'I ho Wiisou is rapidly gaiuiug the pre

The season for bear stories is about
although it is well known that the
mountains are full of them. The la.
gteat bear adventure that h;is beeu pub
lished occurred iu Eik county, when
Captain Mjy, the hi'eut Uiau of the
fiiiiailelphi:; and Erie railroad, dis
patched oi.e of these monstrous beasts
altera ten i3o encounter. Now comes
another story This time it occured up
in Centre county.niid th( Btllefonto 7i't-
jmhUcint tells nil about it, us follows:
From Mr. Miles Zimmcrmnn, of But 11
uide towutthip, wo learn the following
particulars of the killing of a larg bear:
His brother, William Zimmeriuau, u
boy eighteen years, of age, while out fox
hunting in tho above township, on Mon
day, March 2i'd, was attracted to a
thicket of laurels by the fierce barking
of his dogs. Coming closer, ho found
them in a large windfall; creeping
quietly up ou the opposite tide, he saw
.- bear sittiug under the roots of a fal
len tree, fighting off the dogs. Survey
ing the situation, he concluded that
uow was his chance tor a shot, and a
ucky shot he made of it the ball en
'eiiiig and breaking bis neck. After
being dressed, bruin weighed two hun
dred and tbirty-tiiue pouuds. Tioga
Agitator.
May Chamberliiyne, who is now sis
teen years ot age, sued Johu Bute
Holmes, a New 1'ork city surveyor,
who is ubout lilty yeais old, for breach
of promise, claiming SoO.000 damages,
has beeu awarded 0,0u0.
Mrs. Malioski, a Chicago women,
who is charged with having poisoucd
her family iu order to rid them of their
earthly troubles and to give herself a
little innocent eseiteaient, is said to
have had her attention first turned to
the subject of poisoning by reading a
history of the ctimcs of Mrs. Sherman,
the so-called Couuectieut Borgia. This
is apparently another instance of the
evil effect which sometimes follows the
reading of stories ot ctimiual deeds.
A Detroit gentleman walking behind
two school children the other day heard
the boy inquire, "Will you be at the
party to-night'!"' "I shall be there,"
answered the miss, "but 1 may as well
tell you now that your love is hopeless.
Mamma is determined, father is set, and
it isu't right for m to encourage your
a'.tentioa. I cod be a sister to you, but
Dothing more. Therefore you needn't
buy me any v&leotiue or give ina any
