Smedes," Miss.?President "Roosevelt
and his party arrived here at 3.40 j\
m. 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.

teachers and Board of Kducntion nieinliers
are now at outs in earnest over
the school "strike." Conditions have
reached a crisis as a result of the action
of the Board of Education in conft
ruling the suspension of Miss Jane
McKeon, of the Andrew J a ok so* i
School. A revival of the trouble at
that institution took place the following
morning, and simultaneous with
it cntue a strike" at four other
schools.
Parents living in the neighborhood
of the Andrew Jackson. School are in
sympathy with the children and uphold
their demands. Alderman .Tolin
Powers and other persons said to be
in command of "influence" will lie
again appealed in to make .n attempt
to right the wrong that, it is assorted,
lias been done.
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. In tlie Tllden and (larfleM
schools the youngsters declare that
they have lieen deprived of their "inalienable
rights" to have recesses nt

In the court-room when the trial of

District Attorney Osborne returned
his speech in behalf of the

he made a strong attack on Molineux,

tides regarded his charge as impartial
md both sides were satislied with it.
1'ho Jury was given the ease after
the Judge had talked two hours.
dust ten minutes after the jury had
retired there was a loud, sharp rap on
the Inside of the jury's door. A bailiff
jpened the door and a man inside
whispered to liitn. The bailiff turned
(round, amazement on Itis face.
"They have reached a verdict." he
iai.1.
.Justice l.nmltort took his place on the

There was a short wait and at
Molineux walked Into the court-room
Ind took a scat beside bis white-baired
'ather. The prisoner's face was drawn
ind Ids checks sunken: the corners of
his mouth were turned down, and
there was a linn look about his face.
There was absolute silence for a
few seconds after the jurors had taken
their seats. Then Justice I.atnhert
looked nt the large audience In the
tourt-toom and admonished the people
to keep perfee! order unou the anlounceir.em
of the verdict.
Molineux arose quickly and fared t'.ie
lur.v. The moment he had been Ion-rug
for for four years was at hand,
fie believed his rising was a prelimnary
to bis triumph. His head was
leld high and his hands v."ere clenched
iervousJy. His lin.s were closed lightly
and his muscles were rigid.
"Have you readied a verdictV" asked
:l:e dork of the jury.
"We have," said the foreman, Mr.

"What is your verdict?"'
"Not guilty."
Molineux dropped, almost prostrated,
nto his chair. Iiis old father, with
tears of joy on his cheeks, seized the
freed man's nands in his. and Roland's
brother Leslie also grasped his hands.
Then Molineux ."hook hands "with his
lawyers. Mr. Black and the others.
The jury had taken only one ballot,
ind all voted for acquittal.
Mr. Osborne, the Prosecutor, who has
been working on the case for nearly
four years, looked stunned, and a feeing
of relief that It was all over was
ipparent in his manner. Several of
the jurors shook hands with Osborne.
When the verdict was rendered there
was a hum of approval in the courtroom.
At that instant a boy outside
lie Court building shouted: "Molinerx

n the street, and an Immense crowd
ushed to the stops of the Court House,
but were driven hack by policemen,
l'lie bailiff who bad guarded Molineux
ill through tlie trial left the young
man's side.
Molineux realized that lie was free,
fie walked bnelc over the Itrhlge of
Sighs to the Tombs, and parked up bis
?lothing and books, ..ml before f?

with joy and relief. (Jcueral Molineux

triumphal march. Women ami men
lined the streets and waved handkerchiefs
and cheered, and many rushed
to the carriage and tried to shake
Roland's hand. lie took off his hat
several times and bowed to the people.
Two thousand persons filled the quiet
Brooklyn street in front of the MolIneux
home when tin* carriage stopped.
A loud cheer was given, the front door
af the home opened and Mrs. Molineux.
tlie mother, appeared, ltoland rushed
up the steps, and his mother threw her
arms around him. Again the crowd
cheered, the mother drew him into
the hallway, the others followed and
the door was closed.
Mrs. Roland Molineux, the wife, was
not at the Brooklyn house to welcome
her husband. She heard the news in
an uptown hotel, where she has been
living for some time. When told what

"This statement should be so interpreted
as to apply, in the basis of
