NORTH PLATTK , Nob. , Aug. 17. ( Spe
cial. ) Hon. J. II. MacColl , Hon. A. 12.
Cody. Hon. J. S , Hoagland nnd Hon. J.
IL Abbot , republican candidates for gov
ernor , congressman , senator and representa
tive , arrived hero Sunday morning from a
campaign tour through Scotts HI tiff , Banner.
Klmball , Cheyenne , Dcuct and Keith coun
ties. The Uco correspondent found the gen
tlemen well pleased with the prospect of
success for the republican ticket In the
counties named , and say that for every
republican they found 'tinctured with free
silver foolishness there are many demo
* crats and populists who will vote the repub
lican policy of fair wages In sound money ,
and thus create a demand for farm products
at reasonable prices.
Thcso Kentlcmeli opened the campaign at
Gcrlng , the county seat of Scotts Uluft
county , Tuesday evening , where they had
an audience ot over COO people , eager to
learn something ot the political questions
of the day. There was a torchlight pro
cession headed by a brass baud , which
escorted the speakers to an outdoor plat
form , around which the citizens patiently
stood lor three hours , llstlnlng to logic ,
reason and facts , and when It Is known
that there were ICO voters In line carrying
torches and wearing beautiful satin badges
labeled 'Tor .McKlnley and Hobart , MacColl ,
Cady , Hoagland und Abbot , " anil that last
fall there were less than 400 votes cast
in the entire county , some idea may be
had of the enthusiasm and Interest nami-
festcd by the citizens ot western Nebraska
for the success of the republican party
in this campaign.
At Harrlshiirg , the county scat of Uan-
ncr county , the candidates were received In
the- same enthusiastic manner as at Gor
ing. The large court room was packed
full of Ilanner county citizens ot all politi
cal creeds , many of them leaving their
harvest fields and traveling noin twenty
I i to thirty miles to attend the afternoon
meeting. Prominent populist leaders ex
pressed themselves as heartily sick of the
nauseous mixture of democracy and popu
lism , and said they Inlend to try Dr. Mc-
Klnley's patent protection prescription and
Dr. Itlainc's reciprocity ready relief here
after. The party of speakers drove twenty-
Jlvc miles from Harrlsburg to Klmball after
their meeting In the afternoon , and while
at supper a wagon of women and men
singers serenaded them with campaign
songs.
The court house Wednesday night at
Klmball was well filled with inlelligent
citizens. More people were there than
there were votes cast In Klmball counly
last fall , and the meeting was a grand suc
cess In every feature. Thursday afternoon
they had an enthusiastic meeting- Potter ,
in Cheyenne county , where Oaily and
Hoagland talked over two hours to a largo
crowd , most ot whom wcro Scandinavians ,
and every one of them went home loaded
with explanations of 'the financial fool
ishness of the democratic party nnd with
I a determination to preach protection to
their brethren.
At Sidney that evening an Immense crowd
of people greeted the speakers. Good sing
ers were present and enthused the audience
with patriotic campaign songs , and the
verdict ot every one seemed to be that Chey
enne coUuty never before enjoyed a pollll-
cal meeting of such magnitude * or en-
luusiasrn. Then followed meetings ut Lodge
Polo , Chuppell , Dig Springs and Ogalulla.
At each place the candidates were greeted
by largo' audiences. At some of these
places , where the country seems to be
sparsely settled , tbo quartet of speakers
wcro amazed to see so many people , until
they learned that many drove from the
Irrigated country along the North Platte
river to hear republican doctrine eloquently
and logically presented and to shako bauds
with their old friends.
The week's campaigning was closed Sat
urday night at Ogalalla. where It has been
said the free silver fever has ailllctcd
many republicans ; but the gentlemen say
that false reports have gone out through
tha press about the republican ! ) of Ogalalla ;
that such reports are at the ratio of six
teen falsehoods to one truth , and that
when the votes are counted next November
Ogalalla will bo found in the republican
column of majorities.
! Mcssrs. JlacOoll , Cady , Hoagland and
Abbot ara resting here and will start In
Monday for another week's active cam
paigning , with two meetings : each day.
Tuesday night a grand rally with Hon.
John L. Webster as prinolp.il speaker , will
be held In this city. Wednesday nn all-day
picnic will be held at Ash grove , near Well-
fleet , In thla county , with MacColl. Cady ,
Andrews , Iloagland , Abbot , Ileillund , Col
lins , Evans and Patterson as political stars.
Mr. Oady expressed himself today aa
particularly encouraged at the present out
look In this portion of the state ; that the
success of the republican rallies during
the last week reached very far beyond hh
expectations , and that Uanncr , Klmball ,
Rcotts IJluff aud Cheyenne counties , which
have heretofore been populist strongholds ,
will certainly loll up good majorities for
the whole republican ticket.

