"Mr. and Mrs. Curtis were ct the St.

BEAR TOOK CARE OF HER.
Little Child Carried on by Animal and
Put to Bed.

VUS TO 000s
An extraordinary but apparently
well-authenticated story of . bears
freak comes from Russian village in
the district of Odoff. The village lies
ON the fringe Of forest, whence it is
of frequent occurrence for bears to
make prowling excursions both by day
and night into the adjacent settle
ments. Some two weeks ago two
young girls. aged respectively and
Is, were surprised by huge bear at
short distance from the village. The
animal seized and carried of the
younger child. while the elder. terror
stricken. ned home. and gave the not
unusual alarm.
An immediate pursuit was instituted
and the search was continued during
the evening and the next day. but
without result. On the third day, with
the assistance OF neighboring villag-
ers. wide Gordon was drawn around
an extensive tract of the forest, and
the searcherS closed in. Toward sum
down the bear and her booty were
discovered In 4 dense thicket. The
child was. perfectly unframed. says
the London Mail. and reclining In q
deep messy couch made for her by the
bear.

Christian Scientists are to be exclud-
ed from practicing in cases OF contag-
ious and infectious disease. Senator
Ballingsr led night against this pro-
hibition. which he said was unjust. He
declared they had n right to treat can
Ger, diphtheria. scarlet fever and
tuberculosis. He recalled instances of
cures OF those diseases accomplished
by Christian Scientists. Hecharged SEN
ator Rush with having broken faith
with the scientists in his recent nkht
AGAINST the bill as 1t was originally
drafted. Senator Rush denied this i'm
plication and declared that he didn't
believe in turning people loose to prac-
tice in cases Of contagious and infec-
tious diseases IL they could not pass
an examination provided in the bill.
Senator Seldomridge offered an amend

Christian Scientists to practice in cases
Of tuberculosis, but efforts of Senator

ed and the taxpayers, freed from
. suspense, can breath easily for two
years more. OF the three county di.
vision bills which were introduced
into and wisely quashed by by the
seventh legislature, it is safe to say
not one had its origin in anything
better than county seat fight.
Motive and result were well fitted
and CONSTANT. The Anderson
county bill, the Clearwater bill, and
the Roosevelt bill were, without
doubt, all drafted and pushed BY
persons who were financially, pol
itically or otherwise to be benefit.
ted by county division, and all Of
these bills were introduced without
regard OF the consent or dissent OF
the taxpayers who would be called
upon to bear the burden. Indeed
the last named was drafted and in
trodnccd with all possible secrecy,
that fact being, itself, sufficient te
destroy all confidence as to gooe
intentions. The public good wa.
not tor a moment considered b,
the INSCRIPTIONS and avariciou.
authors OF these ncfarous measures.
There is a subtle element Of insin.
cerity and double purposeness how
efing about the history of the bill
just disposed of, which makes it re-
pulsive to honest minds. On I'll.
other hand the tax payers shoule
accord Representative Reid the
highest respect for the solicitude !
