A Horrible Sight.

Some time since a resident of Grass
Valley had occasion to go to Siskiyou
county, and while travelling over Mt.
Shasta he saw four large California
lions. Not knowing much of their
savage characteristics, he stopped his
horse and gazed d at them. They looked
at him for some time and then turned
and trotted slowly away. He had no
weapons, and had they been hungry
he would not have lived to tell his ex-
perience. When he came to a stop
ping place that night he told of his
adventure, when one of the residents
there told him that one of those lions
short time before had stolen child,
under the following circumstances:
The mother of the child had occasion
to do some washing, and for this pur-
pose had to go into the enclosure that
surrounded the back door. She placed
the child-a girl about Is months old
on the ground and gave it some
playthings to amuse itself with, while
she busted herself with her work, her
back to the child. A few minutes
after this she heard n scream from the
child and turned just in time to see
a full grown California lion leaping
over the fence with the unfortunate
child in it's mouth. The mother
tainted, and no one being near she lay
in this condition for some time. When
she recovered an alarm was raised and
"a pursuit made, but no trace could be
found of the lost child. Our friend
began to tremble in his boots at the
recital, and rather regretted his dar-
ing to "beard the lion i'm his den.n
The lions ale particularly daring and
the settlers are kept in constant fear
Of them.
