Carious Kind of a Hone Deal In Which a
' Coterie of Well-Known Uentlo
men Are Mixed I p.
Lieutenant of Police Thornns Ij.
Williams. Constable Timothy Jones,
Bpeclul Officer nrooks Uasa, and I.lv
eryman James Wymbs are In a peck of
trouble and "out" about $1 each. It
was all the result of nilfpluced confi
dence In the value of horse HeHh. About
one week nco two horses were picked
up on the streets by the police. The
animals were g-lven to Mr. Wymbs for
safe keeping until the owners would
claim their own. Two days passed but
the horses still fed upon the fat of the
Wymbs brand of fodder. They were
curious specimens of their kind. Ac
cording to custom advertisements were
placed In the city papers, begRinif that
the owners would come with a halter.
The ads cost $2.65. Wednesday one f
the owners put In an appearance. He
wanted his horse, a pretty animal with
an Innocent whitty face. Mr. Wymbs
figured up the expenses: For fodder,
J2; for advertisements. $2.6.': total.
$4.63. The bill was presented. Then
there was a scene. The owner of the
pussy-faced horse would not pay the
bill. The horse was not worth It he
sntd. "Well, what's the value?" nsked
, Mr. Wymbs. "Two dollnrs." said the
horseman, and the money, was paid.
Hut the other horse remained and it
was whispered that the money lost
would be charged to the other account.
The other owner came. "How much?"
he asked. With a smile of sattafnctlon
Mr. Wymbs made a little preliminary
speech before announcing the amount.
He told how well the horse had been
kept, how fat he had grown, and how
tenderly he had been cared for since he
had been a boarder at the Wymbs barn.
Furthermore, newspaper advertising
was very expensive, especially before
the holldnys. Then he presented the
bill of $7.6S.
"Why. Great Scott!" he said, "I paid
only $5 for the horse when I llrst bought
It."
The horse still feeds unon the WvmbB
old at auction.

MARSH KILLS TbEAR.
Scranton Sportsman, with lloer, lias an
Experience on tho I'oeono.
While hunting on the Tocono moun
tain near Gouldsboro Saturday, Clem
Marsh, of this city, killed a bear.
Marsh was accompanied by Fred Hoey,
the pigeon shot, of Hollywood. N. J.
The men were separated by ubout
thirty rods and were leisurely beating
through the forest for partridges. Their
two dogs, pointers, were working along
ahead when one suddenly halted. He
stood growling and with hair bristling
and tall lowered, an attitude never as
sumed In tho woods by n bird dog un
less In the presence of big game or a
dead body. Marsh was nearer than
Hoey to the dog and tried to call him,
but the pointer wouldn't budge. An
ticipating the sight of something un
usual. Marsh hurried toward the dog
and as he ran heard a loud crashing of
bushes and snapping of twigs. When
he reached the dog, which was now
greatly excited and barking furiously,
three bears were seen by the hunter
clambering out of a small hollow and
up the mountain.
He Substituted Buckshot.
Marsh's gun was loaded with No 8
shot, a small charge even for b'lrd'i anl
which would make about as much Im
pression nn tho hide of a bear as would
raindrops on the" surface of the ocean.
He realized that If any of the game was
to be killed, It must be done quickly;
so he threw open the breach of Ii In
piece, cast tho No. 8 shells hurriedly
aside and slipping two shells of buck
shot Into the barrels. This only occu
pied a few seconds but the three bears
were eight or nine rods away and scam
pering at a lively clip.
Marsh got a bead on one of the two
smaller ones and let drive. Ills aim
was good nnd brought bruin to the
ground, where he lay writhing in agony.
The chnrge had entered the back of tho
neck near the bqse of the head. Un
willing to take any chances of having
only stunned the bear, Marsh fired the
load In the remaining barrel Into almost
the identical spot that received the
first charge. The bear was then dead.
Hear Rronsht to This City.
The animal was brought to Scranton
and nil of Sunday and yesterday the
exploit was the oldef topic of conversa
tion In gunning circles. Hooy was ns
tickled as n boy with a red wagon. He
left for New York and Hollywood last
night nnd will be pardoned If he tells
his friends how he and Marsh killed the
beur.

COMING ATTRACTIONS.
A merry Christmas attraction nt the
Academy of Muelc will be Oliver-Byron
8U ported by Kate Byron and their ex
cellent company In "The Upa and
Downs of Life." The success of the
piece, which was assured from the
commencement, was partly due to the
splendid effects. Tho farcical comedy
part of the play consists of a very amus
ing parties believing that they had cap
tlsement in a newspaper, the contract
ing parties believing that hey had cap
tured respectively a lord and lady,
whereas one Is a clerk and the other a
servant girl. The fun over the situation
is immense and contributes consider
ably to the success of the play.
