He was severely questioned by Re

Drag the Bay In Vain.
Practically every inch Of the bot
tom of the bay has been dragged in
the effort to find the body of Chief
Biggy. The failure to locate the body
lends strength to the theory that pos
sibly Chief Biggy may be alive and
by this time, far from the troubled
scene of the sensational San Francis

The affairs Of Chief Biggy have
caused much surprise, for he was ap
pointed to Office by Mayor Edwart

mighty few men are good players
Of both checkers and poker" said
Uncle lack Rogers pensively. so 1t
seems to me that Elder Allison was
harsh in his severe condemnation OF
his pet bear when he found that once
pious animal had mixed up the two
games. The bear might have been
redeemed from paths OF sin If the
elder hadn't been 80 hasty. AS 1t was,
the bear, after enduring few hard
Bullets from the good elder, fled to
a life of careless vicS. And he was
such a good bear at first.
Elder Allison had picked up the
bear when only a cub in the woods
one day. Some hunters had shot
it's mother, and it was very hungry
and lonely furry baby. The elder took
the bear home with him. fed him, and
sort of adopted him as member OF
the family. When the bear began to
grow a little it was evident that all
bets on bear intelligence wanted to be
coppered if they were made against
the elders pet. He had the rest OF
his kindred chained to the post when
1t came to knowing how to do things,
and to do them we'll. Ordinary bear
tricks were so easy for that intelli-
gent animal that he never had to be
shown them more than once; but

said they were frivolous and an abom-
ination to the truly good And Elder
Allison ranked class A in that divi-
sion.

diversion, and that was playing check.

game of checkers he was happy
man, especially if there was small
bet on the side. Some of the church
people were sort OF scandalized at
the elders taking these bets; but the
good man defended himself against
any charge of gambling.
whats your definition of gam

minister, when that worthy man took
him to task for betting ON his favorite
game.
Gambling is betting on game Of

That was what thought myself. Well,
it isn't any game of chance when the
