,Jnromantic End Of Wedding Arranged

There is an old story OF the era

mother OF one Count Kinski had ar

ChOkED BEAR TO DEATH.
After Lively Chase Arizona Cattle
man Kills Bruin with
Lariat.

Prescott, Ariz.-John Bozarth, a
we'll known cattle man from the Camp
Wood country, had rather lively ex-
perience with bear near Loco creek a
efw days ago. While on a ride he
sighted Bruin and gave chase.
After running him considerable dis
lance the bear showed fight and cut a
cash in the flank of his horse about four
inches in length. He threw his lariat.
which landed around the neck of the
bear, and had him choked to death in
short order. He states that bear is
just as easily choked with a rope as
steer, especially when the bear is fat.
1t weighed 300 pounds and was of the
silver tip variety. This is the largest
bear seen in that locality for number
of years. Mr.. Bozarth was unarmed and
had to depend on his rope and horse en-
tirely in the struggle.

Pursuing the thought q the need
Of a wise guardian fol. tho unguided
child, the suggestion is made that it
be the duty Of a city's chief of police
to instruct "the finest" that they COM
port themselves towards the street
Arabs in a manner paternal, that they
make superhuman effort to look upon
them as boys rather than embryo
criminals. Once before in these COL
umns we referred to what is known as
the Indianapolis plan of work among
boys lacking proper home influences;
in which plan, citizens of high char
acter each takes it upon himself to act
the part Of guardian to some individual
lad for a specified time, look after his
physical, moral and mental welfare,
try to give him lift in life. The In
dianapolis plan has met with success,
the moet valuable.
Another suggestion of value is one
wherein the public school is to be 50
changed that here, too, the individual
Coy may receive some attention, not
be merely one of mass. And in con-
nection with this idea there arises the
request for more ungraded rooms,
rooms where the backward boy may
receive the consideration he misses in
the present overcrowded ward school.
In Chicago, workers among the de-
pendents and delinquents are asking
for an enlargement of the parental
school, demanding that boys of this
class be kept out of the city institu-
ton that is really a prison; declare
that the lads are not criminals, but
"sick,' in need of hospital, not
prison.

Judge Tuthll gives us further
cause for thought when he calls at
tention to the influence of the police
as whole on crime among boys. He
bids us consider the attitude of aver
age policemen, their general gruffness
and roughness; it is a question wheth-
er the attitude is owing to their con-
ception of impressing authority, or
owing their pride in this author
ity, an authority they wish ever
to keep on show. Whatever the mo-
tive, the results are pretty hard on the
street boy; he regards men Of the
force as his natural enemies.
The odds are against the boy, the
street boy. Just little indulgence in
boyish mischievousness, ebullition of
youthful spirits, and down comes the
arm Of the law.
One thing seems firmly implanted in
the heart of boy-good boy, bad"
boy, rich boy, poor boy, every kind of
boy-and that is passion for
justice, hot anger against injustice.
The policeman makes a mistake in
nabbing the boy; the boy never for

who has brought hundreds of beasts to

owner, shipped the creatures
When three days cut the Pallanza
was overtaken by furious storm. The
freight liner bobbed like a cork, and
the cages on the upper deck, where the
animals had been placed for fresh air,
tugged at their lashings.
The lioness showed the greatest ter
ror. She roared every time a wave
combed over, and hurled herself at the
bars. A big, comber finally hurtled
against the cage and overturned it.
The beast got out and rushed down the
slippery deck, Keeling and plunging as
the ship ducked and rose The seamen
fled, with the animal in pursuit. She
rushed at them, but, unable to keep a
straight course, failed to do any harm
The men went below, while the
liOness ruled the deck. Her roars rum
bled above the shrieking wind. When
her rOars showed that she was near

man, lodged up the ccmpanionway and
formed in line with long spears. They
bore down on the l;oness and gradu-
ally forced her into corner. Now
and then she would attempt to spring
past the outstretched weapons, but the
sting of the steel sent her back
A Zig net, such as is used in India
to snare wild animals, was placed on
the spears. 1t was then pushed over
the crouching beast and, under Oster-
mans guidance, so twisted that the
lione5s became helpless. She was
dragged gingerly to the cage, and once
again inside her prison was bound
with ropes.
1t is remarkable that the lioness, un-
der the handicap of a slippery deck,
was lot swept overheard. After the
storm subsided she lay quietly in the
cage, subdued by fright, and refused to
touch meat for two days.
Osterman, who plainly showed the
effects of his scare, said that when ne

cages will be SO protected that a
craftsman couldn't open one.
