Killing a Hinge Grizzly.

For some time the cattle men in the
vicinity of Bridgeport have been missing
cattle from their herds. Among the
principal losers was N. B. Hunnemill, an
extensive land and cattle owner. He
set big 100-pound bear trap in pig
pen-l structure of logs, with az open
ing on one side, and balted the trap with
calfss head. He also attached an
eighty pound log to the trap. 1t had
iron hooks to it so that it would catch
against distractions and prevent the
ferocious animal from travelling rapidly.
1t was set for two days, but the bear
did not touch the bait. Finally Mr..
HunnemilI visited the log pen in Buck
eye canyon and found the trap gone. The
trail of the log and trap and tracks OF
the bear led up the heights above the
canyon. He raised posse Of men,
among whom was Mr.. Miner. They
trailed the bear up the sides of the noun
tain, over perpetual snow at times and
barren stretches at others. They travelled
fast and made many miles before they
finally came in sight of the grizzly.
"His right forepaw was caught in the
trap" said Mr.. Miner, .but. notwith-
standing that and the dragging of the
eighty-pound log, he travelled we'll. As
soon as we got near enough we COM
menced firing with our Winchesters and
revolvers. We fred at least twenty-five
shots. The bear reared and oawled like
calf He didn't stop to fight; he was
trying to get away. We kept following
him aud blazing away, and be would rear
on his launches and CRY out at every
shot. Most of US we're almost tired ou.
with the hard climbing and We didn't
know for time whether we could kill
him at all. At last he was finally brought
to bay and 45-caliber ball killed him.
ssWhen he had been rolled down the
sides of the mountain to where we could
take him to town we found curious
thing. Many of the Winchester balls
had had no effect on him at all. They
had struck his muscles and flattened out
completely without going further. II
was the same way with his head where
they had struck. They had aafsened
there as they had against the bundles OF
muscles. The grizzly weighed zoe
pounds. We had great barbecue Of
bear meat when we got the bear down
to town. - San Francisco Examiner.

Extraordinary Coincidence.

An extraordinary coincidence occurred
in Fleet street the other day. After the
sssettling" at one Of the sporting clubs
gentleman went into restaurant, where
he had glass of wine with some friends,
and then took cab to the Bank Of
England, thereat to deposit some money
On counting the sum he found that he
had lost tifty-pound note $3.50, and
at once sped back TO the place Of enter
tainment to lock for the missing spa
per-" being ignorant both of the number
of the note and Of the hanson which
conveyed him to Threadneedle street.
The search was truitless, so he promptly
chartered another cab TO convey him TO
Scotland Yard. To his JOY and surprise
his lost treasure was lying on the seat;
it was the same vehicle in which he had
been driven to the bank. This may read
like romance; it is merely matter OF
fact.--London Telegraph.

HOUSEHOLD MATTERS.
A BUSTING APRON.

A dusting apron is made of two thick
nesses of fine cheese cloth or scrim.
These are caught together around the
four edges by feather stitching of red
or brown wash silk. At the top a Sec
ond row of stitching makes place
through which broad white tape is run
for strings. A few stitches in the centre
catches this tape in place, and when the
apron is washed the strings will not need
to be removed, and cannot be lost. A
row of stitching across the centre of the
apron, and smaller rows dividing the
lower half in two and the upper into
three parts, with tape bound openings to
slip the hand in, make pockets. In the
two lower ones are a sweeping cap, and
one of these convenient broom coverings,
made of canton flannel, with, possibly,
an outline design of crossed brooms to
tie on the broom when sweeping down
the walls.
In the upper three pockets are several
busters, squares of cheese cloth hem med
or finished with a stitching to match the
apron. New York Telegram.

WEDDING GIFTS.

