peal Section 1880, r. L., that it be re-
ferred to the Judiciary committee. |
Sheldon wanted to know for what rea-
son. Kaleiopu declared for the reason
that it was a judicial matter. Never
theless the lands committee in its re-
port made no statement as to why it
referred the matter to the Judiciary
committee. Speaker Holstein read the
rule affecting the case which involves
the duty of committees in searching
diligently after facts bearing on the
proper handling Of their reports Shell
don finally moved the adoption of the
report, probably to save talk, for there
were many who had signs of something

that it appeared in this case childish

| fee industry. introduced by Alfonso,
begs to report that in consideration OF
previous exemption from taxes granted
the coffee industry by former legisla-
lures, through which the production OF
coffee has been materially aided in
becoming an established industry, and
also owing to the fact that further eX-
emption will tend to decrease the re-
venue of the Territory, the COMMITTEES
has decided to recommend that action
on this bill be indefinitely postponed

SINNAMAH0NING.

Well this town is full of bear hunters
and bear stories are all the go. A good
many are poking it at Jim. Batchelder
for being behind, but he will be up even
with the best of them in the close up of
the season. Jim. was building himself a
new house this fall and did not get into
the first run of bears like the rest of the
trappers. 1t made him rather nervous to
hear some of the big catches so early in
the season. here are some of them: One
mighty brought in bear before break
fast and another before dinner the first
day of bear season; another got two be-
fore ten o'clock; one went out to set his
traps and forgot his bait; he had slice
of bread and butter with currant jelly on
and after he had eaten it he wiped his
mustache on few leaves s:and when he
came back in about an hour bear had
eaten up all the leaves around and was
in the trap; the ffrft day of October an
other was so anxious he went ont with
out his breakfast and found an old mother
bear in his trap and her little cubs up a
tree He shot the little ones, the biggest
weighed Is pounds and made the report
that he had four bear hanging up at one
time; another went out and found a bear
in his trap and came home to get a
camera to take snap shot and when he
got back the bear had gone, got tired of
waiting or did not want his picture
taken; another report that Charley Nickel
had killed bear that attacked him at
the powder works that weighed 700
pounds. All this time Batchelder was
on nettles because he could not get after
the bruins. But he started out on the
18th and on the 25th captured two fine
bear and several coon and possums and
ever since has been living on the top
shelf, possum and sweet potatoes one day
and roost coon the next. Jim, doesn't
hunt on Sundays either, Willie Smith
and Orlie Walker went up with Jim. the
day he got his bears and killed one of
them themselves. Willie said his knees
were so week after he had killed the bear
that he could hardly stand. Wilbur
Peasley has given up trapping since he
failed to get snap shot OF the one that
got away, he is afraid it IS watching for
him. Don't worry about jim. neighbor
trappers and hunters, he will come ont all
right at the finish.

Following is list of bears killed in
Oct in the lower end of the county, as
far as l have been able to learn: G. E..
Logue, six, two alive; Fred Caldwell,
one alive; Bert Nelson, one alive; NJ. f.
Wykoff, one; Jake Smith, two; VIM.
Miller, two; Anson Logue, two; Mr.. Max
well, two, one weighed 304 pounds; Jas.
Batchelder, two in one day; Mr.. Pitts,
three; Seth Nelson, six; -Peasley, one;
Frank Miller, one; making total of 30.
With what have been killed in other
parts of the county, it will bring the total
to between 30 and 40, almost equaling
the total for the whole season of 1908,
which I believe was 40. Thoy have
commenced catching bear in November,
already down this way. Bird hunters
are making short visits in this section
owing to the scarcity of birds.
There are the most wild grapes, ever,
in the woods but very few pheasants to
feed off of them.
The heavy freeze of Friday night
caught good many potatoes in the
ground, not dug.
Mrs. Stella Card, of Austin, was visit
ing her aunt Mrs. R. NJ. Williams, the
last of the week.
The teachers returned from Institute,
Friday and Saturday, and are ready for
business again this morning.
In my last items, it should have read
Mrs. Fred Logue, of Thunder, Idaho,
instead of Mrs. Frank Logue.
Mrs. r. M. Williams was visiting at
Israel Bailey's, at Sinnamahoning one
day last week.
Mrs. Nina Logue and daughter Louisa
were visiting her parents on Bennetts
Branch over Sunday.
Somebody borrowed (?) two or three
of Chance Logue's traps out on the noun
tain and his catch for Nov. may not be
so large in consequence.
