BEAR KILLED NEAR MANNING.
Bruin, Betrayed by Tracks, Easy
Victim of Hunters.

Manning, April 5:-A party Of
about dozen white men and fifteen
or twenty negroes indulged in the
rare sport of bear hunting a few
miles from Manning this morning.
They succeeded in bagging a huge
bear, weighing about 450 pounds,
which was divided among the hunt
ers, so that many families will have
the novelty of bear meat Cor their
Sunday dinner tomorrow.
According to report, the bears
tracks were discovered early this
morning near Bloomville by a negro
named Witherspoon, who saw the
tracks in his yard when he first got
out. He called his brother who liv-
ed near by, and they started to fol-
low the tracks, which was easily done
after the rain last night. They were
soon Joined by others. and the bear
was traced to q cypress pond near
Providence colored church, about four
miles from Manning. The pond was
surrounded and dogs sent for. Other
men with guns joined the party and
the bear was soon routed. 1t trequir-
ed several shots to kill him.
Judging from the direction the
bear was travelling, he was evidently
making his way from Santee swamp
to Black river swamp 1t is known
tina. many bears 'inhabit the Great
Santee swamp, but they very rarely
come out any distance and few have
ever been taken as large as the one
killed today. A peculiarity is the
fact that the bear was fat so early,
in the year.

Paying As We Go.

The paternalism Of large corpora
tions toward their employees contin-
ues to develop in new directions s!nd
furnish new proofs of tender regard.
In addition to model dwellings and
schools and pensions and compulsory
thrift. it has of late undertaken to
supervise recreation and even mar
riage. The latest development is
reported from Philadelphia, where a
large firm employing 700 men has
offered to give each one of them Is
cents every tine he takes a bath,
provided he does not exceed one a
day. To give the plan an economic
standing, it is called Cheap Insur-
ance Against Disease" 1t is to be
added, the company furnishes the
bathing plant with soap and towels.
The plan is not whimsical. 1t ac-
cords with proposals in many locali-
ties to pay children for going to
school. In ancient Athens citizens
received pay for going to the thea
tire. We may some day pay citizens
vote as we'll as to bathe; we may ev-
en- offer a premium for marriage and
bounties for babies. Y World.

Thinks His Property
Is Owned by District

A novel question presented itself to
Judge Pugh in the District branch of
the Police Court today when w. Wal
ter Edwards. of 317 John Marshall
place, was arraigned on a charge of
not keeping a vacant lot cleaned ac-
cording to the health ordinances. For
a few minutes the court was in doubt
as to whether the District had brought
charges legally when the District itself
was responsible for the condition that
existed on the lot as it was the rightful
owner of the premises.
The defendant explained that the
title was not yet his. He said that
the District Equity Court decided the
title was vested in him. but that the
District had refused to pay him for the
property after condemning 1t and that
therefore he did not consider himself
the rightful owner of the premises.
Judge Pugh told the defendant that
he would have to abide by. the rulins
of the higher court despite the delay In
the payment Of the money. He decided
that Edwards was the rightful owner
as far as the Police Court was con-
cerned and ordered the defendant to
clean up the premises.

Will Discuss Plans
For Cleanup Week

Plans for clean UP week, which be-
gins April IA, will be considered at a
conference tomorrow between Engineer
Commissioner Harding and W. p.
Richardson, chairman of the cleanup
committee. Assurances have been given
by Colonel Harding of his interest In
the work and his desire to assist.
Among the recommendations of the
committee is that the District take
over the work of the collection Of garb-
age ashes and refuse, which is now
done by contract The Commissioners
are on record as approving of the plan
and will probably include in their next
estimates an appropriation for the en-
ployment of a sanitary engineer to in
vestigate the cost and desirability OF
the establishment of garbage and
refuse disposal plant
The item was included in their last
estimates. but was cut out of the Dis

Fat women who are contemplating
new gown in the mode will have to
contemplate a reduction Of their flesh
before they visit the dressmaker.
Fortunately this is nothing like the
hard labor 1t was when one had nothing
but exercising or dieting to get results
with. Nowadays a short course of the
Marmola Prescription Tablets should
bring any woman, however fat, to the
proportions necessary for her to wear
a Directoire gown.
Let her take Marmola Tablet (nade
in accordance with the famous prescrip-
ton and, therefore, harmless) after
each meal and at bedtime and she
should very soon be losing a pound a
day. This result, accomplished without
disturbing ones table customs, forming
wrinkles or distressing the stomach,
astonished everybody.
Even one large case, costing only 75
cents at any druggists, or the same
amount direct by mail from the Mar
