The Size He Wanted.

Speaking recently of queer college
fads, Prof. Henry A. Beers of Yale
said that in his undergraduate days
mourning hat bands became so popu.
lar as to grow from a mark Of bereave-
ment almost to a feature of natty
dress.
One day he went into a store with a
friend who, afte- buying a hat, said he
would like to look at some mourning
bands.
These widest bands" explained the
storekeeper, displaying his assortment,
ARE worn for immediate members of
the family. From that they narrow
down according to the relationship.
Which width do you need, sir?" he
asked.
The student. made a moments in
spection. "Oh, give me about ar un-
Gle" he replied.
No greater sanitary advance has
been made in the last decade than
that relating to the determination of
mosquitoes in yellow fever and malari-
al districts. If any cumulative proof
were needed of the part played by mos
quitoes in spreading these diseases it
is found in the September statement
Of the health officer of Havana, Cuba,
from which it appears that there has
not been a single case Of yellow fever
reported in that city for year past.
Besides the crusade against the mos
qultoes themselves, extraordinary pre-
cautions have been taken to prevent
mosquitoes from gaining access to
apartments where yellow fever pa.
t1ents are confined.

Did you ever hear a bear call you

Dell until You were forced to answer 2?
asked Israel Pirt who has been judg-
ing poultry at the agricultural fairs in
Maine in the last two weeks.
"At the close of the Lewiston fair
Mr.. Brooks, Bangor poultry man,
asked me to so to his cottage at Hol-
brooks pond on the Bar Harbor rail-
rqa>d and pass the Sabbath. We ar
rived on Saturday afternoon and found
jolly party waiting for us. A. man
who lived In a cottage half a mile
away telephoned to Mr.. Brooks, ask
ing him to bring his guests over by
moonlight and play few games of
whist, offering a plover pie as an'tin-
ducement.
The card players were seated at
three tables on the piazza and the
children were romping and playing in
the lighted woods when the telephone
began to ring loud and long. The cot
tage was on a line which runs around
the pond and our host, thinking that
some neighbor had called him up,
went to the instrument and tried to
learn what was wanted. After sew
ersal minutes he asked Mr.. Brooks and
myself to go to the receiver, as he
could get no answer, tho there was
plenty of noise at the other end of
the line.
81 put my ear to the receiver and
could hear a humping and scratching
sound, like that made by a servant
when she sweeps out the hallway with
a stiff broom. Then Mr.. Brooks tried.
Before he had listened a minute he be-
gan to smile.
You'll excuse me, gentlemen,' said
he. There is bear in. my cottage,

mistaken, he is engaged in eating up

Getting a rifle and two revo1vers,
we went in the direction of the Brooks
cottage as fast as our legs could carry
us. On the way Mr.. Brooks explained
that he had left the. windows opening
on the piazza unguarded except by
screens, and he had no doubt that
proWling bear had smelled the burned
molasses in the candy and had broken
in to help himself.
He was right, too. I was the first
to reach the piazza, and wounded the
bear with a revolver shot as he was
looking out Of the window, Mr..
Brooks finished him with a shot from
his Winchester. In reaching to pull
the candy from the shelf the bear,
finding that it had adhered to the
wood, had given the call crank of the
telephone several turns, and later had
port, so we could hear every noise
made in the cottage. A peculiar cluck-
ing note of satisfaction, such as bears
utter when they find good food, caused
Mr.. Brooks to identify the house
breaker without trouble"

The double page reproduction on
pages and 8 Of the Manufacturing
and Wholesale section of the Silver
Anniversary number of T h e J our
n a l, showing a panoramic view OF
the city, is from a picture measuring
six feet in length by two in height,
and is the production of Messrs.
Sweet, photographers of. this city.
The camera, focused from the court
house tower, takes in a broad sweep
west, north and eastward embracing
all of the business center and sub
urbs with glimpses of the Mississippi
winding off thru the wooded slopes
of the western horizon. A marvellous
ly clear day of July last afforded a
long waited for opportunity and the
artists were well rewarded for their
painstaking effort, as it is undoubt-
edly the largest and most compre-
hensive view of the city ever at
tempted or produced.
The picture was viewed by the
committee of municipal exhibits for
the worlds fair at their meeting last
week and it will probably be among
their exhibits in 1904. The original
has been temporarily placed on en-
hibition in the windows of the Beard

siderable and favorable comment
