The anti Hill movement, which has been in
creasing in volume with amazing rapidly from
the moment it was started, will assume definite
proportions tonight at the Cooper Union, where
its supporters will put themselves on record in
opposition to the audacious and high handed
schemes of the acknowledged leader of the New
York Democracy. Beyond doubt the meeting
will be a large and earnest one MIR. Couder
will preside and speak, and the other speakers,

Dr. J. Eugene JOrian's big black bear, whose

liberty he terrified several hundred people aud
almost killed four men
About O'Clock the big fellow was discovered
walking careIessly about NJ. Yesiers grounds.
In few minutes s. dozen men, armed with

SEATTLE ART LEAGUE.
The Organization Il Now Complete
Mrs. SIaughter's Plans.

MIS- Sloukhtcfb Fl8n9.
Mrs Samuel c. Slaughter. of Tacoma, art d.
rector for the Washington Worlds fair commits
sion, met the members of the Art League of
Seattle at the Rainier hotel yesterday and
assisted in perfseting the organization of the
body. The following officers were chosen:
President, George Cady Johnson: first vice pres
ident, Mrs. Jessie NJ. Elliott; second vice presi-
dent, Mrs. d. L. Fry; secretary, Miss Fisken;
treasurer, Mrs. Herman Smith; executive board,
the officers above aud Mrs. II. E. Holmes, Mrs.
w. r. Forrest, Mrs. W. H. Wilcox and Mrs. A. B.
Stewart The bylaws aud constitution as pre-
scented by Mrs. slaughter were adopted
in their general features. The object of the
league, as stated in the constitution, is to en-.
courage and develop art in Seattle and support
in time school of arts. The next meeting of
the league will be held in the Chamber OF Com
merce April % at 2 p. m.
Mrs slaughter said yesterday, in speaking OF
the work OF the league: "
For this first year we shall be busy with ma
terial for the Worlds fair, but after that we
shall devote ourselves more especially to adj
vancing the cause OF art in this state. Iexpect
that the panels in the Washington Worlds fair
building will be filled with paintings of state
scenery done by state artists. SO far possible
shall organize local leagues, like those OF Ia
coma and Seattle, aud the machinery thus put
into operation will enable US to reach the artists
in every part of the state
l want it distinctly understood, however, that
hese art leagues are not for the women only,
but for the men as well. Art knows no sex, and
want to engage the interest OF every artist in
Washington, whether man or woman. 1t so
happens that the head OF the art department for
this state is woman, but that Is a matter OF
chance. Mrs. Houghton has charge of the
womans work for this states share in the
worlds fair, and my department is entirely dis
tinc., though Mrs. Houghton and are travel
ing together for the sake OF convenience.
One end for which these art leagues will strive
is the establishment by the legislature OF state
art school, This school will grant diplomas,
and those desiring to teach art in our public
schools will thus have place for securing
proper education for their work.

man yelled "help" and murder" in terror, aud
his companions came to his rescue and beat the
animal off with their clubs.
The bear then became angry and charged the
crowd, which had drawn nearer during the
flight and pursuit. but now fed ineontinently.
Four men ran into Mr.. Yesler's two-story
barn, but the bear followed them. One of the
men lodged behind msnger and thus escaped
attention, and the other three took to the upper
story, closely followed by the Infatuated beast
One OF the men, closely pursued, sprang from .
window twenty-five feet from the ground and
alighted in bramble bush, sustain
ing a painful wrench of the ankle.
The bear then turned his attention
to another man, who, seeing every other avenue
OF escape cut off, sprang about fifteen feet from
a window opening on the ground, but was not
badly hurt The third man went up a rope
which hung from rafter, the bear prancing
about beneath him and growing and clawing
in rage He cooled down later on and was clev-
erly captured by means of a lariat.
This is the same bear which was intended to
make Sarah Bernhardt famous as huutress on
her last visit to Seattle. 1t was intended to
plant him in the woods at Green Lake and let
her shoot him, but the owner would not sell
him

on the Sound for twenty or more years. In his
better days he was a seaman, but for many years
he has been an object of charity, suffering from
diseases brought on by dissipation.

headquarters it was discovered that he was
nearer dead than alive, and DR.. Sparkling

hospital The doctor declared that there was
little hope OF his recovery but dressed the sores
on his body, cautioning him TO leave the
bandages alone; that were they disturbed hem

Thursday night the attendants at the hospital
found him bsthed in blood. He had torn away
the bandages. When questioned as to what he
meant the old man whispered:

Backed up by cash offer-the statements
that are made by the proprietors of Doctor
Sages Catarrh Remedy. They say that their
medicine will cure, perfectly and perman-
emily, the worst case of Chronic Catarrh in
the Head-that not only Catarrh itself, but
all the troubles that come from it, and every
thing catarrhal in its nature, are cured by
the mild, soothing, cleansing and healing
properties of their remedy.
They can't say any more. Probably every
medicine for Catarrh claims as much. But
it's one thing to promise a cure-it's a very
different thing to perform it. The proprie-
tors Of DR.. Sage's Remedy want to prove
that they mean what they say. So they
make this offer: If they can't cure your
Catarrh, no matter how bad your case or Of
how long standing, they'll pay you $500 in
cash. You're sure of the money or cure.
Isn't such medicine worth tryingi

A MINERS DAMAGE SUIT.
He Wants S13.50o for Injuries Received
While at Work.

The Seattle Coal and Iron Company was sued
yesterday by Alphonse Valleur to recover sl3..
SO for injuries received while working in the
companys mine at Gilman. Valleur was en-
p.oyed last summer in dumping the contents of
slack cars that were pushed along a track from
the bunkers to the dump. 1t is alleged that
the bed under the track was improperly con.
strueted, much of it being made of refuse coal.
The fire below the track that was kept going
10 burn up the slack burned out the supports of
the track and it gave way, throwing Valleur
down a hf:y-foot emban kment into the fire. Hs
was badly burned about the legs and arms and
his right arm was broken. He claims that his
injuries are of such nature that they will pre-
vent his earning livelihood by labor, aud asks
for 1880 to recompense him.

criticism heard from the audience was that re-

repetition of some clever "turn." Charles H.

own whenever he was on the boards, and Marcia

A STRANGE CATCH.
a Longshoreman Fishing Hauls in q
Package of Opium Cans,

Charlie smith, longshoreman, while troll.
Ing for tom cod from the Ocean dock yesterday
afternoon, made a remarkable catch His hook
was caught by something very heavy, and, tug
ging away at the line, the fisherman pulled into
sight above the water a package OF ten fye-tael
opium cans. They had evidently been there
Tor a long time, as the paper labels on the boxes
mad rotted away. They were bound together by
heavy cord, with piece two or three feet in
length hanging loose, and the supposition is
that some smuggler. being hard pressed by the
customs officers, tied his plumber to one OF the
piles OF the dock below the water mark for
safe keeping. For some reason he never re.
turned, and the cans stayed there until the hook
became entang!ed in the cord
Smith took his prize to Deputy Collector Nc
kenzie's office. The cans were opened and
found to contain the genuine drug, although
somewhat injured by the water that had soaked
through the cracks
