saw a dark shadow on a sheet near by,
and warm breath blew upon her
cheek.
She turned and saw a bear balancing
himself on his hind legs. She uttered
a piercing shrek, and the bear dropped
TO all tours and started in pursuit. Mrs.
Shelter reached the house and closed
the door behind her.
Around the corner Of the house
came "Dick," the brindie bulldog, and
from the rear sped "Bill," the goat.
That bear felt violent blow. He
turned TO avenge tic indignity. Sharp
teeth fastened in his throat and dog
swung to and fro like pendulum. The
bear brushed his paws down the dogs
sides and shook him Off.
Then he saw before him white and
black object, which lowered its head.
There was a collision, and the bear,
dazed, put paw feebIy 10 his head.
Canine teeth seized him by the left hind
leg. The bear swung about and landed
a blow on the dogs head. He exposed
an expanse OF neck at the same time,
and upon this weak point fell a blow
from hard horns and harder head
Mrs. Shelter from a window saw a
wild, fierce fray. There was the goat
backing and charging with the preci
sion Of battleship in action. The dog,
with his head covered with crimson
marks Of the fight and with his sides
badly SCARED, fought like canine
devil
The bear was in the act of
crumpling up the dog as patrons of

A Good Example.

At the beginning OF 1898 Jacksboro,
Tea rs, was the town 1t bad been for
twenty years, says the Manufacturers
Record. Early in 1898 the people of
the town accepted q proposition for the
building by the Rock Island Railway
Co. of branch line TO Jacksboro. Six
months later the trains were enterio g
the town. The coming of the railroad
has been marked by great activity and
development in Jacksboro, which are
reviewed by the Gazette of that town.
Briefly SUN married., the improvements
during the year include the COMP elton
of the national bank, four-story- flour
ing mill and freight and passenger
depot, and the enlargement and re-
modelling of old residences and the
building of new ores. There are in
course of erection an oil mill costing
$37 900, an ice factory and hotel, and
plans have been submitted for several
large business houses. Here Is a dis
tinct illustration of the advantages
accruing to q community from CO.
operation between its citizens and q
railroad, which should be carefully
conside red by citizens of Denison.-

The JdCk-ASS Route.

Quite q unique mode of transporta-
ton is now in operation near Stanton
street bridge. The rolling stock con-
sists of three burros. The general
manager and his subordiuates are
composed of several young Mexicans
The route is. only 35 feet via the
Rio Grapde river. There is no psrti-
cular time set for the arrival and
departure of the jack-sss water route.
Just jog along, pay two centavos, and
you travel all the way from the United
States to Mexico. It is amusing to
see the mode of conveyance. The
water being nearly four feet deep, al.
most reaching the saddle of the ami
NAL, one is obliged to hang on for dear
life and if the burro is not in good
humor the traveller must suffer the
consequences. This company reserves
the right of way and runs without or
ders. Business ia at stand still the
past few days but the general manager
and his staff can always be found at
their headquarters on the bank of the
Rio Grande, ''far away" gaming their
surplus and basking in the sunshine
waiting for business to pick up.

HEARTLEsS BRAKEMAN,
A Tramp Brutality Injured BY a
Brakeman on the Los Angeles
Division of the Southern PaCl-

TIC.
Brakemen, like all other men, have
hearts but q few don't know how tC
use them. There is scarcely q day
pass that the papers do not contain an
account of someone being injured by
the obstinacy and cruelty practiced by
brakemen. 1t Is true that sometimes
they have very vicious characters to
deal with, but the use of little dis
cression under such conditions will end
the matter much more satisfactory to
all concerned. The following taken
frum the Los Angeles Times is one OF
the many cases repOrtc lately:
Jose Martinez, Mexican tramp,
applied at the Receiving hospital yes.
terday morning for n edical treatment.
He was in q pitiful condition, and told
story of cold blooded brutality on
the part of the Southern Pacific brake
man.
martinez says he was beating his
wac thrown bodily from q car by one OF
the brakemen while the train was in
motion. When be struck the ground
the lower part of his groin came into
contact with some hard object, which
cause such excruciating agony that
he became unconscious. He lay in
that condition in the bushes for q day
and then regained consciousness, but it
was another day before he could move.
Then he managed to get to q station
not far away, where his injuries we're
temporarily dressed and he was sent to
this city.
IAN examination at the Receiving
hospital yesterday showed that Mar
tinez had been terribly injured, and
that he had not exaggerated his condi-
tion. He was sent to the county hos
pital, where everything possible is
being done for his relief, but It is quite
probable that a surgical operation will
be necessary <i<

tha Grenada boys approached them in
tear and trembling, but there was
,oncbt to fear. They were the easiest
rirls who ever came down the pike in
hloomers. They may be able to play
hol, when the spirit moves them Alright,
Init the fact shows very plainly that
thew are out for the coin, and in this
thevare succeeding beyond the average
dream of avarice. The manager inform
aa a SENTINEL reporter that the team
cleared up $4,000 in cold cash for him
last year, but yet he has not managed
to form trust. III &c.,
The game of the bloomin' blooners
and the Grenada braves was witnessed
hv large crowd, the gate receipts at
q cents q head amounting to some-
thing over a hundred dollars. Many
ladies' we're present to watch the girls
disnort themselves on the dusty
diamond. 1t WAS we'll behaved crowd
and the players conducted themselves
in perfectly proper manner.
Our friend, Mr.. Ed Peacock, umpired
the game, and it was plain to the crowd
that he was ratified as he called ''strike
one'' on the first fairy who picked up
the bat He was ready to run at the
srst sign of trouble that might arise
from his decisions,bnt everything went
AS smooth as q narriage he'll.
Seven innings were played, at the
end of which the score stood 2l to II in
favor of Grenada. The girls put forth
m effort and their only desire seemed
10 have tho game with as quickly
os nos.ible. We would advise other
towns along the road to have the AZ
cresation put up some surety that they
play oall before they are allowed to
handle the shekels Of the dear people.
In passing, the SENTINEL would like
to remark that Grenada has the
material for first-class ball team and
the boys should get togc'heraod give US
a few good exhibitions OF the
rat,onal game before the Summer wanrs.
Water Valley, Canton, West Point,

towns in the State have teams which

Georgia's chief executive has many
good qualities, and in addition to his
superb robust constitution the governor
also possesses what Is coveted by many
unfortunates-he has a good appetite.
Like any ordinary mortal, however, he
once suffered from indigestion, with
all the distressing conditions which II
produces, But he has found an unfail'
ing remedy, however and said recently:
"For many year my digestion was bud
but the occasional use OF bottle OF s.
s. S. has entirely cured me OF this ma
laday, and I now eat with impunlty
any thing set before me-"
Governor Gambler has also declared
s. S. s. to be the finest tonic and blood
purifier made. He has used 1t every
spring for the past fifteen years.

says:
Senator Greaves did his best, but
he was no match for the cool, ornate,
polished and solid utterances OF Mr..
Lee, who acquitted himself in a
modest, lactful, tasteful, reasonable
manner and fully met the expecta..
tions OF his friends. In the course OF
his remarks, which we're chaste, ur-.

legitimate and genteel criticism, he 50