The democratic congressional committee

call for the congressional convention. It
will bo held at Crelghtou hall , August 29 ,

pone calling thu convention until after the
county canvpiitidii was railed , but the com-
mltlee was assured that the. county conven
tion would no doubt bo scheduled for August
28 , and consequently the call was issued.
Nothing was said in regard to niiy probable
action of thu convention. Chairman Shields
stated that the committee had called a
democratic convention and they could take
ofllclal notice of no other party. If the
convention wanted to nominate a free sliver
republican that was a matter wllh which
the committed had nothing to do.

YONKnttS , N. Y. , AUR. IT. William J.
Hryan and party , Including Mrs. Hryan and
Mr. Sewnll. left John Hrlsbanc Walker's
homo at Irvlngton this morning shortly
after D o'clock. At Mr. Walker's request
the people of Irvlngton had refrained from
making nny demonstrations , and there were
but few people present at the depot. The
employes of Mr. Walker's establishment
cheered the party as they left the grounds.
The candidate , Mrs. Urynn rtnd Mr. Cut-
right , Mr. Hrynn's private secretary , took
the train as far as Yonkers , nnd there
took the daylight boat for Poughkecpsle.
At Yonkers few people knew of their com
ing and there was no demonstration of any
lively character. The passengers on the
boat cheered the party as they came across
the gan ? plnnk. The party will arrive at
Poughkccpsle shortly after the noon hour
and from there take the train to Tarry town ,
the nearest railroad point to Upper Ucd
Hock.
NKM'HUKG. N. Y. . Aug. 17. About 2,000
people gathered In the dock here nt noon
oday to see Mr. nnd Mrs. Hryan. When
he boat Albany landed flags wcro waved
and cheers wore given for the distinguished
'Cebrnskan. ' Just before the gang plank was
muted In. Mr. Hrynn appeared at the lower
langway , hat In hand , and bowed and smiled
ils acknowledgments of the compliment
> ald him. Mnnr people went to Pougll-
ceppslo from here on the boat to get a good
ook at the democrallc candidate for prcsl-
lent.
"WEST POINT , .V. Y. , Aug. 17. Mr. Sew-
ill left the party and went to New York ,
'rom where he will go to Maine on the
loat. The captain put a stateroom at the
ll.sposal of the paity nnd for half an hour
.he 300 or100 passengers on the boat kept
thn presidential candidate and his wife busy
shaking hands. At 11 o'clonk Mr. and Mra.
tlryan went out on deck and cnjojcd the
> enutlful view of the Hudson and the hlgh-
nnils. E. K. Olcott of the Albany day line
said this morning Hint the reason why the
joat did not stop for Mr. Hryan at Irvington
was , first , because the name was misunder
stood over the telephone , nnd second , be
cause It was not possible. The ebb tide and
: ho- wind was so strong that It would have
boon Impossible for the boat to have made
a landing. It would have been1 equally Im
possible for a small boat to have run along
side the boat at Irvlngton. the wind and
strong tide making II dangerous , "No dls-
espect , " said Mr. Olcott. "was Intended
Mr. Hryan. We would have been glad to
lave accommodated such a prominent man ,
lad It been possible. Kor the other part
) t their journey Mr. and Mrs. Uryan sat
In the pilot house with Captain Odeli.
POUGIIKE12PSIE , N. Y. , Aug. 17.-When
Mr. Hryan reached Poughkecpsle about 400
people wore at the dock to greet him. They
followed him up the street cheering and
shouting for a speech. When ho reached the
lepot the crowd became so Insistent that Mr.
Uryan finally yielded to their wishes and.
standing outside the station on a box , said
a few words. In brief , he said : "I am up
'cro for a rest and I did not expect to make
a speech , but I probably shall not see you
again and I will take this opportunity to
say a few words to you. I nm very glad to
see you all. From the tone of the New York
opposition press one would be led to sup-
) ese that there is no silver sentiment In this
state. I am glad to see hero a refutation of
that fallacy and to notice that even the
great New York cannot stifle the wishes ot
the people. This is the time when Iho
thinking people are to outnumber the poli
ticians and the corporations , and when the
people will act according to their own Judg
ment. It Is to bo the greatest campaign
that we. young people have ever seen , and
I believe It is n great , good sign when we
can , as In this campaign , foresee Independ
ence. We are naturally an Independent
people and this Is a time when that inde
pendence will be asserted. "
Then Mr. Hryan said : "How many men
are silver men ? "
A number of men raised their hands and
he said : "t want you to study up this matter
and see how many silver men you can get
for our campaign. "
"How are you for the worklngmen ? '
shouted a man. In thecrowd. .
Mr. Bryan hesitated * a second , and then
his Index finger poised as ho answered :
"Will you taks 'what If have said and what
I have done , consider It very carefully and
then Judge as between our cause and that
of our opponents ? Candidates represent
only the policies of their parties and It Is
therefore not for me to tell you what is
your duty. It Is for you to study the Issues
and I am glad that you are doing that , and
when you find out what your duty Is , do
tt. "
Mr. and Mrs. Hryan left on the 1:50 : New
York Central train.
HAIUIYTOWN , N. Y. . Aug. 17. The Hryan
party made the trip by rail from Pough
kecpsle without incident. Hryan laugh
ingly admitted that he had broken his
pledge not to speak while on the trip , but
added : "Tho crowd was almost tearing our
clothes off and I had to do It as a matter
of self-protection. "
At Startsburg there were fifty or more
people at the station and the same thing
happened at each of thn small stations. The
train conductor explained to Mr. Hryan that
the numbers represented about all the male
population of the place. A bride and groom
on the same car presented themselves and
received congratulations from both Mr. and
Mrs. Bryan.
At Harrytown Mr. and Mrs. Pcrrlne , whose
guests Mr. and Mrs. Hryan are to bo , met
them at the station and drove them to Hod
Hook , where they will stay for at least a
week.
An Incident ot the boat trip today was the
fact that the steamboat people had arranged
free transportation for the Bryan party and
dinner for the entire party , Including the
newspaper men. Mr. Dryan was exceedingly
polite over the matter , but insls'cd on paying
faro and for his own and his wife's meals ,
which ho did.
Mr. Bryan raid that newspaper talk of a
prepared southern itinerary was without
foundation. Such a trip would bo taken ,
but absolutely no dates have been arranged.
UPPKR nnD HOOK , N. Y , . Aug. 17.
Wllllnm J. Hryan's Itinerary after ho has
rested 1ms been partially arranged. He will
not go bark to New York to answer the
speech of Cockran. He will go from hero to
Buffalo , from Buffalo to Eric , from Eric
to Cleveland , speaking at each place. From
Cleveland he will go direct to Lincoln.
When ho leaves Lincoln , ho will go to the
smith , the Itinerary pf that trip Including
speeches in Kentucky , Florida , Missouri and
Maryland and then he will come east again
al-out the last week In September. He

