L came suddenly upon q very large
bear IN a thick swamp, lying upon 3
large hollow across a brock, fishing and
be was so much interested in his sport
that he did not notice me until 1 had
approached very near to him, so that I
could see exactly how he baited his
hook and played his fish. He iBhed in
this wise: There was a large hole
through the log on which he lay, and he
thrust his forearm through the hole and
held his open paw IN the water and
waited for the fish to gather round and
into it; and when filed he Clutched his
fist and brought up q handful of fish, and
sat and ate them with great gustO; then
down with the paw again and so on.
The brook was fairly alive with little
trout and redslded suckers. He did not
eat their heads. Their was quite a pile
Of them on the log. / suppose the oil in
his paw attracted the fish and baited
them even better than a hy hook, and
his toe nails were his hooks, and sharp
ones, too, and once grabbed the fish was
sure to stay.
They also catch frogs in these forest
brooks, and drink Of the pure water in
hot summer days. and love to lie and
WaliOW IN hot muddy sW&mps as well as
our pigs in the mire. They often cross
narrow places IN lakes by swimming, and
also rivers, and seem TO love TO take
turn in the water. I once saw one swim
ming from the mainland 20 the big ISL
and in MoosemaguntiC lake, with Just 8
streak of his back out Of the water, look
ing ike dog moving along. Sometimes
you see only their heads out of the water;
at other times half their bodies are TO be
seen. We account for this difference by
condition. If fat, the grease helps to
buoy them up; if lean, they sink lower
In the water.

ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTEEN
Death Of the Oldest Woman In the state OF
Illinois.

a Wilmington lIll.) special says
"Auntie Wilmore," as she was IA
miliarly called, or Nancy Cass Wilmore,
as her real name is said to have been,
died in this city Wednesday at the age
Of one hundred and sixteen years. She
was undoubtedly the oldest person in
this State, if not in the United States.
Her early history was not clear to her
until on her death-bed, when her whole
life seemed to pass in review be-
fore her, and person who was
present wrote down her history
as she related it.. She was born about
the year l7G9 in North Carolina. Her
father, Samuel Cass, then removed to
Shakertown, Ky. Her mother, whose
maiden name was Sally Wales, died at
the age of thirty, leaving nine children.
Her father soon married Nettie Taylor,
by whom he had seven children. OF
the sixteen children all were boys cx-
cept Nancy. Her father lived in Ken
lucky for eight or nine years, and then
removed TO Alabama, though she re-
manned in Kentucky, living with fam
lily named Andrews, and married a her
first husband a man named kcency.
When first known in Wilmington she
was widow. Here she married John
Wilmorc, who was miller. His death,
forty-iiye years ago, Is recollected by
many residents of this city. Both she
and her husband were considered quite
elderly people even at that time. She
was known as very Jealous and de-
voted church-member, and claimed to
have been converted at wonderfully
sensational c2mp-meeting near Shaker
town, KY, when mere child. and when
hundreds fell PROSTATE in a spiritual
trance. She joined the Presbyterian
church here under the pastorate of the
Rev. Mr.. Cook. and aiterward under

LONDON, February l9.-Parliament
opened at 1 O'Clock this evening. There
was no crowd in attendance TO witness
the opening ceremonies. The police al
lowed no person to pass the gates un-
less that person was able to show that
he had a right to enter. MIR. Gladstone
upon entering the House Of Commons,
was loudly cheered.
ia the House of Lords the Govern
ment was at once assailed by Conserva-
tiyeS with bombardmcnt of questions
concerning its intentions in the Soudan.
Earl Granville, Minister of Foreign
Ailairs, replied TO these various inter
rogatorieS in behalf Of the Government.
He frankly stated that the Government
had left it entirely to Lord Wolseley to
decide whether the British forces should
proceed TO attack khartoum at once or
DELAY the attack until later-Say some
time next autumn. Earl Granville fur
thcr admitted that the Government be-
licyed General Wolseley would decide
upon the poslponemcnt oi aggressive
operations.

Lord Salisbury, Conservative leader,
speaking for The opposition, said that
everybody should be made to feel that
the Government would properly meet
the present grave juncture in the public
affairs Of England. Hesaid that the state
ment made on behalf ofthe Government
by Earl Granville was one which it be-
came the Lords to reflect upon. " If the
country is not satisfied, " said he " with
the Governments explanation, it will
visit bitter censure upon those answer
able for so fruitless policy. IChecrs.l
We do not propose to anticipate the
discussion which must inevitably come
later on, but we must hope that Eng
land will not retire from Egypt leaving
no record Of our presence there except
the mischief done and the bones Of our
soldiers"
In the House of Commons Sir Stat
ford Northcote, leader of the opposi-
ton. gave notice of q motion Of inquiry
respecting the Governments Egyptian
policy.
The Marquis of Harrington, Secretary
of State for War, replying to a question
Of Sir Stafford Northcote, said that the
War Office had received dispatch
stating that Colonel Sir Redyers Butler
had evacuated Gubat, and that he would
probably retire to Merawi or korti.
MIR. Gladstone, in answer to certain
interrogatorics about the Governments
conduct in Egypt, replied in much the
same tone as that used by Earl Gran
Vile in the House of Lords. He added,
however, that the present situa-
ton did not allow the Government
to make oyertures to III Mahdi,
because such overtures might defeat
their own object. Mr.. Gladstone stated
that the policy of the Government to
evacuate Egypt eventually remained UNI
changed. He said he had done all he
could for Gordon and was not to be
held responsible for his death.

the earliest day possible, which he hoped
would not be further off than next
Monday. that an humble address be
presented to her Majesty the Queen
representing that the course pursued by
her present Liberal Government in re-
gard to Egypt and the Soudan had in
yolyed great sacrifice of valuable lives
and heavy expenses without any
beneficial results [chcersl, rendering
it inpcratively necessary to the
interests of the British Empire
and the Egyptian people that the Gov

take decided measures to fulfil the re-

to ensure a good, stable government in
Egypt and in those portions of the Sou
