He Believed The Bear story.

"In Austin one afternoon" says
Senator Bailey, Of Texas, according to
Harper's Weekly, number OF State
Legislators aud not few lawyers
were telling stories Of bear hunting.
A six-footer from the GuadaIoupe
bottoms told story Of slaughter Of
the Brpin family that would have
been calculated TO astonish the late
Baron Munchaueen. The teller of
this story was, of course, the hero Of
the devastation related, aud il seems
pretty clear from his recital that he
had ex.erm:nated ell The bears, once
SO thick, in the dense esnebresks aud
sWampy jungles Of his regicz.
When the eix-footer had finished
his tale there arose chorus OF dis.
sent. Nearly every man present
sWore roundly against the improbable
ity Of the adventures. In fact, sew
eral Of his auditors did not scruple TO
apply plain epithet TO that individ-
ual, and Q general olamor ensued.
Against this rs3uIar verdict there
vas found only one champion. This
was very little man, who up to that
time had not eneksn word.
!" Gentlemen, remarked he, when
the noise had subsidized, Il believe
every word our friend has uttered.
You, are inoredulous simply because
you haven't had mis- opportunities
for alaughteEing big game. Nov,

AZ che end Of the third week we
caught upwith him, our dogs having

closed in on the bear. With the

He claimed to have found number
of the pests, which he exhibited to

few years unless active measures are

derstand the commission announces
that the line Of infection in
Louisiana extends from ten to fifteen
miles further east than 1t did this

The Ready Print Controversy.

The Ready Print Controversy.
The question OF using Ready Print
il by no means new one with the
editor Of the Colfax Chronicle. as he
fully considered this question more
than twenty years ago. and thus far
has no cause to reject the choice then
made. For several years we ran the
Chronicle an all-home-print,b but final
~ decided the paper could be greatly
improved. and so made the change
to the present ready-print insides,
with which none OF our subscribers
have found faultfor the entire twenty
years we have used them. An expert
enced editor who has given the mat
ter lifetime study, has this to say
on the subject, viz:
els 1t better to print small sheet
all at home thnn n fair-sized paper,
halfof which Is Ready Print. We say
emphatically NO" The average
family either In the country towns or
ON the farms require a certain amount
Of reading matter. They want to he
entertained or amused quite an much
as the family In the city. The busy
farmer may not have az much time
for reading as the residentin the city,
but he hassome. and perusal of the
small local paper. with nothing In 1t
but the items Of local news IL not sat
isfytng. He wants something more;
he wants fiction; he wants agricultur-
nj matter; he wants good general ar
ticles on all lines Of subjects; he wants
to keep In touch with the world In all
lines. and 1t Is the province of the
Ready-Print to furnish these things
along with the general news Of the
world. II the local paper does not
give him this class of matter he goes
to the city papers and tn the maya
zines for 1t. but II the local paper will
give 1t to him and 1T the same time
give him the local news 1t Is the ideal
combination he wants.
THAT the all-home-print IL trifie
cheaper to the publisher Ia admitted.
but that the matter contained In the
all-home- print Is equal to or superior
TO the reading that in furnished by
the big publishing houses we do
not admit. For instance. we main
tain that the subscriber for a dollar
gets more solid Information out of a
paper half home news and half news
0f the world, and miscellaneous. than
the all-hoine-print that carries a lot
of foreign advertising to fill up. To
the laboring man, the farmer and the
Sunday render, you will find the
patent" closely perused every week
and there are many excellent features
of 1t that an all-home-print never
has"
