Only one real trouble came to blight
the lives of the cubs, says A. w.
Rolker in October McClure's. President
Roosevelt presented the dens with a
young black bear Caught in West
Virginia. who was named Jonathan"
and put in the den with Bounce and
Towser. Jonathan was a degraded
ruffian, a savage from the backwoods
devoid of every instinct of a gentle
man. Among all the bears in the den,
however, only Bounce and TowSer
were small enough for him to maltreat.
He loved to see them huddled on top
of each other, to listen to them spin"
and to see them lie with dozy eyes and
devout expressions, one because the
itch in his ears was stilled, and the
other because the exercise helped his
teeth. He would steal softly behind
them, hit each a cuff alongside of
the ear, and beat hasty retreat to
laugh at his mischief from the rocks
in the far end of the court while the
cubs picked themselves up, blinked,
and resumed their exercise. They stood
this patiently for many months, and
got so used to it they missed it when
Jonathan failed to cuff; but all the
time they were growing strong and
sturdy and ready for Jonathan, till
the day of reckoning came.
One daY Jonathan cuffed and re-
treated as usual Bounce and his
brother picked themselves up and ad-
vanced for a hearing. Bounce went
for the black bears forepaws, Towser
for his heels. The strong youngsters
worried him round and round himself,
directing him nearer the big swimming
tank in the center of the court, till,
with a grunt and a splash, he fell
in. Wherever he put paw on an en-
bankment, there was one of the cubs
with his teeth. AT the end of an hour
the keeper interfered and rescued
Jonathan; but to this day, when the
two young bears see a good chance
they worry the black bear in for a
swim, and Jonathan is the most mis-
cradle bear in New York.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Chicago Daily News Qnd) says:
IF the Canadian government does
things so much better than we do, as
loyal Canadians claim, it has a chance
to show its ability at the $780,"
The Knoxville Sentinel Dem.) saws:
Mr.. Carnegie, no doubt, is very well
satisfied that he took $500, 000, 900 first
mortgage bonds of the United States
Steel Company, instead of preferred or
common stock"
The Washington Post Qnd.) says: ut
is strange that, in all these discussions
of Mr. Bryans probable attitude to-
ward this or that Democratic nominee
next year-though the fact of any dis
cussion at all is too amazing for words
lit is strange, we say, that the parties
to the controversy should overlook the
only point of Importance in the whole
connection. Mr.. Bryan has no follow
ing of consequence. His personal OBJ
lection unsustained by some argument
calculated to appeal to party feeling
would carry no sort of weight. The
only event in which he might enter a
protest to which any one would listen
seriously must be created by the Demo-
cratic Convention ITSELF
The Chicago Inter Ocean, (Rep.) says:
''The grand jury at Wilmington, Del,
announces that it has decided to ignore
the evidence against the members of
the mob which burned at the stake the
murderer of young woman there. The
grand jury thus puts the stamp of Off
cial approval upon the substitution of
private vengeance for legal punishment
and of lawlessness for law. While
there was no doubt of the negro muir
derer's guilt, the community owed to
him, and more especially to itself, that
his guilt should be declared and his
punishment decreed and executed by
due process of law. In a community
which fails to pay that debt, even to its
worst member. and more especially to
itself, real liberty no longer exists, be-
cause the law. without which liberty is

Paid To BE Pretty.

1t pas a woman to be pretty some
times, says the Chicago Record Herald.
Being pretty saved a woman's life
last week. She was playing whist at
an evening party, and it was natur-
ally supposed that she knew how to
play or she wouldn't have sat into
the game. She was SO distractingly
pretty that every man there wanted
to be her partner. Her first remark
was that she just loved whist.
Let me see. Is this strict whist or
just little social gamer" Then came
the inevitable question: What is
trumps?"

"Oh, do you lead trumps?"
Lead from your long suit"
But l haven't any. There isn't a
long suit in my hand Oh, is a king
worth more than an ace in whist

the right bower; is it any good? How
do you signal? By opening and clos
ing you hand? Oh what a goose

trumps. Oh, mustn't talk, you'll think
l don't know how to play. What

And every man present looked as if
really enjoyed it.

The Mighty Huntsm q N.

1t CHANGED one day that Col. MINI
rod. the huntsman, was out with his
double-barrel shotgun and nothing but
bird shot for ammunition, says the
Chicago Tribune.
While he was scanning the bushes
for his feathered quarry, his ears were
assailed by fierce, angry screams. Look
ing up, he beheld a tremendous eagle
swooping toward him.
Instantly bethinking himself of his
lack of suitable ammunition for cop
ing with the eagle, he threw himself
into a posture of defense and await
ed the onslaught. The eagle was an
immense bird, measuring ten or twelve
feet from tip to tip. and with strength
in proportion.
1t neared Col. Nimrod, but he did
not retreat. Instead, he concentrated
his mental power in the gaze of his
fearless eyes, and by his silent, cour-
ages attitude he made the eagle quail.
Then he shot the quail.

NV Indy Violin.

