It is said that the bears have been nursing their wrath and thirsting for blood until their claws are full a yard long, hooked like a cocklebur and it is a known fact that the tusks of the bears stand out, like the spears of the Austrian phalanx and are as sharp as a two-edged swori. It has come to be so that papeteric and areas simple as ''Mary had a little lamb." A royal battle -Is anticipated. Come early and get a seat where the hair and sand wont fly in your face. The date of the affray has been changed from Friday night to Saturday night so that Prof J. W.

Ireland, of Stanford, could be here to referee the contest. The skirmishing will begin at 7:30 o'clock and will continue until the bears have scratched out the eyes of boars or the boars have gashed the jugulars of the bears. A reward of five dollars will be given to the side that shows the least blood and a reward of two dollars and a half will be given to the bear or boar that comes out unscrutched. In order to pay the expenses of the contest a fee of ten ceuts will 1e charged at the door. A FIERCE NIGHT ALARM.

is the hoarse, startling cough of a child, suddenly attacked by croup. Often it aroused Lewis Chambljn, of Manchester, 6., for their four children wtre greatt7 subject to croup. ''Sometimes in severe at tacks," he wrote "we were afraid they would die, but since we proved what a certain remedy Dr. King's New discovery is. we have have no tear Wt rely on it for croup and for coughs, colds or any throat or lung trouble." So do thousands of others.

woke up and found his house in a mass of flames. Frightened, he began trying to get his family- out, but' fate was against him and his wife and four children burned' to crisp. Gentry very badly and oue of the other children that escaped the flames is in a very serious condition, Wc sometimes think that our troubles are more than we can bear; but just think, with family of seven children only three remain. Gentry is hard working man and lives by tho sweat of the brow. Hut the people of Livingston ate douating freely as is their duty.

This the second time be has lost his home by fire. Gentry's home was about one mile from town and no one lived close. What remained of the bodies were buried Monday. Mrs G. D.

We see that Gov. James B. McCreary has opposition again. Now, we waut to say to this man who has just announced, although you are Democrat and we are proud of you, you are the wrong mau in the wrong place at this time. The old "war horse" will sweep everything in his course.

nmte was declared oT r. jit iBiaineen signea.oy representatives of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Fremen and Knginemen and Horace Baker, general mauager of the railroad. The agreement is to all appearance a promise, both sides yielding several points in the dispute. In short the agreement holds that employes who went out on a strike shall be re instated, the railroad company however reserving the right to refuse too employ any firemen who has committed anv act of violence during the strike. Negro firemen cannot be employed north of Oakdale, Tennessee.

The percentage of negroes employed on January ist, 191 1 shall not be exceeded hereafter and negro fire men cannot be assigned to more than one-hall of the passenger and preferred freight ruus. In case any question arises over the new agreement either side may appeal to Judge Martin A. Knapp of Washington, and his decision. in the matter shall be final. The railroad company gives it out that during the strike three have been killed, six wounded and property destroyed to the amount of several thousand dollars.

This however, is believed here to he underestimated. Men who have watched affairs say that more than a dozen have been shot nud at least six killed. i The agreotnent between the company and officials seeius'tomept the approval ''of nil the firemen.