The ethics Of wedding gifts is being
much better understood than formerly,
with the result that brides of to-day do
not find themselves loaded with fourteen
molasses jugs or twenty three fish knives.
A casual acquaintance, a man especially,
going out to select wedding gift, reso-
lutely turns his back upon anything Of
which only one is needed In the house,
hold. Choice outside such prescribed
articles is not difficult in these days,
when things, ancient, modern, common
and costly, are valued as bric-a-brac. At
. wedding very recently of a bride, who
will reside on small estate near the city,
pair of old iron gates, secured at dis
mantled English place Of former preten-
sions, delighted the recipient with their
unique novelty. Another couple re-
ceived at their marriage last spring an
early English door OF oak, beautifully
carved, that had crossed the sea from
its original setting. With the gamuts Of
gifts extending from ancient gates to old
copper warming pans, now valued as
bric-a brac, it is certainly not necessary
to duplicate. A final suggestion is a
word OF caution. Taste III wedding gifts
is not always present. The more formal
friends should offer articles of adorn-
ment and decoration rather than of pro-
nounced utility. Relatives and inti-
mates are, of course, not 60 restricted. d.-

FASHION NOTES.

Russian fashions are popular for
school girls.
Black satin tea gowns trimmed with
| lace are new fancy.
New skirts are narrower at the top
and wider at the bottom.
Double-sleeve capes of velvet are seen
on cloth and rich silk dresses.
Shoulder ruffies have come in with
big sleeves and are quite the craze
Bead trimmings in Persian colors are
among the most elegant importations.
Slippers Of black undressed kid have
gilt toes and are tied with yellow silk
ribbons.
White felt hats are trimmed with large
bows Of bright red velvet and a.grettes
and dagger Of fine jet.
The old fashioned moss trimming is
revived, and is shown in mixed colors
and all popular shades.
Large plaids are fashionable, and
dresses are made either entirely of plaid
or in combination with velvet.
A black velvet hat is trimmed with
magenta velvet and cluster of magenta
and yellow roses, with black lace.
There is q very strong rivalry as to
who will produce the best and most ap-
proved dress for wear on the wheel.
Little girls dresses with velvet yokes,
shirred waists, full sleeves and velvet col
lar and cuffs are preferred for ordinary
wear.
Marie Stuart bonnets are again in
fashion, and, as they are extremely be-
coming to many faces, will no doubt be
popular.
An attractive little waist Of pale blue
rough cloth has deep plastron and
pointed girdle of kid embroidered in
Russian work.
In place OF the vinaigrette tiny box
with an under lid of perforated silver is
now used, which emits refreshing,
pungent odor.
The little Toreado1 jackets of velvet
or cloth are not only very smart looking,
but may be put on over . thin silk when
the evening is cool.
Flowers in all the new pieces are to be
arranged in small nose2ays, or few cut
flowers only in each, but there are many
little branching cups.
The large flaring hat is not BY any
means discarded this season, but brought
out with as many twists and turns as It
is possible to give to it.
\ Fashions for little girls seem to have
absorbed ali Of the good points for which
the costumes Of their mothers and elder
sisters have been noted.
Colored kid slippers and shoes are en-
broidered in steel, gold Or jet, and red
shoes have black patent-leather toes and
very fine jet embroidery.
Fur, velvet and galloon are seen on
somc Of the newest imported garments.
The use Of these materials en- the samo
dress is perhaps open to criticism, but
they are sometimss used, nevertheless.

Frances Willard was not q girl who
was easily baked, says w. 7. Stead in
his sketch OF her In the Review Of Re-
views. Her ambition to do all her
brother did drove her, when forbidden
to ride horse, to saddle and ride her
COW. Here is her story OF this charac-
teristic episode:

determined to have steed OF my own

NEW STYLES OF HAIR DREsslNa.

M" Sx1AhS VI AAih UnhSSiN0s
The sweeping changes in the shape Of
winter hats and bonnets have brought
about new style of wearing the hair,
termed ssthe bun"-a very descriptive
name for the big round knot of hair
which is soon to be the fashion. It is
worn low, though not SO low as the
Langtry knot, and demands q larger
amount of hair than the majority Of
women possess. Nets are very generally
worn both over the fringe and back
hair. but as they are woven Of hair and
are very light, they are not unbecoming.
The new fringes and toupees here are
mounted on q sort of collapsible frame,
so that they do not get crushed or fat
tened by the weight Of hat or bonnet.
