took up their abode and absolutely
refused to be coaxed out with the
most tempting morsels Of food, and
even defied any one to come in and
drive them out. The only time they
would come out was at night, but
that was only when there was not
the least bit Of danger Of their being
captured. Failing in all his attempts
to capture the cubs Mr.. Brewster,
the manager Of the chalet, wired his

THIS SHARK CAUGHT SOLDIER.
Corporal Kirkpatrick Lost Toes
May Suffer Amputation of Leg.

Charleston, July 24.-Corporal
Fort Moultrie, is in the army hospi-
tai on Sullivan's Island, suffering
from injuries on the leg and foot,
which may yet result in the ampu-
tation of the limb, as result of his
encounter with an eight-foot shark
in the surf. The soldier was bath
ing with several friends in the surf,
near the barracks, when the alarm
was raised at the sight of the mon
ster fish. kirkpatrick and his COM
rades began their race for the beach,
yelling at the top Of their voices
and trying to frighten off the shark
as they sought safety. In about four
feet Of water the shark tried to re-
cover his prey, closing his giant jaws
in close proximity to the left foot
Of the soldier, badly lacerating the
leg, taking off two toes and other
wise hurting the foot, but Fortunate
ly doing no greater harm. The SOL
diers had then gotten into such shall
low water that the boldly attacking
monster was forced to give up his
attack and again seek deep water.
1t was a savage attack that the shark
made upon Corporal Kirkpatrick
and the incident has terrorized the
bathers on Sullivan's Island for the
time.
1t Is a rare thing for a shark to
be seen in the surf. especially with
bathers in the water for the splash
ing Of the water and the chattering
of the voices usually drive the mon
sters off shore.

Anderson, July 27.-Love does not

case a few days ago when l.. E.
Knight, notary public, Of this coun-
ty, had occasion to join in wedlock
Andrew Harris, a prominent farmer
of the Whitefield section, and Mrs.
Frances Harris, of White Plains.
Notary Public Knight was aroused
from his meditations by the approach
Of cooling couple on Sunday af-
ternoon. The notary was about to
demur that he did not draw up any
papers on Sunday, when he was in
formed 1t was O far more serious
matter than business that the couple
came to him for. Explanations fol-
lowed with the production Of a mar
riage license. The notary public,
with beaming face, performed the
ceremony.
The groom (Andrew Harris) is 83
years of age and is a prominent and
successful farmer. He is generally
known throughout the county. He
had been married twice before, this
being his third venture into the
realm Of matrimony.
His bride is rs and widow, hav-
ing been married once before.
Roland Drake has seen both his
grandfathers married. He attended
the marriage of Mr.. Harris, who is
his grandfather on his fathers side.
A large crowd attended this mar
riage, though it had been intended
to be surprise.
A few years ago Roland Drake
witnessed the wedding of Enoch
Drake, his grandfather on his mo-
theirs side. This was his GRANDPA
theirs third marriage.

Indian SHES at King.

AS Jim Thorpe, the half breed In
dian athlete, Of Carlisle (Pa.) In
dian Training School, who. by his
wonderful victories in the Decathlon
and Penthalon competitions, at the
Olympic games in Stockholm, won
the title Of the worlds greatest all
around athlete, was getting ready to
leave Stock holm with the rest Of the
American athletes, messenger Of
the king rendered him a command
to appear in the royal presence. 1t
is believed that King Gustav was so
pleased with the performance OF the
Indian that he wished to personally
congratulate as well as present him
with some token of his admiration
but Thorpe, being OF a bashful ma
turc. decided not to go. much to the
surprise of his companions. This is
probably the first time in history
that summons to appear before a
royal monarch has been ignored.

1s DROWNED IN COAL NINE.
Following CIoudburst, Water Rusl,es
In, Catching Victims Unawarcs.

Uniontown, Pa, July 24.-Caught
like rats in trap when water rush
ed into the man-way of Superba No.
2 mines, at Evans station, three
miles north Of Uniontown this after
noon, following a cloudburst, thir-
teen men were drowned and 81 es-
capped after most narrowing expe-
rience. The men were drowned
about 1000 feet from the mouth Of
the mtncs, their only avenue OF es-
cape.
The majority OF the victims had
large families, and about thirty chill
dren are deprived of their bread
winners by one Of the worst catastro-
phes that has ever visited Fayette
county. The men who escaped were
forced to half swim and half walk
to the pit mouth through water
ranging in depth from their waists
to thei. necks.
Many Swept Back.
The majority Of the miners were
knocked down by timbers that were
sent down the mine with great ve-
locity in the raging current. Seve-
raj men were being carried back into
the mine to certain death when res
cuvd by their companions who risk
ed their lives.
1t was stated tonight by officials
Of the Superba Company that it will
take at least sixty days to clear the
mines of water, and until that time
the bodies must remain in the wa
ter where they perished. Superin-
tendent j. w. Buttermore was the
first man to see the high water start
in the man-way.
The wives and families Of the
miners and drivers in the mines
when the alarm was raised rushed to
the man-hole and frantically tried to
stop the waters rush into the mines
where their loved ones were earning
their daily bread. Failing in that
they rushed to the mouth Of the
mine and would have continued their
mad dash into the mine had they
not been stopped by cool-headed per-
sons who guarded that entrance.
The women and children remained
at the mouth of the slope late to-
night, refusing to return home until
an attempt had been made to rescue
their husbands and fathers.

"A BEUE RIDGE BRIDGE BURNED.
Long Span Six-and-Twenty TrcstIe
Destroyed by Fire.
(Anderson Mail, 25th.)

The trestle on the Blue Ridge road
over Six-and-Twenty creek, near Dem
yer, S. c., was totally destroyed by
fire to-day, the fire originating from
spark which fell from the engine
Of the noon train. The structure
fell into the waters OF the creek
about $40 o'clock, leaving great
gap in the road with the rails swing
ing in the air. The Blue Ridge off,
cials sent an extra train and crew
with fire fighting apparatus to the
fire, but were unable, after hard
work, to save it, The traffic over
this road will probably be tied up
for three weeks, If not longer.
1t Is thought that the fire caught
when the train stopped at the tres
tie to take on a corpse, as it was
seen by Mr.. Simpson few min
utes after the train left He did not
pay any attention to the blaze, as it
was very small, only thinking that
it was one of the many small fires
often seen on the tracks. The fire
gained headway rapidly and soon the
entire structure was in flames. 1t
was about 150 yards long and 11S
feet high-one Of the highest in the
upper part Of the State-and con-
structed entirely Of wood with
covering of sheet iron. 1t is not
known what the value Of the trestle
was, but the expense Of replacing it
with modern steel structure will
be considerable.
This is very serious blow to the
Blue Ridge Company, as it will tie
up the traffic over the road for seve-
raj days, weeks, perhaps, and in the
meantime the passenger traffic will
all have to be transferred at the.
creek, while the freight business
will be NIL
