Nosier, of there were many bears and cougars in the woods, he borrowed a .33 EDgene, arrived in town Friday and Savage rifle before starting on bis and is enjoying a visit with old-time trip. friends and acquaintances. THODQHT HE SAW A COUGAR. After having gone some 300 yards from the camp Wren heard the brush cracking, as if some ani mal were prowling in the vicinity. He listened for a time, but th6 noise ceased. A few minutes later the cracking of the brush was continued, and Wren, firmly believing that a cougar or a bear was prowling near by, waited an opportunity to shoot. As he stood on a etump he observ- eh wbat seemed to him to be the dead of a cougar. It was some 50 feet or moro away. Wren, who is an excellent shot, raised his rifle and fired. The head disappeared. He was certain the bullet had found the mark, but waited for a short time before making an investigation. Then, when all remained quiet, he concluded that be had killed a cou gar and proceeded to the spot where the head bad disappeared, T o bis horror he found the body of Mrs. La Casse lying on the ground, with a gaping hole in the back of her head. YOUNG MAN ALMOST FRANTIC. The discovery of his terrible error drove the young man almost frantic and weeping bitterly, he hastened to the camp for assistance. Louis La Casse, husband of the unfortun ate woman, nnd other men rushed to the spot, but Mrs. La Casse was beyond human aid. The soit-nosed bullet had plowed its way through the back of the head, and the woman never knew what struck her. Death had been instantaneous. At once the authorities here were notified, but it was 1 o ’clock this morning before the corpse was brought to the city. Wren was taken into cus tody pending the investigation but was discharged today, as it was clearly a case of accidental shooting. Tne body was taken to Bowes A Itnndolph’s undertaking parlors and there prepared for burial. THE HUSBAND’S STATEMENT.

He said: * “ I am positive the shooting was accidental, and, despite the shock which the unexpected loss of my wife has caused me, I can readily understand how young Wren might have mistaken the top of her head for the head of an animal. Wren had beeu at the camp for only a few months, but he is n very pleasant young fellow nnd everyone liked him. Our relations were most agreeable. To havo charged him with criminal negligence would have been entirely uncalled for, and I am pleased to know that he is not be ing prosecuted. “ Mrs. La Casse was dreadfully afraid of guns, and whenever a gun was left around the camp she insist ed upon my putting it out of sight Hhe went into the woods yesterday aftsrnoon to pick berries, the sup Teacher«’ Examination. ply at this time of the year being good, and failed to take a hat.
