Stealing n Bears Cubs.

1t is perhaps rather amusing to steal 4
pair of whimpering bear cubs and carry
Current Literature, the travellers who
engaged in the pastime found the grief
of the mother too real to allow them to
persist in the fun. They were 4 pro-
fessor and five seniors from an Eastern
college. and the scene of their adventure
was the Seneca Indian Reservation, near
the line between Pennsylvania and New
York.
They came upon couple of little cubs
Snuggled away in the bush, and scarcely
realizing what they did, carried them to
their boat and covered them with a coat
Then they hastily pushed off and pad
died upstream to be farther from the in
furiated mother when she should discover
her loss.
The little fellows kept up a continual
crying, and soon a plunge caused the
travellers to look back, and there was the
old bear putting and tloundering across
in search of her babies.
The almost homan intelligence and So
licitudc she displayed made it no easy
matter to persist il the abduction of the
cubs. Pressing on ahead Of the boat
few rods, she would plunge into the
stream and intercept it, and when evad-
ed and passed, would take to the bank
again and repeat the attempt with in
creased cunning.
She screamed and scolded. wept and
mOaned, her tears flowing freely, her lips
and under jaw trembling. She hid her
face in her paws, and then held them
forth as if beseeching. Some of the
party were for giving up the cubs, but
others held out.
The babies whimpered incessantly, and
the mothers demonstrations of grief
grew more touching. Her anger seemed
to abate, but in it's place came more
paintive tones. She showed no signs
of abandoning the chase.
At last it was decided to surrender the
cubs, and the boat was pulled across to
the bank opposite to the old bear. There
the little ones were gently placed on the
sandy beach, and the party hurried back
to the boat. They were none too soon,
for the instant they lifted her babies in
sight the mother started across.
She went to the cubs, nosed them over,
searching for wounds, and then licked
their glossy fur affectionately, crying
meanwhile like human mother weep
ing for JOY. Then after reproaching the
travellers furiously for a minute. she took
both cubs up by the neck. and holding
them in her great jaws, carried them off
into the woods.

HOW MORM0NS PROPOSE.

And How Mother Feels TO Have Her
Daughter Become a Plural Wife.
Mrs. Hudson describes graphically in
the New Lippincott what she saw and
heard in a Mormon household during a
significant visit from the elders of the
church. Below is an extract:
Three men were ushered into the room.

other two were stout and t1orid and
rather nervous in manner, brothers ap-
