Bear Hunters Mistake

A telegram from ST. Colombian des
Villas, in the Savoy, reports that the
villagers were thrown into a state OF
great alarm by the appearance of a
large bear on the edge of the village.
1t was looking for something to eat,
and a general raid by the animal on
all the live stock in the place was
feared
The men sailed forth to hunt the
bear and the women locked them
selves and the children IN the
houses. After q time the bear was
surrounded and shot as he was trot-
ting up to the men. The intrepid
hunters dragged the carcass to the
village and skinned 1t, distributing
portions of the skin as souvenirs Of
the adventure and dividing the flesh
for home consumption
Great rejoicings were going on
when the owner of the bear arrived,
and on hearing Of the fate of his pet
stated that It was pet performing
animal, and that he would sue the
village for compensation for the loss
OF his means OF livelihood.

letters were dropped. It had hinged
