TWO £EN IN A BOAT ESCORT A BEAR 80ME DISTANCE A8 HE SWAM ACROSS OCMULGEE RIVER. Mr. Ward law Norton had an ex per lenco with a bear Saturday, and then waa no fake about It. but a true bill. Mr. Norton and a friend took i launch for a trip down the Ocmulget river to phoot ■quirreli. Juat befo* Bullard's while they had the prow of the boat headed for the bank that they might land and get Into the (all tlm* Lor, they auw a bear awltnmlng across the river. The sight whs an unusual one. and it whs some few minutes before they could recover from the shock of sur prise. not to cay fear. 'But It was evident that a bear In the water swim ming must be harmless and they re covered self-possession. Then came the question of how to get him. Brum paid but little attention to the men In the boat as he swam right alongside the boat for some distance. Mr. Nor ton says he could have caught hold of hla ears at one time, he was ao close to the boat. The two men thought that perhaps they could rapture him In some way, Just how they fall to say, and they al lowed him to swim along and get a considerable distance away, going In the direction of the bank, which at this point waa a high bluff. Then the yshot nt him..They had only squir rel shot shells, and these the bear did not seem to mind any moro than If they had been mosquito bites. Six loads were fired Into the bear, and he failed to even quiver. Finding that their shots were of no use. and that trying to overtake him with the boat wss now out of tho question, they looked on while tho hear climbed out on the hank and was soon lost in the woods. The men landed on the other side of the river, not because they were afraid of tack ling the bear on dry land, but be cause they thought there were squir rels on the other side. Lettsr to Morris Harris, Macon. Ga. Dear Sir: Nobody Insures a $1000 house for $2000. because everybody knows that the Company pays oniy for the damage, whatever that was, and no more. If people knew that It costs -twice as much to pnlnt with $1.25 paint as with $1.70. there wouldn't bo’ much $1.25 painting done. There are people who think $1.$5 Is cheap for pnlnt. and they paint their houses with It; two gallons tdr one. It takes two gallons of $1.25 paint to make one gallon $1.75; and* It costs $3 a gallon to pnlnt It One gallon $1.75; $3 for painting It on: $4.,75. That's the Job. AN AMU8INQ OCCURRENCE ON POPLAR STREET LATE SAT URDAY NIGHT. People on Poplar street late Satur day night were treated to an amusing occurrence. Two white men who In the oourse of their peregrinations about the city had evidently touched aorne secret spring of Joy, ahd were loaded for bear, were going down the street engaged In a quarrel. About the time they were in -front of Max Harris' store, the quarrel had reached the boiling over stag*. Coming up the stroct. with his stick In front, rroplnv his way was the blind negro Charlie, who knows every brick In the sidewalk on Poplar street. The more belligerent of the young men grabbed Charlie's stick with which to strike Alt partner who ran. Then Charlie, left without his stick, ran aft“ er the two, depending upon the sound oft tho retreating footsteps to guide him. Of course he butted Into everybody S ie, and man/ who did not know that waa sightless, took It as an affront d were about to sail Into him when Mr. Max Harris prevented them. Altogether. It waa a comical sight, the two white men, one running from the other, and the blind negro run ning aimlessly after them, saying that If he could only "see a policeman he would have them arrested." Tho scene finished with somebody finding the negro's stick where It had been dropped on the sidewalk. In Macon, It's a saf eguess to My hi* remark will prove to be nothing but the truth. No opera company ever received the highly bollshcd press notices as are being handed out to tho Manhattan Opera Company. Everything „ a id Jn praise of Mr. Kane's company, not Magatlne. BLIND TIGERS QUITEUNEASY FEARING THAT THE'COURT OF APPEALS WILL DECIDE THE CITY’8 BLIND TIGER OR DINANCE A VALID ONE. Som^of the lawyers of the city aro of the opinion that the blind tiger or dinance of the olty will stand. Asked why they think so, they cay that In some way there Is an Intimation such as lawyers sometimes get with out knowing the-aource. that the court of appeals, before which the case that went up from Macon was argued last week, will declare the ordinance good. This opinion was talked about con siderably yesterday on the comers. To such an extent was It believed that there waa sorrow and gloom In those quarters from which the cases were made. The Idea of. having a heavy fine to pay and the serving out of sen tences on the gang and in the city prison was not a pleasant one to dwell upon. The point on which the attorneys de- K nded most was that the prohibition n covered the ordinance, and that a man could not be punished In the two courts for the asm# offense. It will probably be several days before the decision Is handed down. In the mean time there is much uneasiness. A Healthy Family.
