Geneva.—A Bernese has had an unpleas- ant experience which he is Iikely to re- member all his life. While returning home late in the night the worse for drink, he fell into the bear's pit at Berne. Fortunately, he was in the part reserved for young bears, and he went to sleep surrounded by the animals. On discovering his plight next morning he shouted for help, and with the aid of ropes and a ladder he was drawn up into the street, apparently none the worsg for the adventure. His sleep might have been of a longer duration if he had fallen a few yards to the left, where the full-grown animals are confined.—London Daily Chronicle. —————— The Roman soldier was fed on coarse brown bread and sour wine.

MANAGER AND TWO OF THE SCORERS OF THE WHIST TOURNA- MENT THAT WILL BE GIVEN FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE CATH- oaY FICILITIES IRE INADEQUATE Expressmen Claim That Freight Is Delayed at a Depot. PSSR SR Oakland Office San Francisco Call, | 1118 Broagway, Nov. 3. Owing to the ever increasing volume of Eastern freight which is being shipped to this city, the facilities for handling freight at Sixteenth street depot are be- coming absolutely inadequate, and the Express and Dray Men's Assoclation has appealed to the Board of Trade request- ing that body to take some action that will result in the betterment of existing conditions. Following is the communication: Oskland Board of Trade, Edwin Stearns, Secretary, 522 Twelfth streét, Oakland—Dear Sir: The Express and Dray Men's Association wish to call your honorable body's attention to the present conditions existing at the Six- teenth-treet depot. Many of the merchants have been complaining to the express and dray men of the delay in receiving Fastern freight. The accommadations at Sixteenth- street depot for the hanfling of freight are not commensurate with the volume of business to be handled. Carload lots have lain for thirty days on sidetrack; the trackage is limited and alfogether inadequate for the accommodation of the freight to be handled. Two hours’ time is consumed each morning and one hour each afternoon ewitching, Said time is a loss to the draymen, as no work can be done while cars are being switched. Cars with Eastern freight enclosed have lain three weeks on side- track, causing loss of -thirty-day dating for cash to merchants, which causes considerable complaint to draymen, who are powerless to remedy the same. We think if this matter was brought to the attention of Mr. Palmer of the Southern Pacific Company by your hon- orable body we certainly belleve the matter would receive prompt attention. -Any action you may see fit to take to better the condi- tions above mentioned, thereby benefiting the merchants, will be greatly appreciated. Trust- ing you will give the matter your earliest at- tention, we beg to remain yours very respect- % AND DRAY MEN'S ASSOCIA- i EXPRESS TION. * G PARRISH, President. 8, A. WILLIARD, Secretary.

James McKeon began suit to-day for $5000 damages against Joseph L. Board- man, the aged capitalist, for lifting up a cottage occupied by the plaintiff and tak- ing him around a corner and leaving him elght feet up in the alr. McKeon is a cripple and is dependent upon a tricycle to wheel himself about, and he states that without any intimation as to what was about to happen to him he and all his belongings were moved and to get out of his house he is compelled to go down a ladder. The house in question was originally located at 727 Eighth street and it now looks out upon Brush street. McKeon says that he is unable to get out of his house without great difficulty. He sends neighbors to a nearby grocery for his provisions and draws them up with a string jnto his elevated domlcile, a la Robinfon Crusoe. He further states that the water pipes have all been cut and that the connections with the sewer lead to nowhere. The house movers, he says, have been negligent in closing up the cracks and the house is subject to cold draughts, threatening his health. e A s R T T Death of Wealthy Cattleman.
