On Bear Meat But Later, Learn-
Mil tott "Morgan is extremely
fond of-bear meat, i la fact, there
is nothing that appeals to his ap
petite with quite so much force as
does a good fhunk' of roast
bear,, and thereby-hangs a talc
Down in the Centennial meat
market a few evenings, ago hung
an ordinary black calf,' miuus the
head.' .-, Whether the presence of
the head would have made ' any
difference inl this story is ; not at
all certain, but as sfated tbe head
was cut off. Milton Morgan was
in the shop on ..business ' and
'D jc" Jackson presided at the
. block, when " George " Denmari
sauntered in and his eyef .fell on
the beheaded black calf.
'Who sh?t that bear?"; he
queried"! with-apparent serious
ness, and Jackson, seeing Mor
gan lift his head attentively, re
plied in like seriousness, " 'Why,
the boys got 'it down below
town."
By this time Morgan began to
experience a hankering for a bear
roast, and. going- to the. black
calf he examined it carefully and
remarked,' -"Well, denied if that
, aint a bear, sure enough. Give
me a seven-pound roast before it's
all cone." .
"All right Milt," "answered
Jackson, with a strenuous effort
to look business-like ,.' - Three
times' during that - day Morgan
came back and looked; at -the
calt each time smacking his lips
as he went away thinking of bear
roast done to a turn, - with brown
gravy and other, .good, things to
correspond.- 1 '-'
- That evening he" came back,
called for his seven pound roast,
and on' being told Z that. it. was
only ten cents'per pound remark
ed that the price was pretty ldw
for bear, but Tacksoa replied that
that particular breed of .bears
came cheaper. . . '
'Gee but I'll have some fun
out of my mother-in-law about
this." ennned - Morgan as ne
planked down the '"70 cents for
his meat: "She wouldn't let US
cook this in the house if she
knew it was bear, but I'll not
let on 'til she's eaten some of it,"
. he de .-lared as he left the shop
with his package.
The following morning a face
appeared in the doorway,
and with sickly grin the job
printer announced feebly,
caue-htonto that bear meat busi
ness all right when it was cook
ed." -
i And at the butcher shop they
are still wondering how he dis
mvpTed the ioke bv taste when
he could not tell calf from bear
in broad day light, but the gen
eral impression is that his moth
er-in-law enlightened him after
he had "fooled" her.
eomoaiiv shall have been perfect
ed, it is the plan to agitate the
organization of two or more aux
iliary ; : companies," one for the
central part. : of ; town and the
other for the C. & E. depot sec
tion, by which the town would
then have an excellent system of
protection, and be safer from . fire
than it. could possibly be in ; any
other, way. ' .'- "4-"'"
! It is said that in Albany an
effort is ' being made to sell the
fire engines, as better results, are
obtained bv having more plugs
and hose,- instead : of depending
n the engine which has to be
made ready before it can be used
wherebv much . valuable time Is
lost in getting to' the1 fife: ; Chem
ical engines are conceaea to De
the best and most, satisfactory,
and they are coining into general
