HALTED sY A MOUNTAIN LION.
4 Night Adventure of Three Girls On q
California Road.

A Night Adventure of Three Girls On q
California Road.
We were driving from Oakland over
the ridge that divides Alameda and
Contra Costa counties, three girls bound
for country dance at Moraga valley, a
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.
We had made the ascent Of the noun
tain 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 pick
ed ourselves up, wondering in dazed
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 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 her to hang on for dear life.
ut is lion, and he'll jump in an
other minute, said the man.
Then, as we sat speeohless from
fright, the ranoher drew his revolver
There was a scream unlike and more
dreadful than anything had ever heard
Then the great beast rolled few feet
in the brush and was still.
After the horses were quieted and we
had regained our composure sufficiently,
we jumped out of the rookaway, and,
with the aid of matches, examined our
game. 1t was 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 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 it hap
pened, and didn't we keep quiet, in
stead of screaming as lots of girls
would have done?-New York Sun.

CONCERNING KINGDOM COME"

Lecture by Mrs. Charlotte Perkins
Stetson Last Night.
Mrs. Charlotte Perkins Stetson, q
woman widely known in later day lit
erary circles, and noted also in not small
degree as student OF sociological cues
tions, and a rather bold and aggressive
advocate of advanced beliefs, lectured
last evening TO a large audience before
the Sacramento Lecture Association. She
was well received. She is an easy
speaker, has grace and huency, is choice
Ill her dlctiOn and evidently is moved by
conviction. She is persuasive, while ag-
gressiVe; dealing hard blows, but deliv-
ering them with smile and fairly
WriugIng from the auditor confession
that she Is rlght-aG least her assumption
that her audience is with her is peculi-
arlty OF her method, and a very clever
one. Mrs. StetsOn Will not, we should
say, be classed as a popular lecturer. Her
rostrum Is that before deliberaIOrs upon
social and economic questions, which the
general and promiscuous lecture assoCia-
ton audience seldom gather TO hear dis
cussed.
Her subject last evening was "king-
dom Come" ana she treated OF it for an
hour and malt. varying her discourse by
reading from her poems, and now and
then pauslng as If to give her hearers op-
portunIty TO rest attention." She holds
Kingdom Come" TO be working out
Gods will OF earth, which improvement
IN social conditions promises. She aimed
to show the detects OF existing life in the
low average development of the race
physically, morally and mentally. Touch
Ing upon the nature OF evolution, she
claimed society to be an organic
body in process of evolution, and
that our present social unrest marks
new stage in development a carrying
out OF existing methods, applying to our
industries those principles OF organiza-
ton already in use in matters military,
religious and social.
This change accomplished, the effect on
the people will be. she holds, as marked
Improvement as that shown when or
ganlZatlon in defense gave us our civil
and military service in place Of self-de-
tense. She sought to present a series of
facts and TO suggest lines OF reasoning,
frightening her address with an occa-
sional well-told story and pointed alIu-
sion TO Well-known facts.
The effect was to leave on the minds of
her hearers strong impression of her
Ideas OF human progress, and OF her claim
that the coming industrial changes are
rot matters oil class rebellion. but of
general Improvement, benehting all
classes and all people, and that this ben
eft is by no means confined to mere ma
terial advance, but will in very truth
give US the kingdom Of heaven on earth.