WASHINGTON , D. C. , Aug. 17. Senator
Jones , chalimnn of the national democratic
committee , had a long conference this after
noon with Senator Faulkner , chairman oC
the congressional committee ; cx-Congrcss-
man lilaml , who came ln-re from New York ;
Senator Bacon of Oeorgla , Representative
McMlllln and Representative lllcharilson ot
Tenncsseo , Dan McConvlllc , chairman of
the state executive commltteo of Ohio , anil
Lawrence Gardiner , secretary of the con
gressional committee. They exchanged
views as to the plan of campaignAs
tholr means will be very limited they say
that they expect to rely upon the demo
cratic clubs for much effective campaign
worlt. They have reports of the organiza
tion of a Itrrge number of Uryan and Sowall
clubs throughout the country. A number
of these , however , are composed entirely ot
republicans and on this account the cen
tral organization will have to bo separate.
Chaunccy F. Black of Pennsylvania , presi
dent of the association of democratic clubs ,
was telegraphed for and Is expected to
arrlvo tomorrow morning. In his hand pon-
slbly will bo placed the work of perfecting
th details , but the executive work will
bo done by Congressman McMlllln , who la
now vlco chairman of the executive com
mltteo ot clubs. Ho possibly will be elected
chairman In place of Postmaster General
Wilson , who Is going abroad this fall. An
effort will bo made , It Is understood , to
Induce some very prominent silver repub
lican , preferably Senator Teller , to ncccpt
thn presidency ot the Bryan and Sowall
republican silver clubs. Chairman Jones
will go to Chicago on Wednesday to arrange
for the location of the main hcadquarteis
and get the work of the campaign under
way. Mr. Bland will probably accompany
him. Senator Jones did not announce the
remaining three members ot thu campaign
committee today and ho may not do so until
ho reaches Chicago.
Although Chicago has been selected
as headquarters of the national demo
cratic committee , much of the work
will be done hero. Branch headquar
ters , to be located here , will work
In conjunction with the congressional com
mittee. Most of the literature will be dis
tributed from hero. Congressman McMlllln
ot Tennessee was selected by Chairman
Jones and Senator Faulkner to prepare the
democratic campaign book. lie Is indus
triously at work on his task , and expects
to have the volume In print by the time
Mr. Hryan Is ready to give his letter of
acceptance to the public. The question of
locating branch headquarters west of Chicago
cage has not yet been finally decided upon.
Word was received today that Senator
Dubols , one of the bolting silver republicans ,
had captured sixteen of the twenty-one
counties of Idaho In the fight against his
colleague. Senator Shoup , who Is supporting
McKlnley.
At the republican headquarters It was
announced today that extracts from Mr.
Bryan's tariff speech were being prepared
for distribution to show his strong free
trade leaning. Senator Sherman's speech
of August 30 , 1894 , explaining the "crime
of " 73 , " Is also being prepared as a docu
ment for distribution.
Senator Butler of North Carolina , chair
man of the populist committee , Is expected
hero tonight to meet with the executive
commltteo tomorrow. Three of the mem
bers of that committee are already here ,
Rcod of Georgia , Edgerton of Nebraska and
Washburn of Massachusetts. There Is a
possibility the populist headquarters may be
removed to Chicago. The committee de
cided at St. Louis to locate the headquarters
hero , but a sentiment has grown up since
then In favor of Chicago. The meeting of
the commltteo tomorrow may be quite
stormy , as there Is the belief that the Wat
son "middle-of-the-roaders" are In the ma
jority.

