Fell Into the Bears Pit.
When 1 spoke of my visit to the bear
pit this afternoon a lady recited the
story that has become a tradition in
Berne, but that is historically accu-
rate She told 1t we'll and it was
much more stirring than the story Of
the horrible butchery by which thou
sands had lost their lives in Flanders
only the day before. So cruelty does
usage blunt human feelings!
On q night many years ago one Of
the secretaries Of the British lega-
ton with a colleague from another le-
cation stopped at the bears den. 1t
was about midnight. They had been
out to dinner and were much under
the influence Of wine. The English
man in a sporty spirit vaulted over
the iron rail at the top and then back
several times. The last time he was
tripped by his cane which he held in
his hand, and fell 20 feet to the bottom
Of the pit. He was not hurt by the
fall. The pit was empty; the bears
had gone into their sleeping cellars.
Finally a rope of coat strips was
made. the Englishman grasped it. and
the crowd began pulling him up. When
his feet were dangling a few inches
from tho hottOm ono Of tho haorS Sta 10
gered up to him and struck him with
