Her Presence of Mind.


The New York Sun is still adding
to is stock Of bear stories. One OF
the latest comes from Potter county,
Pa, and by way OF variety IL Is n girl
who plays the principal part in the
uctiou.
Louise Berger, the 16-year-old daugh-
ter OF Michael Berger, the owner of n
small farm in the Kettle creek region,
went TO the woods to drive the cows TO
the shed, accompanied by small shop
herd dog.
Soon after entering the woods, about
half mile from the farmhouse, the
dog began to- act queerly and per-
sisted in keeping at the girls heels, as
L afraid. While the girl scolded the
dog she was Mortified 10 see a monster
black bear shombling toward her. She
had heard her father tell about climb
ing trees 20 escape bears, and now she
Skinned up smooth beech with the
agility Of a boy. The dog ran home
bowling, chased short distance by the
bear.
When the bear gave up the chase he
came back TO the tree where the girl
was captive. Her red hood had fallen
on the ground The bear picked IL UP.
The girl screamed. and the bear raised
his huge form against the tree as high
ms his legs would push him, but even
then he was nearly ten feet from her.
The girls screams had been heard Mt
/ the farmhouse down In the ravine, and
out came her father on the double
/ quick.
when he reached the edge OF the
wood Mr.. Berger saw the red dress OF
his daughter in the beech tree. The
girl called TO him 10 be quick. The
bear wheeled toward the advancing
farmer. gazed AZ him and his rifle just
an instant ard then started on a run
for the thick woods.
But the big fellow was too fat e
make good time, and Berger soon go
within gunshot. Two bullets from tbs
Winchester finished the brute. Their
Louise slid down the tree and hurried
home TO tell her brother George q
40 TO the woods and help his father
bring home the bear.

of milk obtained was greater with
molasses than without, with one
special cow the increase being ten
quarts per day. The results OF
these experiments led DR.. Holl-
rung to conclude that further ex-
periments should be made, and
thus lead to the more general uti-
lization of this neglected residuum
of the sugar industry.
With us in Louisiana and in
tropical countries general molas-
ses as stock feed is still more va
liable than in Europe, from the
fact that our molasses is not i'm
paired by the large amount OF
alkaline salts that the beet molas-
ses contains.

After feeding with molasses there
was very little change in the total

Democrats Still Disintegra-
ting.


Dohy AecAAAs
Clevelandism, like the old man
of the sea, still clings to the De-
mocratic party and as an organiza-
ton of affirmative force it has
been destroyed.
Evidences of this moribund con-
dition have shown themselves on
divers previous occasions, but that
presented in the debate in the
House at Washington yesterday
seems to indicate the last symp-
ton which would precede the final
dissolution of the Democratic par
ty.
A caucus of the House Demo-
Gratis determined by q decisive ma
jority to permit the Republican
majority to legislate without par
liameptary obstruction. The mi
nority, however, were not content
to let the matter rest upon that
determination, and the dissen-
sions in the party we're brought
into the House yesterday, to the
edi6cation of the country at large.
Mr.. Baily, the caucus chosen
leader, denounced in bitter terms
newspaper criticism of his con-
duct in refusing to delay the legis-
lation or to antagonize the policy
of Republican conduct therein.
This the Democratic caucus had
determined should be the Demo-
cratic policy and in reply to his
statement Mr.. DeArmand, of Mis-
souri,, replied, declaring that the
verdict of the caucus had been an
Endorsement of his policy of fight
ing the Republicans at all points.
Mr.. Bailey during his remarks,
said:
Il am a partisan, but I had "a
Their have Republican prosperity
than Democrocratic depression"
1t is obvious from the display
of Democratic stupidity that the
experience of the past four years
has been wasted upon them. In
fact, the debate on the Dingley
tariff bill showed that unenviable
condition. The speeches made in
opposition were all on free trade
lines, and were without exception
the same mastery efforts" deli
vered in support of that measure
of calamity, the Wilson bill.
An intelligent and active minor
ity is necessary in representative
government, but the Democratic
organization does not accomplish
that end. 1t has degenerated into
a mob of disconnected factionists
and is powerless for any purpose,
except II be for evil.
