ESCAPED.

Billy Wilson met with an interesting
experience a few days since which
might be appropriately manufactured
into a good story for the average illus,
trated weekly. While in the noun
tains one day last week after wood,
Mr.. Wilson camped out and after pick
citing his horese rolled out his bed un-
der the wagon and was soon in the full
enjoyment of a peaceful "snooze."
Along in the night he became restless
and imagined that someone was dis,
turbing him, and finally rolled out to
see what the trouble was. His curl
qsfty was fully satisfied. Not more than
half a dozen feet away STOOD a big
black bear, his huge form being plainly
discermible in the pale moonlight which
had found Its way through the pine
trees. AS Mr.. Wilson had no gun with
him he concluded to move, and did SO
without the least hesitation. He was
soon on top Of the wagon instead of
under 1t, and from his new location
watched bruin until he finally made of

DRAGGED TO DEATH.

Two weeks ago Harry Hampton. a
young ranchman who lived with his
brother ON a ranch lear Dixon. left
the ranch on horseback. He did not
say where he was going nor how long
he intended being absent. But as he
was in the habit of taking long trips
about the country nothing was then
thought of it. He failed to return.
On Wednesday his brother while he
was riding over a Black mountain cat
tie range. came upon Harry's body with
the clothing torn and the body terribly
bruised. Life was extinct.
All the Indications showed that he
had been thrown from his horse and
dragged for some distance. He had
managed to crawl into the shade OF
some bushes, where death finally over,
took him.

Ludwig Mahr, the little 6-year-old
sen Of John Mahr. died at the county
hospital today, from injuries received
yesterday afternoon by falling under
the wheels of a train Of cars, says the
Sun-Leader. 1t appears that a number
Of small boys have been in the habit OF
jumping on trains. and stealing a ride
out of the yards. Although the boys
have been frequently warned Of the
danger. it has been impossible to keep
them off the trains, unless there is an
officer constantly on hand to watch
them. Marshal Carr has frequently
called the attention Of parents to the
danger. but they usually resent any in
reference on the part of the police OIL
the railroad employees.
1t seems that yesterday the little fel,
low who was injured crawled up one
of the ladders on the side of a freight
car just this side of the Grow creek
eral larger boys and one of them in at,
tempting to get down from the a eth,
err crowded or pushed Ludwig off, who
was below. The little fellow was whirl>
ed beneath the train in some way and
his left leg entirely severed close to hi,
body and a small portion of his right
foot was also cut of. With the excep-
ticn Of his ~10-year-old brother the 9TH
er boys ran away. Little Ludwig wa.
carried to the pump house and Dr..
Rohrbaugh telephoned Tor, who had
him conveyed to the county hospital.
There was little hope Of his recovery
from the first and after lingering along
through the night the little fellow died
early this morning. Mr.. and Mrs. Mahr
who have had the misfortune to lose
seven children have the sympathy Of
the community in their misfortune. The
funeral will be held tomorrow after
noon from the Catholic church.
