WAS HARD TO KILL.
BEAR SURVIVED LEAD AND A
 PRECtPICE.
Required 8 Chase Up Canyon and
 More Lead California Fisherman
 Rudely Interrupted by Big Brown Bear with an Ugly Disposition.

From the San Francisco Chronicles: While fishing last Sunday near the head of Squaw Creek, in Sonoma coun- ty, a party of San Francisco and Clov- erdale sportsmen were attacked by a huge brown bear. Luckily they were armed, and soon halted bruin in his fierce charge by some well-directed shots. After a long chase through dense underbrush and among pitfalls and precipices the bear was killed. fha weight of the brute was 46712 pounds. The members of the party were Steve Giannetoni, Fred D. Spaulding, John 2. Duane of San Francisco and George H. Hall and John Arnold of Cloyerdale. 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 air2, first select ing a tree that could easily be climbed, On numbered the big fellow until he was turned by shot from Spaulding's rife. A second later George Hall pink ed the plantigrade just behind the left shoulder, whereupon the hear coI- 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 a 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 scratched-up face, led the slower members of the party, who soon arrived. to believe that he has had a hand-to-hand encounter with the bear.

GOLD FOR THE BLIND.
Each sightless Person in New York Re
 cefyes $50.

Each sightless Person in New York Re
 ceiyes $50.
 When the palms of almost 1,5oo blind men, women and children were crossed with $50 each yesterday they did not need eyes to see and know it was in gold, two $20 pieces and one $10 piece. It was the annual tribute from the city in pity for their misfortune, and at the same time had a practical side in that it aided in preventing the recipients from becoming public charg- es. One would have thought the world had lost it's sight and doubled its own vision to see TOO blind persons feel their way to the office of Superinten- dent Blair of the Outdoor Poor at Twenty-sixth street and East river. They came from all directions and in many ways, those who were able walk ing alore and those who were not, led by children, whose faces had grown patient under the weight ot their dread responsibility. And always and every where was the steady pat, pat, pat or TOO canes on the sidewalk, those who were led taking the center of the walk, and those who were alone being guided just as surely by the curb. The only difference was that the blind attended by children gave forward. sweeping motion to the canes, while those along the curb had cultivated an inward swing, so as to detect any post in the way of their haiting steps. But all were in utter darkness. Only the warmth on the lids of their sightless eyes told them the sun was shining on their upturned, expressionless faces. City corporations must have souls, after all, to have done such a good deed as that of yesterday. and as this city has done for years in annually distributing $75.000 to the blind. It must have been a soul that did not even forget the little detail of paying them ill gold, two $20 pieces and one S10 piece, so that they could know what they were, and need not be re- minded anew of a misfortune ever present in their inner thoughts. Not satisfied with paying those who were able to make their way to the office, the weak and sick of the sightless were hunted up at their homes all over the city. And there must have been a soul behind it when the corporation ordered that all be paid the fuil amount freely and without question, and on the same day-the only really pleasant day to them iu all u 2 365.

4 Hymn as 2 Ranauet.


 Under the relaxt discipline inst before the return CT sEg troops who fought in the civil War. there wag no lack of merrymaking among the con- rades of the hard campaig7. Squads Of them at the different posts met in military quarters and frolieked hali the Eighs away. It was at one of these assemblies of the officers of an army corps domici1ed in a Southern capital that the following incident occurred: They had come toget for "a grand old reunion high" to celebrate their victories, swap stories" and 7rink each others healths before sepa4 ating to go back to Gods country as they called the North. The supply of liquors was plentiful, the supper-room was full of the smoke of burning cigars; the stories kept the laughter loud, and the songs called out every voice in enthu- siastic chorus. The best vocalist in the company, a fine young tenor, had beeh repeatedly appealed to foI a solo. but although he seemed quite as joytal as the rest, it was far along in the festivities before he could be induced to sing.
 Come. Harry. pipe up, old fellow; give ns one of your best" and the importantly became too strong to re- sist
 That an undertide of different emo- lion had sbeen gathering power within him, and that Harry" was not the only person in the room who had been hiding sober thought, was very soon evident.
 Well, boys, I'll sing for you" he said at last.
 The noise ceased at once, for most of those present had many times en. 5oyed his charEing voice.
