The Bear Enioyed 1t.

Lawrence Talman, young man about 1S
years of age, and son of William Tai
man, went out from his fathers wood
camp, about six miles northeast of town,
to look for the cows He had only pro-
ceeded about quarter of a mile from the
camp, when suddenly there stepped out
from behind big log an ordinary black
bear Now, ordinarily the black bear Of
this Northwest country can always be de-
pended upon to take to his heels at the
Sight of a man. Young Talman, however,
concluded that he had not lost any bear.
Since this particular one did not show any
disposition to go, he concluded that he would
60, and that he would not "rest upon the
order of his going," and he went, and to
his horror the bear started after him. He
soon became convinced that he was no
match for the bear on foot, and he Skinned
up small sapling. The bear came up to
within about thirty feet of the tree, and
there quietly sat down to rest and refresh
himself, apparently upon anticipation.
Lawrence finally succeeded in making
himself heard at the camp, when Marson
Ewing, WHO is employed there, went out
to see what the row was. Upon his APP
proach, this time the bear shuffled off. He
had gun at the camp, but no ammuni-
tion, and was compelled to let him get
away. Lawrence is now perfectly satisfied
that bear can always be counted upon to
run-one way or the other, at least

THE WORLDS FAIR.
Chicago Journal Thinks the California
Association Resolutions Improper.

CHICAGO. September l3th.-Concerning
Thursdays Worlds Fair meeting in San
Francisco the Tribune saws: Even If these
resolutions were not unnecessary from
every point of view, it hardly would be
proper to pass them. A dual site was
accepted by the National Commission IN
which California had two representatives,
who, it is to be presumed presented and
advocated the wishes of their people. If
they were outvoted in a fair, open contest,
that ought to end the matter and protests
would be in bad taste. But it SO happens
that since.the tender made by the directors
early in July was adopted, material
changes have been made in the site
and it is improper for any one to talk OF
horticultural and agricultural exhibits be-
ing several miles from the attractive feat
ures of the Exposition.
At first the site consisted of $50 acres of
Lake-front and $50 of Jackson Park. Since
then, for well-known reasons, the 150
acres have shrunk 10 little over fifty, while
the Jackson Park portion has been en-
larged by an addition of 100 acres of good,
dry, improved land, which stands ready
for buildings Thus, one end of the dual
site has lost and the other gained. As the
area of one has shrunk, so have the at
tractfve features which will be placed on
it. As the area of the other has grown, so
have the number of attractions it will con.
tain. There will be on the Lake-front
more than three buildings, one of which
will remain after the fair is over, and the
others will be removed.
In comparison with the features OF the
Exposition which will be placed at Jack
son Park, those on the Lakefront will be
little more than side show. The latter
will owe what value they will have chiefly
to the fact that they can be visited by
night while those at Jackson Park cannot
be The fair proper will be at the southern
end of the dual site, where the Californians
will place their horticultural. agricultural
and other exhibits. They will not be of
on one side, but in the very heart of the
fair, and its chief objects of interest will be
within the same inclosure as themselves.
So the Californians might as well withdraw
their untimely resolutions.
The changes made in the site since the
1st of July. which have taken twenty i've
per cert. off the attractiyeness of the Lake
front and added that much or more to the
interesting features of Jackson Park, have
settled the question where the real fair Will
be, and have made it certain that the Cali
fornians and their great interests will not
suffer for lack of visitors. Whoever at
tends the fair will see all they have to
show.
