the speakers, flanked at right angles by
eight smaller tables, so that the whole as

Portland, Ore, was recently thrown
into momentary excitement by what APP
peared to be cruel murder on one of
its principal streets in broad daylight.
A man with blood streaming down his
face dashed out of cigar store, pur-
sued by another,who was yelling wildly
and brandishing a revolver. The crowd
followed, and at the next corner the
pursuer caught up TO the fleeing man
and shot him in the back. He fell head
long to the pavement and the other at
tempted to run away, but was captured
by a policeman. He was taken to a
magistrate NEARBY and testified that his
victim had deliberately grabbed a cigar
(naming the BRANDY from his mouth on
being told by the dealer that he had Just
sold the last to the gentleman in ques-
ton. He had naturally been rendered
furious by the loss Of such a fine cigar, and
had struck the man and then followed
him and shot him. He was locked up,
and it was not until the next morning
that the affair was shown to be a sell,
for the supposed victim had bribed a
doctor to say he was fatally wounded.
Every paper but one fell into the tran
and published the name of the brand of
cigars.

WASHINGTON. May 25.--lt has been Mt
least $50 wears since yeritable bear hunt
occurred in this district until this morn
ing, but the hunt to-day was II genuine
and exciting one, and the bear was a
grizzly that promised devastation to hooks
and herds, To say nothing Ot women ana
children, il not captured.
The grizzly was three years old, a present
to the 200 from Yellowstone Park, strong
and agile. He escaped from the 200 about
4 O'Clock q. M, and when young coloreh
lad met him soon after sunrise ON tae
Pierce's Mill road the lad fled as fnst as
his legs could carry him, and when out of
danger told the news To all he met that
bear was loose, and then houses were
closed, children kept home from school,
shotglins were loaded and llocks guarded
until after noon. when definite Intelligence
was sent out that the bear had been killed.
II seems that the appropriation for the
zoo is not sufficient to keep bear safely
Had the appropriation been larger the
wall of the bear pens would have been
made higher. but i'm insufficient appro-
priation made low wall, and the bear
took advantage of the circumstances,
scaled the wall and got out. The brothers
Cramer, Superintendent Blackburn and
Messrs. Routt, Coyle and Houghlon,
caught on the bears trail and hunted him
until near noon.
Meanwhile Messrs Hess and Hunter, Of

bear found them. and attacked Mr.. Hess
and bit his leg, but was beaten off by Mr..

cameup with a posse, and u fusilude upon
the animal was begun. The bear had NJ

from serious injury or death this after
noon. He was proceeding through st.
james street when the horses attached to
his carriage took fright and bolted. The
coachman made frantic efforts to stop the
runaway, but the horses dashed along
until the carriage came in collision in the
middle Of the roadway, and was over
turned.
A crowd quickly assembled and Lord
Salisbury was assisted out of the carriage
through window. He was severely
shaken up but quite cool and declared he
was not hurt. The coachman was thrown
heavily from the box and sustained severe
injuries.
Lord Salisbury appeared to be more con,

asked after him repeatedly. After giving
directions as to his proper attention cab
was called and Lord Salisbury proceeded
to his destination. The carriage was com
