HALTED BY A MOUNTAIN LION.
A Night Adventure of Three Girls on
California Road.

A Night Adventure of Three Girls on
California Road
1--WE were driving from Oakland over
the ridge that divides Alameda and
Contra Costa county, three girls bound
for country dance at Moraga Valley,
little settlement on the Contra Costa
side. 1t was late in January, and the
night was pitch dark, but as the young
rancher who drove knew every inch OF
the way we were not afraid.
1--WE had made the ascent OF the
mountain and were driving down at
good pace when suddenly the horses
stopped, reared and then swerved to
one side, overturning the rockaway and
landing us all in the mud on the side
of the road. No one was hurt, and as
we picked ourselves up, wondering in a
dazed way what the trouble was about,
something lcaped out of the bushes,
over the backs of the prostrate horses,
and lit in the brush on the lower side OF
the road. There was fearful roar,
and then we saw two great, green eyes
staring 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 her to hang on for dear life.
"'It's lion, and hell jump in an
other minuter said the man.
''Then, as we sat speechless from
fright, the rancher drew his revolver.
There was 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 suffi-
GENTLY we jumped out of the rockaway
and with the aid of matches examined
our game, 1t was splendid young
California 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 con-
tinued our trip, creating a great sensa-
ton among the rustics at the dance
when we told of our adventure. To be
sure, we gave the driver credit for the
actual killing, but weren't we there
when it happened, and didn't we KEEP
quiet, instead of screaming as lots OF
pirls would have done?"

fact, the great enemy of the mucous
membrane. Neglected colds in the head
almost invariably precede catarrh, caus-

the mucous discharge becomes interrupt
ed the disagreeablc results of catarrh
will follow, such as bad breath, severe
pain across forehead and about the eyes,

Gov. Thornton was seen this morning

considerations Of truthfulness, for the
statement is absurd on its face. AZ long

Galop-One Minute Too Late. T. j. Frala
The cool head and two strong arms of
Geo. Crawford, one Of the senior pupils
at the U. s. Indian school, averted a
serious runaway this morning. Mrs.
Jones occupied the back seat, and Craw.
ford was driving, when the Indian schools
team of big bays started to run at the
Exchange hotel corner. The driver could
barely sway them to the side of the street
in time to prevent capsizing as they
turned the corner at DR.. Sloan's house
and again at the corner of st. Vincent
yard as they dashed up Palace avenue.
The team was finally brought to stand
still in front of DR.. Andrews house. Mrs.
Jones was much frightened, but, Ikea sem
sible woman, refused to jump. That
team should be driven with JIG bits.
