to be caught in the late autumn and to die
before spring in his improvised hut. With
anxious eyes we looked far to the north, to-
ward that region of effort and Of sacrifice
and of so many vain aspirations, and saw
nothing but white horizon, ominous with
the tnnUmerable eleva ti0nS with which ma

Exciting Adventure With a Bear.
Monday, May 2l.-Officer Of the day,
DR.. Mohun.
Our sledge party returned little before
noon after twentyfour hours of hard work
and exciting sport. Shortly after reaching
Parry's Island they saw a herd Of four
reindeer near the shore The animals were
almost as white as the snow Itself and
very poor. But any sort OF rein is good
enough for an enthusiastic sportsman, and
our sledgemen are all enthusiasts in the
chase. Without pausing to consider wheth-
er the deer were fat or lean, white with
winter fur or brown IN summer raiment
they dashed down the hills. Their skis
they had left at the foot of the mountains
and could not toboggan In their usual
graceful style. So they got down I'M
gracefully, awkwardly and sometimes pain
fully. They slid on their backs. their bel
scrambled from rock to rock. and the won
der Is they did not break all the limbs in
their bodies and their precious necks be-
sides. How they got down the thousand
feet OF hillside they will never be able to
explain. but on reaching the bottom they
had the pleasure of seeing their game fly
ing over the snow at a rate of something
less than mile a minute. The deer were

peared. Two or three polar bear had also
seen the reins and had set after them.
There Is nothing the Ice bear likes better

away. 1t was thought this one was the
cub of the dam which lay reddening the
snow, and which the men were skinning
before the poor old creature had fairly
gasped her last. though at this season Of
the year the bears are very hungry and
ferocious, often attacking u man. The
hunters are not afraid of the cubs. So
Sailor Boervg, who never yet saw any
thing he was afraid of, young or old, gen.
tie or ferocious set out to drive the sup
posed cub nearer to the dead body of its
mother and the rifles of her slayers. Dis
regarding the warnings of the other men,
Boervlg started without a gun and ap-
preached within a short distance of bruin
before discovering that. instead of a harm
less cub, II was u full grown male bear. 1t
was too late to turn back and run for it,
so the wild Norwegian, as We often call
our fair-haired daredevil OF sailor, ran
at the bear, shouting with all his might and
waving his arms.
Contrary to tradition. the animal re-
FUSED to become frightened and run away.
Instead, he started toward Boervig with
a manifest intention of having that cour-
ageous man for supper. Boervig held his
ground as long as he dared. playing his
strength of his hand warranted But the
bear, showing no signs of weakening, the
sailor took long slide down the side of a
ridge landing up to the neck in a pocket
OF snow. The life of the hunter depended
wholly upon the bears decision as to
whether or not he would follow suit For
tunately he did not press his advantage
but paused at the edge Of the hill, peered
over at the helpless Norwegian founder

ments later, just in the nick of time, for
now Captain Bottelfsen found himself I'M
able to throw the empty shell out of his
gun. and the bear had screwed his courage
to the point of sliding down the snow for
hand to hand scrap with Boervig. The

Cattle Fed ON Raistns.

From the London Daily News.
Horses and cattle feeding upon "raisins
and other dried fruits" are reported by our
consul IN Smyrna to have been, OF late, g
common sight in that part Of the sultan's
dominions. This is owing to the continued
low values of produce i'm the European mar
kets. which, in the case Of many staple
productions of Turkey, have gone from bad
to worse. OF these are raisins. which, prin-
cipally through the action Of the French
tariff, have become so deprecated in value
that unless some new market can be found
the cultivation of the vine in Turkey will,
according to our consul. have to be discon-
tinued

ANTIQUITY or smoking.

Whitaker mentions that several little

that the smoking of some herb or other

tobacco was introduced. DR.. Petrie

The calendar of the First District

Bros. & Co., case are anxious to get
through with the trial Of the case and
get home. Because of this Yesterday
afternoons session of court held as
long as daylight lasted aud long
evening session was held. This morn
ing the jury was charged.
The defense In this case is, first, that
no contract for WORK was entered into
with Mr.. Hawley, that he was merely
banded memorandum o! prices at
which Corey Brothers & Co., would be
willing to contract with him for pro
vided he got back in time, that he
failed 10 get back u time; second, that
if the writing and what was said could
be construed into a contract, he did
not sustain any damage in being re-

prices set forth in the memorandum
rhe jury at 1870 o'clock returned
into court with their verdict finding for
the plaintiff awarding him $5,737. so
damages and $1402 SO interest. The
verdict was agreed to by only eleven Of
the jurors,
After the jury in the Hawley VS..
Corey Bros. & Co., damage case had
Eeen charged, the next matter taken up
was motion or a new trial in the
George Hughes robbery case. Mr..
Hughes, through his attorney sam A.
King, urged that tue Judge erred in his
charge to the jury III failing to explain
explicitly the meaning of the term
"feloDious taking to the jury; urged
also that the law is that the title to
property or money won at cards or
Other gaming does not pass to the
winner, and therefore a man does not
commit robbery or larceny in taking
from the winner any oney that he
may have lost even in a square
gam bling game, not to say in DuncO
or cheating game.
The motion was denied and Hughes
called up for sentence, Then Mi.
King asked for leniency saying that the
defendant had wife AMI child in Yer
nal depending upon him for support.
! The Judge remarked that he did not
see how married man could carouse
in UGH a place as the place in which
Hughes lost his money appeared to be,
and felt that the fact he was in such a
place doing what he did with wife at
home was not pleasing nor an eXtenu-
ating circumstance.
The prisoner wanted the privilege
of asking question, The privilege
being granted he asked the judge if he
would not try to get back his money il
he had lost unfairly The judge re-
piled that under the circumstances in
which Hughes was, he. the Judge
would hide himself and keep as quiet
as possible and do everything IN his
power to prevent knowledge of what
occurred and what he had been doing
from becoming public property.
