TOE MORNING ASTORIAN, ASTOKIA, OREGON. THURSDAY, JUNE ij, 1903. Zeb White's i Bear Story taw 014 rtwov Hunter of Tennessee I Till How Master Bruin Waa HweUd site! Ceav ' anirled Suklds. tOME folki took upon all b'art alike, same as hasrgs and 'r calves," Mid the old possum banter of Tennessee at we t smoking one evenlnft. "but tbat'i Wkar they are mistaken. Thar are Vara and b'ars, same as tbar are men and men. One b'ar may bare a proper pride about him, and another may have one at all." Being aaked If he had ever seen one wtth "proper pride," he thought for a and then answered: snoray cave, ana ill tell yon It A feller down at G rover's miss uy or tue mn. iiie row weni on fur fifteen mlnlta, anl then the b'ai was all tuckered out and dlscouragiM He'd got holt of aunthlu' to bent htm and he had to own up to It hlsself. " Can't he aoe that he hain't Btten? aaka the old woman as bo begun to bark off. " 'lie kin." say I, 'but he'a aot In his ways and hates to give In. He'a all chawed to pieces by Uiem barba, but he'll sborely try It ajt'ln. "And he did. Five mlnlta later he made rush fur thnt fence nad begun t hug and bite and wmetle. and he waa so powerful mad this time that he pushed down three or four rods of It. It wasn't no use. however. He waa a licked b'ar, and the mo he hugged and bit the mo he k no wed ha was linked. Blmoby he Jest lay still and whined and whimpered, and It appeared to us that tbar was teura tu his eye. Wheu he got sorter rested be sot up and looked at ua, but It wasn't a sonar look, not aleh an honest look aa a b'ar orter girt a man on his own land. He peered to be thlnkln fur a mlnlt, and then be limps over to that chestnut tree and begins to climb up. He waa mighty slow about It hut.blmehy he got up to that big limb, and arter a sorter farewell loolTaround be lets go I and falls kerchunk to the alrth. He lit on the griudatun', which waa stand in' under the tree, and busted it all to flinders.' "And then be made off, of course?" waa suggested. -No, sah, he didn't That b'ar had I an objick when be climbed that tree. His objtck was to kill hlsself bekase he'd bin whopped. He Jest cum down bead fust on purpose to break his neck, and be dun it Yes, sah; killed as dead aa a doahnall right thar befo' our eyes. He had tackled a barbed wire fence and bin licked, and he couldn't abide to live on. We counted up the hurts on him and found over 200. I hare alius felt a bit sorry fur that Tar mint He'd bin aloshln' around In the breeh all his life, llcktn' everything he ram across, and how was he to know a wire fence from a pumpkin vine! " r,: V. 1 Harm' got mad about it he was r?'. jr; ; : r . I bound to t TALK IT OVER. "X TOU) TOO X SKXLT t'jJL" was owln' me 7 and couldn't I - I. I I S . ft. - - - ' ":v A . bound to be whopped.

One erenln', three or four weeks later, I was out yere smokln' X when the old woman comes ant and whispers Zeb White, have yo.' got a nose on Jo or nave yo' dun lost ltr "'Reckon I've got a nose,' says I, and what of ltr -men don't yo smell a far aroondl ...... a smell of b'ar, and I tnow Lr tney smell.' - Then yo've lost yo'r grip and better saint rabbits.

Is the rifle loaded T -No.' "then we don't git no b'ar, fur If joTgo to more he'll turn tail. Zeb, yo ain't no mo of a hunter than our ole tart.' The b'ar stood thar and looked at as for a minlt," said Zeb, "and then hat wire fence caught his eye. He ladzrl never seen barbed wire befo', and party soon be walks up and gives a hit with his paw. He got a Jab from a barb, and It made him mad What does he do then but give that fence a I ag, and it was the funniest sight yo ever seen. The harder be hugged the asw be hurt hlsself, of co'se, but It wss a good while befo be would let go. He growled with madness and whim pered with pain, and me and the old woman fefl to laughln' fit to kill It was tea mlnlta befo that b'ar would give apt He bit snd clawed and bugged. sad when be finally let go he waa all vex blood. "'Reckon he'll make off now, says fbeett woman as he sot up on end and growled with madness, "But he didn't. He felt he'd been worsted, and he wanted to git even, Thar was a heap of loose wire on the ground, and blmeby he goes fur It and was aO tangled up and fightlrj' fur his Ife In a minlt. I never hard slch growlin' In all my life, and when he aU at that wire It made the cold chills tub p our backs. I could have got the a? and loajjed. ltJSut I didn't want to Then you think he had feellngsr was asked. Most sartlnly he had, aah. Feel- In's? Why, a b'ar la chuck full of feel in's, and I're alius felt ashamed that this one didn't have a aquar deal. He might have tackled a landslide and cum out on top, but what show did he have agin 500 feet of barbed wire fern's which was acbln' fur a row with an elephantT" And you really believe he committed suicide on account of being bumlliat ed? "Of co'se I do. That's whar people aon i nnaerstand tnings. They argy that nobody but human beln's have pride, whereat b'ars and alch bave their proper anow or it. I once tackled a bull and got whopped like all outdoaba, and fur a week arterwards I felt like hangin' myself. That b'ar had alius got away with everything that cum along till he struck that wire, and It not only hurt his body, but his feelln's. He couldn't go back among other b'ars and brag and awell around, and he Jest made up his mind to git off the alrth. He ahorely did, sab, and I'm a-thlnkln' a heap mo' of blm fur doin' that same. Of co'se It was suicide of co'se." VI. QUAD. With Peopls You Know. With Astoria People.
