Speaker Carlisle was standing on the
corner of Douglas avenue and Marke;
street last Friday, waiting for street
car. when Scribbler walked up 10 him
and said. Mr.. Speaker, | would like 10
ask you question. What do you think
Of the Mills tariff bill: We'll. it is not
exactly what wanted, said
Mr.. Carlisle, but il is probably as good
bill as can be passed and | am in
favor of it, And now | would hike to
ask you a question. You people out
here are interested largely in agricul-
ture. You are getting up great pack
ing house and your Burton Car works,
and some other enterprises are mag
nificent. Now the tariff does not pro-
tect one of these enterprises, but makes
some things which they are compelled To
buy cost more money. This high tariff
is making it harder on them to build
these great industries by locking up
money. Now | want to know why YOU
people support such thing Tine
speaker looked honest, so for once |
thought | would be honest and | said.

of fire were heard to be issuing from the

the iail was on fire. When the cell
door was unlocked which contained the
prisoner he was found to be so nearly
suffocated that he had to be removed to

where they were, we made our way
through the gathering darkness TO the
farmhouse. Philip told me on the way
that he was at work batting fox-trsp
about quarter of a mile from me when
fired my first shot at the cubs, and that
he Immediately started for me. When l
cried Help he ran in breathless haste
toward me. Ny combat with the she
bear could not have been more than two
minutes altogether, but it seemed to me
like an age. You have no idea, and l
never had before, what an enraged she
bear can DO in even that very short space
of time. There is not a particle Of DOUBT
that If brother Philip had not happened
to have come to my assistance at that
particular moment L would have been
chRwed up by the beast.
Farmer Elker, with whom we
stopped, who is himself quite a bear
hunter, went out next morning and
viewed the carcass OF the bear we bad
killed, and captured the two remaining
live cubs. He found them rolling about
their mothers body. During the day
Elker and Philip skinned the old bear,
and the flesh therefrom will furnish meat
for his family all winter. The skin IS IN
box out in my barn, and you can look
at it at your leisure. The bear weighed
3lS pounds, and the skin, as you can
measure for yourself, is i've feet and
three inches long. Farmer Elker found
that the bear was very hungry when she
attockad mo and no believes that her
hunger and the wounding OF her fore
paw caused her unusual ierocity.
The family and friends Of the injured
