MARCUS II. SULZER, OF MADISON.
GROWS REMINISCENT.
Samuel q. Graham, of ROckpOrt,
Anxious About Indianapolis
SOuthern-HOteI Visitors.

Marcus r. Sulzer. of Madison, was i'm the
city yesterday and found time to shake
hands with old friends at the Denison. In
cidentally Madison and some of its old-time
statesmen were mentioned. Said Mr.. Sui
ger: Jefferson county, now Republican,
was back in the forties a Wing county.
Williamson Dunn was the Wing nominee
for State senator. Some of the Wings
were dissatisfied with the nomination and
Shadrich Wilbur. another Whig, became
an Independent candidate. Jesse ID. Bright
then became the Democratic nominee and
through dissensions in the Wing party
was elected. Through the influence that
he exerted in the Legislature he became
United States senator. He was serving
as senator near the beginning of the war,
and had been acting Vice President. About
this time he gave letter of introduction
10 a manufacturer of fire arms, to be pre-
scented to Jefferson Davis. Mr.. Wilbur be-
came acquainted with that fact and wrote
to Charles Sumner asking him to present
the matter TO the Senate. But Sumner paid
no attention to the request and Wilbur
then wrote to Senator Lyman Trumbull, of
Illinois, who presented the matter to the
Senate and Bright was expelled. Thus
Wilbur was responsible for Brights IN
ana outgoing as senator. wilbur was
quite a prominent citizen of Madison and
he and his brother brought the first Amert-
can manufactured calico into Indiana"
Discussing business conditions in Madi-
son Mr.. Sulzer said: Conditions in Madi-
son are now better than they have been
for some time. We have large number
of toll roads which the County Commits
sioners have just purchased and which
Will soon be made free. In addition our
City Council is now Offering inducements

In operation and ground has been broken
for a large paper mill. Within the next
few days our people expect also to locate
a large table and furniture plant. They
seeking more manufacturing establish
ments with good prospects. Madison will
also within the next few years be further
benefited by the completion of the gov
eminent locks and dams in the Kentucky
river, which will open up extensive coal
mines and timber fields. AS Madison is
only twelve miles from the mouth of the
river it will naturally be greatly benefited
by the development of these Kentucky
lands

Natures Wonders.

The common flea leaps 200 times

mite is about oDs-quarter OF an inch

then, letting go with jerk, to leap
out of a vessel six inches in depth.
To equal this man would have to

Death of a Noted Grizzly.

O4S WV, '-N . 'S =
had been killing off stock in the
country around Lewiston, Idaho, for
several winters, is no more. He was
killed few days ago by D. G. Hol-
brook, of Sioux Falls, S. D., life in
surance agent who travels in Idaho
Territory. Holbrook and those who
accompanied him returned to SpO-
kane bringing Big FOot's hide with
him. About eight days ago Tom
Hopper, the veteran bear hunter of
Spokane, and Holbrook went down
into Nez Perces county, Idaho, to
capture the gray terror Of the hills.
Accompanying them was L. W. Long,
of Spokane.
On arriving at Lewiston they found
that the grizzly was supposed to be
off somewhere in the hills, thirty-fve
or forty miles to the southwest OF
Lewiston. The snow was two or
three feet deep in that section, but
they wandered around in it for about
FIVE days before coming upon Big
Foot's trail. Finally one of the dogs
scared him up. He was in a hole
among some rocks on a ridge sloping
back from the head Of Captain John
Creek, which is a tributary of Snake
River.
The dogs got right on Big Foot's
heels. He started to run. Hopper,
who had the dogs out, was about 50
yards away when the race started.
The bear ran like a race-horse, Hop
per says. For while he would run
and then he would turn to fight the
dogs that were pursuing him. He
would chase them for about thirty
steps and then he would turn and run
again.
Finally he made a detour and
rushed down the side of the ridge.
He came within $50 yards of the
place where the entire party was
camped. Long and HolbrOok were in
the camp at the time, and when they
saw the bear coming, Holbrook grab
bed his 3O.3O rifle, aimed and fired.
The bullet pierced Big FOot's heart
and he rolled over dead. Another
bullet was put through his head to
make rure that he was gone.
Big Foot had killed about twenty
horses in the past few weeks. In the
country around where he was killed,
the hunting party counted fifteen dead
horses. When Big Foot was cut open
forty pounds Of horse meat was found
in his paunch. The place where Big
Foot was killed is near the foot Of
Craig Mountain, between the Clear
water and Snake rivers. Hopper is a
bear hunter of renown and has hunt
ed bears under all sorts Of conditions.
It was only luck that prevented him
from carrying off Big Foot's hide. He
was the first to see him, but never got
within range ofhim. Big Foot weighed
about 1900 pounds. He was about
9 feet long and about 3 high. No
exact measurements were taken and
there was no opportunity to weigh
him. He had claws over four inches
long. Big Foot had been pest of
the people residing in the section
where he was killed for several years.
Great joy was expressed among the
stockmen and farmers when word was
brought that he was dead.
