MT and Mrs George Nettleton of Ridgewood street are spending va cation at Woodmont.
 The Misses Julia Roper and Mary Phelan of Dublin street left to-day to spend a two weeks vacation at Buffa- To.
 The funeral of Mrs Sarah Dunn, who died Saturday at Middletown, took place this morning from the residence of her sister, Mrs Thomas Quinlan or Kingsbury street, to the Immaculate Conception church, and interment in St Joseph's cemetery. The bearers were Michael Ahearn, Thomas Coyle, William Murphy and Edward Byrnes.
 Robert McGrath of East Main street has a claim for big damages against the city arising out of the rain storm Of yesterday. The city has prepared Phoenix avenue to be paved With brick, so that when after the storm of yesterday the street looked like a large swimming tank. The great mass of water soaked through the soft bed and into MT McGrath's cellar, creat- ing considerable commotion there among the stock of cased goods, bar rels and high priced articles in the wet goods line. But the worst damage was done to the foundation on the Phoenix avenue walls. which were undermined, leaving them in a very dangerous con dition. The water rose about three feet in the cellar, and to-day it was nothing less than a sight with mud ankle deep. The matter has been placed in the hands of a lawyer. This morning City Engineer Cairns looked at the damage and concluded that it was a bad case.

I'S Gone,

Whats gone? The Fourth of July IS gone. and it was very quiet day TOT Waterbury. We didn't have the cele- brations like the days of George Washington. or even the days of the Spanish-American war. Patriotism or fha Fourth of July kind don't seem to strike Waterbury citizens at all; It wants too much money If it was close to election day. you'd see EreWorhs going up in all sectlons' yes, anu money running as freely as the peiu.i- full waters of the Mad rlver out li Wolcott; you'd also hear promises ol every nature, even a solemn pIoilll.'o that Hamilton Park would be the very first improvement Waterbury Was .o receive after they were elected 10 or flee. Say. the people who nave It III their power to lay out ana egulp q beautiful park for the city or NI.eL bury should feel rather backwafu HI looking for political fayors next laii, Remember election day is connng anu neonle who give q black eye to neces- sary improvements and only thlnk ol how to hoodwink the people shou pc taueht a lesson.

NERVY MAN. NERVY BEAR.
Bruin Dragged Into Camp With Rope
 and Finished With l3 Bullets.

Henry A. Scmmers, editor of the Elizabethtown News, who for more than a month has been roughing it in Wyoming. has had some exciting eX- periences in his search for big game The country In which he nas chosen to spend his vacation is famous for bears of'the black and silver t'p variety. More people are killed by these animals than by guns, and during the pas; twelve years over a dozen hunters have fallen victims to the beasts rage. Last June Mir. Sommers was an eye witness to a remarkable battle between a man and a bear. which he describes In letter to his paper.
 Tn going down the mountains on the 22d of June" writes MT. SCmmers, "I saw one Of the most wonderful fights with bear that has probably ever oc- cured in this part of the country. witnessed every detail of the exciting and dangerous conflict between man and beast The hunter, whom I after ward met. was MT. George saban. one of the largest sheep owners In the state and a nan who served with great gal lantry with the Rough Riders in the war with Spain.
 He saw a btar crossing a range of low hhs. He had neither gun nor knife, but with the daring opirit of the from tiersman he started in pursuit, hoping to capture the animal with an ordinary rope which hung at the pommei of his saddle. Ten times h. cast tha. rope with a trained hand and arm. Each time 1t fell with perfect precision over the head of bruin. but each time the brute, with a movement which seemed almost human, with his forepaws lifted the rope from around his neck before Saban could tighten the moose. On the eleventh cast the rope struck the bar In his open mouth and before he could set it out the knot was drawn tight at

 Then the real batu ye an. First the bear would drag the horse and then the horsc would drag the bear by the rope. Then the bear would make a rush at the rider and only the finest horsemanship and most agile broncho avoided the rush. Time and again as I witnessed these rushes I thought horse and rider would surely go down before them. I was unarlned. so could not go to his assistance. although he waved for hetp repeatedly. He told me afterwar6, T certainly at that point would have turned the bear loose had you not seen me, but after that my pride was up and determined to make the fight to finish
 "The battle lasted for more than an hour. gradually man and horse getting the better of 1t, and Bruin was finally dragged to Sa6an's sheep camp, where his herd5r and camp mover were. Sa ban got Winchester rife and com menced pumping lead into the brute. He was dismourted and had fired four shots, each one entering the head, but still the bear came on 1t vas intensely

