Marion, Ind, July ia bear hunt,
in which every able-bodied man took
part. was engaged in at Van Buren,,
east of this city, Wednesday night. 1t
ended in the determination of the
brute, and the finale was Thursday
night, when the citizens of the place
feasted oh bear meat. The fact that a
bear was loose in the town prevented
many from going to sleep, and not un-
til word came that the animal had
been caught and killed did the people
of Van Buren close their eyes. The
animal was the property of Matthew
Doyle, who has u sort of menagerfe
at his place near Van Buren.
Bruin Treed at Last.
The bear escaped earIy~ln Tne even
ing. and first made itself prominent
by trying to enter the home of James
Duel. Duel heard the noise on his back
porch, and when he looked out of the
window he saw what he first supposed
was Il COW; but when he went out to
drive the animal away he retreated.
The bear raised up his hind foot and
made a lunge at him. Within very
short time every man and boy was up
in arms, and every available weapon,
from a revolver to an old army mus
ket, was carried in the pursuit. Bruin
was finally freed and a marksman
brought him down with single shot.

IOWA FLOOD SUFFERERS
SLEEP IN SCHOOL YARD

Des Moines, July 11.-A hundred
homeless flood sufferers spent the
night in the school house yards and
down town parks without a blanket
to cover them. The charitable socie-

better organized today and it is be-
lieved the wants will be generally
met.
Neither the Des Moines nor Rae

1t is believed the situation in the
flooded district cannot be materially
relieved for several days.
An estimate of the damage is prac

reach n million dollars.
