Thursday and started for the camp, about fifteen miles distant. The President had been joined at Memphis by President Stuyvesant Fish, of tlie Illinois Central; tleneral Counsel Dickinson, of tlie same road; John M. Parker, of New Orleans, La.; John .MeKlhenny, formerly Lieutenant in tlie Rough Riders; Major <i. M. Holm, IV. w. Mnaguni and II. L. Foote. The latter three are his Mississippi planters atul well-known hear hunters in this eouutry. Mr. Koote is considered one of th?* hest shots in the State. Mr. I'arker has hail charge of the preparations for the limit, ami the President appears to lie greatly pleased with the arrangements. The cauip is torn ted oil the banks of the i.iltle Suntlower Uiver. in a praetlrall.v unbroken wilderness. The oak, aslt and cypress forest is choked with ar nndergrowtli of hud vine, but a trail has been cut. the eamp and horses have been provided for the members of the party. The eamp itself <*ousisis of three sleeping tents and one ooofc tent. Jloke Collier, a negro, who was a scout in the Confederate Army during the Civil War, has charge of the hounds. A inn ag tlicni is the best bear dog in the eountry. the property of Mr. Knote. This is his last bunt. Collier. Mr. I'arKcr said, was credited with having been in at the death of 1 til 10 bears. it would be practically impossible for anyone to reach camp on foot, and arrangements have been made to prevent any erne from obtaining a horse or a mule at Smedos without a permit. In this way the managers of the hunt believe that privacy has been assured. The President has with him the hunt ing outfit used by liiin for many years in his hunting trips after big game in ilio neighborhood of his ranch on the Little Missouri, in Dakota, ami in the mountains of *daho, Montana and Colorado. It includes a fringed buckskin, worn by the old wilderness hunter, and his favorite Winchester 40-1)0. This weapon bears the interesting sears of one of his battles with a mountain lion in Colorado. In closing with a wounded eat. the President thrust the stock into his mouth. It shows the teetli marks of the enraged animal and the place where a small piece was literally bitten away. His cartridge belt has a hunting knife attached. A loan black bear, weighing 23f< pounds, was bung up in President Roosevelt's camp on the Little Sunflower. but the first trophy of the hunt did not fall to the President's vitle. The bear's trail was struck by the hounds soon after the party started, and as soon as the dogs gave tongue the President and his guides plunged through the dense underbrush in pursuit. To save the President needless hard riding through the brush-Holt Collier directed Mr. Foote to take the President along the trail to a certain cutoff, where he thought the hear would come out. Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Foote waiteil for sovpnil hours. Tho trail of the hoar carried the yelping hounds out of hearing, and soon after noon Mr. Foote abandoned hope that the quarry "would come hack their way. and he and the President returned to camp for lunch. Had they remained the President would have had a shot, as the hear, with the dog at its heels, crossed at almost the exact spot which Collier had indicated. About a mile beyond this point tlie hear, exhausted by his long race, ran into a water hole and turned upon the dogs. They were all over him in an instant. The beast was too exhausted to make much of a tight and Mr. Collier jumped from his horse and knocked the game over with a blow on the head from his rille. Then Collier blew his horn, indicating that the quarry had been brought to bay. A messenger was sen4 back for the President, and Collier roped the bear and tied him to a tree. When the President arrived he would neither shoot it nor permit it to be shot. "Put it out of Its misery," said Mr. "Roosevelt to Mr. Parker, and tlie latter ended its life with ills kj'ifc. ?>n tne way back to camp the clops struck u fresh trail, mul the President, Mr. Foote, Mr. Mnnguni.

Tin* trouble at the Andrew Jackson School has brought about an epidemic of so-called strikes among schoolchildren. In tlie morning some pupils of tlie Wnslilmrne School refused to go to their classes. One reason assigned by the punils is that their teacher. Mrs. Itntli Parsons, occasionally conies to school late.
