Bear Hunt mt Close Rnrxe.

The Ainu bear hunter can put to shame the best modern sportsman, who considers a hundred yards off, with his Winchester, safe distance for shot for such an animal, says the New York Tribune. The Ainu method is thrilling and dangerous. The bears spend their winters in caves and holes. Long poles are pushed inside, and if one Comes out he falls an easy victim to the poisoned arrow; often they are smoked out. When Bruin is first shot, being full of pain, he is savage, and furiously attacks his enemy. Being now at close quarters, the Ainu dis cards his bow and arrow and prepares to make final onslaught upon the creature. The wounded and enraged beast rises upright on his launches. ready to bounce upon his assailant. The Ainu hunter watches his chance to make the fatal thrust At the right time he rushes point blank into the animals embrace and plunges his knife into his body, but does not al- ways escape without reminder of his encounter. He is sure to get severely scratched, frequently scalped, and sometimes killed.

THREE HUNDRED MARINES LANDED
SoIumbia and Newark Fired Upon Insurgents In Return For Their shots at Clyde Line Steam
 CT New York. N aN n.. {

g
 sANTO DOMINGO, Feb. 22.-A de, cisive battle has been fought between the government forces and the insur- gents. 1t extended over two days and has resulted in a complete victory for the government. The siege has been raised and the insurgents are in re treat
 When the Clyde line steamer New York arrived here conveyed by the United States cruiser Newark, Minis ter Powell instructed the captain of the vessel to discharge his cargo at the wharf. An agreement had been made by Minister Powell and Commander Miller with the insurgents and the government that neither party should fire while the New York was at the wharf discharging.
 The government, kept this agreement but the insurgents fired on theSstean1er and on launch from the cruiser Go lumbia which was entering the river l. Eight rifle shots damaged the New York's woodwork, exposing the lives of the passengers and crew.
 The commander of the United States warships then decided to shell Paja- rito, occupied by the insurgents, and to land 300 marines with the object of punishing the insurgents for insulting the United States flag and damaging an American steamer.
 The Newark approached and opened fire, discharging ten shells. The insur- gents fired upon the marines while they were landing, wounding some of them. The marines returned the fire, and the insurgents ran. sa
 The marines landed were divided in to two columns and searched the houses, woods and bushes. They then followed the insurgents, who fired while the marines were reloading.
 The New York left for the roadstead after landing her cargo. s. .s cs.te! .ss
 Reports from the interior are favor able to the government. Great misery existed in the city for want of food The arrival of the Clyde line steamer is therefore great relief. The steam CT could not land a portion of its cargo at Monte Cristi, being prevented from so doing by a Dominican warship.
 It is authoritatively stated that the question of annexation of Santo Do- mingo to the United States never has received the slightest consideration on the part of the American administra- tion. SfF

Burnley Tobacco Interests Will Not
Be Pooled.

The Burley Tobacco Growers
Association has abandoned the eff.
fort to handle the present crop of
tobacco, and will release its mem
bers from the terms OF the existing
contract with the association by
which they were to hold their pro-
duct until such time as the associa-
ton would dispose of it. President
w. B. Hawkins stated that the as
ISOLATION would be kept intact and
that it would be thoroughly fnan-
ced next season, when it will con.
troll, as it expects, the hurley crop.
This action brings TO an end for
this season the controversy in re-
gard to the hurley crop, and it will
find its way TO the market through
other channels.

The news of the action taken by

Louisville Hotel, where Mrs. Neal
had been staying since Saturday
night under the name OF her former
husband, Wood. Mrs. Neal denied
having had improper relations with
James X. Shrader.
81 am guiltless of anything of the
kind, said Mrs. Neal, land any
statement to the contrary is false.
l merely knew Mr.. Shrader to bow
to when saw him in the hotel and
never spoke to him beyond a few
words in the presence of several
other guests of the hotel. My hus-
band told me Saturday morning
that Mr.. Bridwell, proprietor of the
Capital Hotel, had seen me coming
from Mr.. Shrader's room the night
before, and ] told him how untruth-
full the statement was, and then and
there decided to leave him for good.
1 came to the Louisville Hotel and
he called on me there Saturday
night and again on Sunday, saying
he was sorry for what he had said
and asked that come and live with
him at the Willard Hotel. He said
then that he did not believe what
Bridwell had told him, but ] had
made up my mind to leave him and
told him we could no! live together
