An exciting bear hunt took place
last week at the foot Of Vose Mt,
when DR.. A. H. Clark fired 16 shots
Friday morning at a large she bear
without stopping, although badly
wounding her. At noon, as the
Doctor had only one cartridge left
he was forced to leave the bear and
return to the village for more ammu-
milton. With his store replenished
and accompanied by r. c. Huse of
Kingfeld. DR.. Clark returned to the
scene of the mornings campaign, but
was unable to get another shot at
Bruin. Next morning together with
Mr.. Huse and Earle Wing Of King
field. he again took up the trail and
found where the bear slept over
night and bled profusely. A short
distance away Postmaster Huse, who
was in advance Of the others, came
upon the bear lying nearly upon his
back with head curled down and ap-
parently dead.
AS the Doctor was considerably ex-
cited in his encounter with the bear
on the previous day and as this one
was mere cub Weighing not over
Is pounds. he at once shouted back,
Here's your bear Doc"
Lawyer Wing next appeared and
walking up to the bear kicked him.
At the second kick the bear snarled,
but both men concluded he was about
done for. Huse leveied his gun and
stood ready to pull the trigger should
the bear get up. At this point DR..
Clark arrived on the scene and new

Mr.. REYNOLDS said that Clark moved
ali the grass in two mowings except
an hour and a half cutting on Sunday.
Went to the farm on Sunday. 1t was
quite foggy and the weather didn't
look very good. The Clarks were get
ting in hay. Told them he didn't think
the hay was in good condition to get
it and that it wanted more sun but did
not forbid them. Went to the barn and
they came up with a load of damp hay.
Passed a box of salt to Thibodeau,
asked him to sprinkle it on because the
hay didn't look very good. 1t took two
to unload it and it came off in little
forkfuls. Witness told them not to get
in any more until the sun came out.
Witness said the Clarks did not put
in any appearance at the farm Mon
day and Tuesday forenoon he saw
Frank Clark go by with team and
rake. The weather didn't look good and
witness told him that the hay was
heating and he didn't want any more
got in like that. Went on the NOW
when the barn roof was being patched
and saw that the hay was heating.
Judson Clark told witness to go to
hell, with his hay and that he wouldn't
touch it. Witness replied. Don't get
mad, Mr.. Clark, it's impossible to get
help and here is two-thirds of the farm
down." He urged Frank to take hold
and finish the job and said he would help
and make good on. it, but the Clarks went
home. Mr. Reynolds thought there were
10 or more acres fiat when the Clarks
went home; some of it was moved the
Friday before. Witness finally employed
Mr.. Nichols and Mrs. Page, neighbors.
to finish the job. The hay was badly
discolored as would be the result from
being out three or four nights and in
one shower. The contract was wholly
with Judson Clark.
Following the defendant other Witness
es in his behalf were Charles Nichols
and Mark Page of Sidney, after which
the matter Of who the real plaintiff in
the case was was argued by Lawyer
Dutton, who claimed that the contract
was entirely with Judson Clark and that
Senator Reynolds was entitled to dam
ages for the "botched job" that the
clarks did, The claim of Attorney Dut-
ton that instead Of Judson Clark not
going on the Reynolds farm because Of
dew he did some Of his haying in the
rain greatly amused some of the Sid
ney farmers present at the hearing.

They were stopped on the way, the men being detailed for &C., tive work. The flames had much headWay when discovered, the hay straw and sawdust burning fiercely and causing an illuminat ton that could be seen from all parts of the city. The sky was brilliantly lighted when the first apparatus left head quarters and it was feared that the Landers, Frary & Clark plant was burning.
 Six streams of water were used to check the flames and it was after o'clock this morning before the re- call was sounded although several companies had been released from duty. It proved to be one of the hottest and most disagreeab1e fires to fight that the departm ent has en- countered for several years. Several times Chief Dame had to withdraw his men from the alleys between the burning building and those adjoining. Men were kept constantly on watch to see that the flames did not spread to the wooden stairways, dumb waiter shafts and through the open windows of the adjoining tenement blocks. So intense was the heat that the rear windows of the Reynolds home were cracked, the rear porch scorched and window curtains black ened.
 For time, fear was expressed that the fines would spread to the blocks adjoining and tenants and lodgers prepared to leave. Some appeared on verandas and the street scantily clad. They soon returned as it was found that the f1remen were holding the flames would spread to the blocks expressed at one time as to the prob able destruction of M. T.
