"There are many highly" dramatic scenes in which Miss La Marr and Tearle perhaps present the best acting of their screen careers. It will be shown for the last time to- day.

Melville Drew, reeve of Olden, informed the" Whig en Thursday morning that a man named Charles Walker, who resides about ten miles from Sharbot Lake, got a very lively chase by a female bear about a week ago. According to the story, Mp. | Walker, who was walking in the woods, was surprised to see three cub bears on the path a short dist- ance away. Two of the béars ran for parts unknown, while the third ome went up a tree. Mr. Walker got close enough to fire a shot at.the young bear up the tree. It is*thought that one of the charges from the guns cane in contact with the bear as ft appeared to fall. When Mr. Walker got up to the point where the young bear appeared to fall, there was no sign of the animal. While looking for thé animal he got the_surprise of his life when the mother bear came from behind the bush and chased Mr. Walker for a short distgnce. CANADIAN FEEEMAN SCHOLAR- .

Dr. Duncan, one of the house sur- geons, and Isaac Plunkett, the por ter, were dewn in the store room for the purpose of getting some aleohol., For years it has been the custom of the institution to distribute the alco- #ol which is used for rubbing pur- poses, between 5 and 7 o'clock. The alcohol is kept fn a large barrel, snd it has been thé practice of the authorities to fill the bottles from the barrel. The two men were in the act of filling one of the bottles when, burst 'of flame. Dr. Duncan received a few bufns about the ankles. It is ufiderstood that the alcohol barrel was leaking, and thdre was a small portion of the fluid on the tioor. The two men claim that while théy were filling the bottles, they Heard some pérson call them, but they are un#ble to say who the man was, as he was some dstance away. It is thought that some person who was passing the door of the phar- macy store room; might have drop- ped a match which caused the fire. Did Good Work. A great deal of credit is dué to one of the cleaners and an orderly, who were just completing their work for the day, and happened to be ih the basement of the building. When they noticed the blaze, they ram for the reel of hose which was a short distance away and in quick order they had a stream of water pouring on the fire. There was a reel of hose and a hydrant located near the -en- trance of the pharmacy store room, but the flames which were coming out of the ddor made it impossible to turn on the water. The ward patients are loud in their praise of the wonderful work which was carried on by the nur- ses, who were doing duty in the wards at the time. As soon as the fire alarm was sounded, the nursés quickly realized the danger they were up against, and when orders were given, carried the patients to other parts of the buflding. _ Miss Mabel Baillie, superintendent of nurses, stated to the Whig that the work which the nurses did was simply wonderful. When it was found that there was danger of the patients in thé Em- pire wing being affected by sthoke, blankets were sécured and pinned up at the entrances. In the new Empire wing there are fire doors, which were closed. There are also fire doors which separate the main building of the hospital from the Watkins wing on the third floor in which is located the quarters for sick children. 7 Cheque for Firemen On Thursday morning Fire Chief Armstrong received a letter from H. C. Nickle, ¢hiirman of the board of governors of the General Hospital, enclosing a cheque, "ds evidence of appreciation of the prompt and effi- cient services rendered by the de- partment." > Mr. Nickle thanked the members of the department for their good work, andl stated that it was grati- tying to hear Chief Armstrong's éom- plimentary remarks, re the discip- line in the institution, and the rap- idity with which the patients were moved to quarters of safety.