to that of Senator Thurston , published this

WASHINGTON , Alls' . 17 , ISM. Hon , John

aorvc In the impcrs this morning a leltwr
purporting to Imvo bfvii written by you to

to the American people that charges of this
kind should go unanswered. Hu is the
man , and the only man , who can muku

Thurston , bow can you reconcile the fore
going statement with your charge .against
Mr. Bryan , and against the silver pro
ducers , which Is contained In the follow
ing language used by you , and to which I
had the honor to call your attention In my
former letter : "Tho proprietors of thn bljr
bonanzas have found It profitable to keep
a largo number of lecturers and other
spokesmen on the road preaching- the
people. Among the many who have thus
been employed and carried on the pay rolls
of the big bonanzas for a number of yours
Is William Jennings Bryan of Nebraska , a

man posing aH the advocate of llio down

a 'crown of thorns' in one hand and the
bugaboo 'cross of gold' In the other , owes
it as a duty to every n'lin , woman and child
In this country , to say whether the charge

and I know whereof I speak , that for three

country from one end to the other , telling
the fanner that ho will have more for his
wheat ; telling thu laboring1 man that ho
will linvo more for his work. "
Your disclaimer In connection with the
foregoing statement requires explanation ,
provided you consider your reputation for
truth and veracity valuable. Hut your dis
claimer that you would "be thn fast man
to assail the character of Mr , nrynn" re
flects either upon your veracity or your
knowledge of the law of libel. If you are
a lawyer ( and the fact that you have been
retained by the Union Pnclllc railroad for
so many years Indicates that you are useful
in Homo way to that Institution ) , you ought
to know that repeating a slander or llbol la
equally as slanderous or llbclous as the
original matter. You assume that you are
not assailing Mr. Hryan whan you are quot
ing what Irresponsible newspapers Hay ot
him. and giving to such statements all the
credit your high olllclal position can confer.
You bellt'.lo your understanding when you
way that It is the duty of Mr. llryan ta
enter Into personal controversy with every
hireling newspaper scribbler who Is em
ployed to slander or defame him. The people
ple understand the animus of partisan
newspapers and inn lie proper allowances for
their assertions , but when you cloth their
slanders with your otllcliil robes it Is a
lame und cowardly defense on your part to
protect , yourself by skulking behind miser
able newspaper scribblers. 1 called your at
tention to the Injustice of your elmrge , not
to Jhe charge of u newspapers which I have
acnln quoted for the purpose of calling
your attention to the charge you made , sup
posing that as you were tin honorable man
you would retract the charges at once , II
you were unable to prove them. Instead oi
doing so you repeated other stale Blunders
against Mr. Hryan. myself , Senator Sharon ,
Governor Stanford und others , which. If
true , do not provo your charge
against Mr. Bryan. I shall not
reiterate In kind und quote vena ]
newspapers or c-.ven what better men
than yourself say of you , because It Is not
pertinent to the Issue , The issue Is whether
you have unjustly and without proof as
sailed the character of Mr. Hryan. You
cannot avoid that Issue by pretending that
you only repeated u falsehood which some
body else originated. 13o you not fear the
repeating of a falsehood and attributing It
to Irresponsible parties will impair your In
fluence in favor of the cause you are ad
vocating ? You must remember , my dear
senator , that there Is a sense of public
justice which is outraged by slander and
libel , which you cannot Justify by claimlns
you huvo a right to remark it because you
had not the courage ta originate It. If you
hava no case against Mr. Uryan , which you
have ftlrcndnrlrtttnlly admitted by citing Ir-
iclevant. Incompetent lieresny to provo your
charge , your Blunder * will > " harmless no
far as ho Is concerned , but can you nfford
to be published to the world as a peddler
of Rlnmlprn which you cannot prove ? If
you hnvo any friends who supposed you
wcro both honest nnd brnVe , they will bo
sorely disappointed If you fn" to frankly

EiiRcno V. Uebs has wilttcn under date of

and fusion between the democrats and pop

and frankly. He says , referring to fusion
and the present condition ot the national
tickets :
Without the support of tbc populists Un
