GOI THE BEAR reported in one locality and when the hunters got through making a thorough canvass of the field, bruin would be reported having been seen in another place. But E. P . Horsley came the nearest of any of the hunters to getting the scalp of the second bear. The time was early Sunday morning, and the place was neighbor Iversen's corn patch. In the middle of the night, Mrs. Horsley awakened her husband with the alarm that the much sought bear was evidently enjoying life out in their neighbors corn patch, as she could hear something moving about out there. Mr. Horsley, fired with an ambition to fight a real bear and collect the bounty on his ears, hastily prepared for tho fray, and after getting outside the house, could plainly see the animal munching away at the corn as though it owned the earth and all the corn in Iowa. Gathering up a few, pebbles (a size larger than the one David used on Goliath) Mr. Horsley took careful aim and let her go. There was a dull thud and a slight movement in the corn patch. Another pebble was shied at the animal, but the bear refused to die. Its color seemed to change somewhat too, so Mr. Horsley rubbed his eyes good and hard, then peered through the corn stalks when lo, and behold! The bear had changed into a burro (in other words. Jackass) the same which claims connection with Studebaker Bros., of this city, and it was just having a light lunch between naps in order to keep from getting lonesome. went back to bed, resolved never to wake up again if all the bears in Africa should surround his neighbor's corn patch and eat everv ear of corn thereon. sessions were very interesting instructive however.

For a confirmation of the report, one of the local proprietors of shooting grounds out on Bear River Bay, asked was communicated with and what he knew about the reported) wholesale dying of the ducks, and be stated that he was under the impression that the reports were overstated. The ducks die every year so that is no uncommon occurrence, and he did not believe that they were dying more tliis year than other years. The gentleman stated further that there was a greater percentage of eggs hatched this season than for many years on account of the dry weather, and there are ducks hv the millions out in the waters of Bear River Bay and its feeders.

One of the biggest problems our, city has to wrestle with when we have large crowds come to visit us. is that of eating. We have fruit in abiind- but the thousands who come on Day, who do not have friends or relatives to go to, cant exist for a day on nothing but fruit. Give them all of that kind of food they want, but provide something a little more substantial to fill in the bottom of their stomachs for the fruit to rest upon. The question of "making it pay should not be too seriously considered by those contemplating running a lunch stand. Kvon if a dollar isn't made, just so expenses are cleared, should be sufficient inducement. We cannot hope to boost our city and our matchless products without work, and when we invite thousands of people to come and visit us, it is a houtiden duty of tho community to see to it that the multitude Is fed. The restaurants and hotels will provide a big extra supply of food stuffs for the day, but there should be numberless lunch or sandwich counters scattered about the streets, where the hungry can go and he refreshed. Provide the very best of food and then put the foot of determination squarely on the neck of the spirit of graft, thus making those who come to see us feel that we are glad to see them and want them to come again. On occasions of this kind, where the community's reputation Is at stake, selfishness must be relegated to the back woods, and everybody must stretch forth the hand of good fellowship and make the visitors welcome. There is no better way to get the sympathies of strangers than to fill their stomachs with something good to ent at the right price. Lets do it. .Mgr. A. W.

There seems to be a band of thieves or burglars abroad In this community, and judging from thoir activities, they are not overlooking an opportunity to make a haul .whenever and wherever It Is possible. Mr. During the summer months, Fred Kliason and family, having been living on their ranch out In Pocatello Valley, but they returned borne last week for the winter. They found the front door unlocked, but were unable t unlock the back door, from whence entrance was attempted. Mr. Eliason pryed a window open and clambered through to find' the rooms all up1 set with clothing scattered about and the furniture all topsy-turvHe found and old' key on the door lock on the inside, which accounted for his Inability to' unlock the door from- the outside. The family made a careful examine tlon of their belongings to determine just how much property had been taken, and they can only miss a shirt, hat, ladys bracelet and some other trinkets from the dresser. , The thieves had evidently made their egress through the front door which they left unlocked'. There are other homes in this city which have been entered by burglars and' from the frequency of these experiences, It would seem that there Is an organization of some kind operating In the city, which has for its purpose to rob people of their property.
