It was the intention of the proprie tors of the Newmarket to turn the bear into food to celebrate the open- Ing of the market. It was on exhibi tion at the market and Mr. Lippincott saw the animal when he passed on his way to the water office yesterday morning.

With bear steak at $1 a pound the Newmarket company men hesitated. Mr. Lippincott continued to plead for the bear's life. Many women and chil dren added their pleas and finally the market men decided to present tin to the park department.
