COOL AND FAIR EASTER
Weather Prophet Smiles or Hats,
bat the Winds May Bloc.

unless the elements are holding back trump
card to play against the weather prophet in the
eleventh hoT, the weather predicted for to-
day Will be ideal. The local fOrecaster prom
ises cool and fair Easter. But while this gem
eral forecast may be true. 1t is not unlikely that
the little deceptive gusts that carried hats sky
ward yesterday may prevail, to-day and hurl an
occasional puff OF dust against frock coats aud
silk hats. AS the cool temperature precludes the
possibility Of rain, It is safe bet that the ex-
pensive creations on the heads Of women will
survive the day.
Flowers Of all sorts were sold rapidly yester-
day. Many ported plants that had stood long
and bravely on the sidewalks wilted with the
setting sun and their prices went down from y

me OF an invalid that has been filled With nitro

Bermuda, brought only $50 boxes making

three hours after the steamer dOcked. Cold
weather retarded the growth OF the Bermuda

BEAR UP A TREE.
Oyster Bay Enjoys NoueI Hunt
Bruin Caught bar Diplomacy.

Oyster Bay, Long Island, March 30.-A big dark
brown bear owned by Bradford Weekes and his
brother Harold. who have bachelor quarters on
west Main street, which was kept chained to a
stump. broke it's bonds early this afternoon and
made straight for tail tree that stands in front
OF the Weekes house.
1t took a very short time for the whole VII
rage to learn that the bear was loose. and the
population swarmed-to the scene. All kinds OF
suggestions were made as 70 the best way to
get the animal down. and at last Dan Smith.
who is looked upon as something Of a cowboy
having once been In the far West, thought he
would try his hand at lassoing the bear. But
although Smiths efforts were creditable, they
failed as Mr.. Bruin clambered up higher out OF
reach
Then some one suggested that fire be used 20
scare the bear out OF the tree and this idea
was adopted. A ladder was procured also
long POLE TO the end of which was tied bunch
OF rags saturated with kerosene OIL Smith took
the pole torch, and. ascending the ladder poked
me blazlng rags at the bear. but Bruin, instead
OF coming down, only grOwled and went higher
him.
BY this time the weeles brothers had got
nome: ana one of them said he guessed he
would have TO shoot the bear. He got his gun,
but his nerve failedg At last diplomacy was
resorted 10. Food was placed near the foot of
the tree, and the smell so appealed 70 the
animal that 1t brought him eaTthward. AT this
nearly every one remembered things that had
to be done at home. and they disappeared in
all directions. The bears "den" IS not far
from the tree, and the Weekes brothers planted
two rows of heavy boxes from the front Of the
tree to the den so to form a passage
along which Bruin could pass to his home.
Along this passage were scattered appetizing
Jumps of meat. When the bear landed on the
ground he promptly seized the first piece with
his teeth and gobbled it down. Then he went
to the second piece. and so on. until he finally
reached his den and entered Il. Then stout
