HOW BEARS ACT WHEN TRAPPED
 There were days at a time when there was nothing doing in bear traps. The real rushing business did not begin un- til about the first of June, when the moose calves had got big enough to run fast. Then Henry discovered to his great joy that the bears had begun marking anew their striking trees The trapper who takes possession of a stream by blazing trees with his axe Is only initiating a custom that was old before Elisha studied bear culture. The big bears stand up as high as they can by certain trees and mark them with their teeth. Each year they bite them anew, at the beginning of sum mer and Henry showed me several freshly struck trees one day. That bear is an old settler" said Henry, as we looked at the bites on the tree, high CT than a tall mans head. So he re- baited the nearest traps, and burned the feathers of a loon which had come too close to camp. T think he will smell those burnt feathers a mile" said Henry. Also he toasted cheese and stuck bits of it in cleft sticks about the neighborhood. to get the bear in terested.
 This diaboism worked its spell, for on approaching the trap, three days later, we heard roars and howls quarter of a mile away. The bear had become entangled in snarl of blow downs, and having fought the trap and bushes for hours lay flat on his back as we approached, wailing his despair. Henry said he never heard a bear make so much noise.
 There was a great difference in the way the bears acted Some of them tried to get away. some became furi- ous at our coming. But all of them took the final blow quietly, and died in- stantly.-Frederic Irland in Scribner's.

JOHN 1T. LEEDS.

John H. Leeds, who died suddenly in New York yesterday. was a man of conspicuous figure and conspicuous ability. He was a great traveller, his business taking him into parts of the world not much frequently by Ameri- cans. He improved his opportunities while travelling and his mind was richly stored with the results of his observa- tion and thought. He was a very in teresting talker, both in private and in public. At one time he played an inn- portant and influential part In public affairs in New Haven, and was always deeply interested in all that concerned the prosperity and progress of the city
 He was sound and successful busi- ness man, a thorough patriot and a good citizen. In his death New Haven loses one of her strong and stable men.

A WILFUL PRINCESS.

Among the many charming little stories told of the late Princess Royal when a child, the following Is one of the prettiest, evincing, as 1t does, indiff- erence to childish punishments and pure love of bit of fun. The Princess, like so many children, cherished a wholesome dislike to the then physi- clans in ordinary. not remotely un- connected with delicacles denied and rhubarb prescribed. Therefore the Prin- cess invariably and with firmness al- luded to him as Brown" This vexed the Queen, who insisted on respect be- ing paid to all members of the house. hold. Her majesty, indeed, punished her small daughter more than once for such breach of etiquette. Neverthe- less, one day, when the child happened to meet Dr. Brown in one of the corri- dors. she said mischievously. Good morning, Brown" And then, turning to where the Queen stood with eyes of grave dlsapprovaI and meditated pun ishment, added: And good night too. I'm going to bed' Then slowly and with all the sweet dignity of three summers and golden curls she walked to the nursery and bade the surprised attendant to put her to bed-"Cos I've been dis-pectful to Brown" ."-(Vanity Fair.

MORE 1RO UBLE IN INDIA.

Another famine is impending in India,
 this time in the province of Gujerat
 The immediate cause of it is plague
 of rats, which have practically de-
 stroyed the young crops of maize,
 wheat, and rice. The government tried
 to meet the evil by offering rewards for certain number of rats tails, but life is sacred thing in the eyes of the natives, and, rather than kill the vermin, they allowed them to grow fat at their expense. But, according to a letter in London weekly, neither scarcity of rain nor plaques of rats, locusts, or other pests can account for the chronic recurrence of famine In India The real responsibility, says the writer. lies at the door of the grain merchants, who are nearly all rich, many very rich. A poor farmer whose crop has failed comes to one of these men. He is starving, his family is starving, and the merchant Is most willing to relieve his wants. but on his own conditions--viz., the whole of next years crops must he handed over to him, the merchant only undertaking to supply little food in return. and per haps seed for the following years crop. which will also belong to him, The rich man hoards his grain year after year, and In the year of famine sells it o@t at an exorbitant rate while the poor man and his family die The peo- pie are kept In perpetual poverty, and in year of famine death is inevitable unless government relief comes. Fam ines will be of regular occurrence, con- cludes the writer, unless some means

 I'll v TRJ4L OF CZOLG OSy.

