WAS HARD TO KILL.
BEAR SURVIVED LEAD AND A
 PRECIPICE.
Required Chase Up Canyon and
 More Lead - California Fisherman Rudely Interrupted by Big Brown
 Bear with an Ugly Disposition. .

From the San Francisco Chronicle: While fishing last Sunday near the head of Squaw Creek, in Sonoma coun- ty. party of San Francisco and Glow erdale sportsmen were attacked by huge brown bear. Luckily they were fierce charge by some well-directed shots. After long chase through dense underbrush and among pitfalls and precipices the bear was killed. The weight of the brute was 4671a pounds. The members of the party were Steve Giannetoni, Fred D. Spaulding, John F. Duane of San Francisco and George H. Hall and John Arnold of Cloverdale. They had been camping and fishing for three days near the Geysers. Last Sunday they pushed on up toward the headwater of Squaw Creek, and not far from the limits of Lake Mendocino and Sonama counties. In search of like ly spot in which to cast their lines, the fishermen were crossing Running Bird canyon, when one of them caught sight of the great brown creature ad- vaneing toward them. There was no time for the digging of trenches. Quickly they unslung their guns, and each one took careful aim, first select ing tree that could easily be climbed. On numbered the big fellow until he was turned by shot from Spaulding's rifle. A second later George Hall pink ed the plantigrade just behind the left shoulder, whereupon the bear col- lapsed, lost his footing and went tumbling to the bottom of the canyon far below, carrying with him great rocks and bushes uprooted in his swift descent. Even then the bear was not done for. He scrambled to his feet, growing fiercely, and made off toward the head of the canyon, followed by the dog of the party and all five of the men. of whom Hall was the fast est runner. Fully half mile away Hall came upon the quarry, nearly ex- hausted. He was finished by the him. ble Hall at close range. Halls break neck race through the thick chaparral and over the stones had left him al- most devoid of clothing, and this fact, together with his seratched-up face, led the slower members of the party, who soon arrived, to believe that he hat had a hand-to-hand encounter with the bear.

TARANTULA HAWK.
A Wasp That Kills and Eats the Female
 

TarantuIa.
 LOW down on the Rio Grande river" said a man from Texas, where the sands are heated almost red hot with the sun, there grow the biggest centipedes, the biggest rattlesnakes and biggest tarantulas in the world If you can look at one of these taran- tulas when he is pinned fast to board with the naturalist's thin steel pin, and you are sure that he is good and dead and can not spring at you and shoot his poison into you, he forms an in teresting subject to study. They are Notwithstanding, hairy things, with eight legs and eight eyes. Their col ors are dark brown and black. The female tarantula is said to be a tickle spouse and to have summary way, all her own, of getting rid of her con- sort when she is tired of him. She woos and weds all right, assumes the entire care and support of the family. The first matrimonial jar she has sae turns to and kills her husband Not content with killing him, she eats him. The female is the larger and the stronger of the two; they are sim ply gigantic for spiders. have seen those that measured six inches be- tween the stretch of their legs. They are the terror of man and beast. But there is one little animal of the insect family that wicked Mrs. Tarantula stands in as much dread of as a man stands in dread of her, and that is a big wasp that in Texas is known by the name of the tarantula hawk. The tarantula hawk has an exceedingly bad opinion of the tarantula It will ny around over the head of the taran- tuia, make lightning-like dive down, get a good clutch of the monster spl- der, fly away home with him, then all the tarantula hawk family sit down to sup. The tarantula hawk will not hurt men. On the contrary, it is blessing. and you never hear of a western man harmlng one of them. It is said that these Rio Grande cattle rangers are indebted for the tarantula hawk to an old New England professor, who. Whlle down In that country in pursuit of his studies as naturalist. vas stung by one of these monster spiders and nearly died. and would certainly have died had it not been for the whis- ky flask of his guide. In that country where rattlesnakes, tarantulas and centipedes are so big and so plentiful. no raneher leaves his house without his whisky flask. Shortly after the old professor lett that part of the country the raneher received a small pox Of these tafantula hawks with in, structlons what to do with them. He turned the big wasps loose, they in- creased and multiplied, and now they are holding their own against their enemy, the tarantula. @-New York Sun.

Educated Girls Think Longer and Look
 on Marriage Seriously.

Educated Girls Think Longer and Look Marriage Seriously.
 Investigators who have been study ing the college girl versus marriage make the extraordinary assertion that the percentage of marriages among women collegians falls far below that of the less highly educated woman. says the New York Mail and Express. For example, take one college-Bryn Mawr-and the classes of 'S9 and '9i for illustration. Class 'S9-Ten years out of school, averaging now 22-S3 years of age; twenty-six members, eleven married, two studied three years postgraduate to take the degree of Ph. D. Neither of these has mar r1ed. Class '94-Five years out of school, averaging now 27-28 years of age; twenty in class; three have mar Tied; three studied one year extra to take degree of A. M, one stayed three years to take Ph. D. Of seventy. eight women who have held fellowships ten nave married, or l3 per cent; of 161 graduates thirty-hine have married, or A per cent; of 225 girls who did no, stay to take their degrees thirty eight nave married, or IT per cent; of 234 A. B. s, thirty-two married, or il per cent. Very few women. will agree, however, with the conclusions of the Rev. Dr. E. Winchester Donald, made pupIlc In 3 speech delivered at Abbott academy, Andoyer, that the methods or education followed in nearly all the female colleges make pupils unwom- anly and too erudite." They may make them critical and develop their dis cernment and discretion, two aJtrib utes which women greatly need to get along in the world, whether married or single, but in the sensible words or one undergraduates is found the true solution of the lsoblem. She says:
 Graduates leave college at the age of 2l or 22, and are less likely to rush into marriage. They think longer and look at maternity more seriously. While I must admit that there is 8 great difference in the percentage of married women who graduate con- pared to those who do not, I do not think that a girls erudition scares a young man or creates 8 desire to re- main single, but makes a woman more sensible and restrains her from rush. ing unheedingly into wedlock."
