Bear. In British Columbia.

Bears-b,ack. brown and grizzly-are
distributed throughout the entire coun-
try, and may be met at any moment;
but to the hunter that moment seldom
arrives, although, curiously enough, he
appears. according to report, to be the
only class cf man who dare venture
cut without being attacked or chased
by an infuriatel grizzly. Certainly,
considering how plentiful bears are,
they have a surprising knack CT keep
ing out of sight. There exists in Alas
ka huge bear. larger far than any
grizzly. which also probably inkabits
the western boundary of British CO.
lumbia. but which has not yet been sr5-
ficiently studied for classification; also
another, still rarer and, up to the pres
ent, almost unknown, will probably
prove distinct variety; it carries the
most beautiful slate and white co,ored
fur, and is about the size of a black
bear.-Saturday Review.

TRO0PS
win Probably Be- SAINT to General
Merftl Moral Obligation to Pro.
icct tho Peopls Of Manila From the
Insurgents.

Washington, August 2.-The war de-
partment officials do not admit inten-
ton of reinforcing Gen. Merritt $
forces at CRvite, but there Is reason
to believe that troops In eastern camps
who desire active service will find the
opportunity.
1t is believed to be necessary to fur
nish to Gen. Merritt a larger force. 1t
is realized that 10000 soldiers can
scarcely be expected to maintain Uni
ted States possession and proetct the
inhabitants.
The officials here make no conceal
ment Of their apprehension Of serious
trouble to follow the execution of our
programme in regard to the Philippines.
The government feels that 1t has as
sumed a moral obligation towards not
only the foreign residents at Manila.
but towards the unprotected OF the
Spanish community, women, children,
nuns and priests. Therefore when in
timation came that the insurgents We're
threatening the lives of some helpless
monks, orders were sent to the Amer
lean military commander to look into
the matter and to act in the interest OF
civilization and humanity. AS, accord
ing to report, the. insurgents have
shown particular hostility towards the
monks, it is a reasonable expectation
that before long collision will occur
between themselves and the American
troops if the latter undertake to inter-
fere in the execution of the vengeance
of the Insurgents.

Reasons for Believing Spanish 0ppo.

of Porto Rico viii Be Merely
Formal.

Washington, D. c., August RE
ports from Porto Rico, which cannot be
made public by the War Department,
show that resistance by the Spanish
Miles may achieve an almost bloodless
victory. 1t has been suggested that
the Madrid government, realizing the
impendency of peace and the lack OF
loyalty among the mass of Porto Ri
cans. have allowed the Spanish garri-
son CT the island to understand that
they are not expected to sacrifice their
lives in useless resistance, so that all
that is to be expected is rather for
NAL opposition to the progress of Gen.
eral Miles.
