BRUINS HOLIDAY.

Some People who Didn't.

The more that is known concerning a
bears holiday the more varied do his tai
cntS appear. In Il little Pennsylvania
town the other day Il dancing bear was
master of the situation Tor several anX-
ious hours. He arrived in the place with
his owner, and the harvest of pennies
and nickclS they received warranted the
latter i'll INDUCING i'll Il bibulouS cclcbra
ton i'll convenient saloon. The bear
joined his master i'll the carouSC; but,
while the master showed the effects of
the liquor by falling into II stupor, the
bear started out to see the sights. He
took up the entire sidewalk on his way
and part of the street, and when the vii
laSc constable. iii the exercise of his au-
thority, ordered him to dispense he smotc
the officer gricvously on his official check
and bit Il choice mouthfu out of his ot-
cial arm.
The barber is the wit of the town, and
when he SAW the bear come zigzagging
down the road with the conStabc'S sleeve
dangling from front tooth he was SO
unwiSc as TO observe that trouble ap-
pcarcd to be brun. The bear heard the
remark and dashed across the street. The
funny barber had barely time to tumble
ont of his chair and rush into h shop,
tilnginG the door shut behind him. The
bear, upon discovering that he wasn't

ing to climb the striped pole. lie only
succeeded in bringing it down and sending
its upper portion with a crash through
the BARRIERS window.
Finding that the barber was determined
to take n holiday, the bear sauntcrcd
down to the postoilice. The postmaster
saw him coming and without regard to
the duty he owes the public slammed the
front door shut and double locked it.
The bear pulled off the knob of the
door and ripped down the '.pllicc hours"
sign. Then he remarked to the covering
postmaster, in bear language, that he

postmaster general.
The postmaster happily bcthought him
self of the telephone and called up the
sheriff and asked hil. to come right over
from the county seat with Il posse.
When the sheriff arrived, he discovered
that the houses In the town were all
closed and barricaded, and that the only
live object in sight was large bear sit

Judoe BAH. However, Had Good
Word to Say for Man Who
serves Him Milk.

Judge Ball was compelled in city court
Yesterday to fine his own milknan, Lem
uel 0. Porter. The charge preferred
against him by Milk Inspector McEvilly
was having in his possession for sale
milk whicn did not measure up to the
required standard.
Mr. Porter said the milk he had been
buying had been giving satisfaction and
he thought it was up to the standard.
He had frequently tested it and it never
iell:ehort. Judge Ball put in a good
word for Porter by saying that he felt
satisfied that Porter's intentions were
good, as he had been taking milk from
him for several years and had always
found il to be satisfactory.
Inspector McEvilly testified that he
took sample ON July Goth and after
testing it took it to DR.. Frank Rool
Smith for analysis.
| DR.. Smith took the stand and testified
that the analysis showed 10 0S per cent
Of solids, whereas tine law required II 81
per cent There was no evidence of tn
milk having been aduterated.

ordinance the minimum fine So was i'm