 TT was surprised that l had not killed the bear. I knew with the shots | and the other men had fired that he had twelve balls in him. mostly in the head I waited with my gun Co my shoulder as he came on. l thought I had one more load in my gun. let him get within two feet of mo with the bar rel of the gun at his open mouth when l pulled the trigger. It snapped. there was no load. I had made a fatal mis- take. l thought 1t was all up with me. l turned to run and fell. In an instant l felt the hot breath of the bear in my face.
 Tt was at this juncture that the other men got hUE of the rope and with one tremendous pull dragged the bear from the prostrate man. In another instant he would have been killed. By this time the whole crowd was demor- alized The rope had gotten loose and the bear started for the forest. One of the men fired a shot which went di- rectly through his heart and he fell dead in his tracks. It was worth going to Wyoming to see. There were twelve balls in that bears head and neck and not one or all of them killed him.. Louisville Courier Journal

FACTS AND FIGURES.

In single year the French polce ex- pei over 4o00 foreigners from France. Of these about 1500 are Spaniards, 1900 Belgians and 800 Germans.
 A French Investigator says the brains of military and naval men give out most quickly. He states that out of every 100000 men of the military or naval profession l99 are lunatios. Of the so called liberal professions artists are the first to succumb to the nerve strain, next the lawyers. followed at some distance by doctors. clergy, liter ary men and civil servants.
 The bulk of Thibct is the Chang or Great Thibctan plateau, the highest as well as the largest tableland on the earth. says St. Petersburg correspond ent. An idea of it's elevat lion may be best obtained from the statement of Captain Hamilton Bower, one of the most highly regarded of recent author ities: From the end Of June until the middle of November the average alti- tude of our camps was over 16,00O feet. the lowest being li.621 and the highest lS.160 feet" During the period already referred to the enormous stretch of country crossed by Captain Bowers company did not show a single tree and only two species of shrub. and these rarely exceeded six inches in height"

A TWENTY DOLLAR sCRAPE
Small Transaction Gets Young
 Man Into Trouble.

Ii was reported here last night that Albert Burnett is under ar rest at Redlands, California, by or der of Phoenix officials, and inquiry he is wanted reveals the following story that shows how much trouble person may get into by an irregular financial transaction no matter how small the amount involved.
 Burnett Is said to be. or recently to have been. engaged in the butchering business in Wickenburg. About June 2lst he came to Phoenix and stopped at the Commercial hotel, paying his bill promptly and thereby establishing him. self in the confidence of Landlord Luhrs. Last week he returned to Phoenix and secured room at the Commercial as before. He told Mr Luhrs that he was a little short of money at the time and he asked for q loan of five dollars, which he secured. /Ihe next day he duplicated his request and was again accommodated Then he did not show up for day or so. but Mr. Luhrs was in no way alarmed, though a little anxious. Last Sunday he came back to the hotel. and, apolo- glzing for his going away without glv- ing notice, asked for his bill. which by that time amounted to twelve dollars. He drew from his pocket blank check from the Phoenix National bank and filled 1t out for twenty dollars, and, handing it to MT. Luhrs, asked him tJ pay him the difference in cash. The proceeding being very ordinary one in hotels where no suspicion rests upon the guest. Mir Luhrs again accommo- dated him. When the hotel man went to make his deposit in the bank Mon- day afternoon he learned that w. A. Burnett the name signed to the check, had no account at the bank. MT. Luhri then sought for the young gentleman. but learning that he had left town he turned the matter over to Justice Bur nett and warrant was placed in the hands of the sheriff. That is all there Is of the story to date, but there is apt to be more to it before the incident is closed.
 Albert Burnett was raised in Phoe- nix and is well known here.

 There is TO man on the supreme court bench. perhaps, who enjoys a little good natured fun at the expense of the law yers who come before him better than Justice Wni. E. Dickey of Brooklyn. Tu begin with, Justice Dickey has a voice that is deep and thunderous. and this in itself frequently causes newly hedg- ed and inexperienced young lawyers who appear. before him to tremble in their shoes A fedgling attorney re- gently came before Judge Dickey and presented what was probably his maiden case. It wa. n such hope lessly tangled condition that the court could make neither head nor tail of it..
 "We can not proceed with this case as it has been prepared" said Justice Dickey, in his Edouard de Rcszke-l ike tones.
 The young counselor blushcd. became deeply embarrassed, and finally asked, in sheer desperation
 Well, your honor. what would you advise me to do?"
 Study more law, young man. study more law murdered the court. and the nedgling counselor, crushed, re- tired.
