gentlemen were in the initial stages of
the meal and the bottles were opened

The viands were hurriedly packed up
and the party made for the boat with
two huge bears after them. All got
safely aboard, but one big brute
jumped from the hi h bank on to the
bulwarks of the boat and hung on with
his teeth and front claws: He was
knocked off with a pole and lassoed by
l.. Il. Deacon, manager Of the Manitoba
IRON works, member of the commits

Then commenced fierce struggle.
Deacon was almost pulled overheard,
but the rest Of the excited commission.

ceased his struggles. The half-strangled,
half drowned animal was pulled aboard
and was brought to Winnipeg today. It
measured six feet eight inches and
weighed $50 pounds =.
The report of the commission on a
source of water supply will not be made

eventful one, the party being grounde d

of national items such to place agriculture,
and Its claims to the best intelligence and the

against the worship Of manufacture and trade as
the only forms of progressive activity, and the
afaise notion that wealth built upon these nj the

Wan, Birds TO Return.

duce the smaller birds to return to
their old haun,s about the fields. and
for this purpose are setting out boxes
and other artificial devices to serve
the birds for homes. The farmers
need the birds TO destroy the insects.
but the birds are disappearing not
only because OF their direct slaughter.
but also because the old trees. in the
decayed hollows Of which they built
their nests, the old copses which they
haunted. and both OF which were pro-

nant pools which yielded them food
in abundance. are all disappearing be-
