He had hardly settled himself in his
position when his ear caught the sound
OF a peculiar whirring noise, which he
recognized instantly, and promptly
made the greatest leap of his life.
Turning about he saw large rattle
snake in coil, his head erect, and the
peculiar vibrant apparatus at the end
OF his tail continuously in motion, CIV
ing forth that warning sound, which,
once heard, is forever remembered. 49,
Tom could have shot off its head with
out difficulty, but he was afraid Of
alarming the deer which he hoped were
in the nefghborhood. He, therefore,
hastily opened mbardment of the
enemy with stones, and speedily dis
abled it,
Where you find one of them you're

hunter to himself, and proceeded to
select another hiding very nearly
on the opposite side of the slick.o
An hour more passed with no signs of
game. Then, getting tiged of his en-
forced inaction, Tom decided to go to
another ',lick, one which he had often
heard his grandfather describe, but had
never himself visited. 1t was situated,
he had been told, about mile farther
along the swamp lands, from which a
number of saline springs ooze up.
He went to the north side of the bog,
keeping within the borders Of, a long
copse of laurel which covered the hill
on that side. The little hickory belt,
between the laurel and the, swamp
alders, offered clearer walking. and as
the wiad was southerly he hoped to
approach .unperceived by any game
which might be about the lick"

er Tom drew back one foot, his left,
then his right, very slowly. But the
two panthers wrigglcd along on the
ground, just as far as he moved, keep
ing their glowing eyes fixed on HIS
face, and each doing exactly as did his

The poor lad, knew not what to do;
would spring upon him and tear him to

more. Again the sportive brutes
wriggled along by his side.
Finally the young hunter in his back
ward course came to a large log, and
feeling very weak from the long strain
on his nerves, sat, almost fainting, down
on it. The panthers drew up nearer, and
resting their jowls on their paws
watched him unwinkipgly.
What would not Tom now have given
to be ont of his dangerous situation, and
safe at home again!
He inwardly berated himself for fool
for coming back when he was once safe

AN ADVENTURE.
Tom Deane,s Agonizing Experience
with Two Panthers.

Few wild animals bear greater va
riety OF names than-let US give an in
complete list of his names - cougar
puma, American lion, American tiger
and panther, often corrupted into
PAINTER Indian devil. catamount.
The panther, that is his best name
has very extensive range, being found
from Northern New England all the way
through both American continents. He
Is an active climber. His cry is Pc
culiar, and has often been taken for
the scream of a woman. There are WE'LL
authenticated instances of persons in
dense forests who have hurried, as they
supposed, to the rescue OF woman in
DISTRESS =ha4eanat- discovered their
fearful mistake until the fierce animal
was upon them.
Ordinarily the panther is cowardly
beast. 1t sneaks up behind its victim,
after the mariner of the lion of South
Africa, and. though it often retreats
rather than engage with an enemy, it is
dangerous foe when wounded, and oc-
casfonally displays remarkable courage
There are parts of Pennsylvania which
are almost as wild to-day as they were a
century ago, when the shout Of. the red
Indian awoke the forest echoes, and no
settler had trod the unbroken solitudes.

of the closing in upon them of the stead

Mr.. Wilson Deane is well-to-do
farmer in the wild region of which l
speak. He has son, Thomas, now
eighteen years old, a bright, wide
awake, good-natured youth, who still
goes to the dis riot school in the winter,
and assists his father during the rest of
the year. He is a strong, active boy

LONG METRE SONG
Of Arbitrary Measures Of the Citizens
Water Company.

