OF BANDON BAFFLED THE BEAR Exciting Domestic Event In the Early Days of Vermont. TALE OF AN ALL NIGHT SIEGE. An Ugly Visitor That Gave Herself a Warm Reception In a Settler's Cabin, a Quick Retreat by the Inmates and a Display of Presence of Mind. Two of the flint English settlers In the town of Addison, Vt, were John Strong and Zudok Kvcre.sk Early in the full of 1770 Strong nnd Everest hud to go to Albany for provisions. Pioneer women seldom worried, but for some reason Molly Strong felt un easy after her husband had gone. She and her sons git In n good Biipply of fuel nnd did tint chores curly. When they cum6.back to the cabin the baby wns crying for his supper, and Mrs. Strong gave him a cup of worm milk nnd snt him down In front of the flrcplnce. She hnd Just swung the kettle of snmp from the Are when she heard a noise. Looking round, she saw the blanket thnt served for n door swing aside as u grout hour thrust her hend into tho room. The children Bcrciitned, and the bear backed out In hnste, but Molly Strong know that she would return. "Quick, children!" she said ns she cnught up the baby. "Climb the Ind dcr. Let sister go up first, now John nie, now Frank hurry, hurry!" When the other were safe In the loft Mrs. Strong climbed up with the baby una drew the ladder after her. She Inld It across the hole, nud then she nnd tlie children not down nnd waited. xne noor of tho loft wns made of round poles laid closely together, but not fastened. It was dangerous to move nbout on it.

Mrs. Strong gave hurried onto 'Get mo n pole. Frank, quick! Now, get nnother. Punch her if she tries to climb up. Flo cnreful. Don't full through." Tho baby, nwnkened by the noise, be gan to wall, nnd Mrs. Strong soothed him with ono hnnd while with tho polo in tho other she warded off tho bear. The little girl clung crying to her mother's skirts, but tho boys each hnd a long pole nnd prodded the lxnr through tho rungs of the lndder. Tho big brute finally Hhutlled off toward tho door. Sho pulled down the blanket nnd tore It Into shreds; then she went out, followed by her cubs. Sho's gone!" Johnnlo said. "Do you think she'll come back, mother?" "'I expect sho will, son, but wo can manngo her If we keep nwnko." "I won't go to Bleepl" gronned John nle. "I'm too hungry!" Nevertheless, tho silent wnlt In the dimly lighted loft made them nil drowsy, and before the bear returned Mrs. Strong knew by their heavy nreaunng tnnt the children were asleep.
