may ls he always com in the spriug

step was heard. She did not turn tier
j head, but her heart accelerated its mo

Facts for Mr. Black.
In his puny attempt to pile up sins,
mountains high, against the Republican
party, and to extol the turrits of PeuiiK--r:u-y
to the skies, Chaum- y F. Black, the
Free Trade candidate for tiovernor, ha
forgotten so many important facts n-luting
to Republicanism, us "ell as to Ismius--racy,
that we deem it our duty to refresh-
nis memory. ,
We therefore remind him that the
Iem. rati.; party ha Wn iiwparably
I identified with slavery, succession, rebel
j lion and Free Trmle. The Republican
I party h:is been inseerably identiti.-l

Hospitality Analyzed.
I
I Analyie tlie feelmir of h.s'pita'iry to it
! gnin-l w..rk and frjo- its development,
j and tlie coiumon estiauite of the hospi-
taiity f. und among various persons and
people will hav to b retunstm ted. It
is eeuf;ally a sympathetic feeling and
has had the orig n of the other sympa
thetic feelings. H.ispitality. though often
very prominent, is not always what it
seems. Such a feeling as this. dire, ted
toward making other conitr.r'ahle, if
not happy, at one ow n expense of ef
fort or property, usually both, is found in
the lower races incr-tiie fomi. apparently
much re.'ml'ling the hospitality of the
most developed pss'ples, but in reality
coasiderably uiiiifceit in substance. Tlie
main spring of ai tiou, at tirst. is the
probability tiiat it will be returned ;
there is a mere exchange of services :n
situations where now one is in need of &
hoet and now tne other: ttie host ex
pect to get even with the guest by in
turn heo-ming his guest.
' )ut : of this very primitive condition 01
hospital ty pe. pie grow ad they travel
Cut her rrni home and enter situations
in which the n inforrs of some one else'
home ;1! br particuiarly ;igreeable. for
a D'ght i-r s-ane bnef time. But the
host, in such case, realize that, very like
ly, he w :il never have the opportunity of
tiei-oiuir.g the guc-t of his 4'iest. H"spi
tality then becomes si.mewhat like a
bill of exciuingt payable eventually by
the one .vho dm it but in the tirt in
stance by another Til' entertainer ex
pMt. tii culiei-t out of oiue tiiiri party,
to whom the g-H-st will repay. H s-pi-talify
then attains that stage in which it
is a c!it..(ii ; the host entertains guest,
who will never repay him. but he knuw 4
that he will have occasion to draw up
on other people for the same kind of en
tertainment. There is hardly a tr.-e of
altruistic feeling . ;t is. almost entirely
egoistic.
Hospitality, however. Ui omes an ale
.)lutely cert-iin and known quantity,
hist like any other well established cil
tutu. 1 me may travel and know that he
may dm I free et,tet.iinmeiit at any house
r.-anip where he may stop. He will not

A Wyoming Bear Story.
! At the nearest ranch on the western

I himself at the Cot infa uvnintain. B--j
Sire bis l..j was finished, he went out
: one day arc! k:ll.l 4 tire fat -leer.
Fringing the cart-.ti home at n'g'if, he
hung it up agiiirist the ba k ..f his h'ise.

doorway whi-h was i!l witinmt a d.s.r.
he Went U; bed. He slept soundly, but
there dimly see me. i to him to he some
disturViance aNrnt the house .luring the
night: and when he went out in the
morning, every bit of his fine -l.r was
gone, and the bear tracks np and .town
the monntin-ide showed what had be
come of it. But game was plentiful, and
it w is not long before his deer w is re
rlacetl by a hti h.nrne.1 sheep, which is
the m.t tender and j u.-y nient thaf ever
waseaten. This time he wa tuore 1 an
fill, and lay awake half the night, fear
ing tiiat he -hoilid l.se his t.s k of fre-h
meat. When it was very late and he tf.i
aismt to give np watching, he at last
heari a sound at the buck i.fthe hotis,-.
.Something was at work on bis wild mut
ton. There was a noise f scratching and
tearing. It seemed as if several lar
were making short work with his meat.
He eied his loade.1 r.tle and ju'iiped
Hit of lie.1 with very scanty cs.tlung on.
n.tng t the disirway and draw.ng .is.de
the blanket he saw that the night wa
cloudy and as .lark as Egypt. He stoo
ped and thought for a m Client tiiat it
would be imp.;! ile t kiil a t.ir in
u h darkness, even If be should be able
to hit it. S rthese beitst. are so touub, tii.it
theyw.il carry a do-n buiietj. a's-tif iu
their !sii-s without mta ii inc. .n .cna nce
if they are not wounded in the heart ;.r
brain. S oiir friend laid down his nrie
and took instead a loaded shot gun.
"" Tliis is the thing ti.r them." he aid to
himself; " it will pepper them all ov.-r
and are them 01 that t:iey w.l! never
come again." Tlien with g'lti in h.iti.1.
he silently ciimiied the pn jceting
lisgs.W the nearest corner of the cabin,
and creeping acr" the nsif. peej-ed civer
tiie edge als.ve ttie pliu e where ti.e b'p
was hmig. S.mething appeared to Is
movii. below in the darkness.. Tiaing
a rm.l.Mu ainu he blar.1 .. The
shot scattered and evidently took e.'h.-f :
for there arete a chorus of gt-i.wl and
howl and veil that w..ti!d m. made
the bravet man hair stand "n end ;
there was a tampering and -hurfling
many teet up and down, and around the
cabin : even in the thick darkin-s tie
could see many great fat creature run
ning and sniffing angrily about to rind
who had attacked them. He aw tiiat
he was ls-siege.1 on his own ns-t by at
least a dozen furious, hungry hear.
" Tliey didn't scare worth a cent," he
tiid. It was not long is-fore they dis
covere.1 whem-e the hot had come, and
knowing very well that there is strength
in numis-r. they determined to have
that man fbr upjr. even if thy ho-i to

Si while -..me sat down here and there,
the other walked about, grunting and
growling over their injnne). Bear can
climb .pnte as well as men. and old
Frink t.l with fear and trembling in
the middle of the roof, ready to receive
with the hurt of his gun the firt nose
tliat shou!,l"rise alsve the edge. If two
had happened to mount t.hep-f.n op
posite sitl.-s, there w.ttild have t-en a
small chan.e of life for the p..r man.
But the bear thought that solid gnund
was the sufer place 6 r them, there
they staid ; and up alxive sat old Fntnk

ugly beasts, he bore his discotitfort as
het he 11 .til. 1. The hour of tiiat n ght
seemed to Is endless, and the chili grew
terrible : but at last a dull griy streak
apts-ared in the East. No man was ever
more glad to see the first sign of dawn
than was that chilly watcher. Bears ar
