STRANGE BUT TRUE.

The death plant of Java has flowers
which continually give off a perfume
so powerful as to overcome, if inhaled
for any length of time, full-grown
man, and which kills all forms of insect
life that come under its influence.
In Beloochistan, when a physician
gives dose, he is expected to partake
of similar one himself as a guaran-
tee of his good faith. Should the pa
tient die undefhfs hands, the relatives,
though they rarely exercise it, have
the right of putting him to death. I'M
less a special agreement has been made
freeing him froiD all responsibility as
to consequences; while, if they should
decide upon immolating him, he is
fully expected to yield to his fate like
man.

moment. In the direction of a racing

IT'S TRUE, IT'S PITY.

And how to stew.nany savory mess,
But she never had done it herself. I

Oh, the hours we spent, and the -four
we spent,
And the sugar weswasted like sand,
At the hest of a woman who never had
cooked,
(And now we know that she never
could coofss
And did nor anderstand)
A woman there was. and she wrote
right fair, :
CAS- you or might do)
How out of barrel to make chair,
To be covered with chintz and stuffed
with hair;
'Twould adorn any parEor and give it
tAnd we thought the tale was true).
On, the days we worked, and the ways
we worked
TO hammer and saw and hack
In making chair in which no one
would sit,
A chair in which no one could possibly
sit,
Without a crick in the back.
A woman there was, and she had her
fun,
Dieter than you or ID
She wrote recipes and she never tried
one,
She wrote about children-of course
she had none
She told us to do what she never had
done
(And never intended to try).
And it isn't to toll. and it isn't to spoil
That brims the cup of disgrace;
It's to follow woman who didn't know

of the bear. Calvwell fought, but as
he was wholly unarmed the bear
clawed great gashes in his face,
hands, chest and arms, and he was
soon covered with blood. The furni-
ture was broken and the telegraph
apparatus ruined.
After five minutes or more of fight
ing Calvwell broke away and, al
though faint and weak from the loss
of blood he jumped head first
through the window above his desk,
carrying the sash with him and cut
ting himself in many places.
The bear remained in the office.
Calvwell staggered over to the Sec
ton house, routed out the worEmen,
and told his story. y shotgun was
secured and Calvwell, accompanied
by three section men, returned to
the station, where they found the
bear asleep on the counter where
Calvwell had been mapping. Through
the open door one of the men blazed
away with both barrels at the bear,
killing the beast. The bear weighed
over 500 pounds.
Owing to the breaking of the tele-
graph instruments all trains on the
Saginaw division of the Pere Mar,
quette were held up for several
hours.

Grace George in Pretty Peggy.

To most people the stage and its
workers constitute a topic of never.
changing color and interest. When
the stage in question becomes that of
Covent Garden and the workers such
picturesque notables as David Garrick
and Peg Wellington, the material Of
fered is even more attractive. Fran
ces Aymar Matthews, author of "a
Littly Tragedy of Tien-Tsin," has
gathered this material into a play,
which captioned pretty Peggy" is to
be presented this week Saturday af.
ternoon and evening at the Valentine
theatre by Grace George. The piece
has scored considerable success. 1t
is said to be full of the atmosphere
of the time and place, beside telling a
story replete with interest The love
of Peg Woffington, mere slip of an
Irish girl, for the famous Garrick, has
been the subject of much comment in
history and fiction, but it's humanness
is such that the relation is not likely
to lose favor. "Pretty Peggy" is an
entirely new treatment of the subject
and one that besides it's intrinsic mer-

If anyone has a nice mplimentary

tage where he can dispose of it to an
advantage possibly by sending it to
Mark Twain. Mark has concluded
that he may not live always, and be-
fore it is too late would like to edit
and probably revise the statements
which may be made about him. He is
of the opinion that the party most con-
cerned can do this best. He makes
the following tempting offer: For

MONSTER BLACK BEAR. 2
Fought Station Agent Up in Michigan
and Tied Up Railroad for
Several Hours.

T. I. Calvwell, formerly of Kala-
mazoo, Mich, but now night operator
for the Pere Marquette railroad at
Hemlocli City, Mich, was attacked
by monster black bear in the sta
tion at two o'clock the other morn
ing and seriously injured in the
struggle that followed.
Calvwell was awakened by some
thing clawing at his body. He
jumped up and confronted full
grown bear, which attacked him. Be
fore the frightened operator was
fairly aware he was in the embrace

spot where he had stood, but dropped
his revolver in the effort.
The bear circled the tree time after
time, growing continuously, and now
and then reaching up the trunk as far
as he could. When an hour had passed
this became very monotonous to the
doctor.
AS he was searching his case to see
If he had any weapon that he could
use against the bear, an idea that
would at least help to pass the time
came into his mind, and he acted on it.
He took a small bottle from the case,
and bound it to a small branch in such
way that he could manipulate it
handily. He poured it full of ether,
and let it down to where the bear was
leaning against the trunk. One push
from the paw spilled the ether, but he
filed it again, and again let it down.
This time the same thing happened,
but the results We're far more salts
factory. The ether spilled over the
bears face, and caused him to sneeze
and puff. A third bottle was tried,
with the same effect, but when the
fourth was ready, the bear had
enough and took position little
distance away.
By moving as though to get down,
the doctor brought bruin back to close
quarters. He made little poke with
a piece of paper and as the bear
stretched up his nose he broke it. The
paper struck the fur, and the bear got
the full dose. Many times this was
repeated, all kinds of ruses being
necessary to get the bear to step up
and take the dose.
Finally the bear got sleepy and lay
