More Luck Than He Bargained For.
l.. d. Baylor, William S. Hall and
Thomas Price, of Standing Stone have
returned from hunt on Gauley River
in Webster county. Hall was badly chew
ed up and torn in a fight with big fe-
male bear, and he says that he don't
want any more bear fighting in his'n."
One day last week Hall left camp, say
ing as he strobe off: "I'll get bear
to-day, boys" He did, but for while
it looked as though the bear would get
the man. In d narrow gap between the
mountain Hall Suddenly came face to
face with an old.she bear and two grown
cubs. The hunter threw up his Wins
chester and knocked over one of the
cubs at the first shot, Then the enrag-
ed old bear caIue at him with open mouth.
AS she came up Hall blazed away, firing
two shots. both of which struck the
bear without cripling her
He pulled again, but the gun failed
TO 90 off, as he had exhausted his last
cartridge. Catching the gun by the
muzze, Hall struck the animal as she

came within reach, but his blow had
no more effect than to render her more
| furious. The bear caught him by the
leg and bit him, but Hall jerked his leg
away and struck the bear again and
again and then they had it rough and
tumble over ''half an acre of ground"
as Hall tells it, the bear getting in sew
eral severe bites and cutting him on the
arms and body with her long claws.
At last Hall succeeded in striking the an
imal on the nose, stunned her, and
| before she could recover the hunter
killed hen Hall was bitten and storn
in may places, bnt succeeded in getting
back to camp, where his injuries were
attended to SIS well as could be done by
amateurs. Halls companions went
back on the trail and found the bear
and one cub lying on a spot of ground
which had been torn up in the fight.
AS Hall was too badly hurt to continue
the hunt, the men broke camp and went
home Halls hurts are painful and nu
merous, but are not considered danger
Gus. He says, now that he has had his
bear hunt, keeping a country store is
more in his line than killing bears.

Expansion OF Oklahoma.

The report Of Governor of Oklahoma
makes an interesting and suggestive ex-
hibit of affairs in that locality. Popu-
ulation in the older part of the Territory
is estimated at ISL coo. As the number
in 1890 was only 81, O00 the present fig
ures represent an expansion for three
years which has seldom been equalled
in the same length of time in any part of
the West. The Cherokee Strip recently
opened adds, it is computed, 1000 to
the population, bringing the total num-
Der of inhabitants in the Territory up
to 251 600. This gives Oklahoma larg-
err number of inhabitants than any other
of the Territories, for Utah, the most
populous of all Of them in 1890, had
only 5000 in that year, which number
must still be considerably below the
100000 mark. New Mexics's population
ia 1890 was 154, COO, and Arizona's 60,000.
In neither of these territories in the past
three years has the growth been rapid.
In General business development and
wealth the growth of Oklahoma seems
to have been equally wonderful. The
six national banks and twenty-four pri-
vate banks in the Territory show that
the industrial, commercial and fnan-
cial interests Of that region are well
taken care of. The railroads running
through it appear to be we'll patronized,
and new lines are projected to meet the
requirements of q steadily and rapid ex-
banding community. 1t was less inju-
riously affected by the financial distur-
bance than were the other Territories
and than some of the States, and as con-
sequence it has rallied quicker from the
effects of the panic. Agriculture, of
course, is far ahead on all other interests
IN the Territory, but factories are be-
ing established and mines opened.
Within year its activities will be fairly
we'll diversified, and a well-developed
and symmetrical growth will be had.
Possessing climate and soil favorable
to production of all sorts of articles
grown in its latitude, the Territory offers
peculiar attractions for settlers.
The bill before Congress asking for
the admission of the Territory to State
hood deserves favorable consideration.
Assuming that it's population is 251 600,
as the Governor estimates it to be, it has
more inhabitants than any of the six
recently created States except South Da-
kota and Washington. Of the older
States, it is ahead of Delaware and Ne
vada, having not far from six times as
many inha bitants as the latter. 1t is
favorably situated, also, for continued
expans ion, lying between Missouri and
Kansas on the one side and Texas on the
other st. Louis is especially interested
in the growth anil fortunes of the Ter
ritory. Her business relations with this
3ty have been close and extensive from
the beginning, and they are being diver
sifed and expanded rapidly. This city
is the chief distributing point for the
entire Southwest, and Oklahoma is a
growing, prosperous aud progressive
portion of that section.

Helping Themselves.

New York has esta blished /; school
in which the children of the poor are
taught to make and dress dolls. The
charge of teaching the system is fifty
cents week. The parents pay this
sum. and the little ones bring their
own materials Everything they
make, dolls and dresses. is their own,
and there are many pupils already
earning n living in their own spare
hours. In the poorest houses there
are scraps of flannel, dress goods and
what not, which find their way to the
rag bag. These apparently useless
bits are taken to school by the chill
dren, and converted into dolls and
their outfits. 1t teaches the art of
dressmaking, as the adult system is
only the enlarged doll system.
