OF members of the "drujina" are al

have lost heart and the workmen's
council is considering the question of
calling off the strike.
The principal danger now seems to
be that the BLACK hundreds will
complete the work begun by the
troops and end the revolt with hor
rible massacre. The lower classes are
represented as enraged at the attempt
of the revOlutionaries to overthrow
the emperor and even with the best
intentions it may be impossible for
the authorities to restrain the fury of
these classes once the opportunity is
offered them. The attacks made on
striking railroad men at wayside sta
tons sufficiently shows the temper
of the peasant class.
Four thousand strikers marched out
of Moscow and completely destroy

"John L." a Splinter.

AL Ellison, who has an established
reputation rs bear hunter, located
the den of genus Ursus on the west
efn slope Of Burro mountain early
this week.
Two visits to the habitat Of Mr..
Bear found him out, but AL left his
card, with word that he would re-
turn next day (last Wednesday,,
and pay his respects, after the. man
ner Of all duly and truly" initiated
bear hunters.
On appearing at the scene Of ac-
tion las 1t were) Wednesday morn
ing, accompanied by four fully initi-
Ated bear dogs and candidate for
Initiation, AL turned the bunch loose
and started them into the shear
patch" The most eager for the fray
was the "candidate"-af ull-grown
pup, named "John L. Sullivan"
This time Bruin was lat home" and
he had company. There was some
thing doing Immediately. The first
thing AL saw was John L." emerg-
ing from the brush as though he had
been canned" and headed for home.
The bear was close second, followed
by two of the dogs, who were worry
ing him as much as possible. The
race was a pretty one, and 1t was evil
dent, In SO far as "John L." was con-
cerned, it was not to be thrown"
After enjoying the sprint" for few
minutes, a we'll directed bullet from
Mr.. Ellison's rifle, stopped Mr.. Bruin,
but "John L." couldn't apply his air
brakes, and kept agoing for some
distance.
When the hide was stretched on
the Cross - z fence It measured eight
feet from nose to tip Of the abbrevia-
ted tail-~and John L." evidently
thought 1t was larger.
The other two dogs got after the
other bear, who judging from his
tracks, was still larger. The dogs
kept after him for twenty-four hours
when they returned to the ranch foot
sore and tired. But as the ''bogy-
man" always gets bad boys-Al will
get that other bear.
