TRUE STORY OF BEAR HUNT.
Silver Bill Makes Acquaintance Of Newport Hunting Party And Re- lates Some Incidents Of
 Camp Life.

party of gentlemen from Newport, who are camping on Fifteen Mile Bayou, invited Squire Thomas to dim ner one day this week. He went. The next morning about f o'clock he came in, and after trying about fifteen minutes to get the gate open, finally broke it down, rushed into the house, fell over three chairs, broke two lamps, knocked down the stove, killed the cat, and at last caught the bed as it flew past and turned in with his boots on. We have been anxious to learn what he ate(?)
 G. H. Hillhouse, A. Ferguson, s. M. Stuckey and c. R. Hite comprising the Ananias club of Newport, had a lively experience with bear on Eff teen Mile Bayou. Stuckey and Hite were skirting dense canebrake when they discovered an old bear and two cubs, that were making scurry for cover. Stuckey gave chase and ran one of the cubs into an old hollow log. and, of course, being a small man, he craWled into the log and captured the cub alive. Hite followed the old bear and the other cub. Stuckey dragged his bear into the open and tied it to a tree. The cries of baby bear brought the old mother to the scene, and you can guess there was 'tsomething do- in'." She rushed upon Stuckey who ''shinned'' up small persimmon tree, and just as he thought himself out of harms reach, the bear caught him by the foot and pulled him down. The captain yelled, and he yelled wisely and we'll His cries for help brought Hlllhouse and Ferguson to the rescue. Ferguson by one well aimed shot brought the old bear down. but upon rushing up to where she fell, was sur prised when the brute reared upon her hind feet and with a powerful slap, knocked his gun out of hand and he fell limp to the ground. Before the dying bear could infiict any seri- ous injuries, however, Hillhouse rushed in and finished her with his hunting knife. w. s. Thomas brought the body of the dead bear, and Stuck ey's cub into Democrat where the old bear was skinned The bear's skin will decorate the rooms of the club in the future. They boys are very proud of their trophy, and will go home hap py to tell their friends of the thrilling adventure in which 1t was taken.A Silver Bill, Democrat correspondent of Forrest City Times.

ROCK ISLAND PLANS.
New Survey to be Made North From Jacksonport to St Louis -Esti- mated Cost of Lines From Jacksonport and Belle to
 Arkansas Line.

While nothing new has been given out lately by the officials of the Rock Island system regarding the building of the line from Belle to West Plains and on to Newport, it may be inter- esting to know the other branch lines contemplated by that rapidly growing system in this section, says the Spring field Leader Democrat
 When the survey was made of the Belle branch last month the southern connection to Newport was made at Jacksonport, Ark, on the White & Black River Valley railroad This road is Rock Island property, through the purchase of the Choctaw line, which owned this branch. Jackson port is the northern terminus of this line, which extends sixty miles north from Brinkley.
 It IS now reported that a new sur Vey is to be made of this branch line north from Jacksonport. Instead of going in a northWesterly direction up Strawberry creek, as Engineer Rams dell did, the new survey will continue up Black river to Black Rock, and then in the direction of Doniphan and Poplar Bluff, It is thought that the survey will be continued northward to St. Louis.
 Should the Rock Island conclude to build this last-named line there will be no need of constructing the Belle branch. For some time it has been known that the Rock Island intended making survey east of here with q view of comparing the line with the route from Belle to Newport, and se- leeting the one most suitable and fea- sible
 The cost of building the line from Belle to the Arkansas line via West Plains was estimated by Captain Clark, who made the survey, at $9, 800 mile. Engineer Ramsdell, who came up Strawberry creek from Jackson port and connected with the survey made by Captain Clark, estimated the cost of building his end of the line at $16, ,000 mile
