Fort Blunder.

Gen. Miles has recently recommended
the terrifying of a number of our sea-
ports and the enlargement of some of
the posts along our frontier. One of
these is Fort Montgomery, that stands
at the outlet of Lake Champlain. The
mentioning of this long-forgotten old fort
recalls queer fact connected with it's
beginning, and long ago forgotten. In
1S41 it was decided to build a large
post at the entrance to Lake Champlain,
and work was begun on Fort Mont
gomery, as it was called. After good
deal of work had been done it was
found that the walls of the fort were
over the lines dividing the United States
from Canada. Work was stopped and
survey made and part of the work was
torn down. Later on it was ascertained
that part of the walls of the post were
still over the dividing line. An agree
ment was made with the English gov
eminent which gave to the United States
that part built upon, and the outline of
the old fort was completed, but as these
mistakes had caused so much trouble
the post was nicknamed Fort Blum
der" Work was stopped on the old
post at the breaking out of the late war,
and since that time it has been under
the charge of an ordnance sergeant.
Soon work will be resumed, and if the
recommendations Of Gen. Miles are car
ried out the old post will be converted
into the largest and most stronglyarmed
post in the country, as it is the intention
of the general to have a large number
of the largest guns made by our ord
nance department to protect the entrance
to the lake, on which, few miles be-
low, is located Plattsburg barracks, one
of the most important posts of our Cana
dian frontier.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

Tins for Visitors.

This is the season, par excellence, OF
country house parties" writes a CORE
spondent in the Westminster Budget,
''and it may, therefore, be as well to
remind visitors to these delectable places
that there is as strict etiquette concern
ing such visits as there is about any one
of the professions. The following are a
few of the clauses of the unwritten law
concerning country house visits, which
every guest should remember:
Never let your visit exceed even by
half day, the time set in your hostess
invitation.
Never take friend or child with YOU
unless they are specially asked.
Do not take great amount of luggage
for a short visit.
Ascertain the hours for meals, and adj
here to them rigidly.
When no special arrangements arc
made for the morning. do not dawdle
about as though lying in wait for your
hostess. Occupy yourself.
Always aid the hostess in any pleasure
project she may inaugurate.
Never accept a general invitation to 4
house party
Do not sit silent at the dinner table
If you are not a good talker, at least
appear interested and amused by what
is going On around you.
On receiving an invitation to a house
party reply at once, and. if you accept
state the day and hour of your arrival.
Never ask to be allowed to postpone
your visit-either accept as asked, or give
it Nd

BEARS IN THE SOUTH.
How Bruin Acts When He Makes u Raid
on the Succulent Corn.

How Bruin Acts When He Makes Raid
on the Succulent Corn.
There are in the farther South three
varieties or kinds of bear. First, there
is the ordinary brown bear, common in
the wilder sections of our country from
the Canada border to the Gulf of Mex
leo. Its usual weight is from 200 to
$50 pounds. Then there is in Louisiana,
Mississippi, and sometimes in the South
ern Arkansas canebrakes and sWamps,
a big, perfectly black bear. 1t is gen
orally marked by white horseshoe on
it's breast This bear will weigh from
400 to $50 pounds. The writer saw one
made for weighing bales of cotton, to
be found at all steamboat landings,
which pulled down the beam at the $50
notch. 1t was killed in the great Atcha-
falaya swamp by an experienced hunter,
who declared that this was not the or
binary bear, but of different family.
Third, and rarest of all Southern bears,
is what all hunters call the red bear.
This one is a long animal, nearly as
slender as panther, and the color of a
red steer 1t can swim like an otter,
and outrun any pack of bear dogs that
ever followed trail. Most hunters
have seen this bear, and differ about it's
family, but whether it and it's congener,
the big black bear, are simply varieties
form by their environments, | am not
naturalist enough to decide. The red
bear lives only in the great, heavily
timbered lowlands, like the Yazoo swamp
of Mississippi and the big Atchafalaya
swamp of louisiana The large black
bear IS common in the Louisiana low
lands back of the big cotton and sugar
plantations. along the Mississippi river
and it's tributaries, in the states men
toned.
do not know of anything more inter-
esting than to watch bear steal green
corn. AS hunters know. bear will al
ways come and go out of a field at the
same place in the fence if not alarmed
or disturbed. The cornfelds in this
country are very large, ranging from 600
to 1000 acres. After climbing up on the
fence and carefully accommodating the
country as far as he can see, if nothing
down on the other side very much as
an old lady would. He will begin, then,
next to the fence, taking two rows,
breaking down the cornstalks right and
left until he has eaten all of the juicy,
milky ears that he wants. Then he
leisurely retraces his steps, always climb
ing over the fence where he came in, and
waddles to his den to take nap. In
the month of August several years ago
the bears became such a nuisance on
Richardson's Hushpuckany plantation
that he was obliged to do something to
save his corn crop. So he employed q
man in the neighborhood who understood
the ways and customs of bears to abate
the nuisance, if possible. He abated il
to some extent by killing thirty bears in
one month and ten or twelve in Septem-
Der, when the corn became too hard tc
be longer tempting .-Correspondent ST.
Louis Globe-Democrat.

Youth Came to Grief.

There is many young man who tries
to pose as a man of the world to whom
money is absolutely no object, bNt who
has to resort to devious schemes to keep
up appearances. Such youths practice
economy without allowing it to he seem
but now and then it becomes visible.
The Philadelphia Record tells Of how
such young man came to grief a few
nights ago. and it was all caused by a
praiseworthy attempt to save a few dol
lars He with a friend had made the
acquaintance of two charming actresses
who accepted an invitation TO sup after
the theater The four repaired to Il well
known restaurant Before ordering the
economical sport excused himself and
went outside and instructed the waiter
if champagne was ordered to bring
American champagne, but to remove the
labels Sure enough. champagne was de-
sired by the actresses. TIE waiter faith
fully carried out his part and the ladies
were delighted with the character OF the
wine and the generosity Of the host. Tn
luckily. few minutes before the restau.
rant was to close another bottle was or
dered. The waiter returned empty hand
