KILLED A PANTHER.
One of the California Species
Slain by Merry Huntsman.

One of the California Species
Slain by Merry Huntsman.
Visalia tCal.) Delta.
j. A. Lafever, of this city, returned
last Saturday from his ranch on Lafever
creek, tributary to Kings river, in the
mountains. He stated that a panther.
more commonly known as a California
lion, had visited his ranch at night and
killed two valuable colts. Robert Lewis
and two young men by the name of
Akers, all residents of that part of the
country. determined to camp on the
trail of the lion. and, with that object in
view, they shouldered their guns and
went on a hunt. determined to shoot
everlasting daylight through the most
savage beast that infestS the mountain
businesses of the Sierra.
Their opportunity came, and they
were equal to the emergency. On Sun
day, the 10th, they discovered the lair
of the panther. 1t was trying mo-
ment for the boys. The lion, with
flashing, angry eyes. and with tail lash
ing the air into invisible foam, crouched
down and prepared to spring on his in
truders. just as the animal left the
way through the lions eye, and the
beast fell stone dead. If the thot had
been less unerring the chances are that
this story would have been written diff
ferently. However, it was all exceed
ingly close call for the intrepid hunters.
Mr.. Lewis proved himself an expert
shot at a moment when the slightest
evidence of nervousness would have
been unfortunate for him. The skin of
the lion will be preserved and utilized
as rug, and no doubt in after years
will be the means of recalling thrill
ing and critical moment in Mr.. Lewis
life, for the beast made a spring for Mr..
Lewis and struck against him, falling
dead at his feet. His clothes were
stained with the panther's blood.

ALonely Spot.
The spot where the body was done to
death IS an uncanny thicket set in the
midst of swamps. 1t is desolate ana
fearful in its isolation. When the body
was found it was lying beside rotten
tree and stump. and the'legs were partly
crossed. while The trunk itself half
rested and half hung over the stump.
The head was bent backwards against
the spine and the eyes were closed. and
so was the mouth. The right hand and
arm had been frozen into posi-
ton of defiance, while the left hung
limp, and the flesh was blue from eX-
posture to the cold. His macintosh
was still upon him. but IL had been
ripped open and torn away from the
neck, as il the murderer had caught
hold of the collar in trying to get the
body further away from the road. The
place was soon aroused. and the local
Justice of the peace, constable, lawyer
and the machinery of the law tried to
get at the bottom of the case, but could
not. A coroner's jury, hastily sum-
moned, found one of those indefinite
verdictS so well known, and the remains
of the murdered man were buried.
They.all knew 1t was murder, for the
deranged and torn clothing and the
CHASTITY wounds betokened a struggle,
and this case was put down as another
OF those mysteries and all too common
mysterious disappearances. A few
days afterwards young man drove to
the little hamlet, said he thought the
d&ad man was his friend, the body was
eXhslIed and identified as f. q. BEN
well, and the man who identified him
was j, Rex Birchall.

COOL TOM PATTERSON.
The Record of a Man Nothing
Could Scare.

Could Scare.
Chicago Tribune.
A half-doZen story tellers were at
a Washington street rendezvous last
night, and one of them related this:
1.-The coolest man | ever saw was
Tom Patterson, young travelling man
who used to go out of Chicago. Tom
had way of celebrating his return to
the city in manner that made him
favorite with a certain class of boys
about town. The only trouble with him
was that when he fell under the table it
was good-by to Tom. He never moved
until the next day.
FINALLY his best friends undertook to
reform him. Persuasion was of not
much effect. and they concluded to try
another scheme. One night, when Tom
was grooming under his cargo, the boys
toted him to the old morgue, which was
then over on Third avenue, where there
is now a sky-scraper. That morgue was
always open. Tom was laid on slab
between two unknOwns. ltwas a CHASTITY
sort of joke. The boys fingered about
to await results. After while Tom re-
turned to consciousness and struck a
light. He was great smoker. He held
up the match so as to see where he was,
and, of course, he saw.
Then he lighted cigar, sat there
and smoked. after which he resumed
his recumbent position on the slab. The
boys then called him, but he informed
them that he didn't want to be dis
turbed. Of course. we had to get him
out, but he wouldn't come until he got
ready. Once we threatened him, but
he replied that if we used any force he
would raise an alarm and have us run
In on The charge of proving around a
mOrgue for the purpose of stealing dead
bodies. And he was as cool as sudden
cold wave"

