months, llecause of hia sickness he had
little opportunity to gather information
concerning the Islands, but says that
while be would not care to live there,
yet the time ia at hand for the inaugura
tion of a system of civilization among
the native. The islands, Hollie says,
are rich in natural resources and can lie
made a valuable adjunct to the commer

It will be remembered that a few years
go Mr. O. D. Garrison' little 6-year-old
boy succeeded in killing a deer, and now
cornea the news that a 200-pound bear
was killed on the 14th of this month by
his 13-year-old daughter, Mabel. Mr.
Garrison lives on Bcappooee creek, and
tliere being a good many bear there, and
he having killed quite a number this
spring, it had created in the mind of the
little girl an ambition to kill one herself.
On the 14th Mr. Garrison and family,
accompanied by Ed Gore and Paul Bon
ner, loft for a little hunting excursion to
Buld mountain, and it was agreed that
if a bear was sighted Mabel woe to have
the first chance at hia life. A luck

he waa told to take good aim. At the
first shot old bruin fall over dead with

The new registration law will mater
ially change the manner of holding elec
tion. It will increase the duties of
county clerk and be of considerable ex
pense to the several counties. County
clerks must have made suitable register
books. Between January 1, 1900, and
May 18, 1000, every voter whoexpec.tsto
vote must either go to the county clerk's
office and be registered or go before some
justice of the peace or notary and regis
ter, and have such officer send iii liis
registration to the county clerk. On
election day the judges have a precinct
register Into which the county clerk ha
copied the name of every elector in that
product. When a man goes to vote the
election judgo looks at the register tOBoe
if the would-be voter has been registered.
After the election the precinct register
go back to the county sent with the re
turns. There is a general register of the
whole county In each dork's office. No
taries and others authorized to register
voters will got 10 cents each for registra
tion of voters outside of the connty seats.
