cal exercise and healthy recreation
which maintain the elasticity and vigor
of her unmarried sister; SIZE cannot COM
mand for herself those conditions OF life
which conduce to health.
On the other hand, the number of I'M
married women increases voluntarily,
and not of necessity. The mental life of
these fortunate and superior creatures is
free and untrammeled. The single wo-
mans tastes are various and refined
her opportunities for cultivating them
practically unlimited. Whether it be
in the direction of society, or art, or
travel, or philanthropy, or public duty,
or combination of many of these, there
is nothing to hinder her from following
her own will-no restrictions but those
of her own conscience and right prin-
ciple.
From her stronghold of happiness and
freedom she can help the weak and pro.
tect the poor. She is fitted to fill a
place which has always stood empty in
the history of the world-that of low
ing and tender woman, armed with
official power to redress he wrongs of
women and children, whose nature and
necessities are known only 10 her.
While losing mono of the fun and
gaiety of life, she is called by religious
conviction to stand face to face and
hand to hand with suffering. To be
loving and tender is her nature, but love
aud tenderness do not reach their high
est expression in the personal relations.
If the love of the mother grows by
continually rendering services to her
child, the love of the woman grows by
the protection she gives to many chill
dren and unbefriended, lonely girls. As
the mother benefits two or three, the
single woman may benefit thousands.
When she throws the weight of her in
tellect, her influence, her enthusiasm, on
the side of the neglected and friendless,
she sanctifies those gifts TO the noblest
purposes of which humanity is capable.
The social, legal, political interests Of
woman, children and young girls are the
charge of the femme libre Of the future.
In this direction is found her new and
sacred function.

New York sun

New York sun.
Canadian statesmen say that the In
dams in the states would not cost any
more than they do if Congress boarded
them all at the Fifth avenue hotel,
whereas in Canada each Indian costs a
little less than would keep private in
the army. There are about quarter of
a million Indians split up into little
bands, whose reserves are sprinkled over
the land like the lakes of Maine. The
government keeps account with each
band, sells for them what lands are not
wanted, and holds 100000 in trust
for them.
1t instructs them in farming, provides
them with implements, seeds and cattle,
instracts their children, and feeds all
who need food with pork and grain.
Already the home farms, where the saw
ages were shown how to till the soil, are
rapidly being closed up, and the rations
of food are being Withdrawn from one
band after another as the Indians mani
fest ability to store and preserve their
crops through the winters. Nearly all
the Indians do something towards self
support. Some make baskets, others
make snow shoes and toboggans, others
sell furs, others make barrels, others
catch fish. and so on. Five years ago
the Blackfeet were on the warpath.
Now almost every family has house
and farm.
The upshot of the whole thing, as Sem
ator A. w. Ogilvie put it the other day,
is that "the United States means well,
but her agents hold that no Indian is a
good Indian except dead Indian, while
Canada believes they are human beings,
and that it costs less to treat them kindly
than to fight them"
