Out OF The Ordinary
Bear Trees a Girl.

Miss Laurie Drumb, a school teach
er Of Port Angeles, Wash, had a
thrilling escape from being killed by
a bear in the mountains while hunt
ing squirrels and grouse. She had
bagged twenty squirrels and a number
of grouse and was firing her last cart
ridge at a squirrel when she spied the
bear. 1t made for her and she made
for a tree. Never having practiced
the art of climbing she was rather
tardy in reaching the limbs, but man
aged to keep out of the bears reach.
She was treed for five hours when her
uncle appeared and rescued her.

TO FREAK EDDY WILL
Case of Her Son and Adopted Son Is
Reopened in New Hampshire.

Concord, N. H., March 1.-THE fight
to break the will of Mary Baker G..
Eddy, who was head OF the Christian
Science church, was reopened in the
supreme court here this morning,
when the case of Mrs. Eddy's son and
adopted son against the directors Of
the mother church was brought to
trial, after having been dragged
through the courts of Massachusetts
and New Hampshire for the last year.
Before her death Mrs. Eddy made
an agreement with her son and adopt
ed son by which they We're to receive
100000 each, and pledged themselves
not to contest aIfy legal disposition
she might make of her estate by will.
Counsel for L. J. Foster Eddy, Mrs.
Eddy's adopted son, and George Glow
er, her son, will endeavor to show that
this so.called settlement was not bind
ing because of the fact that her will
did not conform with the laws OF
either Massachusetts or New Hamp'
shire, when she bequeatied the bulk
of her 100000 estate to the mother
church, of Boston. The laws OF both
states prohibit the donation or be-
ouest of an estate, the income OF
which exceeds $4,000 a year. to any
one church. Therefore the plaintiffs
contend that Mrs. Eddy did, not make
legal disposition of her estate by Will.
