SAW A BEAR.
While at the spring about 200
yards from Dr. Garver’s resi
dence in Cotter Heights, saysj
the Courier, Jesse Garver and
Johnnie Seawell saw a cub bear
and tried to catch it, but failed.
There is a cave near the spring
and the probability is that the j
mother-bear is inhabiting it and
would have made it interesting
for the boys had they caught the
cub. Here is a chance for those
sportsmen who are in the habit
of going to the Sylamore moun
tains in search of bear to distin
guish themselves at home.

No worn out faded street parade to entice the weary traveler
to see a third-class performance. The Busby Brothers employ over
Fifty First-class Performers
From all the leading Circuses and Hippodrome throughout Europe
and America. The Busby Brothers’ motto is to give a first-class
performance instead of all in the parade and nothing to show.
Wonderful male and female Gymnasts, great male and female
Acrobats, five Funny Old Clowns, to make the children laugh. The
largest troupe of Performing Dogs, Goats and Monkeys.
This is the leading show of the world. Ladies and children
can attend unaccompanied; polite ushers will attend to their wants.
Remember the day and date—Afternoon and Night, Monday,
June 27th. Lookout for the Monster Band.
