A Baby In q Panther's Jaws.
[Yreka (Cal.) Journal.l ]


Last Thursday evening, about dark,
Mr.. and Mrs. George Campbell and Dick
Mannon were sitting on the porch of
the Soda Springs Hotel, at Soda Springs,
on the Sacramento River, while Mr..
Campbell's little boy, aged about three
years, was across the road, about fifty
or sixty feet distant, amusing himself
by cutting bushes with little hatchet,
Those on the porch were startled and
Mortified by observing a panther spring
upon the child, and at the time supposed
he was dangerously injured, which
would have been the case, no doubt.
had not the child screamed, and those
on the porch shouted excitedly, which
prevented the panther making deadly
spring, as he was evidently watching
and fearing the parties on the porch.
As it was, the panther seized the child
by the chin, one of the .tusks of the
upper jaw cutting his lip, and one in
the lower jaw cutting. his neck, while
the paw of the beast struck and scratched
him in the breast. The shouting and
rushing toward the child by those on
the porch caused the panther to make
tracks up the mountain speedily, and
after picking up the child and examin
ing the wounds indicated, Mannon re-
turned to the house, and, following it uT
the mountain, soon dispatched the
panther, hungry, lean looking Gus
toner, measuring five feet from tip II
tip.

with bewit ching grace.
GA thousand thanks" said the young

flowers from her pretty fingers.
CHOW, who the deuce is this fair Flora,
that she should give me button-hole
bouquet" was a question the young
man asked himgelf, as he contemplated
the rosebud, the heliotrope, the geran-
ium leaf and the jasmine spray. "The
rose-that's for love-" mused the young
man as he reluctantly turned to 60
"but blessed if l can tell what the
heliotrope, the geranium and the jas
mine stand for, but Tll find out before
I sleep, if have to ransack every book
in the Public Library"
"Fifteen cents, please" said the
young lady, calling gently after him.
The young man grew white, red and
spotted by turns, handed her dollar
note, and, without waiting for change
rushed out on the sidewalk, and battered
his head forty or fifty times against the
side of the building, while he called
upon all the gods that inhabit the blut
empyrean to look down upon the dog
gondest fool that ever lived since thu
| world began.

Lass0ing the Enemy.

The fact that a number of horses and
mules from the River Platte are being
taken to South Africa for use by the
English forces, has given rise to the
curious suggestion, says an English
paper, that the lasso, to the use of which
they are trained, and which is the means
by which they are captured and broken,
should be used as weapon against the
hostile Zulus, and that corps of
mounted English volunteers from the
River Platte, accustomed, to throwing
the lasso. should be attached to each in
vading column, for the purpose of las
soing the enemy. The proposal would
have more weight if the Zulus were
possessed of cavalry, which they are
not; but it is probable that the use OF
such a novel weapon would create q
great impression, and probably cause a
panic among the unmounted warriors.
