A Bear al Bay.

James Kinnaman and William Fish,
while hunting in the bottom on the
south side of the river at Elma, WASH
came upon bear which their dog had
brought to bay. Kinnaman, who was
the nearest to his bearship, fired at
him. shooting him through the nose
and knocking him down, when the
dog jumped in and began to wool him.
This was more than the dignity OF any
well bred bear could stand, so arouS'
ing himself and takinglnthe situation
he shook the dog off and started after
him.
The dog, of course, ran to jim ior
protection, and jim, in trying to get
out of the way, caught his foot IN the
vines and fell, while the dog went on
This was "nuts" for the bear and
when he arrived at the spot where jim
was lying, concluded that he had
rather eat man than dog any day,
and proceeded to dine in bear style.
Tim had fallen close to log, and to
protect hi5 neck and face poked them
under the log and began to yell, but
his voice was shut off by the log, and
i WAC ante a while before Fish heard
him and came to lis rescue. Arriving
rnon the scene he saw the bear and
could hear Jim's mufied cries, but
conldn't see him, and dared not shoot
until he could get him located. On
coming a little nearer, and finding that
Tim was the "under bear" III the
scrimmage, he fred at the bear and
drove him off. Upon examination II
WAS found that Jim had been bitten IN
both feet. several places in both legs,
both hands and arms and his back and
nosterior we're laceratcd by bruin s
claws. Help was summoned, and JIM
unable to help himself much was rs
sisted to his home. He is suffering
GOOD deal from his numerous wounds,
hut it is not thought that any very
serious results will follow. The bear
was finally hunted down and killed.
but he died hard, twenty-four bullet
wounds being counted in the body. It
was not large animal, either. New

LONG GLOVES IN VOGUE.

AL expensive fad has just been re-
vived, that of wearing long gloves at
fashionable functions during the day
time. When only evening dress de-
manded them it was bad enough, but
now the cost will be considerably in
creased. The smart set wear gowns

cealed beneath wrinkled folds of suede.
Yellow chamois with big brass buttons
nre the accepted style for driving.
The most accepted method for wash
ing these is to make strong lather Of
white soapin basin of warm water with
n teaspoonful of ammonia. Wash the
gloves thoroughly, rubbing with the
hands. After rinsing well in warm
water with q little ammonia, press dry

dry. DO not rub any soap on the
gloves, and when quite dry rub the
stiff parts. if any, between the hands.

The Dog Kicked.

Car, the big staghound, which for
more than two years now has been
one OF the best known figures on the
RialtO, has just passed through a
thrilling experience out West. Some
months ago Car and his master,

It took to the road. In the course or
time it struck indianapolis. Mr.. De
NroOm and Gar engaged room at

The first morning after their ar
rival, as master and dog passed
through the corridor, they heard the
hotel clerk hail a bell-boy and ask If
the dog had spent the night In the
hotel. When the bell-boy admitted
that he had, the proprietor shouted:
"Well, don't let that occur again. "
Gar and De VrOOm waited for few
moments and then sauntered up TO
the desk. De YroOm asked for his
bill. The hotel cler6 looked aston
ished.

Bismarck recently won the hearts OF
all the German women by his exhibit
ton Of that fondness for kissing fresh
young faces for which General Sher-
man was so famous.
Lilli Finzelberg, a young German
sculptures, went with her sister to call
upon Bismarck in Kissengen. His
habit is to let devoted women kiss his
hand When leaving these young wo-
men tried to kiss his hand but the
Prince said: Hold on; We will do
that much simpler. ~
He then laid hold Of the two girls
and gave each several loud, hearty
kisses. The result is that both young
women have become famous through
ont the empire.
Bismarck's habit of letting women
kiss his hand has given rise to a
strange custom. In certain circles
women make collections of kisses OF
celebrated men. Some of these are
valuable and most interesting more
so than all the stamp and coin collec-
tions in the world.
Real Bismarck kisses, however, are
ceedingly rare, and the Finzelberg
girls are the envy Of all kiss collec-
tors.

FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.
SOAP SUBS NOT INJURIOUS TO TREES.

SOAP SUBS NOT INJURIOUS TO TREES
Soap suds are valuable as fertii'
izer. both for the potash or soda OF
the soap and the matter which is
washed from the skin or clothing. The
skin wears quite fast, and the soap dis
solves the exfoliated scales from it, as
we'll as some other animal matter of a
heterogeneous character. This soon de-
composes and evolves ammonia, as any
one may discover by the odor of the
waste of the wash tubs if it is kept a
few DAYS in the warm weather. Am
monia is one of the most valuable OF
all fertilizers. If this waste of the
household is gathered in any convent
emit receptacle and deodorized by
means of plaster added to it, or by the
addition of some sulphate of iron dis
solved in it, it will make the best
liquid fertilizer for flowers. New

FASHION NOTES.

