down through the orchard on n tour

an apple tree. while marin bear is down
on the ground keeping watch. Now
Joe's got lots of sand and he rather
made up his mind that he'd get that
bear. as bear steak was always his
favorite. All he had for a weapon
was stout club. which he picked up
on the ground. Joe sails into the old
bear with the club. 1t is Il dangerous
game. but Joe thinks it's worth while.
But as he pelts the bear over the head
he let's out a below to his wife:

some cartridges. I've got bear treed!'

is to keep up the battle and hope for

Mary, bring that gun!'

YARNS OF A GUIDE.
Stories by Fred Cohoon, the
Hunter of Rebel Hill.
The Case Of Buck Fever Which
Seized a City Guy.
An Encounter with a Bear-Hunting
Poreupines.

Bangor. Nov. 11-(SpeciaD.-When
Fred Cohoon comes in from his shoot
ing resort at Rebel Hill it is al
ways safe to look for some in
teresting yarns of shooting and
fishing. Cohoon isn't one of those
old fellows who have been hunt
ing, trapping and fishing all over
Maine for the past 80 or 60 years, but
is a young man, just in the prime Of
life, who likes the woods and who has
taken to it for a living and for good
health, both of which he is getting.
He is chock full Of that something
which we call good nature and is q
natural story teller, as we'll as being
able to see the amusing side of most
any incident, be it afield or afloat. 1t
is these qualities which nave made him
general favOrite with those who
know him and have brought him much
business as guide, for he is a regis
tered guide and q good one, too.
TO meet and talk with him most peo-
pie would say that he was one of the
reckless kind of men in the woods.
But he isn't. 1t is one of his rules new
err to shoot until he knows what he is
shooting at. Only once has he broken
this rule and that time he knew abb
solutely that what he was shooting at
was not a man, but some kind of an
animal. Connected with it was a very
amusing incident.
He was guiding a man out around

THE JOKE OF A KING.
Historic Hoax Perpetrated by Gusta-

Historic Hoax Perpetrated by Gusta-
vus III. CT Sweden.
King Gustayus Ill of Sweden had
been frequently invited to the little
court of Schwerin. In 1888 he paid
visit to Germany and as soon as the
Duchess of Mecklenburg heard of his
approach she prepared fetes in his
honor. But Gustavus, who disdained
the petty courts of the small rulers,
sent two of his attendants-a page
named Peyron, and DesvouGes, a valet
who had formerly been an actor-to be
entertained by the duchess. The two
personated the king and his minister,
Baron Spare, and sustained the char.
acters throughout. They accepted as
their due all the homage meant for
their master, danced with the Mecklen-
burg ladies who were presented to
them, and Peyron went so far as to
ask one Of the ladies for her portrait.
Meantime Gustayus was enjoying him
self elsewhere in secret.

An exchange admonishes woman to
weep in memory q the man who in
vented the tissue paper dress pattern.
He is dead; yet will his work live
after him. Several hundred years
ago some individual whose name Fate
has since frowned upon invented a
basque pattern. To this very day, in
the rural districts, may be seen its
likeness on feminine busts. What
manner of forgetfulness, then, snail
cause our minds to wander from the
man who originated the complete
tissue pattern in the latest style for
10 cents?" Between the two patterns
there is social chasm as bottomless
as a Dante could conceive, and yet
the parallel of constancy to each may
be appropriately drawn. The tissue
pattern develops furbe,ows and
fiounces wonderful even to the cos
tuners art. It's product is seen on
the fashionable boulevards as fire.
quently as the basque-pattern's polka
dot vies in pastoral hamlets where
Mirandy wears a calico sun-bonnet,
and little Willie's sweater is a grain
sack with holes for the neck and arms.
In their strata of life each is in
valuable. Without them are dress
makers bills that mesmerize the banl
account, put crimps in papa's whis
kers and scare the romantic Montgom
erys from the lamp of matrimony, lest
they perish like pillars of salt in
cow-lick, sacrifices on the altar Of
love.
The provident wife will never hest
tate. She will use one or the other,
and, incidentally, will not forget, fig
uratively, to drop a flower on the
tomb of the man who invented the
old basque pattern, or his more recent
brother, the genus homo who con-
ceived the tissue diagram.

Uncle Toms Cabin" has been
barred from the New York school
libraries. One by one the atrocious
iconoclast is devasting old land
marks. Irving's to-day is being push
ed aside by tomorrow, to be in turn

not always is judgment used. The
enemies who marched against "Uncle

The young woman who bet 1000
kisses on election and lost to young
man grasping enough to claim the en-
tire 1000, is no longer the limit In
an Illinois town an editor ran for
mayor. How he secured the nOmina-
ton is not known, but it is presumed
nobody was looking at the time.
There lived in the place an amorous
young woman who bet that an editor
couldn't be elected to SO important
civic position. So positive was she
in her horoscope analysis that she
wagered a wheel-barrow ride with a
young man of the town. The loser
was to wheel the winner through the
main street in a mud" cart. The
woman's foresight was not as good as
her hindsight, and she lost, making
good her bet after the horrid winner
had insisted. A great crowd gathered
to see the sight. Fancy woman
pushing a man-laden wheelbarrow the
length of the business street, Those
who saw the fiasco say she squared
away nobly in the muddy street, spat
on her hands, rolled up her-well, this
thing has gone far enough But it is
surmised that hereafter she will be
less positive in her powers of
prophecy.
