Bear With Stick

H. L. Laughter, who lives at
the foot of Sugar Loaf road and
who was visitor in town Satur-
day, recalled the story, at the
suggestion Of friends, Of how, 80
years ago, he killed a 300-pound
bear with pine knot.
Mr.. Laughter when questioned
about the incident, said that the
bear had his dog down and was
about to kill him. Mr.. Laughter
feared. He grabbed up a pine
stick, which he indicated was
about as long as his forearm, and
attacked the bear on the head. He
crushed his skull in, killing him.
Asked if he wasn't afraid that
the bear would take after him,
Mr.. Laughter said that "a man
always fights for his dog" and he
felt confident that if the bear
tried to take after him, the dog
would keep the bear off Of him.

CHESTERT0N
DIED SUNDAY
Heart Stroke Fatal to Bril-
liant, Admired Brit ', p.
ish Literateur ..,a,,

BEEC0NSFIELD, Eng, June
15.-UP)-Gilbert Keith Ches-
terton, 62, book reviewer, man of
letters and noted editor and au-
thor, died of heart attack Sun
day.
Chesterton, one of the most
brilliant and best liked men in the
English literary world, had been
i'll only week.
His funeral will be held We'd
nesday at the local Roman Cath
Ollie church, to which he was con-
verified in 1922.
Born in London in 1874, Ches-
terton was educated at the St
Paul's school, London, and train
ed to be an artist but, to quote
his own words, "succumbed to a
low passion for writing"
He never entirely deserted his
drawing and sketching, however
for there was a room in his home
here whose walls were covered
with brown paper on which Ches-
terton would frequently draw
sketches when the fancy struck
him.
With his tremendous girth,
rounded, jovial face, Pince NeZ,
long gray hair and heavy nous
tache and wearing an old-fashion-
ed black cloak and black, broad
brimmed soft hat, he was at one
time a familiar figure in fleet
street, the newspaper section Of
London.
Men who were good eaters and
honest drinkers found champion
in Chesterton. He was knight en-
rant of the underdog. On the
subject of drinking. he once ex-
pressed himself as follows:
"My objections to convictions
for drunkenness is that they APP
ply only to the poor. | have drunk
and been drunk and | have known
my friends, occupying honorable
positions in society, who have
been drunk, but when a man is
hopelessly drunk, he is put in a
cab and sent home and he does
not become a statistic"

the New Deal subversively.

cottage occupied by himself and
his wife at Ocean Beach.
Mrs. Miller, who reported her
husband missing, feared he had
walked out of the cottage for a
breath of fresh air, slipped on a
rock and fallen over a cliff into
the sea. He was to have reported
for work Monday at the Imperial
Valley Hardware store in Ell Cen

for several years as clerk
Miller was week-ending in Ocean
Beach, where his wife stayed dur
ing the summer. With group
of friends they had attended
party Saturday night, Mrs. Miller
said, returning to the cottage early.
She retired at about 1920 leaving
Miller reading a book. He re-
marked that he had only few
lines to read, then would come to
bed.
When Mrs. Miller awoke at about
midnight, her husband had not yet
retired. She went into the living
room in search of him, then look
ed about outside. His Car was
parked in the usual place. Only
his hat was gone.
San Diego police, notified of
Miller's disappearance, were un-
able to locate him. There were no
signs on the rocky cliff where he
might have slipped and fallen into
the sea. He could not be found
elsewhere.
Ell Centro police and sheriff's
deputies checked in Imperial VAL
ley, but could find no clues which
might explain Miller's disappear
ance. His family said there had
been no trouble, and that Miller
was in good spirits as far as they
knew,