democratic party could not win. The popu
lists , animated by patriotic motive * ) , no-
oordrd llrst honors to the domorratn , and
the democrats , If they are animated by sim

second planby placing Mr. Watson on the

afford to step aside to cITect this union nf
I lie * two great forces nnd Insure the election
of the people's candidates. Such action on
the part of Mr. Scwull would make him a
far irrenler nntn tlmn the vice ptcsldeticy.
PallfiiK to accord the people's party such

between Mr. Urj-nn und the democratic ;
party. If the hitter's only ambition IH to

There are people who will say. remarks
the llrooklyn Eagle , that the proposition
to establish a bird day In the public schools ,
as we now have an arbor day , Is folderol ,
and that at the rate things are going the
schools will soon be held In Kort Greene
and Prospect park In&tead of In the school
houses. Even this last proposal , It It should
bo made , might be defended on the ground
that the parks are belter ventilated than
the school houses and that the open air
would tend to t'ivo to the children the
sound bodies that are even of more moment
than sound minds.
Hut to bird day , as It la suggested by
the secretary of agriculture , there con be
no valid objection , and for it there are
many reasons , intellectual , sentimental and
financial. It is a notorious fact that the
native birds have been decreasing rapidly
of late 3 ears and that the small boy who
hunts and his little brother who collects
'birds' ' eggs are factors In this result. With
this has come a steady Increase ot Insect
pests , the weevil , the army worm , the potato
tate bug , the seventeen-year locust , the
tussock moth , the tiger moth and n list
of lesser pests that would run half way
down a column. The crops.of the country
are worth about ? ) .030,000,000 a year and
one authority estimates that the damage
to these by Insects average about 10 per
cent , or $400,000,000 a year.
Now , of all these pests the bird Is the
natural enemy , and If the stock could be
replenished to something what It was when
the country had more forests and fewer
people the loss on crops from Insect de
struction would be very sensibly diminished ,
though not probably entirely overcome.
Then there are the song birds which used
to be one of the delights oi life hi tno coun
try and on the outskirts of every town.
Now the note oftenest to be heard , unless
one seeks the seclusion of a genuine forest ,
is the strident chirp of the English sparrow ,
a bird which , although It does sumo good in
the destruction of Insects , does more harm
In driving away our less warlike , but more
useful , native songsters.
The ideaof , bird day , as Secretary Morton
has outlined tt. Is to teach children to
know more about the birds , to love them ,
and through their Intercut in them to re
frain fiom their destruction. The plan
has been trlt-d In two cities. Oil City , Pa. ,
and Fort Madison , V.'ls. In both places the
experiment has proved so successful that It
will be continued. Oil City has had u bird
day for three yeara , anil there the plan
has been systematized. From January until
June twenty minutes twite a week are
aiven up to the study ot birds , familiarizing
the children with those which stay all win
ter and making them acquainted with the
new al rivals as they come along , so that
they know them both by sight and by song.
Then , on bird day , the children have reci
tations from poets aud prose writers , sup
plemented by compositions of their own ,
In which they describe what they have
seen and learned about the little brothers
of the air.
Who shall say that such knowledge as
that is nut at least aa desirable as alge
bra and geometry ? The first object of
education is to arouse the interest of the
pupil , and for that purpose bird day would
prove Invaluable. The least bookish boy
will waken into life when he is sent to
find out all he can about the oriole or the
thrush , and he might even be tempted Into
learning to write compositions when it waste
to tell thu results of his explorations. Hoys
so stimulated will be less likely to destroy
the llltlo creatures whobht ways they have
learned to understand. Fashion will do
almost anything with the feminine tem
perament , but It Is dlfllcult to Imagine a gen
eration of girls so brought up graduating
Into young women who wear wings on each
aide of their hats.
By all means let us have a bird day , and
simple preliminary Instruction , like that at
Oil City.

