his sacred person. Not being armed, he
ran away. There Is not n man, woman or

CURED to the philosophers that they must
either believe the story Or find the bear
and secure u denial, and as there was no
hope of the latter they adopted middle
course-that is, times being dull and Sam
complaining Of his surroundings, they
took him out and hung and buried him.
Word was kindly sent to us, and we were
there an hour In advance. We had a long
talk with Sam, and, though he insisted
on the truth of his bear story, he admitted
that the middle course was the one to take

thanked the crowd in advance for the
trouble to be taken on his account and
his remarks at the last moment were
timely and well chosen. He may not have
luarreled and shot his companion, but he
has lost nothing by being hung, as he was
cross eyed and had harclip, and there
was little in life for him. NJ QUAD.
