KILLED A BEAR
Photographic land Harry
Bliler Engage in Excit-
ing Hunt.

r. w Reed and Harry Bliler
We're mixed up in a bear killing
yesterday. In company with
Ed Kerr, a settler living a few
miles west of town, they tracked
a two-year-old black bear into a
swamp and killed him with a
club. Kerr had a gun along, a
combination rifle and shotgun,
but it was not used for fear the
hide would be spoiled
s. Some ttinre ago Mr. Kerr. told
MIR. Bliler and Mr. Reed that
there was Il bear in the vicinity
of his place He said that when
he got it located he would let
them know. Yesterday morning
they received a message from
him stating that he knew where
to find bruin, and the local hunt
crs Immediately set about. maxi
ing preparations for the hunt.
Mr.. Reed took his camera along
and they caught the $50 train
west.
They were met at Solway by
Mr.. Kerr, and he conducted them
into the woods between Wilton
and Solway, a considerable
distance from the track and
about ten miles from Bemidj il.
The track of the bear was found
on the edge of a swamp. "A half
mile of walking along his trail in
the damp ground brought them
to the animal.
The bear started to run but
was soon overtaken and sur
rounded. Several good negatives
were made of him by the pho
tographer, and then MI. Kerr
approached bruin and dispatched
him with Il few we'll directed
blows of stout club, finishing
the work by running his knifc in
the bears shoulder Excitement
for a brief period was intense,
land all concerned INDUCED in
rapid actions to escape the
animals claws. 1t was dark be
fore the party got out Of tire
woods. The bear head is TO be
mounted. The hide ut this sea.
son is of little volue.

ASSAULTED AND ROBBED.
Charles Weist, Of Cassville, the
Victim Says Joseph Brink
man did the Decd.

Charles Weist, Of Cassville, came to
Lancaster Monday and before Justice
Shimmin swore out warrant for the
arrest OF Joseph Brinkman, of the
same town, on the charge Of robbery
and attempt to murder.
Weist appeared to be sadly demon
allied and was badly bruised and bat
tered from the assault made upon him,
he alleges, by Brinkman. He Is also
$50 short in cash, which he claims his
assailant took from him.
Justice Shimmin issued the warrant
and Under Sheriff Dyer went after
Brinkman.
The story OF Weist Is to the effect
that while both were returning home
from Beetown Saturday night his as
sailant sought to secure the money,
and uron refusal to deliver it assault
cd him, Bad blood is said TO exist
between the families
The officer returned with his pris-
oncr yesterday evening and he will be

It Is time that there should be an
end of self-satisfed qualification or
pretense Of virtue In the phrase y
am not politician" and 1t Is time
TO forbid the prostitution Of the word
TO a sinister use. Every citizen should
be politician enough to bring himself
within the true meaning of the term
as one who concerns himself with
'"the regulation or government OF a
nation or state, for the preservation
of it's safety, peace aud prosperity"
This is politics In IL, best sense, and
this Is good citizenship. r Grover
Cleveland
The address delivered by Former
President Grover Cleveland before
the commercial club Of Chicago Is a
great address. 1t is chiefly great in
it's strength and simplicity. 1t ought
10 be read and reread by every Amer
lean citizen. Mr.. Cleveland clearly
and with solemn warning shows how
through national Indifference the
evils OF selhshness and corruption
affect the state; but hastens to give
assurance that he does not speak In a
spirit OF gloomy pesslmism; and In u
spirit Of patriotic hopcfulness sug-
gests the proper remedy, and predicts
the ultimate "safety, permanence and
happiness OF our natlon.o His mes
sage to us, his countrymen, Is, simply
TO eXemplify our patriotism by the
faithful performance Of every polit-
ical duty. And that message ought to
be needed. Enjoying above all men
the blessings Of good government, we
are In duty most strongly bound to
the true and laudable service Of good
citizenship. One lesson above all
others ought TO be impressed upon
the mind and heart of every citizen Of
the United States namely: that IL il
his duty to take an active part IN
public affairs and intclligently act
aud vote M will best serve the state.
Not only should this be acted upon
by the men Of this generation, but
parents should tell 1t to their child
ren. M the farmer on the CarricS
border told his son TO act n manly
part In all the affairs OF life. IT is
becoming more and more generally
understood that the evil Of perniclous
activity in politics Is not so great as
as that OF culpable inactivity.
One fact most strongly attcsts TO
Mr.. Cleveland i greatness, and that Is
that the people treasure his sayings In
rheir hearts and repeat them In their
conversation The wise and patriotic
words which he uttered ut Chicago
last week will be fruitful Of good re-
suits

WIN. DALLES INJURED.
Run Over by Team while Haul
ing Lumber from Wyoming
Ranch to Laramie.

Ranch to Laramie.
The Boomerang, published at Lar
annie, Wyoming, contains the follow
ing account Of a very serious acct
dent which happened recently to Mr..
William Dalles, who is we'll known
here, where he has lived for over
forty-three years:
cat 1870 o'clock yesterday after
noon an old man with a terrible cut
across his face, another behind his
right ear and his lower jaw fractured
so that IL hung upon his throat,
walked into the Elkhorn barn.
g He was quite, speechless, and it
was not until DR.. Swigart arrived that
he was recognized as Mr.. William
Dalles, an old gentlemen OF 70 years,
who came to Laramie recently, to re-
side with his son Joe Dalles, HOB
South Fifth street, an employee OF the
plaster mills.
From signs made by his father,
Mr.. Joe Dalles was able to make out
that the old gentleman had starred in
from Gray Haley's ranch at Wyo-
ming to bring "a load Of lumber to
town.
Somewhere near the soap works
he had descended to the ground to
push back a stick of the timber that
had worked ahead and was annoying
the horses. AS he put his shoulder
against the timber, one Of the horses
kicked him and knocked him down
under the wheels, then as the team
moved forward, they pulled the wheels
over his head. The physicians found
that besides the cuts aad bruises Mr..
Dalles had sustained a triple frac-
ture of the jaw, which at his advanced
age Is a serious matter.
Last evening the old gentleman was
in great pain but was bearing it
bravely. His son said that it was
much against his will that his father
had gone to the ranch to work, but
he insisted upon doing something.
