A NOVEL BATTLE.

Deadly Conflict Between Bull and a
Bear-The Farmers Neck Broken.
Farmer Amasa w. Suckers barns stand
within sight of the Shades of Death Swamp
in TobyHanna Township. While Mr..
Stoeker was at dinner one day last week he
heard his cattle believing in the barn-yard,
and, running out to the gate, he saw bear
trying 10 lug one of his young calves over
the fence, says Scranton (Pa.) dispatch to
the New York Sun. AS soon as he had
taken in the situation Mr. StOeker put for
the house after his rife, and when he re-
returned to the gate the bear had dropped
the calf and was defending himself against
a tbree-yeaT-old bull that tackled him. Mr..
Stoeker said that it looked to him as though
the bull was going TO give the bear all he
needed, and so lie leaned on the fence and
watched the battle.
After the bull had made three or four
luuges at the bear the latter backed off and
tried to Climb over the fence; but just then
the angry bull jammed his horns against the
bears side, and the bear suddenly turned
Oh the bull. struck him on the nose, and
again undertook to mount the fence. The
blow on the nose seemed to infuriate the
bull, for, with below of rage, he rushed
at the bear with his horns lowered and dealt
him terrific thrust in the back. The force
of the bull broke the fence down, and bear
and bull landed ON the other side of it in a
heap.
BY this time the bear was mad all over,
while the bull hadn't cooled off bit. The
bear got up and faced the bull, and the bull
made another dive at him on the double
quick; but this time the bear instead of
turning tail raised his right paw in a twnk-
ling, and hit the bull tremendous blow on
the top of his head right between his horns.
The bull dropped as though he had been
hit on the head with a sledge, aud he
sprawled out and didn't get up again.
Then the bear started for the swamp in
great haste, and Nj. Stoeker ran after him,
firing his rifle at the bear as he ran. His
ammunition soon gave out, and the bear,
with slight wound or two, got away and
disappeared in the swamp. The bull was
dead when Mr.. Stoeker reached him, his
neck having been broken by the bears
great paw, and the calf lad been handled
so roughly BY the bear that it also died be-
fore nigbtfall.
Mr.. Stoeker and his son went in search of
the bear right away. They followed him
for a mile over the frozen surface of the
swamp, found him licking his wounds in a
clumD of laurels, and riddled him with bull
lets in less than two minutes.

A SCHOOL STAMPEDED.
A Reformed CannibaI Terribly Brighten
15OO COlored Children.

A Reformed Cannibal Terribly Frightens
1900 COlored Children.
The entire colored population of Charles
ton was thrown into excitement to-day by
panic among the cOlored children of the
Morris-street School. 1t is the largest col
ored school in the United States. having
nearly 1900 pupils. 1t was about 10 80
o'clock when wiry-built, bright-lOoking,
copper cOlOred man, dressed in the fantastic
costume of an East Indian, walked into one
of the ciasS-rOomS of the primary depart
ments and began to make a speech to the
children.
He told them that he was reformed can
nibal and used to eat human beings, and his
general appearance bore out his assertion,
saws correspondent of the Pittsburg Dis
patch. The colOred people have lately been
on their perennial scare about the medical
students and were easily frightened. The
children laughed at the speaker at first but
he ran at one of the girls with outstretched
arms and she fed, shrieking that the man
was going to eat her.
Swiftly the panic spread. and in moment
the entire school was in an uproar. They
rushed heller SHELTER out of the classroom,
down the stairs, out in the yard and thence
pell nell through the gates and over the
fences into the streets.
The excitement spread through the pri-
mary to the intermediate departments, and
within three minutes after the first Shrek
of the frightened girl rang through the
building there was not a child in it. Soon
the colored population for squares around
were attracted by the chldren's screams.
The street in front Of the building was
packed with negroes, everybody was yelling
at the top of his voice, ami for awhile it
seemed as though pandemonium had been
let loose.
News of the panic spread as if by magic
throughout the city, and by the time 1t had
reached the lower portion of the city had
been magnified into a terrible accident. The
building was said to have caved in and hun
dredI of lives been lost. A platoon of po-
licemen arrived on the scene, but were
utterly powerless to keep the crowd away.
Others scaled the fences shrieking for their
children, and the confusion became worse
aud worse. After long battle the police
managed to clear space enough to allow the
children to come out and matters were
finally quieted. Only three out of the 1900
pupils were injured. and none fatally. The
man who caused the panic was arrested, and
had to be escorted 10 the police station I'M
der strong guard
He says lie is a Fiji Islander. 70 years old
and was once a canni6al. He gives the
name of John Charven. and says lie dined
once with Mr.. Blaine at his home in Maine.
He is now on featuring tour, and was to
have ltetured Tonight in one of the large
negro churches.

