came up Saturday to spend the week in
hunting, and are qusrtered at Newtown
Mills for few days. Mr.. Stewart was
Obliged to return home Sunday evening
on account of the death of a relative. The
party started out hunting Monday morn
ing and after short chase succeeded in
bringing down a fine 2O0-pound black
bear, which they captured on the ridge
between Salmon creek and Lsmentation
run. While they are all considerably
elated and excited over their good for
tune, we can confidently assure their
friends at home that the excitement has
had no bad effect and they will be able
to resume the chase after a short rest.
In some way or other the friends Of
Rev. J. F. Scherer, of the Endeavor Pres
byterian church, learned that Monday
was his birthday, and lest he might him
self overlook the fact, they worked little
"reminder" on him in the form ofs sur
prise. In the evening about s o'clock he
was induced to step into kindergarten
hall and on entering he found himself in
the presence of a very large company of
friends. So complete was the surprise
that the popular parson was rendered
well nigh speechless, and when you catch
him in this condition you may calculate
that you are "going some," so to speak.
A most bountiful spread was served, and
the evening was very eDJoyably spent in
social way, at the conclusion of which a
handsome purse of money was presented
to the honor guest, besides large num-
Der of other gifts of beauty and value.
Mr.. Scherer ex pressed his gratitude and
pleasure in his usual happy style, having
by this time recovered his composure.
