He wore a bland, conteuted smile
which puzzled the school---the scholars
admired him, however. He was not
very distinctly aware of anything; he
knew history class succeeded the
geography, and a spelling class the his
tory, and that two additional spelling
classes followed, and that Molly was
speaking to the school in her bright
tones---something about next weeks
work; and that she was giving mill
tary sounding order-one, two, three;
and that the school was filing out with
well-trained precision: and that at last,

the warm, CHEEKY, dusty schoolroom.

And she went to the far end of the

But Harry turned, too, andy no

ports having quite little adventure the
other day while on his soutnbound trip.
While crossing "Rattlesnake FORK
trestle two large bears, it appears,
emerged from the woods at the side of
the track. and trotted on the trestle
ahead of the train. Smith gave a pull
with the throttle, and the engine
bounded forward The bears heard the
on-coming train, aud plainly did not like
the situation. They were afraid to leap
from the trestle, which was quite high,
and began trotting 10 gain the other side.
Finding that the train was gaining on
them, both turned just before reaching
the middle of the trestle, and standing
upright, faced the train, and put up their
fore paws like accomplished and trained
prize fighters.
The train rushed on, and the cow
catcher struck both bears, fairly throw
ing one about twenty feet into the air
and off the trestle, and lifting the other
one some ten feet into the AIR. The
latter, as he came down, fell on the plat
form IN front of the boiler, and, clutch
ing at the brass rods, managed to retain
his hold there. Frightened by the roar
of the engine so close to him and the hot
iron beneath him, bruin hastily scrambled
up and crawled onto the fore part of the
board that runs from the cab onto the
front of the engine.
Catching sight of the freman's face
through the window, the bear growled
savagely, suffering severely from his
wounds, probably, and started for the
window. The fireman had Just been
raking the fire and his huge iron poker
was red-hot. As the bear cIaHled along
near the window he threw it open and
unged at the bear with the red-hot iron
poker. The hot iron went sizzling into
bruins hide, and the agonized beast gave

United in Marriage.

Last Tuesday evening pleasant
wedding was solemnized at the
home of Mr.. Charles Kleugel at
Punahou. Gathered there were the
relatives of MIR. Augustus l.. Smith,
and Miss Clara Benfeld: the former
one of Honolulu's well-known citi-
zens, and son of the veteran mis-
sionary Dr. Lowell Smith; the latter
granddaughter of the pioneer mis-
sionary Rev. Asa Thurston. DIR.
Smith, now in his seth year, per
formed the ceremony in simple
and impressive manner. Two fairy
little bridesmaids, relatives of the
bride, stood beside her, while little
groom and maid, relatives of the
bridegroom, supported him in turn.
Congratulations were hearty and
many. The bride was adorned with
natural orange blossoms, whose
fragrance mingled with the wealth
of roses prominent in the decora-
tons. In the central part of the
room was a table that was one
solid dome OF roses, the lower part
being entirely shrouded with vines
and ferns. The refreshments were Law
ish and toothsome. Many gifts gave
token of love and good fellowship,
prominent among them being a mag
nifcent Hawaiian calabash of island
wood, on one side of which was
carved the letters K. S. above the
word Kaumakapili This was the
gift of the Sunday school teachers
connected with that church, with
whom Mr.. Smith has been associ-
ated in Christian work for twenty
years. When the happy couple left
for their own home, it was with the
gay and hearty benediction of show
ers of rice.
