 The approach of the bears. which were of the large brown variety, was heralded by a herd of cows that had been driven along by the bears. The lowing of the cattle attracted the at tentlon of farmers, some of whom made rush for shotguns or whatever weapons was most handy.
 In the meantime the bears stopped long enough on the outskirts of Belle fonte to devour several pigs. The bears then pursued their way leisurely to town.
 The bears stopped in front of milli- nery store and with wild shrieks the women attendants fled leaving the latest creations in Paris headgear to the mercy of bruin.
 From Bellefonte the bears proceed ed to Farransville, a suburb of Belle fonte. where an unsuccessful attempt was made by party of farmers to stop them. With loud shorts, they turned on the farmers, who fed. The bears made no effort to follow. but turned their attention to horse which had

High Honor to Carnegie by Iron and
 Steel Institute.

New York, Oct 24.--The opening exercises of the American meeting of the Iron and Steel Institute, the sec. ,ond meeting which this international organization has ever held on American soil, was held tonight

It's membership being chiefly made up of Englishmen. The award tonight was made because of his life work in the development of the iron and steel industry in the world. ,.- , .s4.. ...
 President Fornes of the Board of AL dermen on behalf of Mayor Mcclellan welcomed the foreign visitors to this city MT. Carnegie, in reply. returned thanks for the cordial invitation ex- tended. After referring to the meeting held here fourteen years ago, he said:
 Upon our last visit the institute was amazed at your extraordinary develop ment, but they find today that rapid as that has been, It has proceeded at even quicker paces since then. The rgures are positively staggering Your product of pig iron the year we visited you. 1890. was 9.200,0OO tons; in 1903
  teen years 1t has doubled. In bessemer steel, production has much moro than doubled, and in open hearth steel the increase is more than eleven fold. from half million tons in 1890 to nearly 6,00O,000 tons in 1903. Your export trade in manufactures has increased nearly three fold. In the decade 1890 to 1900 you added 1S,5OO,o00 to your population and the national wealth has Increased from sixty-five to ninety-fou billions of dollars. No wonder we come to see for ourselves and study such portentous growth.
 There Is but one source of intense satisfaction open to our British mem pers Tn doing so, for they cannot fail t) remember that while to you is to De credited the development of the iron and steel industry here, 1t is to their older land that you are indebted for the inventions which have rendered such wonderful development possible. The institute congratulates the republic upon this surprising increase"

CHARGE ON LYNCHING
arATEsBORo HORROR NOT YET AT
 A AN END.
Judge Daly Says It h the Duty of the Bulloch Grand Jury to Indict All Who Are Impli-
 cated

Statesboro. Ga, Oct. 24.--Judge A. F. Daly charged the grand jury of Bullocn County today that 1t was their duty to Indict the lynchers of Cato and Reed. He said all who participated in that mob were guilty of murder. the same as Reed and Cato, the difference being that the former were bolder than the lat ter. Judge Daily said. in part:
 'If you do not intend to respect your oaths in this matter. you have no busi- ness in this body. As result of this lynching crime has been rampant in the Middle Circuit. The lawless ele- ment. it seems, is composed of men who are considered good citizens, and there was no excuse for this crime The law had been promptly applied and l congratulate your entire bar of at forneys. They did not take advantage Of technicalities to delay the law.
 One crime car not compensate for another This crime is not against Reed and Cato so much as against the law. It is to be regretted that the military failed to do it's duty. At the courtrnartial there was an effort by the militia to blame the civil authorities for the lynching. and even they acs cused the court of. complicity. This was simply an effort to get. out of trouble. You know whether the court and civil officers were guilty.
 If you find that the court or any ofiicer is guilty. 1t is your duty to re- turn Indictments. We are not exempt The courtmartial produced evidence that some of your citizens were leaders of the mob, and if you find this to be true, you must indict them. If you TO- turn the indictments, will see that the men have prompt and fair trial, and believe your petit jurors will re- turn true verdicts."

This link Is between Kansas City and Whit ing. l. T. It will take 10000 barrels of oil to fill this before the oil begins to run at Kansas City.

 The Russian batteries are now bet ter screened than they were In former engagements. but the troops .on hott sides apparently mako no great efforts to conceal themselves. The Russian and Japanese armies are now separated by less than four miles and the whole field of operations of both armies car be plainly seen.
 The question of fuel is becoming g serious one. The greater part of the Chinese corn has already been used for fuel. and for fodder, while most of the houses in the Chinese villages have been destroyed and their wood used for fuel.
 Without fuel and without shelter be- yond that provided by tents, it seems impossible for the armies to remain in the field during the increasing cold weather.

 Columbus. O.. Oct. 34.-Senatci Charles w. Fairbanks of Indiana, Re- publican nominee for Vice-President I concluded a strenuous day of cam paigning with a speech tonight in the Columbus Auditorium before an audi | ence which packed the floors and galle- ries of that building. Throughout his tour of Ohio. which began across the Ohio River from Wheeling and ended in the capital city tonight. the Senator was accompanied by Governor Myron T.

Zanes- vile. Coshocton. Newark and Patakala. Michigan will be traversed by Sena : tor Fairbanks tomorrow. The first speech Is expected to be made at Mon- roe very early in the morning. At the meeting tonight in the Colum- bus Auditorium Senator Fairbanks spoke in part as follows:
 We make no claims in behalf of Republican policies and Republican ad- ministration which are not justified by actual experience. and we make no charges against Democratic policies
 
 are not fully warranted. The Demo- cratic. party criticizes Republican ex- penditures, but its criticisms are vague; they are quite indefinite. The fact is that public expenditures have been measured by our public require ments. They have no more than kept pace with our rapid development. An expanding nation must not hesitate to make all of those outlays which safety and the prompt and successful dispatch of the public business require. We should pursue no niggardly policy and should not hesitate to mees fully the public needs.
 Our Democratic friends indulge in extravagant and unfounded state- ments, not only with respect to cx- penditures in the United States. but with respect to expenditures in the Philippines. The foremost leaders of Democracy persistentIy claim that We have, expended $650, 100000 in the arch ipelago. Some even assert that the amount will approximate twelve hun dred millions of dollars. The records of the War Department show that both of these statements arc grossly inac- curate. The total expenditures in the archipelago is less than two hundred millions of dollars.
 We should bear in mind that the expense of the civil administration is borne entirely from the insular treasu- ry. The opposition seems anxious to create an issue in the Philippines which will arrest public attention and divert it from the disastrous record of the last Democratic administration anc from the contemplation of the unsound policies of the Democratic party in ths United States. Let us beware that oui minds are not drawn from the consid eration of those great domestic prob. lems which vitally concern our future commercial and industrial prosperity our national strength and honor.'