SACRAMENTO, April 3-Lookabaugh was
hit hard from the start in to-day's game
and was very wild. He gave eight bases on
balls. besides being touched up for thirteen
safe shots. Ward, Sunday and McGuirk
drove the ball to the right-field fence several
times, and the visiting outfeiders were kept
busy chasing the hard hits. Lookabaugh
was given good support, despite the ham,
mering he received, not one batter reaching
first base on an error.
Hoffman pitched a steady end effective
game. all the hits scored against him being
made In the first four or five innings. He
received good support. and the home team 5
errors were not very costly. Spies caught
fine game, and threw three runners out at
second base. McCloskey and Work ex-
changed positions, but neither had much to
do. Peoples made several fine sto S and
catches. and played fine game all round.
Donohue failed to put in an appearance,
and the game was delayed fifteen min utes
awaiting his arrival. Bowman was finally
chosen to umpire. His decisions were
strictly impartial, generally correct, and his
judgment on balls and strikes good.
McNey made a phenomenal catch OF a
seemingly sure hOme-ruu hit from Sundays
bat, and was cheered to the echo
The home team took the lead from the
start, and were never headed, winning
easily by score of IL to 3.

DEATH BEFORE DISGRACE.
Captain Whose Face Was Slapped Con
mits Suicide.

Captain Whose Face Was Slapped Com
mits Suicide.
A private letter from st. Petersburg as
serts that the recent suicide of Captain Won
Kaufman had no connection with politics
as suggested. The facts are that Kaufman
aud his friend. Count Tolstoi, who is no rel
alive of the novelist, entered a restaurant in
fashionable quarter and found Naval
Lieutenant Dvorschetzki there with COM
pany of musicians, whom he had engaged
for his private amusement, says London
cable to the Pittsburg Dispatch. kauff-
mann, who was drunk, made fun of the
music and jeered at the musicians until
Dvorschetzki, a man of gigantic stature,
lost his temper and slapped the face of his
superior officer. Tolstoi managed to prevent
fight and subsequently effected reconcil-
iation. ALI the parties agreed to preserve
silence.
Dvorschetzki, however. broke faith and
told the story to the captain OF war-ship
anchored at Peterhof. through whom it ulti-
matsiy reached the ears of General Richter.
When next the General met Kaufman and
TolSt0i it was at the court bali and he Or
dered them to leave the palace precincts.
Kaufman went straight home to his moth
er's house and blew out his brains with a
revolver. Tolstoi, less sensitive, called out
Dvorschetzki, but the duel fought last Sun
day was bloOdleSs.

MURDER WILL OUT.
A Shred of an Assassin's Skin Between
Dead Girls Teeth.

A Shred of an Assassin's Skin Between
Dead Girls Teeth.
A curious murder case and mystery, whose
gruesome details would have done honor TO
the Imagination of Edgar A. Poe. has just
found its denouement in the place where
the crime was committed, namely, Id
Switzerland, near Berne, says the st. Lo uls
Star Sayings.
Late in the autumn fair was held in that
city, which attracted large concourse OF
people from the neighboring villages.
Among these was a young country girl, one
Anna HackiDger, who came with party OF
her friends aud neighbors to partake OF the
festivities of the occasion. Late in the
evening they all started for their homes in
little hamlet not far from Berne. II was
not until they reached their destination that
they discovered that Anna was missing.
Her corpse, frightfully mutiiated and in
an Undesirable and shocking manner, was
found day or two afterward in a field not
far from the main road. Search was atonce
made for the assassin, but without avail.
lie was rot discovered, and after the hrst
nue and cry was over the affair seemed TO
nave settled down into one of those mystic
rlous crimes whose perpetrators are destined
to remain forever unknown.
The police authorities held in their pos
session a solitary scrap of evidence against
and healthy country girl. She had fought
hard. though vainly, to preserve her honor
and her life. From between her clenched
teeth, the physician intrusted with the per-
formanee of the post-mortem examination.
had diSengaged fragment of human flesh,
torn off in her struggles, from the face or
the hands of her assailant. This CHASTITY
morSe, preserved in alcohol, was put care
fully away, so as to be ready TO produce IN
case of need.
Time went on, and the baffied detectives
failed TO find even the slightest trace of the
mysterious criminal. But the other day d
young medical student in the University of
Berne was in the act OF laying aside his
street coat to put on his working jacket,
when his shirt sleeves became disarranged,
revealing on his wrist a strengthening
wound which had apparently been caused
by terrible bite. His comrades crowded
around him, overwhelming him with Ques-
tons concerning the origin of this singular
injury. lie stammered, became confused,
gave lncoherent and contradictory answers,
and finally, breaking away from the crowd,
he hurried back to his home, seized a loaded
pistol and shot himself through the head
The police authorities OF Berne being in
formed OF this catastrophe, caused the piece
of flesh to be produced and applied to the
young mans arm. 1t fitted exactly, and
further invest cation with the microscope
proved the identity of the suicides skin

