A Notable Polar Bear.

The large polar bear which for
twenty-three years had lived in the
menagerie of the Geological Society,
London, died recently after fort
nights illness. The bear was pre-
sented to the society by B. l.. Smith,
who brought it home from an Arctic
voyage in 1871. Frank Buckland then
described 1t as 'about the size of a
Newfoundland dog, but more short
and stumpy, with q splendid shaggy
coat of long, yellow hair" In it's long
life at the gardens, unde. the same
careful management by which another
specimen of the same species was kept
for thirty-six years in the menagerie,
it grew to a size rarely equaled, even
by the largest polar bears killed in the
Arctic regions, and its weight was esti-
mated at three-quarters of ton,
though during its illness it refused
food and became much emaciated.

Oregon's Bold Bandits.

John w. Schultz, President of the
First National Bank of Hillsboro, Ore,
was held up on country road recently
by four masked men. They took him
to clump of brush by the roadside,
and having bound him, secured the
keys to the bank and compelled him to
give them the combination to the vault.
Two of the men started for the bank
while the others remained on guard
over Mr.. Schultz. The two men re-
turned and said they could not getin
the vault and that Mr.. Schultz had given
them the wrong combination. After
considerable parleying and many
threats they started with Mr.. Schultz
Tor town, but when the outskirts of
the town were reached they turned
him loose and disappeared. There is
evidence that the robbers had been to
the bank, but got nothing.

Barrett and Thorne.

Also Played Lending Roles With Booth,
Barrett and Thorne.
(From The 81. Louis CytronicIe.)
One of the most conspicuous figures in tho
Stageland of America to-day is John W. Nor
ton. Born in the seventh ward of New York
City forty-six years ago, the friends Of his
youth were Thomas w. Keene and Frank
Chanfrau. We find Keene star at the age
OF % and Norton in the flower of early man-
hood the leading man for Edwin Booth Mt
the famous Winter Garden Theatre. He
was starred with Lawrence Barrett early in
the 7Os, and alternated the leading roles
with Charles Thorne at the Variety Theatre
in New Orleans. Early in the Centennial
year, in Louisville Norton met our Mary
Anderson, then fair young girl who aspired
for stage tame, took her under his guidance
and, as everybody knows, led her to fame.
Mr.. Norton is now the proprietor of the
Grand Opera House in St. Louis, tho Du
Quesne Theatre, Pttsburg. and one of the
stockholders in the American Extravaganza
Company.
One afternoon early In June he hobbled
into his New York Office on Broadway and
encountered his business manager, George
McmHnuS, VINO nn0 also been q rheumatic SUI
ferer for two years. Norton was surprised
that McManus had discarded his cane. Who
cured you2 he asked. "I cured myself" re-
piled McManus, "with DR.. Williams Pink
Pills."

and as last resort tried the Pink Pills my
self" said Mr.. Norton to Chronicle re-
porter. "You have known me Tor five years
and know how have suffered. Why, dur
ing the summer of 1893 was on my back ut
the Mullnnphy Hospital, In this city, four
weeks. l was put on the old system Of diet
ing, with a view to clearing those acidulous
properties in my blood that medical theorists
say Is the cause of my rheumatism. I left
the Hospital feeling stronger. but the first
damp weather brought with it those excru-
ciating pains in the legs and back. II was
the same old trouble. After sitting down
for stretch OF five minutes the pains
screwed my legs into II knot when arose,
and hobbled ns painfully as ever. After /
had taken my first box OF Pink Pills It struck
me that the pains were less troublesome.

consciously to have faith in the Pink Pills.

sitting at my desk for an hour and the
twinges OF rheumatism that accompanied my
rising were so mild that scarcely noticed
them. During the past two weeks We havo
had much rainy weather In st. Louis Rut
the dampness has not had the slightest effect
in bringing hnck the rheumatism, which [
consider II sufficient and reliable test of the
efficacy OF Pink Pills. l may also say that
the Pink Pills have acted rs n tonic on my
stomach, which thought was well nigh de-
stroyed by the thousand and one alleged
remedies consumed in the past five years"

small articles are utterly ignorant of