Even those who advocated the lynch ing of Czolgosz can't fairly find fault with the way justice has so far dealt with him. He was yesterday found guilty of murder in the first degree af ter trial which lasted only eight hours and twenty-six minutes. The prisoner pleaded guilty to the charge of murder ing the President. This plea was not accepted because the law, to protect a man against himself and to preserve proper respect for life, has provided that proof of guilt must be offered to a death. The only plea which the law permits in such a case was ordered en- tered on the record, and then the jury was chosen. Both the prosecuting officer and the attorneys for the defense CO., operated in securing twelve men to sift the evidence. There was no quibbling and no seeking by resort to technicali- ties to delay the proceedings. The case was carried on in accordance with the best traditions of legal procedure.
 Czolgosz will soon pay the legal pen alty of his awful crime. The law has dealt fairly with him, and the case ought to be an impressive object lesson to all, even to his fellow anarchists.

GOOD YORK JN HayANA.

Havana may yet be advertised as a
 summer resort The report of Mayor
 Gorgas, chief sanitary officer of the
 city, shows condition that compares
 favorably with that of other large cit
 les in England and the United States. The number of deaths in Havana from all causes during the month of August of this year was four hundred and eighty, considerably smaller than the number during the corresponding month of any year since 1889. The least number of deaths occurring in any previous August during that period was five hundred and flfty-nine in 1900; the greatest nineteen hundred and seventy-eight, in 1898 Itsappears that the death rate in Havana during August of this year was twenty-two and twenty four hundredths per thou sand, while in Birmingham, England, for the week ending August three it was twenty-five per thousand in Leeds twenty mine and six tenths; in Liverpool thirty; in New York, for the week ending July seventeenth, the rate was twenty four and three tenths; in Philadelphia, for the week ending July thirteen, twenty-six and nine-tenths; in Baltimore, for the month of July, twenty-eight per thousand,
 Only two of the deaths In Havana in August were from yellow fever. In August, 1896, the deaths there from yellow fever were two hun dred and sixty-two. The situation speaks we'll for the sanitary work done there by the United States authorities

FATAL MINING TROUBLE
Clash Between Opposinx Forces Ends
In Btood~hed

jacksonville. Ky. Nov. 1S-Mining
troubles in this district brought more
bloodshed Sunday morning. James H.
Smith. a negro striker, is dead. Geo.
Crouch, another striker, is fatally
wounded, while John West, Hut Daw-
son and Nathan Bush. all guards, are
wounded, none of them daE gerously.
The trouble occurred at the mines
OF the Providence Coal company. Il
miles from here. where an attack be-
gan at about 4 80 o'clock The attack
ing party, some IS or 50 strong first
fired on the engine house and then in
a few minutes the companys stables
were surrounded. A horse and mule
were killed and several other animals
disabled. BY this time the guards
were becoming active and the attack
ers formed in a semi-circle over the
brow of the hill. From there they
poured a well-directed fire upon the
houses occupied oy the non-union en-
ployes and their families. Men arous-
ed by the crash of bullets rushed to
small timber piles. arranged for use
in such an emergency. and from be
hind these returned the fire. The at
lacking party. while sending volley
after volley into this quarter, kept up
a steady fire on the tipple, engine
room. stable and other buildings of the
company, while the guards for their
part were doing effective work. The
battle ragged for almost an hour and
a half, when the ASSISTANTS withdrew,
leaving Smith dead and Crouch shot
through and through on the field.
How many wounded they took with
them is not known, but the leader was
seen to fall. and it is believed some
of the party who went to his rescue
were hit.
County Judge Ball at Providence
ste tied an investigation. An inquest
was held, the coroner's jury verde
being that the negro came to his death
at the hands of the guards while de
Tending life and property, and they
were therefore justifiable. The news
of the shooting spread like wildfire
1t was not long before me news reach
ed Adjutant General Murray. who at
once commenced an investigation
opening up communication with the
governor.
Following the battle at the Provi-
dence mine there were riots at other
Kentucky mines. An attack was made
on the nine guards at the Monarch
mines. three miles from darlington.
last night. but it was repulsed. Two
employees of the St. Bernard coal com
pany at Morton's Gap were fired upon
by man who sprang from behind
tree There was much trouble at
other places. but neither injury nor
loss of life followed. Owing to the
days riots and the serious situation
in the mining field of Webster and
Hopkins counties. the governor has
ordered out the militia. The troops
left for the scene of trouble this morn
ing.
