THE TOPEkA'S BEAR STORY
News of n FrishtfuI Death Brought by
That Steamer.

PORT TOWNSEND, Wn., July 22.-The
steamer City of Topeka from Alaska
brings news of q prospector's fatal en-
counter with bear near Berner's bay.
Nike Mcdonald, a miner and two Indian
boys were cruising alongside of a noun
tain in search of quartz bearing rock,
when Mcdonald accidentally stumbled
and fell into a bears lair containing two
young cubs.
The little animals set up a howl which
soon brought the mother to their rescue.
Before Mcdonald could extricate him
self from the perilous situation the mad
dened animal was upon him in all her
fury. The man was unarmed4 having
nothing but pocket knife to defend
himself with and before he could bring
his weapon into use, the bear with one
powerful blow disabled him.
The two Indian boys nearly frightened
to death, started down the hill and plung-
ed into the bay, and swan across to the
opposite shore, where they could view
the conflict with degree of safety. The
bear fairly tore the flesh from the unfor-
tunate man into shreds. The battle last
ed nearly half an hour. Later the boys
returned and found the body in an I'M
recognizable condition.

nearly the whole railroad system of
southern California
They are here, it is believed, for the
purpose of finding out just what is need

abouts to complete the system. So far
over $4,000 900 of railroad construction
work is in sight in this vicinity with al
most $1O,000,00O to be expended in the
near future.
The Southern Pacific has construction
costing about 100000 in view in the
valleys which are tributary to this city.
while the Santa Fe has undertaken ex-
tensions from San Jacinto. Temecula and
other points which will necessitate an
expenditure of about 100000.
The completion of the proposed Los

JOHN n. IVES NINE.
It is Expected to xi-Id $4,000 in Gold a


Year.
The Denver Times of July II contained
an interesting statement concerning

Attorney General John \. Ives and II. A.
Heath are largely interested
The Times says:
SIN California gulch the erection of
the great Dew Drop mill is the center of
interest. Since midi une force of men
have been on the ground and the work of
construction is going forward rapidly.
The completion of this mill will doubt
less mark an era in gold mining in this
part of the state. The mill is built to
treat the ore of the largest, richest and
most permanent vein ever opened in this
part of Colorado. The daily working ca
pacity of the mill will be 90 tons, and it
is estimated that this little mine will fur
nish this amount of ore every day of
the year for the next ten years-1S,0OO
tons year. Placing the value at SO
it Is known to be above $20-the out
put of the mill for single year will
reach $3.50 600 To this amount may be
added 100000 for high grade ore sent
direct to the smelter. a mine that has
the ore. and in a few weeks will have the
equipment to add more than S25O,000 to
the wealth Of the world each year, may
be safely considered an epoch maker.
The commercial value of the mine is
said to be 100000"

Heath a large stockholder. This mine is

FRANK ROGERS DIES.
The StrangerWho Took Laudanum
at the Lime Kiln
COULD NOT BIZ REVIVED

He Died at AIS Sunday nornIng-ET-
forts Are Being Made 20 Identity
Him
The man believed to be Frank Rogers
who took laudanum at the lime kiln Sat-
urday for the purpose of suicide, died at
4:15 Sunday morning. For time it was
thought that chances were favorable for
his recovery, but although he was given
every possible care, he died from hem
orrhage of the pulmonary artery sixteen
hours after he was taken to the
police headquarters At no time did
the physicians entertain the slightest
belief in his recovery. The hope was
confined to the men who nursed him IN
til the last ]. ". Shaffer, John Haisch
and Captain Hunter cared for the man
until his death. Although Rogers was
a stranger to all of them they stayed by
the side of his cot all Saturday afternoon
and night until a. N. Sunday, tanning
the sick man and giving him medicine.
At no time did Rogers become con-
scious enough to speak, although he
opened his eyes several times. To all
appearances respiration was a terrible
task and a man of less muscle and vitali-
tY would have succumbed many hours
before.
An inquest and post norton examina-
ton were held at Stoker's undertaking
establishment Sunday morning. The
jury found a verdict of suicide and pro-
nounced death due directly to internal
hemorrhage, but veutured nothing not
generally known about the case.
Dir. Stoker will keep the body of the
dead man until Friday or Saturday with
the hope that he may be identified He
is making an effort to locate Rogers
family. A paper baggage check was
found in his possession. dated at Buffalo,
n Y, January Is, 1895 The chief of
police at Buffalo has been notified On
a small ticket, such as conductors use,
nue." This address sounds like Chicago,
and Mr. Stoker has addressed letter to
that address, to 'swhom it may concern"
a photographer will take pictures of the
dead man.
Rogers was evidently not 3 tramp. His
clothing was rather cheap, but scrupu-
| lousy clean. He wore a calico shirt that
was new. His underwear was immauu-
late. His hands are as soft as those of a
woman, and his nails show signs of
being kept clean and neatly trim
med He is magnifcently
/ proportional man, being six feet one inch
in height, with broad shoulders and an
almost abnormally large chest While
his physique is that of prize fighter, his
| high forehead, well kept hands, polished
| shoes and clean attire would indicate
/ that he was a man of Intelligence and
| considerable refinement
The accepted theory is that Rogers
was a telegraph operator who had wan
dered long way from friends and fami-
| ~ to find work. Being unsuccessful, he
spent his last % cents for the laudanum
with which he took his own life.
Police Captain Gardner does not be-
lieve that Frank Rogers or Rogern is the
mans right name. His theory is that any
man who would take SO much paius to
conceal hs identity would not leave such
an avenue to Identification open as a

against the production of "The Durrant
Case" a play based upon Emanuel
church murders. In preaching on the
subject last evening. Rev. w. W. Case,
of the Howard street Methodist church,
said:
"The dramatization Of the horrible
murders at the Emanuel Baptist church
should be condemned. Theatres and
theatre managers who put such a play
on the boards do more to corrupt the
youth of the city than all the hell holes
of iniquisy that flourish so abundantly in
San Francisco Such plays tend to culti-
vate a morbid spirit and lead young men
