NAN AND BEAR FOUGHT.
George Doty Had A Wrestling Match
That Came Near Ending Him.

Saratoga, Tex, June FIX
citing times prevailed in the big
thicket in the vicinity of Saratoga
yesterday. Mr.. George Doty and
a party of men were out gathering
blackberries. The party separated.
Doty, who is a large, powerful
man, struck out for the big thicket,
where the berries are plentiful. He
had not been there very long when
he heard the brush breaking ahead
of him. Thinking it was his party
he paid little or no attention to it,
when all at once out jumped large
female bear. Doty was perplexed
as to what to do, having no arms
to defend himself with, he used his
mind repeatedly. Vines of all de
scription abounded in profusion.
Doty edged his way over to a large
grape vine, thinking that if he
could reach it he would be safe
until help would come, but Mrs.
Bruin checkmated his move and
rushed at him hercely. Doty
grappled with Mrs. Bruin. Then
one of the fercest battles that was
ever witnessed between man and
beast was enacted. The fight at
this time was raging most furious.
The huge beast was hugging Mr..
Doty for all if was worth Mr..
Doty s strength was leaving him,
but by one superhuman effort Doty
struck the bear a powerful blow
with his fist on the nose, stunning
her and causing the bear to fall
down. Grabbing a vine by dex
trous work he succeeded in tying
the bear until he could get a stout
club, which he did, and then beat
the brains out. Doty S strength
was about spent and soon after he
fell to the ground, unable to stand. |
His clothes were all torn off his
back, but he received only a few
flesh wounds, not amounting to
much. The bear weighed someth- |
ing over 500 pounds

The Benent of Fairy Tales.

1t is very reasonable to argue that no
creation of human fancy could last as
fairy tales have lasted through no one
knows how many hundreds and thou
sands OF years unless it was very good.
For that which is not good and not
sound must surely die, and only that
which is good and sound shall last
through the grinding of the ages.
So | believe that parents should fill
their children's imaglnatlons full of
fairy tales il they would make those
imaginations strong and healthy. AS
for that man or woman who has not
these blight and joyous things of fancy
flying like golden bees through the dim
recesses of his memory, can only say
that l think his or her parents must
have been neglectful of the earlier
training of their child and that am
sorry for that poor soul who has lost
so much pleasure out of it's life.-How-

OF every hundred tourists who visit
the Canary islands quite seyenty-five
are British. Naturally, therefore, the
natives Of the Canary Islands take Il
great interest in everything which af-

that their general ignorance Is not a
little less appalling. but their very dis
regard for accuracy lends certain
''charm' to their conversation. A man
in BARRIERS shop pointed to dilapi-
dated map of the world which was
nailed to the wall, and, putting his fore
finger upon Spain, he exclaimed: IF
war breaks out, Spain must retake
Gibraltar. Have no fear. The English