OLSEN'S TRIAL.
An Aggressive Speech Made by
Attorney Budd.
Ha ASSailS Witnesses and Testimony 10
Be Introduced by The State.
Settlement Of Labor Troubles In The North,
Secretary Proctor Starts for
San Francisco.
Special to THE MORNING CALI.

MERGED, April 3.-The prosecution in the
Olsen murder trial began this morning on
the opening statement of what they in
tended to prove. First the jury and au-
dience were treated to panorama of maps,
enlarged photographs, etc. Of the scene of
the murder, Attorney Reddy, acting as lee
turer and District Attorney Fowler as the
scene-shifter. Mr. Reddy then went on to
outline what he expected to prove and
rnisei quite a commotion when he said:
I'VE intend to prove that Olsen told man
in 1855 that if no heir was born to Iyett
he could kill Iyett and easily prove an alibi
and that two years ago Olsen told the same
man that $1,000 could be made by killing
Ivett, and since the murder agents of Olsen
had threatened said man if he testified to
this" The prosecution then closed the OPEN
ing statement and the noon recess was an
nouneed.
When Judge Law called the court to
order in the afternoon there was standing
room only in the large courtroom. AT
least 100 ladies were present
James II. Budd of Stockton made the
opening statement for the defense, consum-
ing about two hours and half in his re-
marks. BE first spoke at length, condemn
ing clrcumStantial evidence. He then ridi-
euled the evidence Of the prosecution, espe-
cially the action of the District At
tOrDey in measuring footprints aud
hunting up other evidence. He then
attacked Detective Lawson of Los
Angeles, who has been at work on
the case He said Lawson had tried to pat
up job to eXtort money from the Olsens;
that Lawson was an eX-convict; that Law
sons brother, detective in Oakland, was
an eX-ConYict. He then said Olsen would
never have been arrested If 1t had not been
for the money in the lvett estate. He said
the Public Administrator expected to get
the handling Of the estate if it were proven
that Olsen is guilty. lie also said the man
whom the prosecution had ready to swear
that Olsen offered $1,000 10 have Iyett killed
was named Bennett and that he Is now in
State Prison for stealing hogs. His reason
for swearing against Olsen was to get even
with Olscn's attorney, who had refused to
defend him.
In fact. Budd attacked every witness that
he thought was material 10 the case. He
said he could prove that Ivett did have enc
mics who might have an object in killing
him, but it was not his business to prucp-
cute aHy one this time for killing Iyett. He
was here to prove Olsen'S innocence, and he
proposed doing so.
Budd made a fiGe speech, but it was more
like a closing argument than an opening ad-
dress.
Maps and photographs of the country sur
rounding the scene OF the murder we're
offered in evidence, and the court adjourned
TIL morning.

Only Little Romance.

Alexander Sharpnack, travelling man
from the East. is authority for the as
sertion that the famous Hatfield Mccoy
vendetta, which is supposed to have
ragged with such fury in West Vir-
ginia and Kentucky for several years,
and which, it is said. is now to be ended by
marriage. is the invention of a newspaper
correspondent Il made a trip through that
region about year ago." said Mr.. Sharp
mack, "and more quiet ana orderly
community / never saw in my life.
Instead of bloodshed and murder being in-
duged in the inhabitants are peace-abding
in every respect, ard was assured that but
one murder had taken place in all that sec
ton within six years. 1t seems that an
account of it was telegraphcd to the New
Sun from Catlettsburg, KY. and Julian
Ralph. the famous storywriter, who was
then doing newspaper work, conceived the
idea of taking an account of supposed
feud among the rival families. The result
was great sensation that put the rival
papers On their mettlc, and story followed
story, each more curdling than the preceding
one. 1t looks now as if the Joke had grown
to be a chestnut, and was to be ended as
suggested. 1t will be great relief to the
people Of that neighb0rhood. who have pro-
tested vigorously from time to time against
the injustice done them"
