The spectacle is sometimes observed
on our streets of women of refinement
riding in singleseated vehicles beside
negro drivers, from whom it would be
supposed that they would shrink in
stinctively. The temporary relation
is we'll understood, but in spite of this
fact, the spectacle is offensive to the
sensibilities, and should not occur

We have seen the same thing here
and elsewhere. We agree with what
the Times says. Further comment
is unnecessary.

proceeds to express his opinion of our
Chief Magistrate whom he styles the

made the bullet pillow into the bears

The bear was then within forty feet
of him, and commenced to assume the
proportions of mountain to his widen
ing eyes. Joe and Ed were on either
side of the battle-ground and handi-
capped by some bushes. AT the doubt
full moment Ed sighted the head of the
animal and Immediately emptied two
big loads of buckshot from his double
barreled shotgun, tearing sway the side
of her head and topping the animal
over in hurry. Tho boys saw that the
bear had been sucking her young, SO
they waited few minutes until her two
cubs came out from the thcket in quest
OF the mother.
1t was only the work Of a few minutes
to lariat the youngsters, and then they
dragged their game to the ranch. The
bear was very fat, and weighed 900
pounds when dressed. The cubs were
about two weeks old whom caught, and
were kept for three months on bread
and milk. They are docile, plump, and
curiosity to many visitors. Mr. Tucker
has standing offer of $3.50 for them
from the Native Sons Of the Golden
West, but 5000 will havo to como out Of
the funds of that organization If the
cubs will form feature in the parade

How q Couple of Thorn We're stolen from
Their Mothers Side.
Away up in the mountains in the
northern part of Del Norte County the
predatory visits of Il large black bear to
the hog ranches elected about as much
souealing among the owners of the land
as they did from the kidnapped pigs
While the trouble was almost unbeara-
bic, David Tucker, commission mer-
chant of this city, travelled into those
parts, says the San Francisco Call lie
had with him a Winchester repeating
rifle that carried ball especially
adapted for destruction of life in large
black bears, and he organized party TO
hunt the hog-thief to death.
Joseph Morrison and Edward Murray,
plucky shepherd dog, and German
deer-hound followed Tuckerup the deep
canyon for about nino miles one day,
and only stopped to rest when they had
reached dense forest of tall trees,
where the ground was covered with a
thick underground. Dave concluded
that the bear was behind the scenes, and
sent the dogs in to reconnoiter. In a
few minutes the collie came out like a
rocket and yelped for sympathy, as it
showed badly torn hip by the claw OF
the disturbed animal. Another minute
had not gone by ere the deerhound
emerged with precipitation, and only
stopped to join company with its allies.
The bear followed the dogs with a
mad haste, growing ferociously over
their temerity in invading her home,
for it was female bear; but the growl-
ing was changed to fierce grunts as she
caught sight of tho hunters. Bruin
raised on her hind legs and bore down
upon her assailants with motions OF the
forepaws that challenged a fight to the
finish. Dave fired q ball into her breast,
| near the shoulder, but without causing
the brute to even wink. He pumped
| another cartridge from the magazine
! and sent it tearing through the anatomy
of the monster with rs little effect as its
predecessor. Then he commenced to
