afraid the bear would chase him, and
30 he faced the music and fired two
charges of No. 8 shot into the bears
face aud eyes. The bear couldn't see
to travel after that, aud we killed
him."
One day the young son Of a man
who lives ON Tunkhannock creek
went a mile or SO from home 10 gather
beechnuts. A large, jet black New.
foundland dog accompanied the lad,
and while the boy Mas busy picking
nuts from under a tree he saw the dog
prick up his cars, wag his tail and trot
off us though he had spied another
dog and was going 10 meet him. This
surprised the boy, but he didn't call
the dog back. He watched him
though, and he quickly saw that the
dog was trotting toward a much larger
animal and one just as black as the
dog. When the dog had got within a
few yards OF the other black creature
he suddenly put his tail between his
legs, whirled right about and ran past
the boy Is though he was half scared
10 death. The moment the dog did
this the other animal, which the boy
then saw was a huge black bear,
turned tail just as suddenly and wad-
died off in the opposite direction as
fast as he could 60. Each had been
very much frightened by the other,
and the boy saw nothing more of the
dog until he reached home.
Not long ago two men who live near
here took a beagle hound and went
over TO Red Ridge TO hunt rabbits. 4
large bulldog followed them and stay
ed ear them while the beagle scared
the rabbits out of the brush. All at
once a big rabbit scampered out of the
underwood and dashed down the slope
past the mel. Its appearance excited
the bulldog, and he gave chase at the
top Of his speed. When be was with
in a few feet of the rabbit the dog got
tripped in some running vines and
was turned end for end like a flash.
He didn't realize that he had been re-
yersed, and in his eagerness to get at
the rabbit he ran straight up the hill
the moment he got out of the tangle.
By that time the rabbit was well to-
ward the foot of the slope, and after
the confused dog had run several rods
he stopped all Of a sudden, sat upon
his launches and howled fora minute
or SO, much TO the amusement of the
hunters. -Staufbers Mill Cor. New

that Charles Paul had been convicted

The g. & d. Canal.

The G. g. O. Canal receivers have
made their report and it is an interest
ing document throughout. They have
evidently marshalled every possible
tact favorable to the continuing OF this
waterway, but the obstacles in the way
Of founding hope Of its ability to
maintain itself against competition and
the factor Of possible damage by flood
has turned the scale against it and the
receivers advise against any further
outlay for repairs.
AS we understand it, this recommen-
dation is tantamount to an order for
the sale of the canal property; Western
Maryland considered, we regret it, but
we are wholly satisfied that no other
recommendation by the receivers was
Justified by the condition of the canal
property and the various forces existing,
inimical to it.