From Pearson's for October. -
1 know a witch; small, frail and brown
is she,
With slender throat and form of Gu
rious grace.
I see her standing in the haunted
gloom,
Vague phantom voices lure me to
the place.
She draws me to her with a mystic
charm.
With dream-din eyes lean upon her
breast:
And then she sings to me-soft,
strange, sweet melodies
Caressing all my unrest into rest.
And remember all that have missed,
But am content: I will no longer
seek.
And 10! golden dawn creeps through
my heart,
For she has taught my voiceless soul
to speak.

SOUTHERN LUMBER INTERESTS.

At the recent meeting of the Ma
tional Wholesale Lumber Dealers As
ISOLATION. Secretary Perry read a paper
that contained the following interest
ing paragraph;
''Lumbermen are fast turning to the
South. Operators have entered this field
so quietly that attention has not been
attracted; but the fact is their inter
ests are scattered through West Vir-
ginia, North and South Carolina, Geor-
gia, Tennessee, Mississippi and Louisi-
ana. A very large amount of timber,
largely spruce. comes from West Nfr-
ginia, and the yellow pine Of the South
has its own growing market The lun1-
Der interests are looking more and
more to the South. With the exception
of the Northwest, it is the numbering
section of the future"
The South has been large producer
of lumber for a good many years, but
during the past ten years the lumber
industry has increased enormously.
Travelling on any OF the railroads of
the South, one finds sawmills and dry
kilns almost everywhere. while at the
ports there are wharves piled high
with the product ready for shipment
by vessel Many of the men or firms
that are operating the new mills in the
South are those that developed
the lumber business in and de-
yastated the forests of the Middle West,
and the performance will probably be
i Al, s,An
taken to provide for reforesting. How
ever, we have still many acres and
miles of forest lands that may be safe
ly devoted to the lumber interest with
out threatening a change of climate and
rainfall: and when these lands have
will become the productive farms of
desirable class of white immigrants.
That the white immigration move
ment into the South has started, and
in considerable proportions, is asserted
by the Manufacturers Record to be
fact shown by statistics of the census
and other authoritative data. Farm
ers followed the lumbermen in the Mid
die West, and now that section is pros
porous; farmers will follow the lumber
men in the South. and we shall have
similar results here.
Meanwhile the South is second only
to the Northwest as d numbering field
and the demand for its lumber is in
creasing. We shall see the business
much larger before it becomes smaller;
and Savannah, the seaport of the South
Atlantic, will handle a very large pro-
portion of the South's lumber that is
shipped by sea.

A couple of Wall street men leaned
over the rail of the Monmouth, taking
more interest in Mr.. Morgan than in

at the Corsair, idly quoted the phrase

The omnibus driver is nothing if not
gallant. according to the London Chron-
icle. During the recent high winds a
young lady seated on an omnibus had
her hat suddenly swept off by the
breeze. The horses were stopped and
in an instant an active young man had
swung himself down in pursuit, while
the owner of the hat sat confused and
blushing. The driver, however, rose to
the occasion. Never mind, miss
there's a good cad of air under it,

lucky headgear for the battered condi-
ton in which is was finally rescued

druf without Herpicide.

Did you ever see any one trying to
wash themselves without soap or

of him?

rid of dandruff and to prevent bald
ness by feeding the germs which cause
it with Canthrarides. Vaseline, Glycer-
inc and similar substances which form
the principal ingredients of most So
called Hair Vigors.
Newbro's Herpicide is successful be-
cause it attacks and kills the parasitic

TO MARCH ON AUGUSTA.

Gallant veterans of the Confederacy
are looking forward to their reunion
in Augusta On Nov. 10 they are to
gather there, and not until Nov. 10
has passed will the business of the
Georgia veterans and the enjoyment
that is awaiting them be over.
Throughout Georgia the camps have
begun making preparations to send
their delegations, and the indications
are that there will be a large attend
ance. despite the up-piling years and
the gradually thinning ranks of those
who followed 'Marse Robert" and the
other grand commanders of the Con-
federate forces.
Because of the fact that the reunion
city stands on the border of the two
states, South Carolina is included in
the arrangements that are in progress
in Augusta. That city's hospitality is
great enough to embrace the veterans
of the entire South, so those of Geor-
gia and South Carolina need not feel
that it will be strained in their ac-
commodation. Without stint it will
be extended. OF that the various com
mittees at work give every assurance,
and the old comrades of prospective
visitors declare that nothing will be
left undone for their entertainment.
Pathetically the numbers of the vet
Grams of the Confederacy are growing
fewer. At each reunion fine old SOL
diers peer about, looking anxiously for
a comrade they had seen but the year
before. A question is asked, and the
sorrowful reply is given. The last roll
call has been answered, and a recruit
from the. Confederate living has gone
to join the greater army of the Con-
federate dead.
Always has the South honored her
heroes, and always will she honor
them. Yet their gradual passing rem
defs those that are left the dearer
to their sons and daughters, while the
memory of those that have answered
the call is loved the more
Noble as were the men of the Con-
federacy, no less noble were its women
Marking this nobility of the men is
plan that will meet their consider
alton at the Augusta reunion. To the
glorious women of Georgia it is design
ed to erect monument To what
deeper virtues, to what grander cour-
age, to what sweeter sipirts could men,
orial marble pay tribute than to those
devoted women? In song and in story
their fame will survive. but let the
purity of marble, the work of the he
roes whom the women loved, testify
to the nobility of those daughters of
Georgia.
