A COwardIy Bear.
Fenelon Falls (Ont.) Gazette.

Fenelon Falls (Ont.) Gazette.
Last Tuesday morning Warren Schell,
of Somerville, noticed that the grass in
one of his fields. about quarter of o
mile from the house. looked as if some
animal had been eating it, and suspect.
ed that sheep had got in, but on looking
around he saw traces of bears, thh
presence of which on his farm he had
not suspected. About o'clock in the
evening he returned to the spot armed
with his Winchester repeater. and, upon
cautiously approaching, found a whole
family of bears in the field. The two
old ones were quietly grazing; the
cubs, which were about two months
old, were jumping and playing around
their mother.
AS Mr.. Schell crept nearer he saw
that the she-bear was watching him, ala
though she still kept eating. and he
thought it best to settle her first, as be-
ing likely to prove more dangerous
than her mate. He accordingly whis.
tied, which caused her to raise her
head, and he planted bullet in her
breast, at which she rushed furiously
toward him. Firing q second time he
again struck her in the breast, and she
turned and fled, but just as she was get
ting over the fence the third bullet
from his rifle entered the back of her
head. and she fell to the ground NOR.
tally wounded. She gr0wled and strug.
gled for some time, and bit through a
balsam root, four inches thick, that hap
pened to be within her reach. Mr..
Schell then turned his attention to the
cubs, one of which rose OH his launches
and showed fight, while the other
climbed to the top of the fence and
watched their dying mother. A bullet
apiece killed them, and as the last one
fell the bear, which had made no at
tempt to defend his family, turned tail
and ran for his life.

BETTER LATE THAN NEVER.
Senators Respect the Memory of
Representative Cox.

Senators Respect the Memory of
Representative Cox.
WASHINGTON, July S.-The senate
to-day after routine business took up
the conference report on the silver bill.
A long discussion ensued, which was
interrupted at o'clock. and the bill
went over without action till tomorrow;
the senate passing from that subject to
the memorial exercises III respect to the
memory of the late Representative S.
S. Cox, of New York. Mr.. Hiscock
offered the resolution of sorrow and
sympathy, and delivered brief eulogy.
Mr.. Toorhees spoke OF Mr.. Cox as one
whose life was free from stain, speck
or blemish, as a brave man, men
tally, morally and physically; man
who laughed danger in the face, and
the law of whose being was liberality.
Mr.. Sherman paid his tribute to the
private and public life of Mr.. Cox. and
was, at times, SO affected as to be forced
to pause until he mastered his emotion.
After addresses by Mr.. Vest and MI.
Dixon, Mr.. Evarts eulogized Mr.. Cox.
1t was not doubted, he said, that Mr..
Cox had served the state from boyhoOd
up; that he had labored for her and
loved her; that, for society ana friend
ship and mankind, he did what enobled
and expanded him, and that he was
enrolled on the list of those whose MEM
DRY men would not willingly suffer to
pass out of notice. The resolution was
adopted, and, as further mark of re-
Epect, the senate adjourned till to-
morrow.

AN UNSETTLED FEELING.
A Good General Business in Wheat

Orders.

Financial Operations Of the Money
Kings---The General Quota
tons.

CHICAGO, July 8.-September wheat
sold as high as 9411lc on the curb before
business on the regular board began.
This rise induced good deal of selling
by those who bought yesterday. The
first news was of character to en-
courage further selling. The result
was that September opened at 907sc
and sold off to s95sc during the first
hours business. the weather map
showed lower temperatures in the
Northwest, where excessive heat pre-
vailed yesterday, and first advices from
abroad were that the weather in Eng
land was clearing. Counselman, Mil
-Bodman, and other commits
sion firms sold wheat during the decline.
Later advices were bullish and part OF
the lost ground was regained. Pills
bury wired that he had sold 500 car
loads of flour at an advance of IS I'd.
Roche had advices from his Minnesota
farm that rust was appearing In many
places. New York reported % boat
loads, or $4,000 bushels of wheat, en-
gagged there for export, and there were
various other bits of bullish news float
ing around. Dunham's aavices from
continental Europe were that the
weather was cold and wet. Letters
from Evansville, Ind, said that thresh-
ers' returns indicated half-crop. Mail
advices from Columbia, Tenn, were of
the tenor, and said also that millers
were asking for offers of wheat for i'm
mediate grinding. Cash wheat was
ais reported as rather scarce at Mime
apolis and Duluth. September wheat
slowly improved to 9O5sc on this news.
but it was plain that many of the large
operators were selling quietly through
brokers. as it soon slipped back again TO
S9Xc. A few minutes before the close
there was fresh buying on 26 loads taken
for export at New York, and $4,000 blu
vessel room taken here. Last prices
were pretty well up to the top for the
day at ss1sc July, S97sc August, 901ac
September, 91&c December. The action
of the corn markes for two days shows
how easily the trade may be led one
way or the other by dispatches. Corn
jumped nearly &c yesterday on
scare over drouth when no real
danger existed. To-day the trade
heard of showers in the Southwest, and
imagined the crop saved and ready for
husking and cribbing, and straightway
sold all they bought yesterday. The
result was drop in prices of about lie
all around. Oats held firm for a long
time after business commenced, but
finally weakened under heavy selling
by New York and St. Louis people. S.
V. White and Mccormick & Co. were
supposed to represent the New Workers,
and the latter firm and Logan & Co.
were presumably acting for the st.
Louis crowd. Provisions started in
steady, but weakened later on free sell
ing by the packers. The Anglo COM
pany disposed of liberal quantities of
lard, and Armour's brokers supplied all
corners with ribs.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

The Issues at Law Between Lowell
and Doe.

and Doe.
The issues at law between Elmore
| Lowell and Doe in reference to the
Sawyer house property and possession
will probably be settled in the courts
| this month. A decision from the SUI
| preme court in the matter of the re-
ownership, on the question whether the
lower court had authority under the
circumstances to appoint a receiver and
GUST Doe. is expected by the latter part
of July. In the district court on July
II will be heard the question raised in
the mortgage foreclosure proceedings
instituted by Lowell against Doe. the
matter to be determined being what
amount is due Lowell under the mort
gage. Until that matter is settled and
thereby can be made known at what
figure the property may be sold for. the
court will not decree the sale.
Up to July 4 the amount of logs
turned out at the boom had reached 49,
100000 feet. All the employees were
given holiday on the Fourth, and as
occurs after an occasion of that sort
the boys are slow acout getting back to
regular work. However, it seems that
they were not needed in a hurry,
though the logs have been slack in COM
ing for a few days. 1t is said that
sluicing proceeded all of Sunday at the
big dam, and logs are probably forth
coming at the boom by this time.
A fire, accidentally encouraged by the
servant girl, who arose at O'Clock yes

removed in good condition.
G. A. Bennett, clerk of the district
court. has been severely afflicted for
several days and incapacitated for
work by decidedly angry carbuncle
that located itself upon his neck, and
has so preyed upon his vital forces that
a great PHYSICAL weakness has resulted.
The physician i'll attendance believes
that the worst of the direct affection is
over and that within week the clerk
will be fully upon deck again.