EDITORS HERALD: The case now be-
fore Judge Austin against one Brady, OF
the Citizens Water company, for cut
ting the pipe on the G. H. Innes place,
on the corner of Yarnell street and
Ocean View avenue, to force the collec-
ton of an unjust metre bill for water,
has developed in the testimony the fact
that the hole in the main, the tap, the
stop cocks, and the pipe connections, be-
long to the consumer by reason of his
having paid to the water company the
sum OF SIP for one-half inch and $lS
for three-fourths inch tap. Now then,
if such is the case the water COM
arrested for tampering with
the consumers property, in every in
stance of shutting off the water. The
present arbitrary method of the water
company in shutting off the water from
consumers, when the amount to be paid
is under dispute, will receive back set,
and the water company will have to
proceed in the usual legal way to collect
their water bills. The ordinance pas
sed by the city council last February in
regard to water metres, says that in case
of large consumption or waste of water,
llle metre VIII Tell Ille proper duOUllI W
pay. Mr.. NJ. L. Wicks has assumed the
fact that those places having lawns
were wasting water, and forced metres
on all such places. If, as the testimony
introduced in the court establishes,
that the hole, stop cock, pipe and con-
nections, belong to the consumer, then
the water company has trespassed in
placing metres on the consumers pipe
and are liable to arrest.

WANTED HIS MONEY.
A Catalina Financial Matter Which il
Probably Settled.

Mr.. Alonzo Wheeler, of Avalon in the
island of Catalina, has adopted a novel
way to secure money on debts. He
went on Friday afternoon to the dis
trict attorneys office, and there told
Mr.. McComas that w. B. Atwood had
obtained $42 from him by means of a
check for a like amount, on the South
ern California bank, and which Atwood
alleged to be good. Wheeler, however,
could not get it cashed on presentation.
He therefore wanted a complaint drawn
up. As he spoke so much about bring
ing criminals to justice, Mr.. McComas
unhesitatingly gave him complaint
and told him to take it to Justice Saw
age, where the warrant would be is
sued. When Wheeler reached the
township Justices court he intimated
plainly that he only wanted the war;
rant for the purpose of terrifying At
wood into repaying the money. Justice
Savage declined to make a collection
office of himself, and refused to issue
the warrant. Yesterday morning,
Wheeler went to Mr.. McComas and
wanted the complaint dismissed-pre
sumably he had scared the money out
of Atwood, for the latter's father-in-law
was also around Justice Savage's court,
and he, too, wanted the case dismissed,
and the matter hushed up.

"CHALK" AND CUDDY.
A Personal Encounter Which has
Caused Much Comment

Mr.. "Chalk" Roberts, a deputy con-
stable who was in attendance at the
Democratic congressional convention
recently held at San Diego, and ex-chief
OF the police T. ]. Cuddy, had a personal
encounter, few evenings ago, at the
latter's place OF business on First street.
There was no damage done to either
participant, but for time words and
other things flew around in very
lively fashion.
The trouble between the two is envel-
oped in great amount of mystery.
Nothing definite could be learned about
it, more than that it originated from
some very sensational occurrences which
took place at Coronado during the con-
yention, but of what nature these were
the HERALD reporter could not learn,
any more than that Mr.. Cuddy consid-
cred that Mr.. Roberts had, at the con-
vention, in some way reflected on a
friend, and Loyalty resented it.
The affair caused widespread comment
in political circles, and it is asserted by
friends of the parties concerned that it
is likely to lead to more difficulties.

The Effects of Mental Exhaustion.

IN A TIGHT BOX.
The Tabors Will Be Called Upon te
Explain Their Conduct Tomorrow.

Judge Ross of the United States dis
trict court on Friday evening made an
order citing William Tabor and E. A.
Tabor to appear before him tomorrow to
show cause why they should not be pun
ished for contempt on interfering with
the operations OF the court. 1t appears
from the affidavit of w. H. Ham and
Charles Maxwell, the former an engi-
neer and the latter a fireman on the
Southern California motor road COM
pany of San Bernardino, to which l. H.
Polk was appointed receiver by the feder-
al court a couple OF months ago, that the
Tabors violently interfered with them
while in performance of their work. On
the 10th of the present month, while
they were at work on their engine, the
Tabors jumped on it, drew a revolver
and threatened them with violence if
they did not quit work for Polk. For
this the men are now liable to be
severely punished.
