TOOK HER FATHERS SEAT.
A California Girl Who Drove Stage Over
a Dangerous Mountain Route.


Dangerous Mountain Route.
Butte County's most popular daugh-
ter to-day is Annie Morrison, whose
father, Henry Morrison, is one of the
most famous characters on the coast,
says the San Francisco Chronicle.
"Hen" Morrison has driven the coach
from Cherokee Flat down Morris Ra-
vine to Oroville for 10 these many
wears. He is a typical old-time stage
driver, hale, bluff, hearty and good ma
tured, who could not live anywhere
else but in the region in which he has
spent the better portion of his life, the
mountain region of Northern Califor-
MIA. To him Tin Cup Ravine, Sherman
Ravine and all the dozens of defles in
the mountains are as familiar as Lolita s
fountain is to the statues of Kearney
Street. For years it has been his spe-
cial mission in life to bring down the
gold from the mountain recesses to Oro-
Vile. Few men could safely drive a
coach over that road, but Hen Morrison
had been there so long that it had
never occurred to anyone that he might
meet with an accident or be called
away. So a short time ago when he
leg broken there was distress in the
OOlAu w A1O SSSAA AAAA Lag paw
was the main question. The many
deeds of valor and kindness of the old
stage-driver, his many battles, by phys
ical exertion and the aid of his ready
gun, were recalled. There did not
seem to be anyone to succeed him.
But the stage went out the next morn
ing just the same. When the horses
had been hitched and all the minor de-
tails had been attended to Miss Annie
Morrison, the charming daughter of the
unfortunate old driver, jumped onto
the box, took up the reins, cracked her
whip, and drove away. Throughout
her fathers illness she drove the stage
and did it as we'll as Old Hen ever did.
Her independence and bravery COM
manded attention and forced respect.
Miss Morrison is only about 20 years
old, and is a refined and well-educated
young lady. She had made the, trip
with her father many a time and had
sometimes driven the horses. Why
should she not do SO during the conva-
lescence of her father? With her to
think was to act, and for nearly month
she manipulated the lines.

Making Use of Rats.

Makers of rat traps think they have
done good thing when they kill a rat.
Generally, they do not know what is
beyond. In Paris the rat trap does not
kill the rat; they catch him net to
drown him, as here, but to utilize him
The rat is set to work to eat the flesh
from the bones of carcasses When he
bias done that thoroughly, then his
slaughter comes. His fur is used for
trimming, his skin for gloves, his thigh
bones for toothpicks and his bones and
tendons for gelatine wrappers.-Hard-
