The city hall elevator was closed this
afternoon at the instance Of Inspector
Hopkins, who declared In would be
useless to attempt to enforce the new
elevator law unless the city took the
initiative in the matter OF provid
ing the appliances and safeguards
ordered by the Legislature. Com
sequently, apparatus is being intro
duced to close the elevator doors before
the car can be moved in either
direction. The work cannot be
completed today, but will be finished
chosen because the Offices close

HALTED By A MOUNTAIN LION.
A Night Adventure OF Three Girls on
California Road.

California Road.
We were driving from Oakland over
the ridge that divides Alameda and
Contra Costa counties, three girls bound
for u country dance at Moraga valley, a
little settlement on the Contra Costa
side lt was late in January, and the
night was pitch dark, but as the young
ranonor who drove knew every inch of
the way we were not afraid.
We bad made the ascent of the noun
tain and were driving down at a good
pace when suddenly the horses stopped,
reared and then swerved to one side,
overturning the rockaway and landing
US all i'll the mud on the side of the
road. No one was hurt, and as we pick
Cd ourselves up. wondering in q dazcI
way what the trouble was about, some
thing leaped out of the bushes, over the
backs OF the PROSTATE horses and lit in
the brush ON the lower side of the road.
There was "a fearful roar, and then we
saw two great, green eyes glaring out
of the darkness
The driver had succeeded in pulling
the frightened horses to their feet and
righting the wagon, He ordered us to
get into our seats, and handing the
lines to the girl on the front seat he
told Egr to hang on for dear life.
1T Is "a hon, and he'll jump in an
other minute" said the man.
Then, as we sat speechless from
fright, tho rancher drew his revolver.
There vas a scream unlike and more
dreadful than anything | had ever heard.
Then the great beast rolled a few feet
in the brush and was still.
After the horses were quieted and we
had regained our composure sufficiently,
w jumped out of the rockaway, and,
with the AID Of matches, examined our
game. 1t was n splendid young Califor-
mia mountain lion, measuring about
four feet in length. We three girls
were all very brave when We found the
beast was really dead, so we helped the
driver lift the carcass into the back of
the wagon and then continued our trip.
creating a great sensation among the
young rustics at the dance when We
told Of our adventure. To be sure, we
gave the driver credit for the actual kill
ing, but weren't we there when 1t hap
pened, and didn't we keep quiet, in
stead Of screaming as lots of girls
would have done?-New York Sun.

What and Where Is Heaven?

Alger says that heaven is not dis
tinctively a world situated somewhere
in immensely, but that it is "a state of
pure spiritual existence, having nothing
to do with -ny special time or place"
He further says that ''heaven is a state
of the soul or a state of society under
the rule of Gods will, either in this life
or in a future state of existence. " From
the above it is clear that tine great al