Worlds Fair Commissioners and

heads.
CHICAGO, Nov. IA. - With the APP
preach of the next meeting of the
worlds fair commission, rumors of
trouble ahead are rife. In the first
place, Director-General Davis feels ig-
nored by the local directory. 1t was his
understanding that he should have the
appointment of his Sub-chiefs; but the
directory has already appointed two of
them without consulting him. When
seen about the matter, Mr.. Davis said:
II do not care to talk much about this af-
fair. 1t is matter of record that at the
time of the appointment of MIR. Burnham as
chief of construction filed a protest. The
national commissioners are here now to set
tie up these little differences, and suppose
they will. certainly will not stand the
action of the directory"
will the resignation Of these gentlemen
be demanded?"
Il have filed my protest, and do not care to
further talk about it.''
Assistant Secretary Willets. of the
agricultural department and chairman
OF the board of government exhibits,
accompanied by Prof. Atwood, of the
government board, have been called to
consultation which will take place OH

commissioners generally when he said
that the restrictions thrown around

GUS matters of detail were discussed.
Two members of the committee eX-
pressed themselves as willing to take
up the matter Of the location of build
ings, and Ito break down the schemes
OF placing too many buildings upon the
lake front" The national grounds and
buildings committee met the members
of the local building committee this
afternoon. MeSSrS, Martindale, Smith,
Kerens and Goodell asserted that the
commission would insist that there be
no more than two buildings erected

Prisoners Said to Have Possessed

+ Bars.
Atlanta Constitution.
3 A bold jail delivery occurred here this
morning about Q o'clock. In cell i'm
sthe Bibb county Jail were confined j..
w. Hart and j. B. Boyles. charged with
burglarizing the safe of Baum Brothers,
at ToombsborO, together with ii. FL.
Haggerty, Miller O'Neil, John Saunders
and Robert and John Summons. The
cell was one of the largest and best in
the jail. This morning when Jailer
Birdson awoke he was informed by the
guard who watches. Tom Voolfolk, that
the bars of the cell had been cut aud
some of the prisoners had escaped.
Hart and Rogers are professional
they are we'll up in their line. John
Saunders and John and Robert Sim
mons refused to escape, and from them
1t was learned this morning how the
work was done. They say for several
days Hart and Rogers have been en-
gagged in process of softening the iron
bars, and for the past few nights have
been working continuously saving the
bars. They have used for this purpose
a silk thread, and thereby managed to
Go the work noiselessly. Saunders says
the men were aided by an outside party,
and made Jailer Birdsong proposition
to sreveal his name. Jaiior Birdsong
has his own suspicious already, how
ever, and hopes to be able to settle the
question in a few hours.
The men sawed through two outside
bars one inch in diameter. When this
was done they got together, and by
main force moved the network of iron
bars from the outside of the window so
That a man could pass through. They
they then wrested the two bars on
which they had been saving, breaking
them off about one foot above where
they sawed. This left an aperture
about one foot square, through which
they passed. The cell was on the Sec
ond story and to get to the ground they
had to lower themselves with the ban-
kets, which they tied together and
made fast to the bars. The work was
all cleverly done. and it is clear that 1t
was devised by Hart and Rogers.
About thirty feet from the cell the
guard placed over Voolfolk is stationed,
and the work must have been done en-
tlrely without noise, or he would have
heard it.
