FREEDOM
Big Bear Caught i'm Tran

NORTH-Much excitement pre-
vailed here Monday when bear was
caught in Reuben Sibly's pasture.
The bear was dead when found. He
weighed 25O pounds. He was very
handsome animal, his coating coal
black and glossy. Heretofore there
has been more or less doubt as to
there being any bears in this vicin-
ity. 1t is believed there are at least
five more in the woods somewhere.
Bears have done quite a lot of dam
age for Mr.. Silly at different times.
For the past few years he has lost
a number of sheep from his flock.
and last spring they invaded his hen
house carrying away some of his
hens. Up until the time Mr.. Sibly
sold his sheep in September he lost
eight this year.
Oscar Bragg, of Albion. has had
traps set since last summer for them
but this is the first one to be caught.
Before the bear was removed
from the trap the road was lined
with cars and people waiting to see
it. After all had had a good look
they took him to Freedom fer exhi-
bition and then to Albion.

Feat Betters Mark Set
by Argentinian.

the grim waters in IA hours and 81
minutes, thus became the first Of her

fore her. Miss Ederle's time for the
swim set worlds record, the best
previous mark of 16 hours and 33 min
utes being that of Tirabocchi, the Ar
gentinean, who swan from Calais to
Dover three years ago. Miss Ederle
walked triumphantly up the beaches
between the little village Of Kings
down and Walme Castle, Deal, quite
strong and fresh. The last few hun
dred yards of the swim were watched
from the shore by thousands Of Wis
itors from all parts of the country So
journing at the seaside resort of Deal,
who collected all available material to
build bonfire on the beach to guide
the plucky American girl as she
neared her goal.
Thus she finished the feat in a flare
lighting the coast for miles, since the
accompanying tugs burned flares and
displayed searchlights. The swimmer
refused all offers of help in landing.
Waving all aside, she walked out of
the surf unaided, amid tremendous
outbursts of cheering which COM
pletely drowned the tugboats' sirens.
She was so fresh she even wanted to
swim back to the boat lying some 200
yards out. But this was not allowed,
and she was rowed back to the boat,
and helped aboard for the return trip
to Cape Girls NeZ.
