Mr. 'utter attended Ihe last Richmond (invention and hwoI as 11 star actor in laughable act from life in which 1 bear MM) linen duster won bin ''on ddembie fame as a joker. It was near SistervilU, W.

In one street u wanderiug son of Italy was grinding a hand OtgHU and direct ing the mazy waltzes of a huge oiUiM mou boar, The bear became very much enamored of Mr. I 'utter sduster. Th( color was the same as the ahaggy hair of the bear, and the latter im agined that a long lost brother had beau found. At once, the huve, effoc lionate hearl of the foti'st terror thumped joyfully beneath his tilth rib, and In-made a wild rush for the tiuauapeotiiig engiueeraud thecinna mou colored duatec Proteatationa were in vain, canape was Impoaaible.

Nestled in tha vale of the Chattahoo chee is a village of tomethiog over 200 Inhabitants Of these. 185 are under the ban of th law, and. like the Israelite of old. are making bricks for the mighty piles in the populous cities of the land. from the mountains of West Virginia to "Tampa's desert strand" you may find these bricks, and the finger prints upon them are made by the clasp of the hands of felons. Wearied of the common cussedness of the police station, the Nighthaw k hied him away to this village by the river to spend an hour among the starless stripe of a Oeorgin convict camp. Capt Woodruff, the superintendent, was found, and showed thu visitor through the works There are 105, about 10 per cent, whites, and asnong the number of negroes, twenty-two women. Everything is life and activity. Some are engaged in hauling clay from the clav Held several mile down Ihe river. others are manipulating tho dirt through the two machinal that prepare it for the mill; a deaf and dumb man was shovel ing it into the hopper and several were taking out the brickB. Fifty bricks a minute is the record of one of these. "A TURKISH BATH." "Step in there," said Capt. Woodruft, "and yi can see how it works." The unsuspecting newspaper man sb-ppe.1 inside. Shunt The darkness was palpable. The air was sutfocating. "Wonder if this Is a practical joke," thought the prisoner, as he gasped for breath and reached out his hand in search of something to hold on to. The Bweat broke out on face and hands, and but then the door was raised and the Highthawk scrambled out with feelings of relief Indescribable. "That is what we call a 'Turkish lth.' and we give ihe boys one occasionally," remarked Capt. Woodruff, with a sinjle. Out of these dryers busy hands were trundling bricks to the big kilns. Seventy-two varieties of ornamental ami pressed brick, Is-sides Ihe common grades, are made here, and the beautiful twin Corliss engines go whirling around, ruin or thine, nil the livelong day. The farm attached to the works con sists of ninny acres of river bottom, and here are grown hundreds of bushels of corn, many tons of hay, barrels of sor ghum Blilipand vegetables innumerable. Collards, cabbages, rutubages and white turnips are grown on tlie rich lopes for the maintenance of the con victs. Fat piirs are raised on the refuse and ten hi", udderod milch cow s graze on the meadow. This is the farmer side of the subject, and on farms many of the hands are kepi constantly employed. What gin's w ith the crops? Well, you whs, each and every convict is a man a ith 1111 appetite.

He has been constable, liostiuas ter, town clerk and justice of the peace. He has bis eye now on the legislature. Statecraft is hi hobby, but be Bllng)ai with lumber, agriculture and a general country store. His only recreation ia chasing tbe deer in the SrQdwood and bunting coons. He boa a son Uriah. Uriah is rising 16, and is a -it , .1 ; specimen of tlie true buck wood buy. '"Riah," said Abner Crimes tlie other day, "from the way the weather looks I believe there's a dwr over hack of the mountain. Seems to me as if it was buck, too." "Well, pop," said 'Kiah, "let's take the dog and go fetch the deer in." "Why, thttt'sso!" exclaimed Abner.as If the suggestion was a sudden revelation to him. "We can do that, can't wer" So he took down his gun, call. I the dog, and ho and Uriah started for the mountain, three miles away. 'Riah 1 li ned no gun, it being his duty to handle the dog and drive for deer, while hkt father stood on tbe ridge at a runwuv and put lead in the deer when it cam hounding by him. Rut Uriah had u lag hunting knife in a sheath ut his side. "Slurt a buck, 'Riah, or a big doe," said A liner. "Don't waste time on anv fawns." 'Riah went off with the dog, and be hadn't gone more than a hundred yards when the dog struck a trail and away he went, 'Riah followed, and in less than ten rods came up with tho dog. It might have been a deer track the dog had struck, hut if it w as it had led plump up against a six foot bear, and the six foot bear had his hack against a rock und hii eyes on the dog. The latter, emboldened by the presence of his master, pitched into the hear. The bear welcomed tbe dog to his em brace, gave him a couple of iqueesei and tossed him off witb such vim and precision that his limp and almost des sicated carcass just missed 'Riuh's hea l The dog was extremely deud. "S-a-a-a-yl" said 'Riah, speaking to the bear in a tone of remonstrance. "By Jim! That was pop's best dog, and, 1 tell you, he'll be madder'ii thunderP Just then Aimer's voice, mellowed by distance, but very distinct withal, catm dow n through the woods from the run way up on the ridge. It said: "Hay. Hiahl Come up here with that dog. quick!" "Well." said Riah, still speaking tc the hear, "if he'sccts me to carry that dog up this ridg- he's mistaken! Hut won't be bemadder'n thunder!" All Ibis time the liear stood with bil back to the rock, his eyes snapping, and his jaws dropping foam. 'Riah looked at the Unjoin ted Ixxly of the dog, and then surveyed the proportions of its 1111 terrified un jointer The latter got tired of waiting, ami moved forward to cleai the woods of 'Riah. 'Riah unsheathed his hunting knife and braced himself. "Hay, 'Riah!" came the voice of Abnei down from the ridge again, and this ; lime there was impatience in it. "Why 1 don't you come up with that infernal I dog?" "I hain't got time to explain that to pop just now," said 'Riah, in a oonfiden tial tone to the bear, "and I hain't goin j to scare you by hollcrin' hack at him." The bear didn't seem to care W bethel Riah had time for explanation or not, and evidently was a good way from any intention of being scared, lie reached ; out for 'Riah with one foro paw. 'Riah lunged forward and socked the loi blade of his knife in bruin's neck. Bruin countered on 'Blab's chest and sent him sprawling on the ground. The blond spurted from the hole tht knife had bored in the bear's neck. A; 'Riah fell the voice of the hunter was again heard on the hill. "Hay, 'Riah!" it said. "Why in thun der don't you come up with that dog?" 'Riah was too busy to answer just then, for ho had ail he could do to get to bis feet before tlie bear climbed on him. The boy and the bear had a lively tussle, but it was a short one.

He leaned up against a tree to get his w ind Then he heard his father coming down off of the ridge, crashing through the brush like a wild steer. "He's mad!" panted 'Riah. "Bay, Utah!"
