page of the paper up, where there
should have been three pages. During

BULLION
Explanation OF Suspension OF Coinage
at Philadelphia Mint

Washington, Aug. 16.-The suspen-
sion Of gold and silver coinage at the
Philadelphia mint, beginning tomor-
row, is explained at the treasury de-.
partment by the statement that the
stock Of silver bullion is entirely ex.
hausted, and there is no call at present
for gold or minor coins. Some time in
October, II is thought, the accumula.
tlon Of uncurrent silver will warrant
the resumption for a time Of recoinage
of silver dollars into subsidiary coins,
as has been proposed. The outlook for
continued active operations ut the
Philadelphia mint are not regarded as
good.
During the coming suspension OF
coinage, the mint will be open TO re.
ceive deposits Of gold bullion, as usual.

Trouble Was Bruin.

sumpter, Or, Aug. 16.-A party Of
campers near here have just had a
unique experience with a black bear
during their sojourn in the woods. IL
was while the men folks were away
from the camp, and II was defended
only by two frail women, that the mon
arch Of the forest made his appearance.
The women had gathered a bucketful
Of luscious huckleberries, and to these
the bear Immediately laid claim. With
fear and trembling the women watched
the beast devour the fruit Of their toll.
They dared not run for fear that in
their flight they might attract tho at
tention Of the bear to themselves, and
thus furnish another delightful morsel
for his ravenous stomach.
After the berries were finished the
animal proceeded to help himself to
other eatables in the camp larder. He
tore the -four sack, to pieces, and when
he finished looked nor like his polar
brothers than aboriginal Of these
woods. After having eaten his Ill,

BooKKEEPERs PLAY BALL.
Take the State House People Into
Their Camp Easily.

By a score of Is to 5, and amidst the
greatest excitement, the bookkeepers
took the Capitols into camp last night
on the varsity field. There was )blen.
ty Of brilliant playing and heavy hit
ting, and some that was not 30 bril-.
liant, but, amid it all, the greatest fea.
ture of the game was Gatens. The gen.
ial "Irishman" was certainly the whole
show, and if it had not been for him
the crowd would have demanded their
money back at the box office. If his
team lost it was not because he did not
talk enough, for he was everywhere all
the time, and keeping up one continu.
GUS string of talk.
Although this was the first victory
for the ~ink-daubers, they certainly had
everything their own way last night,
and put up such an article of ball as to
cause many to pick them as the win
ners Of the series. First Baseman Riggs
up the brilliant part of the
performance by swatting the norsehide
over the fence and trotting around the
bags for a home run. This was re-
by Damon, who put the ball
over the center fielder. Charley
King, who was in the box, plainly had
better of Kozier, his opponent, and
the Capitols guessing all the time.
The next game Of the series will be
Friday evening, and will DO be-
tween the Bankers and the Merchants.
