lety with regard
to the ill-humor of
of the bear wart
explained by tTte fact that Francesco,
tho gay and fascinating animal
tamer, whs billed to exhibit tin- brim- %
intelligence at.the close of each per
formance;, and Francesco had been
paying considerable attention to
Hidonla of late ? s? much that otto,
the stronK man, once foremost In her
affections, had been relegated almost
entirely to the background.
She Bought her lover at the first Op
portunity und Informed him of her
fears.
"I wish you would take extra pre
cautions when you untur Bruin's
this afternoon," she said. "I never
saw him look so ugly before, and I
fear that he may do you an injury."
"What foolish notion has 'taken
possession of you now?" he playfully
Inquired. "Bruin Is as> gentle as a
kitten and has never been known to
harm nny one."
The audlente was largely composed
of rough miners from the coal fields^
and when the bear cage was run in
they ruBhed from their seats and
swarmed around it.
So densely were they packed that
Francesco experienced considerable
difficulty in forcing his way through
them. Tho crowding of the people
seemed to have a bad effect upon
Bruin's temper, and he growled
viciously when tl\0 trainer entered.
The latter started toward him whip in
hand. At the first step he slipped and
fell to the floor.
The sight of the trainer helpless be
fore him aroused all tho ferocity of
the bear's nature, and with a furious
growl he rushed nt the prostrate man.
A cry of dismay rang from Sidonia's
Hps, In an agony cf grief she turned
to the faithful Otto, whj> was stand-%
iag a few paces away.
"Otto, save him!" she, cried.
"And why should I?" was the flere'e
reply. "He Is my enemy. Had he
not come between us with his treach
ery and deceit you would love me
Still"
"Otto!" she pleaded, sinking to her |
knees while the tears .streamed down |
| her face, "save him for r<vy . sake.
Qn'ck or it will be too late."
Tearing a club from' the hands of
one of the assistants, he plunged info
the crowd like an avalanche. He was
not a moment too soon. Francesco
was down and t'~e bear was tearing
furiously at his shoulder .when ho
flung himself between them.
And now commenced a mighty
struggle over the body of the uncon
scious man. The bear's fury was
doubled at finding himself confronted
by an opponent .who, Instead of dodg
ing and running away, stood up and
^buffeted him with awful blows that
; stunned and blinded him.
At length when he had almost
gained the doer and escape seemed
probable, the trainer recovered his
senses and dragged himself weakly to
his feet. He bestowed p single glance
upon the struggling pair before him;
then he turned and slipping from the
cage slammed the door behind him.
The door was equipped with a spring '
lock and the man who had risked his j
life to save him was a prisoner with '
the bear. u
Sidonia's -shriek rang above the
cries of the people, aiul she was about
to close her eyes to the"ffWTUl spec
tacle, when suddenly a long pole was j
thrust between the bear and his vie- 1
tim; then another and another, -and i
with a gasp of relief she realized that I
the long delayed help had arrived at )
last.
Then the face of Francesco ap- 1
pcared in the crowd in front of her; |
a face that was bloody from the rough
handling of angry men. But she gave ]
no sign of recognition.-- -
Then the face of Otto appeared; i
bloody also, but with wounds received j
in another's defense. Their eyes met t
and in hers was a look that asked for- )
I glveness. His answering look told 1
her that it was granted.
