Jack Swartz, la the hero of the latest bear story, a few evenings since Swartz was awakened near the witching hour of midnight by a peculiar sound out In his orchard. Notwithstanding the weather was slightly cool, Mr. Swartz started tor the orchard clad only in his night shirt. He discovered a dark object under a sweet apple tree near tha center of the orchard and started In the direction of the mysterious vis itor. When near the object, an omin ous growl caused electricity to creep the eutire length of every hair on Jack's head. In the dim light he discovered that the visitor who was helping him self to sweet apples was a large black bear. For a moment the engineer was paralyzed. Then he turned towards the house and broke the world's record for sprinters as he put distance between himself and the bear. Jack has re covered from a season of palpitation of the heart, which followed, but he cannot be persuaded to take moonlight strolls In the orchard. The bear has disappeared. TAYLOR.

Washington, Oct. 21. Although the proceedings of the board of directors of the Catholic university, which began its session today were hedged about with secrecy, some portion of the busi ness transacted has become known. It was anticipated that the vacancies in the bonrd to be filled today would be tilled by the selection of churchmen not In sympathy with Archbishop Ireland and Bishop Keane. The contiary.how ever, proved the case. 1 he resignation of Bishop Keane as a member ut the board, tendered at the same time that he resigned the head ship of the university at the request of the Pope, was declined. This action wns of course, largely due to the per sonal regard in which the deposed ref tor Is held. Another vacancy had beet caused In the board by the death o' L'lshop Martin, of St. Cloud, who, dur ing his life was a strong adherent of the party opposed to Archbishop Ire land and It was supposed that his suc cessor would hold similar views. Arch bishop Hlordan, of San Francisco, a friend of Archbishop Ireland, was elect ed and this. It Is claimed, places a strong and influential member of the American party in the board. The meeting was presided over by Cardinal Gibbons, as chancellor of the university. Among the other directors present were Archbishop Corrigan, of New York; Archbishop Williams, of Boston; Archbishop Ryan, of Philadel phia; Archbishop Ireland, of St. Paul; Archbishop Chappell, of Santa Fe; Bishop lla8, of Covington; BIshnp Foley, of Detroit; Bishop Horstman, of Cleveland; Bishop Farley, auxiliary bishop of New York; Father Thomas E. Leo, pastor of St. Mathews' church, of this city, and Mr. Thomas E. Wagga mnn, also of Washington. There we'e prcpent also ns ex-nfTlolo wtrhors of the board, who are not en titled to a vote on any of th questions presented: Archbishops Elder, of Cin cinnati: Katzer, of Milwaukee; Rior dan, of Fan Fr.inceo; Kay, of St. Loul?: Gross, of Oregon, and Fecnau, of Chicago. Although the fact could not be ascer tained with positiveness there Is good reason to believe that the three names were agreed upon before the meeting adjourned today, for presentation to the pope, as puccessor to Bishop Keane. Those present refused absolutely to dis cuss the matter. The chairman so far named In connection with the rector ship are the following: Father Connty. hend of the Catholic Summer school of Philosophy at I'latt burg.N. Y.; Father Brann, of St. Agnes' church, New York; The Very Rev. Hewitt, of the Paullst congregation. New York; Dr. Edward P. Allen, head of St. Mary's semlnnry, Emmlttsburg, Md.; Bishop Hnauldintj, of Penrla: Horstman, of Cleveland, and Becker, of Georgia: Archbishop Clianelle, of Santa Fe, and Dr. Garrlgan, acting rec tor of the University. BUTLER IN A BICYCLE RUNAWAY. Populist National Chairman Covered with FandnecK n n Resnlt. Washington, Oct. 21. Mark Hanna will doubtless be accused by the ailvor men of another campaign outrage that of eoTistilrlnii with a bicycle-maker to disable Senator Butler of the Populist uutiutial committee. About the time he opened the Popu list headquarters her? genntor Butler bought a bicycle. Last night he tried to come down Capitol hill. His feet slipped off the pedals and he lost control of the machine. Fortunately for the Populist party he had a clear roadway and was able to keep In the aaddle until he reached the bottom of the hill. There he fell, and he spent his Sunday In bed covered with arnica bandages. No Ixines were broken, and he will be able to steer the Populist party through the remainder of the campaign.

How many women go radiantly to the altar, only to pass mi fpw short montht of agony nnd pain, and then go down Ttaere is one cause ! of this ever-recurring tragedy. No woman should enter the marriage state without some knowledge of the physiology of tin female organs of reproduction, and of the necessity of keeping them always healthy and vigorous. Ignorance on these points dig9 graves for thousands of happy brides but a few mouths' journey from the altar. There is a sure and speedy remedy at hand. The most marvelous medicine ever dis covered for women is Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It is the discovery of a most ; eminent and skillful spcialist. Dr. R. V. j Pierce, chief consulting physician to the In valids' Hotel and Surgical "Institute, at Buf falo, N. Y. It acts directly on the delicate organs that make will-hood and motherhood I possible. It makes them healthy und I strong, it cures an weakness ami uiseuse. Taken during the expectant period it in sures a healthy baby and makes parturition easy and almost painless. Women who wish to know all about the " Favorite Pre scription " should write to Dr. Pierce. Mrs. W. Robinson, Springtillt. Cumberland Co Nova Scolia. writes- " I feci that I cannot say euuiiih nliout your 'Favorite Prescription. I was confined on the Stli of April, and 1 wns only i.-k about thirty minutes in nil. I cm truthfully uv that vour medicine worked wonders in my cas?. Although the physician was in the house I did not seem to require his nicl. I Bin going around ilnlui? my own work and before 1 had to keep a girl three months till 1 was nhle to do my work. 1 recommended the medicine to a lady friend of mine and she is taking it. She exprcti te become a mother next mouth." Constipation if neglected will lead the most robust to the doctor's office. The blood gets loaded down with impurities which it deposits in every organ and tissue in the body. Serious illness is the inevi table result. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure constipation. They are prompt and ?leasant in their action. They never gripe, hey cure permanently, nnd are not mere tcmoorary palliatives. Dnigeists sell them.