NUW YOUK. Aug. 17. A special to the
lletald from Canea says : Your correspond
ent has had a talk with Chousseln Hey a

said : "Wo most carefully hope that the
Sublime Porte will not accept the proposi
tions made by the Christian deputies. We
Mussulmans would rather die 'h.in llvo
under the conditions they seek to place upon
us. I deny , and wo all deny , that there la
any truth in the stories Heated by llio
Christians that our soldiers are gull'y of

If wo are left to ourselves wo can sotUo the
whole matter , In , say. three months , Wo

In Athens thu members ot the Cretan

opposing parties , therefore , it would seem
that the overtures of thu powers are un
welcome and thai Christians and Turks ollko
would prefer to be allowed to settle their
differences as best they might between
themselves. The archbishop , rlnuto was
asked whether he could see any solution
without war. He answered : "I fo.ir not ,
unless there Is n favorable reply "rom tha
Porte to the just demands of 'ho riii'latlun
people. There is too much bltiorioss txlst-
Ing between Christians and Turks for ani
mosities to bo smoothed ovor. '
The archbishop parried a suggestion that
such an attitude was contrary : o I'hrH'Un. '
teaching. Regarding the possible w'th-
drawal ot the powers he said : ' 'Notuially
the powers interfered unasicsd.v j l.iivo

A Cult nnil Slio Hour Kllloil by a
Tirol vi-\ 'iir-OI < l Oregon < ilrl.
Miss Hose , a pretty 12-year-old girl , living
at Uandolph , Coos county Ore. , Is the heroine
of an exciting adventure with a bear , Cooa
county , which U In southeastern Oregon ,
abounds In all kinds of big game. The
young girl frequently rambles in the woods ,
shooting squirrels , jack rabbits , and Denny
pheasants with u parlor rllld , with which shu
Is an expert. She Is also an angler , and
often comes home "with a good string of
trout.
A few days ago , while In a lonely spot
In the pine woods , far away from her
home , she came upon a cub bear Slio In
stantly raised the rllle to her shoulder and
fired a tiny Gullet lute the cub's heart. The
squalling of the cub brought the mother
bear oul of her hole , and she rushed at the
> oung girl ferociously. Miss Hose stood her
ground and fired oae shot , putting out an
eye and causing thu blood to trickle down
the bear's face. The girl was being crowded
Into close quarters when her pet dog , a
little fox terrier , grasped the situation and
began barking furiously at the big bear's
heel . 1 imo nnd again the big animal charged
the little terrier , .but without success , All
this time the girl was shooting liny bullets
behind the bear's left car. The tenth shot
made Mother Hruln measure her leiiRlh.
Miss Hose then went to her home , and her
father and uncle drove a team to the woods
and carted the bear and the cub homo.
The big bear was seven feet long and
weighed 250 pounds. The girl said that
the exciting adventure did not cause her to
lose her bead.
"If 1 had been excited , " she said , "I
would have lost niy life , as the big bear
was awfully put out because I killed the
little one. "
