But Here Is a Bear Story With
Passementerie Trimming in 1t.
W. A. Hayden, land examiner for the
st. Paul & Duluth railway, had rather
thrilling experience last week on Ket-
tie river. He was at work with little
George Washington Ratchet spotting
or blazing q line across hardwood
ridge, and in doing Tit became necessary
to spot a large birch which had sort of
cavern beneath its roots. The cavern
attracting his attention; he thought it
would be a good place to camp on a
cold night. He started in to explore it,
and met she bear coming out. Hay
den's-hair riZ! He didn't want to fight
and couldn't run, so he stood his ground.
The bear didn't care a continental
but she evidently didn't like the looks
OF a free trader and skipped. Hayden
felt easier. He turned back to the hole
and watched the retreating bear, and
was just cursing his luck for leaving
his revolver at the camp when another
passed out between his legs and fol-
lowed Bear No. 1. Humph! An old one
and cub! A little excited and tired,
Hayden sat down on a root to mediate
when another bear came pell-mell and
changed the ends of Hayden, placing
his head where his feet were-NO.
followed No. .. A she bear never has
but two cubs, and the whole of them
are out now!-so Hayden stepped up to
investigate. He Investigated. More
bears. This time the inQuiring land ex-
plorer took to his heels and never
stopped until he was in camp.
He brought away the claws of the last
bear, and wears them strung to his belt
as trophies. But for the little Ratchet
the last bear wouldn't have lost his
claws. There were five in the hole-all
big ones.

The story that combination between the
Manitoba and Burlington lines is revived by
an evening paper the grounds for the revival
being the trip OF Presidents Hill and Per-
kins. 1t is az best pure speculation which
cannot be verified until their return, and
perhaps not then if Mr.. Hill pursues the
same retieent course that has characterized
him in the past.
Additional proofs are coming to light Of
ticket scalping and payment Of excess
commissions to ticket agents. The more the
subject is ventilated the more universal ap-
pears to be the practice. All roads deny
that they are doing it, but there is little doubt
that they are all in the same boat.

Forger Hefter and His Counsellor

ney.
When the case Of K. l.. Hefter,
charged with forgery. was called for
trial in Judge Brill's court yesterday, G.
Tyson Butcher, counsel for the defense.
informed the court that the'prisOner de-
sired to withdraw his plea of not guilty
and substitute one of guilty. The court
allowed the substitution, and Counsel
lOr Butcher then made neat little
speech. implOring the mercy of the
court for the unfortunate forger. After
Mr.. Butcher had told the court all about
the virtues of his client. Judge Brill
asked Assistant County Attorney Mum
whether he had anything to say.
Nothing, your honor, except that the
defendant has just finished term in
the penitentiary for forgery" said the
mercileSS prosecutor.
The statement rather surprised Coun-
sellor Butcher, and he grew rather warm
under the collar. He had evidently ex-
peeted silence from the prosecuting at
torney, inaSmuch as his prisoner had
pleaded guilty.
"WeIl,if you're going to throw up that
charge we'll withdraw the plea of guilty
and stand trial." shouted Mr.. Butcher.
Judge Brill said he would allow the
withdrawal of the plea of guilty. Upon
motion OF Mr.. Butcher the trial was set
for this morning. Hefter wasn't ex-
actIy pleased with the action of Coun-
sellor Butcher, and lawyer and client
left the court room with bad blood be-
tween them. A few minutes later Hef-
ter came back into court without his at
torney. After brief consultation with
County Attorney Egan the prisoner
and pleaded guilty. Mr.. Egan told the
court that Hefter was peculiar charae-
ter, that ne had an irresistible habit OF
forging small checks which might be
due to a certain form of insanity. Judge
Brill deferred sentence until this morn
ing.

Get There, Eli!

The modest announcement by "The
Burlington" of an established fact has
stirred up a hornets nest, as it were.
When the famous Editorial train, Oct.
"a, 1856, started, it had as distinguished
passengers the representatives of the
other lines, and to the query by the As
suclated Press Agent the unqualified
avowal by said agents was that eleven
hours and ten minutes, made that day,
was the best OH record.
The train in question consisted of
baggage ear, diner and four sleepers,
ran 49, miles, changed engines three
times, stopped eighteen times for draw
bridges and railroad crossings, made
fourteen other stops, and, being ahead
of schedule time, lost twenty minutes
for invited guests. One of the railroad
representatives stated that had The
Burlington" started out with that idea
in mind, it could have covered the dis
lance easily in ten hours.
The wheels go round very fast on the
popular VestibIled line to Chicago and
st. Louis-"The Burlington"

TWO CATHOLIC FEAsTs.
All Saints and All Souls Days,
This Week.

This week the Catholic church cele-
brates two feasts-Friday the feast of
All Saints, Saturday the feast of All
Souls. The feast of All Saints is holi-
day of devotion and on this day the
faithful commune with the saints in
heaven by acts of piety and fervent
prayer. The feast of All Souls is a
holiday of obligation and divine service
will be celebrated on Friday as on Sum
day. On this day the masses are Of
fered up for the eternal repose of the
souls in purgatory. These two days,
the 1st and I'd of November of each year
give the faithful a glimpse of the world
to come. They bring home to their
minds most strikingly the great and
solemn truth which is apt to be for
gotten in the worry and hustle of life,
that man is made for something better
than the world affords; that he is
created for eternal happiness. Holy
church teaches that there exists a
brotherhood between its members which
does not cease with death, but goes be-
yond the grave; that the souls in pur-
gatOry and the souls on earth are united
together by close bond of union and
that all are able to assist one another by
their prayers. 800. ..4 -.

The Real short Line.

There is a great deal of talk just now
in the papers about '..Short Lines" to
this, that and the other point. From
some of the claims put forth the public
would get the iaea- that the railroad
having the least mileage between two
given points IS the ,,'SlIort Line" be-
yond question. But is it? Is no ac-
count to be made OF time. comfort or ac-
commodationS? Is not the true "Short
Line" the one which makes the best
time, has the smootheSy roadbed and
furnishes the best accommodations? If
these considerations have any weight,
it will be found that "'fhe Burlington
is the real Short Line from the Twin
Cities to Chicago.
The mileage is little more than that
of one or two of the older lines, but it
makes the best running time, is the
only light-grade thoroughfare, and has
an equipment unequaled for elegance
and comfort.
The first train over the line, Oct. "a,
1856, made the run from st. Paul to Chi
cagO in eleven hours and ten minutes;
st. Paul to La Crosse. Nov. 5, 132 miles,
in 125 minuteS-time that has never
been equaled-Or approached.
The idea that 1.-The Burlington" is
longer line than others is totally erro-
neous. Travellers will find it the Real
Short Line.

Politicians were thick in the lobby Of
