PULASKI CITY, VA, June Mr.. j..

had a large hog, Weighing two hundred
pounds, last week taken out of his pen
by large black bear, for which he set
trap and caught him.
He shot the bear and thought he had
killed him, as he was apparently life
less, so he approached him with his
knife to cut his throat, but the bear
was not dead, and arose and viciously
attacked him, injuring him SO badly
that it Is thought he cannot survive.
A man came to the rescue of Mr..
Burton, vainly endeavoring to get him
away from the bear, which refused to
relinquish his grip, and followed him and
fought until he breathed his last breath.
The bear was finally killed by the par
ty who came to the rescue of Mr.. Bur-
ton.

NORFOLK, VA, June 3.-The Eny
Shore Electric Railway Company stole a
march upon their rival, the Norfolk
Railway and Light Company this morn
ing and up to this afternoon were per-
mitted to pursue their flank movement
uropposed. Last night the Seventh
Ward Local Board Of Public Improve
ment granted the Bay Shore conditional
right of way whereby the line might ac-
complish the desired purpose OF geI1ins
a connection between Its Ocean View line.
which is In operation, and its down town
lines. which are nearly ready to run.
This consummation has been hitherto
blocked by the rival road, which had ar
exclusive right of way through Virginia
Place. acquired by the purchase Of the
suburb.
FLANK MOVEMENT.
At 1:3O o'clock this morning the Bay
Shore, of which MIR. H. l.. Page is the
driving spirit, put a small army IN The
field, sending about $50 men out. who
began to lay a track from the north cnd
of the City Park down Church Street.
parallel with the Norfolk Railway and
Light Company's track.
II appears that the latter company
were not advised until many hours al
terward of what its rival was doing.
A GROUND CURRENT.
The Bay Shore people say that When
Mr.. c. N. Randolph discovered that
they were up to. he telephoned to ms
car barn and ordered n lot of cars sent
out, with which it was proposed to block
the way of the opposing builders The
Bay Shore forces then. 1t is stated, threw
wire over :he Railway and Light
Company's trolley, grounded the cur
rent and made it impossible for cars
to pass the obstruction.
Then the work of laying the Bay
Shore track down Church Street for p
900 feet to a proposed junction at Broad
way with the down town lines pro-
ceeded.
COMPLETE VICTORY.
M. Page. who has energy and re-
eourcefulness enough for a dozen ordi-
nary men, said to-day that he went to
work on this line because by waiting
a delay would. perhaps. be occasioned.
which would prevent him from having
his suburban and city lines running
through by June I'D. which it is his
desire shall be.
1t was anticipated during the day that
his rival would enjoin him in the courts,
but up to a. late hour there were no
signs of this visible.

There is good news from Rhode Isl- and. where Presidential turkeys grow. where divorce is easy, and where clam bakes are what they should be. The good news ie that the clam -bakes are likely to continue to be what they should be, There has been fear in Rhode Island, as in Connecticut, that the joyous and joygiving clam was about to fade out under the require ments of Christian civilization. But a Brown University professor, who has been studying the Rhode Island clam for year, reports that the great set of clans is in deep water, where the clam digger can never get them. He says that the progeny of these clans that are out of reach will always be sufli' cient to supply the normal wants of Rhode Islanders and their summer wis. itors The spawn of the clam, the pro- lessor discovered, s cast upon the wa ters and a great part of it finds a rest ing place in the shallow waters along the shore where it will later be con venient to the clamdigger's rake. Nar' ous reasons are given for the recent shortage, and it is not unlikely that oven in the future there may be good and bad years. But the fear that the clam had gone forever has been all laved.
 If this is so in Rhode Island it is probably so in Connecticut Let us therefore be properly thankful that the understanding clam is going to continue to endure,

I can truly say, however that this qualification is as nothing compared with the joy of believing that the time is fast approaching when our grand old party will shake off the dreadful dreams that have afflicted It. and fight again, as of old, the glorious battles of pure Democracy.

 If Brother Bryan can stand to be call ed a dreadful dream he is meeker than he has seemed to be. And if he is all ready dreaming of another nomination it will not seem a dreadful dream to him until he wakes up.
