BIG BEARS IN ALASKA.
Beants That Are as Rfercs as TIA
Gxa@~zy and ms Swift q. the
Horse

DIR. William Lord Smith, of Worces
ter and Boston. lately returned from
Kadiak island. on the Alaskan coast,
where he passed several months hunt
ing the big bears of the island He
brought home with him he skin of
6o0-pouDder, reports Worcester
(Mass.) correspondent of the Chicago
Inter Ocean.
The Kadiak bear is the largest mem
Der of the bear family. According to
Dr. Smith. ii is not grizzly, although
it closely resembles the silver tip of the
Rocky mountains. 1t has the grizzly
head. 1t has been reputed to grow to
enormous size, even TO a weight of
1000 pounds. but DIR. Smith was un-
able TO get evidence Rhat il exceeded
1.200 pounds. even in autumn, when
very fat, ready for it's long winter
sleep. The fur, when in its prime, is
a rich brown and very thick. but in the
spring and early summer it is rather
gray than brown
The Worcester hunter was accom-
panied by Boston friend during his
first few weeks on Eadiak Their first
days hunting brought them a 625-
pound bear. which fell to the rife of
the Boston man. the two having tossed
coin for the shot. The only other
bear they got was shot by DIR. Smith
on almost the last day of his hunting
in the middle of July, more than two
months after his arrival on the island
1t was about 1890 p. m, which was
dusk in that la titude. The doctor and
native had followed the b. asst, and
got within 30 feet of her. She was a
mother with a cub along, and was fish
ing in the shallow waters of little
river.
The Kadiak bear is fish eater. and
this particular bear was in clover, for
the dog salmon were running up
stream in water only few inches deep.
She reached with ner great paw, armed
with claws more than three inches
long. and with a quick sweep, tossed
the salmon to the shore, where she
killed and ate them.
Dr. Smith believes that the Kadiak
bear almost equals the grizzly in fierce
ness. but he holds that neither bear is
nearly so dangerous TO hunt as their
reputation would Indicate Their eye
sight is poor. and they seldom see the
hunter, and. unless wounded and cor
nered, they prefer TO run rather than
fight. The Kadiak bear has the speed
of fast horse. DIR. Sni i.aS Iunted
big game in Africa and has killed. ion,
elephant, and rhinoceros. hunting on
foot. but he has never seen any Wild
beast travel with such speed as the
Kadiak bear. AS for the danger, he
would much prefer TO shoot Kadiak
bear than any of the big cats. so far
as the risk of life is concerned.

Amu.lnK sIlp Of the ronxue.

\ Women are sometimes accused of
lacking a sense of humor, but a casual
slip of the tongue on Thursday while
the duke of Argyle was addressing a
drawing-room meeting at Lowther
lodge was instantly and warmly APP
preciated.
The duke had said that after the
Boer war it would be an excellent
thing if Boer and. Briton were to in
termarry.
1--WE want the Briton TO marry a
Boer girl" said the duke. ~but we
want him to have an English wife as
we'll"
A peal of laughter which greeted
this ambiguous declaration led the
duke to correct himself. which. blush
ing, he did. enoeavoring to explain in
great haste what he meant. The ex-
PLANTATION intensified the merriment.
Ii is the joke of the season, and won't
be forgotten for long time.

E~szf Expenditures of That Country
Are Rapidly BuryfnR Her Under
Tremendous Debt.

The naval expenditure of France
for 1902 is officially proposed to be
S62, 10000, which at first sight seems
to be 100000 less than in 1901, but
If it is taken into account that the
cost of maintaining the marine in
fantry and artillery, amounting to
about S5,400,O00, has been trans
ferred from the navy to the minis
tries OF war and the colonies, it is
found that the money that France in
tends to spend upon the navy during
1902 is in reality $1,000. 900 in excess
of the naval expenses of the current
year.
1t Is a matter of serious considera-
ton for the French whether they are
not spending upon their navy more
than their national resources war
rant, says the Paris correspondent of
the New York Tribune. France has
now piled up a debt involving an an
nual charge for interest of nearly
100000, 900, or, in other words, every
man, woman and child in France has
now to pay five dollars per annum for
interest on the national debt. The
army costs the country 1892, oOO, 900 a
year, and the total expenditure for
1902 is officially proposed to be $780,
100000. Moreover, reflections upon
the French census cause renewed un-
easiness. Last March the population
In round numbers was $500, 900, be-
ing an increase of only $4,000 since
1896, and even this meager result is
mostly accounted for by Paris and
its suburbs, where the increase has
been $4,000, due principally to for
eign immigration, so that in the rest
of France the population has been
augmented by only $4,000 during the
last five years. That is to say, for
military and naval purposes the
population is almost stationary, and
in this respect France stands alone
among the great nations of Europe.
Under these conditions NJ. Jaures,
the socialist leader and many ad-
vanced thinkers among the radicals
and radical socialists, hold that il is
impossible for France to have at the
same time a navy and army of the
first rank. simply because she has not
the resources of men and money to
maintain both

man the other day. according TO the
New Orleans Times-Democrat, but it
saved one young fellow his job and
made a success of him The man. who
was then a mere youth, was working
for me for $50 month ] thought a
good deal of his industry, int diligence
and accuracy. Suddenly he became
excusable mistakes. About the same
time found the name Amy written
on blotters. loose scraps, on the wall
everywhere
II called the young man TO me one
day and told him that he was getting
so careless and unreliable that l was
going 10 give him 30 days in which TO
stop making mistakes or resign. Sud-
denly it occurred to me that the name
Amy was in his writing. Who is
Amy? / asked him, abruptly. He
blushed deeply. She's my sweetheart,
sir: he replied We're going to get
married as soon as can save $500. I'm
putting away SOS a month. and Wen
get married in a year Hooked at him
hard, and he turned redder and redder.

you've got her on the brain so that you
are not worth $40 a month TO me. and
that if she does not marry you in a
month you'll lose your job
The poor fellow was in a quandary.
She won't marry me- he said; L must
wait till l can give her home. How
can get $500 in a month"; oh. that's
all right. jim said. I'm let you have
the $500. You can pay it back to me
ten dollars month. But you must be
married inside of 80 days. III give you
80 days to go on making mistakes while
you're thinking of getting married and
getting used TO being married. Then
no more mistakes or out you GO Well,
Jim made mistakes for two days He
got married in 80 days exactly. That
was five years ago. To-day he and
his wife and two boys are as happy q
family as you could find anywhere.
He is still working for me. He gets
nearly $50 month salary and the
first boy was named for me. Now. al

not let love affect him like dope and
that most men achieve their best work
