Then ho qnit and went homo. Ever after that Tohy wonld snap and growl ut Crowley whenever he saw him. "One, day I was looking over a log ging job I hnd contracted for nnd discov ered signs of bear along tho creek. Next day Toby nud I went ont to see what we conld do with the bear. We soon struck tho trail, nnd Toby located tho bear in a smnll patch of Innrnls, from which ho soon routed lirnin. He brought tho bear to hay in a little opon space in a piece of chestnut timber. There was 110 necessity of the hear turning at bay, bnt he evidently wantod to get a whnck nt Tohy. I conld have easily sont a bnl lct through tlio bear, bnt hnving tho ut most confiih neo in Toby's smartness, nnd seeing t lint tho bear was nuxious to pnt his smartness r.gainst tho clog's, I concluded to let him havo thoohanoo and to enjoy tho sport of a few minutes' maneuvering between tho twa "It w?.t fnn. Toby worried tho nl rcudy nj;ly old chap with tricks nnd quick movements until tho bear was Wild with rage. Do what ho inilit, ho couldn't get a blow or n bite in on Toby, while Tohy got a nip at the bear at al most every turn. This nmnntng dance Insted for ton minutes, and I folt so proud of my clog that I declared thero and then that it would tako a good deal morn than n 100 hill to buy htm. "Somo wise old natives of thoso woods nssnred me, afterward that what this bear finally did was a promoditatod net, doliberntely nnd successfully carried out ns planned. Others declared that it wns an afterthought of tho bear's. I myself hold nnd hold yet that it was entirely nn accident, becnuso I will not admit that there ever was n bearsmnrt enough to firt tho better of Toby by dosign. "After sparri ng nnd rushing fruitless ly nt tho clog for ton minutes the boar pnt his back ugninst n trite and brent lied linrd for nt least a minute. Then it sud denly dropped to all fours and hurried toward another treo a rod or so away. Tohy followed, and as tho boar started to climb tho tree seized it by one of its hams. Although tho dog must have set his teeth deep in tho flush, tho bear did not stop on his way, but climbed on as if nothing was worrying him. Tho dog hold on nnd was lifted from tho ground as tlio bear climbed. Tho higher the bear went the tighter Toby appenrod to hung on to its rear, unil presently he was swinging in the air 15 foot from the gronnd. "The sight was so funny that I just tnmhh'd on the gvouiidcuid roared. Tho beur stopped when ubunt 15 foot np the trunk of the treo, clung there for a mo ment, and then let looso. Ho came down like a pile ilnver. When ho struck ut the bottom of tho treo, Toby was be tween him unci tho ground. There wns a faint yelp, and that was nil. Three hundred ponuds of boar had flattened 40 pounds of dog out of all kind of shnpe. Tiie catastrophe was so sudden and unexpooted that bofore I could re cover from the puinlul surprise it guve me the bear had disappeared in the luu rols. Thore never was a smarter bear dog than Toby, bnt he wasn't ont out for an acrobat. Thore is whore he made bis mistake. Thero novor was a smarter dog than Toby, nor was there ever a deader one when that bear got off of him." New York Bun. Mrs. lluutiug-tou's Baths. Mrs. C. P. Huntington recently got a now maid.

The method by which tho Vandorhilt dlvorco was arranged is a senndal to our jurisprudence. Worse than that, it is an influence for the degradation of pnhllo morals and the breaking down of the popnlnr senso of right and wrong. Practically Mr. nnd Mrs. Vanderhilt divorced themselves. There was no bearing beforo a court. Tho parties did not appear beforo the tribunal. There wns no pnblio proof of infidelity on either sido to sorve as a punishment to the guilty party or ns n deterrent In fluence in the case of others. Thowholo matter wns nrrnnged by dicker. Tho only function of tho court was to giro legal effect t') tho terms of too ha;-;; H. Is it, then, tho privilege of llioiir'.i to annul their marriages nt pleasmo ly mutual agreement? The law, rigidly en forced against nil ordinary eitixnis, ju-. . scribes that collusion between hu ikr. 1 and wife shnll bo an elTeciiial ami p. i' omptory bar to divorce Vet this rich man nnd woman havo sont their law yers into court with a collusive ngreo ment already made; tho court has mp prossed tho evidnnco agreed to bo pre sented by sending the coso to a referee instead of hearing it in opon session; the referee bus nindo a report in accord ance with tho terms of tho dicker; tho court has afllrmcd it, ordering tho pa pers sealed so that thoro mny be no scandal which menns simply thnt tho gnilty party shall be spared all social shame and Inconvenionco nnd tho terms of tho oollusivo agreement havo been embodied in a decree which au thorizes one party to marry again nt pleasure and imposes upon tho other a prohibition of mnrriago which is ns in effectual as a bull against a comet. In saying this we do not mean to re flect upon Justice Uarrett lie is a judgo whoso eminent learning nnd conspicu ous service are properly appreciated by the community. But in this matter ho is the instrument of a vicious systom which prevails, wo believe, only iu Kew York and which certainly docs not ob tain in most of tho other states. Unless we accept the nnolean doctriuo of free love, marriage and divorce aro not in any sense private matters. Tho family relation lies at the very founda tion of tooiety. Divorce equally with marriage is a matter of pnblio concern and should bo decreed only after a pnb lio hearing and pnblio proof of statutory cause. A case of this kind sets an example of the most peruioions character imagina ble. It means to the majority thnt thero is one law for tlio rich and another for the rest of us. It moans that if you hnve money enough your mnrriago vows mny count for nothing. It menus thnt your misconduct will bo carefully guard ed against cxposuro by nil tho authority the courts possess. It means that while collusive divorco proceedings aro per emptorily thrown out of conrt in tho caso of ordinary persons a multimil lionaire and his wife may nrrnugo such a procooding in full nssurnnce that it will bo ratiliod by the courts, and that all the scandalous details will bo secure ly bidden beneath tho sacred seal of tho tribunal.

Tho son nuemone is vory sensitive. It closes nt n hostile or thoughtless touch, not rapidly, for it can't do any thing very rapidly, but as rapidly ns it can, curling its tentacles inward and covering them over with its outer skin and flattening it down upon tho rock. Bnt it is not disturbed by its friends. In ono of the smaller glass tiiiiki ut tho city's nquarlum at Castle Garden thero are severnl little sea anemones taken from spiles nnd stones about the Bat tery. Iu tho saiuo tank, almost wi'.hlu roach of these anemones, are souio com mon barnacles little ones, half rm inch or so in diameter. Lacking in bennty I as the barnacle may bo, it Is provid d with a liMt-t wonderful handliku mem bi r, wl.ii h it throws up from i's shell, j with which it sweeps tho water for I food, tho nilmito nulmalculio upon Which it fci.ls. Ono of thesn barnnelos is so close to ono of tho littlo anemones Hint when he flings his net it nlmost or quito touches the tips of the anemone's tentacles, which spread liko tho most delicate nnd feathery branches of tho tiniest littlo tree. But tho anemone doesn't close np. Not a bit Hero down deep in tho tank its brnnchos wnve in tho gently agitat ed water, nt, dellento ns they are, they might do in the gentlest zephyrs on tho land, nnd they wave and wavo as tho bnrnnelo throws its net. Perhaps tho sea aueiuoiio hits its owu benefit in mind through all this, for it Is qnlto probnblo that tho ngltntion of tho water brings to it food that it might not otherwise recoivo; but, however thnt may be, the fact remains that tho littlo auemono that would cluso nt t!:o slightest touch of an enemy is quito undisturbed by nny thing that its friend nnd neighbor the baruaelo might do.
