Thrilli ng Experience of Two Lawyers with
a Bear.
From t ac San Francisco <" -ii.
In the foothills of Sonoma county,
not 1.12.11} liiliCS HOIII 1110 LOW 21 01
Petaluma, there is a neat, cosy country
house, built on a knoli. It is covered
with climbling roses, white, pink and
yellow, carefully trained, and the
i'oilage and blossom is here ?nd there
intertwined with je.ssimino and English
honeysuckle. From a broad portico
in front of the building one obtains
a view that is enchanting. At
the foot of the grassy s'ope that leads
to the dwelling runs a S'lvery stream,
in the pools of which disport the beautiful
and speckled trour. This place,
one of the most pleasant in that section
of the county, is the home of the
Lawlcrs, the parents of Judge Lawler,
of the police court of this city. "Whenever
the Judge seeks relaxation from
official cares,"he takes a run up to that
home to inhale pure country air and
expunge from his lungs the foul dustladen
atmosphere of his court. One
Sfltnvdiv tirur wfpks r>cc hn started
Sonomaward, and on the train.fell in
with one of the legal lights who
>practice in the criminal courts?a gentleman
noted icr the eloquence which
time and again has entranced the occupants
of the buck seats of the policc
courts.
"Judge,"' said Judge Lawler, extending
the hand of friendship to him,
"on your way into the country for a
little outing?"
"Yes, your honor," responded the
party addressed, who, at one time,
hung over the door of a primitive
shanty in Carson, in the early days o:
the Comstock excitement, a shingle,
on which was traced in rude cliarac
iiivj aw ^-.111:^/11 liii; uuui^. v /i&ac*\
of the Justice of the Peace.?}!, Burns
Justice."
"If you have no particular objective
point, and would like to stay ovei
Sunday," said Judac Lawler, "conic
up with me, ard if yoa are fund o
hunting, we'll go up in the hills to
morrow and seek the jack rabbit, th<
cotton-tail, and if we don't happen t(
cite a deer we may run across a bear."
"Judge, you honor me; I was abou
to c'Fcr an excuse, but when you spok<
of the possibility of meeting a bear
then you touch me in a tender spot
and I will avail myself of your kind
ness," said Judge Burns, his rubi
cund facc shining smiles. "Do yoi
know. Judge,"' continued he, "that i
tbTe is anything upon which I prid<
myself it is bear-hunting, I havi
spent hours following the trail of soini
monster bruin in the canyons of th?
Sierra, and Indian-like, have sneekc(
up to him and plunged the cleadl;
bowic into him or sent a bullet from :
mi'nrie rifle or six-shooter crashing
through "his brain. Oh, its gloriou
sport. Just show me, Judge, when
there is a bear trail and I'll "show yoi
some rare sport."
The journey was finished, and brigh

started on their morning peregrinatioi
in ti.e shady wildwoods in the rear o
the Lawler" home, cacii carrying arm
of the most improved pattern.
"There, your honor," said J it tig
Burns, suddenly striking an attitud
and bringing a rifle en jeu, "that's th
position "to strike when you see ;
bear."
"And a? you speak," said Judgi
Lawler, "if I am not mistaken, then
is a bear trail on the road in fi oni^o
us."
"Them's bear prints," said Juclg*
x>urns, wno got clown on ms kitccs t(
examine them. While speaking hi
chanced to raise his head, and ?fb
yard from him, moving" leisurely along
he saw a bear of the cinnamon species
and, without changing his position
uttered in an undertone, "Judge, rui
to cover; the bears coming!"
Judge Lawler crossed the road at:
jump, and never stopped till he reachec
the top of the most convenient pine
On his way up, iiuding that a fowling
piece was an incumbrance in liveb
climbjng, he allowed it to droptotlu
ground. When he had reached :
place of safety and was resting iron

his valiant companion, the great bea:
hunter of the Sierra, and failed to se<
the Judge, but observed on the ground
at the point where he had last seen *h<
irresistible simrod, the rille which th<
Judge had carried. Ciose to the dis
carded weapon was the cinnamoi
monster with the shaggy coat, paciiu
th-o road from one side to the other,
Judge Lawlers lirst thought was thai
the bear had swallowed his companion
but almost simultaneously his fearwere
relieved by the voice of his vanished
companion exclaiming, in frightened
tones:
"For God's sake, Judge, don't move,
or he'll be up the tree after us."
Turning in the direction of the voice.
Judge Lawler saw the nimrod of the
Sierra astride of a branch of an adjacent
oak, which was quivering like an
asDen.
"Why don't you shoot him?" queried
the police judge.
"I can't,*' came the tremulous answer:
"my rifle's in the road, and my
pistol dropped out of my pocket as i
was making lor this branch. I wonder
If he can climb?"'
Just then the bear put his paws
against tiie tree and reared up as il
about to answer the question, and the
nimrod of the Sierra fled up with a
yell to the topmost twig of the oak,
where he hung like a woodpecker.
Several hours were spent in this delightful
fashion, each jurist wildly
hugging his tree, while the bear passed
from one to the other, ever ana anon
making a feint to climb, and once in a
while amusing himself by pawing the
firearms that lay on the ground. At
length, just as the brute took a notion
to move oil' out of sight in the brush,
a farmer was seen coming down the
road, and he was hailed with "Ah,
there," to which came the well known
reply, "stay there."
"That's just what wo don't want to
dcy* remarked Judge Burns.
".Maybe sonic of you fellers haven't
seen a cinnamon bear around here,
have you?" asked the farmer.
"Maybe we have,"' mournfully replied
Judge Burns, "and maybe we
? hi vca't been kept up here lor three
hours by that ferocious brute."
The farmer chuckled and then called
out:
"Here, Jim; here, Jim," whereupon
the bfcar started in his direction the
same -as a pet dog would have done,
and the farmer turned, foliowcd by his
bear, but before going he remarked:
"Gentlemen, that's a pet bear I raised
since a cub, and wouldn't hurt a baby.
I'm much obliged to you for not hav