The armured silks glace with spots,
splinters and stripes are especially
rich in their color-schemes.
Leather belts are fastened with
superbly carved silver buckles, To-
zenge shaped and as wide as an enye'
lope.
Gored yokes and collarettes deyel'
oping from the collar have the seams
covered by jet gimp or Hercules
braid.
Serges are yielding their popularity
to hop-sacking and basket weayings.
These wooden stuffs are forty-sixinches
wide and are seryiceable and very
stylish.
Immense ruches of the dress mate
rial edge with lace like boa are put
at the neck and skirt of silk and gauze
dresses. Velvet ruches, silk lined, are
seen even on heavy cloth coats.
Finely twilled glace surahs giving
the effect of satin come in a variety Of
pretty plaids in cashmere colOrings in
nacre tints, in pin dots, stripes, are
the all-prevalent ombres, changing
like the beautiful foliage.
A new white pocket handkerchief
has a border forming overlapping
squares OF thicker linen placed corner
ways and edged with lace. The tiny
spray effect all over in embroidery Is
desirable and the simple lace border
stylish.
Felt hats with double-faced brim'
are the rage. A soft velyety black felt
with white facing is one of the very
popular styles, or one of cream-white
with black fur felt facing, with trim
mings of black and white satin ribbon
and black Valkyrie wings.

HARDNESS OF BUTTER.

The New Hampshire experiment sta
ton has been conducting some expert
ments as to the effects of different foods
upon the hardness of butter, and
though the work in this direction, IS
not as yet extensive enough to justify
the drawing of conclusions, their ex-
periments thus far indicate: That glu-
ten meal tends to produce much
softer quality of butter than cornmeal
or cottonseed meal, and other things
being equal, tends to lessen the churna-
bilitv of the butter fat. That with the
same COWS the hardness depends much
more upon the character of the food
than upon the nutritive ratio; that
ensilage produce much softer butter
than does good hay; but it IS also
favorable to the flavor and texture OF
the butter product; that skinned milk
has a very favorable effect upon the
churnability and quality Of the butter
fot. and in a single trial apparently
reversed the general rule that the VIOLA
tile fatty acids decrease as the period
of location advances; that cottonseed
meal tends to produce an unusually
hard quality of butter, and that cot
tonseed meal aud gluten meal might
be used together with excellent re-
suits; that contrary to general belief
the melting point of butter fat Is not
a good index of the commercial hard
ness of butter that while IN general a
soft butter melts at lower tempera-
ture than hard butter, there IS no
definite relation between meltlngpolnt
and actual hardness that no relation
can be traced between foods and VIOLA
tile fatty acids, except in the case Of
skim milk: that usually hardness and
volatile acids vary inversely, hardness
generally increasing and volatile acids
decreasing, as the period OF lactation
advances. New York Tribune.

PREPARING A RAIN BARREL.

Though barrels may be used for
catching supply of rain water, If only
the best should be selected, yet they
will prove bad enough; SO bad, in fact,
that every householder should discard
them and put in a cistern, which, for
a small family, should hold not less
than thirty barrels. Thousands OF
housewives with large families are OBJ
liged to depend upon the common rain
barrel for a supply of soft water for
dish washing, scrubbing and the week
" family washing. An oil barrel,
whether kerosene or other oil, is the
best for the purpose. Knock out the
head and clean out the barrel by
screaming with knife. Throw in some
lighted papers, and let it burn for at
least three minutes, or until the out
side of the slaves feel hot, then throw
in water or loose earth to extinguish
the flames. Even if the inside be a
little charred, there will then be no
danger of the oil tainting the water.
The oil left in the slaves will prevent
the expansion and contraction which

Mulev Hassan, the Sultan OF Morocco

specimens of an absolute monarch
existing. He is "the State" HIS So

that ever worried the Sultan. Dir
Charles journey last year was to con

Muley Hassan assentcd. then retracted'
bnt finally gave in. The clause over
which the Sultan stumbled had refer
ence to the wholesale appointment OF
Vice Consuls and the powers assigned

lively interview with Sir Garnet and a
critical one with the Sultan. There
was a demonstration of Moors before

was staying.

After the riotous demonstration before
the Mission House, and while Sir
Charles Euan-Smith, accompanied by
the Viziers and an armed escort, WAS
on his way to the now historic meeting
with the Sultan, there met him at
every hundred yards or SO personal
attendant of the Sultan-''men Of the
bedchamber' they are called-who
came galloping with breathless haste
with haik and burnous and many col
ored caftans floating behind them like
streamers in the wind. They were
mounted on magnificent barb horses
that had been fretted into white foam
by the speed at which they had been
driven. As these "men Of the bed
chamber" came abreast the cayalcade
with one cruel twist Of the inhuman
Moorish bit they brought their barbs
to a standstill, and, leaving them quiy-
ering where they stood, with Blended
knee kissed His Excellency's feet, or
sometimes but touched with their hands
his feet. and then kissing their hands
thus made happy by touching him, de-
claimed in this wise: my Lord, We
pray Won to hasten. Our Lord Seed
ma beseeches that you come to him.
He will neither eat, nor drink, nor
sleep, nor have any peace until you
come to him. Ny Lord, we beseech
Won to hasten. Our Lori languishes
for the light of your countenance." 1t
was, indeed, a picturesque sight to see
these horsemen. No fewer than twenty
of them met Sir Charles on his short
ride of one mile to the Palace, and each
one delivered the same beseeching mes
