Postmaster-general Thomas j. Brady, who,

dentally discharged into his foot a load from
a shotgun, day before yesterday, is resting

the wound is very painful. it will not
necessarily require amputation. At first
it was thought that at least half of the
front part of his foot would nave to be am
putated, but an examination proves that it
is a flesh wound and that he will not lose
any of the foot. The General was out bird
shooting, and in a thOughtless m

part of his foot; In another thonghtless

SPRINGFIELD. April 10.-The great sur
prise of the legislative session thus far was
the action of the House to-day in striking
out the appropriation for the State Board

this board there has been a great prejudice
against it in the rural districts. but it was
hardly expected that the popular OPPOSE

to cause the board to be swept out of exist

She Wanted tn Hug the Bear,

WASHINGTON, April 1O.-At the Smith
sonian Institution, recently, while Captain
Weeden, the keeper, was standing in front
of the bear pit. an elegantly dressed woman
of apparent refinement approached, and
after looking through the bars a few mo-
ments. exclaimed impulsively, "How 1
should like to hug that BEAR"
"The Captain was astonished, but man.
aged to say, We'll, there is nothing to pre-
vent it,
But how shall 1 get inf" the visitor
asked.
"COme with me.D
Together they went to the door at the
side, and without a moments hesitation or
even q loss of perfect cOmpOsure the lady
followed her guide into the pit. Going
boldly up to the largest bear she patted
him on the head. to the intense astOnish-
ment and admiration of the Captain, who
remarked, Madam, you are the nerviest
woman in Washington"
Thinking to test her further, Captain
Weeden began to edge off toward the door,
but his guest had evidently read about the
traits of wild animals in captivity, and
kept close to the keepers side, making her
exit safely in his company and departing
without making herself known. She ran q
greater risk than she was probably aware
of, for had she offered to touch either of the
other animals in the pit, in all likelihood
not even the Captains presence would have
been sufficient to prevent her from being
roughly dealt with, if not seriously injured
by the ill-natured brutes.
