TWO WOMEN WHIP THREE BEARS.

They Were Not Robust Brutes, but They
Were Bears All the Some.
The ParkersOns and Ackleys of Prescott
pasture their cows in the same lot. One
Saturday night these cows did not come up
to the bars as usual. and after waitin
reasonable time Mrs. Thomas Parkinson
and Mrs. ElbTidge Ackey started out to
find them. 1t was almost shutdown when
the women began their quest. They pushed
on, however, and, having climbed the hill.
had entered belt Of olG-growth woods ON
the edge Of the swamp, when Mrs. Parker
son caught Mrs. Ackley by the arm, crying:
"Oh, my! lOok!" pointing to the right.
Mrs. .Ackley followed her advice and did
look.
What she saw would make an ordinary
woman laint away, but dOwu-East women

three bears, an old female and two cubs,
went to pile OF cOTdwOOd close by and
procured two stout round birch sticks about
four feet long.
The subsequent battle was short but very
exciting. The Ole bear was lean and weak.
She made deal Of noise, but when it came
TO fighting she wasn't in it," Two times
she moved up and showed fight, but fail
ing to break through the waving wall of
clubs got down on all four ald beat a hasty
retreat, followed by her two young cubs.
One OF these little bearletS was very weak
and could not run nearly so fast as the other,
so in the course Of ten or fifteen minutes the
old mother bear aud the stronger cub were
out of sight, leaving the poor weak one
to the tender mercieS Uf two widr-awake
women.
The little fellow was soon dispatched. the
cows were found and the tired yictors went
home to get supper, proud of their work

Friends Of a Murdered Man Avenge His
Death a Year After the Crime.
The fact of the lynching of negro,
lump Hampton, in Claiborne Parish, New
Orleans, has been mentioned by the press,
bat not until to-day were the exact facts re.
ceived by Governor Nichols. The informa-
ton from the peHitentiary officials Is to the
effect that last year Hampton, who was a
resident at Claiborne Parish. was suspected
by his white neighbOrs of completely in a
hog-stealing case, and they went in a body
one night TO his house for the purpose Of
correcting or lynching him. He warned
them off from his house, and on their per-
sistiug in the attack, he shot aud killed one
of the members of the party.
This dispersed the crowd for the night, but
the next day Hampton was arrested for the
killing. An attempt was made 10 enter the
Jail and lynch him, but the plans Of the mob
were thwarted by the prompt action of the
Sheriff. Hampton got a change Of venue
and stood trial for the killing and was ac-
quilted. He was Immediately rearrested
for stealing, and fearing that he would be
lyuched if he remained in Jail pending
trial, he pleaded guilty ana was sentenced
to one year, and the Sheriff delivered him
to the penitentiary at once, and tie lynch
ers were again prevented from doing any
violence.
The crowd was determined to avenge the
killing Of their friend, and waited patiently
until Hampton had served out his sentences,
when they had him arrested on an affidavit
sworn out before q Justice of the Peace on
the day of his discharge. Upon his arrival
at Claib0nes he was met by en- armed
mob, who took him from the constable and
burned him to death. The next day moth
ing could be found of Hampton except a
heap OF ashes aud pair of burned hand
cuffs.-Philadelphia Times.

THE BROKEN HEART.
Written for The moBSrNe CALI.
TWAS but a few short years ago

Twas but few short years ago
That she, the fsirest OF the fair,
Around the heaTthstORe cast glow
Asifa sunbeam fingered there;
And, for a time, her pulses thrilled,
While IN her JOY a tear would start;
But, oh lifes bitter winter chilled
That woman with a broken heart.
She does not love-she cannot hate;
peerless star she shines alonei
silent dove without a mate,
An empress ou miSfortune's throne.
She does not share our earthly Ills
From all the world she's set apart;
No human passion ever thrills
That woman with a broken heart,
Too late. the past you now deplore-
For reason hath fors9ok her throne;
Your pleading passion moves no more
The heart you fondly called your own.
She does not hear the voice OF love
Which moved her once with magic art,
No power can cheer, save one above,
That woman with broken heart.
WSh tears you cannot break the spells
With prayers yen cannot move her now;
on darker than the shades Of hell
Is periured mGnhood's faithleSs VowI
And it were just to me ii seems,
If for each triie set apart,
Earth held no sweeter. brighter dreams
Than dawn upon broken heart.
