HIS FIFTIETH BIRTHDAY.
Celebrated By Captain Henry D. Cowles
 Last Night.

The fiftieth birthday of Captain Henry D. Cowles, the well known chief of the local detective bureau, was cele- brated last evening by an enjoyable birthday party given in honor of the occasion at the, captains home at No. 31 Daggett street. The guests were most hospitably received by Captain and Mrs. Cowles. About ninety friends were present to congratulate him on the completion of half century and all re- marked upon his youthful appearance for man of his years. Few persons / would think him to be over forty at the most.
 The evening was pleasantly passed with music, singing and sociable con- verse and during the latter part of the evening the young people enjoyed them- selves by dancing in the basement, which was prettily decorated with red, white and blue bunting. Among the pleasant features of the evening were the piano playing by Harry Tighe, son of Sergeant William Fl. Tighe, and by' Miss Grace Healy. A cake walk by Miss Anna Vogevitz and Harry Hall was also applauded by the company, while a song by ex-Pollce Commissioner Daniel s. Gilhuly pleased all.
 A fine supper was served in the base ment where a long table was loaded with the choicest of viands. The collec- tion was arranged by Mrs. Cowles, Mrs. Byers and Mrs. Chamberlain, whose skill in that direction was highly commended by those present
 Captain Cowles was the recipient of a number of handsome birthday gifts from his friends. Of these perhaps the handsomest was a solid silver tea set from Director Troup of the department of public works, Thomas H. Sullivan, Superintendent Wrinn of the police de- partment, Clerk F. A. Southworth and other friends. This was presented by MT. Troup in a neatly turned speech, and Captain Cowles made an appropri ate response Other gifts were: A Mor- ris chair from the police commissioners, a beautiful picture from Mark A. w. McGrath, two handsome Steins, one from Miss Helen Wrinn and the other from the Misses Healy; boxes of cigars from Chief Reilly of Wallingford, Dan iel S. Gilhuly, Attorney Sanford B. Mar tin and from his friends among the newspaper men, fifty carnations from his niece, Miss Lizzie Cowes; fifty beau- tiful roses from Colonel George D. Post, president of the c. E. Longley compa- ny; a rare plant from S. H. Moore, the florist; a box of cigars from Sergeant Tighe. a smoking set from Harry Tighe, also a smoking set from Carl Miller, a pair of alligator slippers from his broth CT, George w.

GENERAL LAWTON AND FATAL
 ISM

J.H. Wainwright, of New York, spent Sunday in this city. and in the course of conversation told an Interesting sto ry of the late General Lawton. T met the general for the first time in my life at Washington last winter" he said "A friend who is in the war department was showing me through the building, and in the ante-room of Assistant Sec retary Meiklejohn's offices we found General Lawton, who, if I remember rightly, had come to the capital to join President Mckinley in flying trip to the south. I was impressed at once by his immense stature and soldierly ap- pearance, and after was introduced I told him that I had a brother in his old regiment, the Ninth Indiana. That interested him, and he became cordial immediately. We chatted for at least half an hour talking about Cuba and the Philippines, and one part of our conversation returns to me with sad and peculiar significance. I had remarked, half jestingly, that he offered a very conspicuous target for bullet, and he laughed and replied that the right bull let would always find it's mark, no mat ter how small. Then he related an in- cident which occurred during the civil war In one of the engagements of his command, I can't remember now whether he mentioned the place piece of shell hit the ground near where a soldier was standing, and scared him so badly that he jumped straight up into the air like a rabbit. As he did so a. Mimic ball knocked off the crown of his hno hat 1a nrti pt11 q ,. bullet intended to kill him. said Gene ral Lawton, and he actually had to jump after it. He spoke in light, off, hand fashion, but there was an under tone of seriousness in his voice. and I inferred from the story that he was, like most veteran soldiers.- a pro- nounced fatalist. ."-New Orleans Times Democrat. .s

and get the shot after the dogs have closed in and fought him until he has either stopped or slowed down to a walk broken with fighting pauses. Nat urally at this work the native is superb or to the stranger. Captain Bobo off, ten told me that he would give a stran- ger his whole pack of dogs and bet him that he would not kill a bear within a week or a month without some one to show him the country. Even among the local hunters the luck of the shot does not always come to the strongest or the most cunning, so that the ele- ment of chance lends zest to the sport, The glory is to distance the other riders and come up with the dogs, There IS no glory in shooting the bear itself, for the operation is absolutely devoid Of all danger. I rode for five days before I got a shot with the Bobo pack. The bear after running all the afternoon had been treed by the dog. I shot him out of the tree in the twilight and felt guilty of doing mean and unsports- manlike trick. Indeed, I do not think firearms should be used at all in this sort of bear hunting. A short spear would be better than the hunting knife which some of the bolder hunters use.
 When the strike dogs open and the balance of the pack of forty or ffty break in after, yelling like band or demons, the roaring music is indescrib- ably thrilling. That is your sport. You ride and bruise your legs, and finally murder poor, fat, black cow ard WalloWiug in a sea of dogs. You forget this, or are ashamed of it, but you do not forget how your shoulder blades crept and your hair stood up when the bear pack opened on the trail. Chicago Record.

She Did Not Regard the Proposal as Being Very Important.
 He adored her and she had engage ments ahead for all social functions in sight and what was to follow.
 Therefore she was a very busy young woman It would have made her very unhappy to have been idle under the circumstances.
 He was more than anxious to have moment with her, In order to tell her wbAt was In his heart, notwithstanding she partially knew by reason of his per sstent attentions and the few words he had been able to fling at her during the rush.
 The desire to speak to her definitely grew upon him, however, until he could resist no longer, and he thrust himself upon her one evening at function Of some sort, where among so many peo- pie he thought to find obscurity for few brief moments.
 T beg vc, pardon" he said to her anxiousl- earnestly, pleadingly. but I have something to say to you and l want to see you alone for just min ute'
 'I am very sorry" she replied, "but MT. Smithlets is waiting for me there by the door,
 "Let him wait" he said desperately, This engagement is for an hour mine Is for all time"
 "Oh," she answered, lis that it? Very well just consider that have said yes Now run along like good boy and come around Sunday after noon. I'm to have few people in be- tween four and six"
 Then his soul was filled with joy un- utterable, and with a glad smile he moved through the glddy throng, and his heart was at rest.-Detroit Free pracc
