BRUIN DESERVED BETTER FATE
Rode Safely on Cowcatcher Only to
BE Slain on Reaching Town.


Not long ago as a railroad train was
passing through Wilder's cut, near Oh
cut, Pa, the engineer was astonished
to see a black bear coming around a
sharp curve. The cut is so narrow
that there is hardly room for a man
to stand aside and allow an engine to
pass without striking him. Bruin was
more amazed than the engineer. In
stead of stepping aside, he reared on
his launches and awaited events. The
locomotive running less than
twenty miles an hour. for the place
is a dangerous one. Upon seeing the
bear the engineer shut off steam and
applied the brakes, but the distance
was too short to escape an accident
The cowcatcher slipped under the hind
legs of the brute and lifted him off the
ground. Thinking all the trouble was
over, the engineer put on steam once
more, while the fireman climbed out Of
the cab window and stole along the
guard rail to find out what had become
Of the bear He was there, clasping
the cowcatcher, the lower part of his
body just grazing the ground and his
head almost reaching the bottom Of the
headlight. He seemed to understand
that the only thing he could do was to
hold fast, and he did so during the
run to the next station, ten miles dis
tant The station agent was standing
at the door as the train approached.
Tho Eicht Of full hnu~ N tha
cowcatcher fairly took away his
breath. AS soon as the engine came
to standstill bruin slipped from his
perch and made a break for freedom.
This took him straight toward the
agent, who dashed through the door,
slammed it shut, leaped through the
rear door and went up the street at
furious rate, calling out, Bear, bear!
Somebody get a gun" Soon the town
was in turmoil yelling crowd fol-
lowing in hot pursuit Of the bear, some
of the boys pelting him with stones.
Suddenly a big shepherd dog bounced
cut Of a yard and dashed after the
bear. Druin paused but a minute or
two but when he passed on the dog
had no future interest in the proceed
ings. At the street corner lawyer
carrying a d0pble-barreled gun ne "l Inf
ter turned down the nearest alley. The
crowd increased and encircled the
frightened animal, making escape i'm
possible. Finding himself at bay, bruin
backed up against a barn, rearing on
his launches. The lawyer Gent two
bullets into the bear, whereupon the
wounded animal charged at the crowd.
One urchin fell, was trampled upon
and had Il leg broken. The lawyer
slipped another bullet into his gun and
sent the shot through bruins head
and finished him. BY this time tae en-
gineer and fireman recalled the fact
that a trainload of passengers were
waiting at the station, and hurried
back and resumed their official duties
after a bear hunt of about twenty
minutes.