The two jurists descended from thenplaces
of safety, and registered a solemn
vow to preserve the story a grim
secret all the days of their lives; but
somehow it got out.
How many people stop to consider the
conveniences that are placed at their disposal
free of charge? The water is given
away freely to heated pedestraics, the
bulletin boards of the r.c'?v<pap.-rs give all
the important news in quick time, theSignal
Office displays its ihigs to tell the
r\? fA./'*u' t r>r?ir
mometers are huiuj" outside to give the exact
temperature, barometers may be viewed
by those who doubt the Signal Service
shrns, and there are lots of other things,
small in themselves perhaps, but which,
collectively, i\re of much importance. All
these the people get for nothing. while
twenty years ago >ucu things would have
been decided novelties. Still some people
are not happy.

If you could taRe a'inammoth knife

| the blade across from north to south
at the end of the library, cut off Mrs.
Cleveland's part of the White House
from that of the President. She has
five bed rooms, and they are all large
and airy. Just off from the library
there is a cosy room which used to be
! known as the girls' room, and it was
in this that Nellie Grant lived, and

last Presidential term.
The President's bridal chamber is
the state bed-rooin, and i can tell you
it looks different now to what it did
when Mrs. Cleveland first came into
it. There arc more home touches, and
(he dressing table always has its
flowers. When President Arthur was
here he had his wife's picture, which
hung on one side of these walls,
wreathed wiih roses every morning.
Xow the roses are everywhere in the
room, and the gardener has done his
best to make it look beautiful. There
is a wide lounge, or divan, at one side
of the room, and the bed is of rosewood
with a great canopy of silk
brocade in gold and silver above it. A
. rich Turkish carpet covers the floor

' ; The Care of a I'iano.
. | As several of our corerspondent:
1 have inquired regarding the care o
{: pianos, wc print the following simpli
2 j rules for their care, from the Bostoi
2: Budget: Any hard substance, n<
j! matter how small, dropped inside :
31 piano, will cause a rattling, jarrinj
I: noise. It is. in every case, desirabli
,* that an India rubber or cloth cove
i should protect the instrument fron
r bruises and scratches. The t>ian<
s should not be placed in a damp roon
2 or left open in a draught of cold air
i Dampness is its most dan^erou
enemy, causing- its strings and tunin<
t pipes to rust, the cloth used in con
s struction of the kcvs and action t<
1 swell, whereby the mechanism wil
f move sluggishly or often stick alto
s gether. This occurs chiefly in tin
summer season, and the best piano
o arc necessarily affected by dampness
0 the absortion being rapid. Extretm
2 heat being scarcely less injurious, tin
x 1 piano should not be placed very r.ea
i an open tire or heated stove, nor ove
2 ; or ciose to the hot-air furnace. Moth
2 ! are very destructive to the cloth am
1 j felt used in the piano, :uul may be ken
out of it by placing a lump of campho
2 wrapped in soft paper, in the insid<
j of it, care being taken to renew i
j from time to time. Many persons ar
- unaware of the great importance o
f having their pianos kept in order an<
. tuned onlv bv a competent tuner. A
5 new piano should be tuned at leas
x once every three or four months durin:
the first year and at longer interval
1 afterwards.
While There is I-ife There is Hope.

Knights of Labor Notes.
HOC INGERSOLL ON LABOR.
Robert G. Ingersoll, being interviewed
I on the labor question, said: "The only
benefit of the Knights of Labor to the
workingmau arises from the discussions
that take place. But in this country such
organizations cannot do great good. The
laboring men should redress all their
grievances by the ballet. Let labor organize,
not to boycott, not to strike, but to
vote. His ballot is the weapon to be used."
THE MAINE XXIvJHTS.
: Tiic Knights of Labor in Maine -propose
i to address open letters to the candidates for
State officcs, demanding a. decided answer
to labor questions. They demand that the
candidates pledge themselves to vote for a
-ten-hour law, employers' liability bill, repeal
of the law of imprisonment for debt,
and the abolition of the trustee process.
OTHER ITEMS FOli KNIGHTS.
The Women Knights of Labor in Danville,

Surface Water.
In view of the vast quantity of rain that
| has fallen recently, saturating the ground
with water aud tilling the wells with surface
drainage, mcdical authorities advise that
much sickness may be averted by drawing

The Philadelphia. Record makes some
sensible remarks with regard to overgrown
newspapers. The majority of readers want
winnowed news. They do not like to search
through a page of padding to find a paragraph
of fact. Condensed news and curt
comments thereupon can be taken in along
with the evening repast, and the reader
rises from his table in possession of all the
news of the day. Hand him a sheet full of
long articles and he will not take time to
read more than one of them, if he does
that. This is what makes a paragraphic
paper like The Columbia Record so popular.

failed to arrive, but as the crowd was present

the game. There was a general rush for
the ticket shed, all demanding their money
