CALIFORNIA STORIES.

The first discovery of the territory now
known as California was made about the
N dde of the sixteenth century by the
Spaniards, under Cortez; but no settle
ment was made by white men until about
century ago In 1853 the Franciscan
monks. who had succeeded to the Jesuits
in tho lower peninsula. withdrew from
that country TO Upper California and
established a mum ber of missions near
San Francisco. In 1922 Mexico became
independent of Spain, and from that time
until 1910, in which year the missions
were broken I'D. the Franciscans contin-
uallY lost ground. LILLE NELSON.

beasts were heard. Sharp and other
strange sounds rang out that startled
Patoquah, but she boldly hit the ball and
said:
Il command you 70 appear"
And, )" answered a voice that shook the
hills, Il shall obey"
With the voice came smoke laden with
The smell OF spice trees of Bagdad. Then
there was white light in the cave that
hIled 1t andthen the light turned a deep
red next; from the smoke came forth a
voice. 1t said:
"Patoquah. innocent little child of the
forest, whom do you seek?"
II am looking for the Genie; where is
he?"
Il I'm near, but only my hands can YOU
see Tor you half broke the charm bv

"Oh, tell me-"
From the smoke there was raecboo
toward Patoquah by the hands of the
Genle-hands larger than any eiants-a
rose orier There are no roses in these
hills, said the hidden Genie, but in this
one brier are asleep all the roses Of 1000
years waiting for you."
Patoquah took the brier and went forth.
In sunny slope she planted it and II
grew to a great bush in a night. There
the earliest blush of morning save its
flowers rich red. The golden noon
called forth roses like cloth of gold. AT
twilight, when all other flowers were
sleeping and had closed their petals. forth
in the starry silence came roses as white
ana sllYery as the stars themselves.
Since then there have always been rare
roses IN the valleys. There ever soft
winds and the sun have loved them and
called up bushes to the damask of their
cheeks. There they have been glorifed
and made perfect.

PATOQUAH
AND THE ROSES

In one of the pleasant valleys of Cali
fornia there idly wandered one day, be-
fore white man had set foot upon the
soil, little Indian girl named Paloquah
picking flowers.
This was in the spring time, and the
whole earth seemed 10 the maiden to be
covered with lupins. bright yellow pop-
pies and the cheerful "hag lilies" as
they are called by the Toys and girls of to-
day.
"Patoquah, PatoquahI" called q Cali
fornia quail, for the birds came nearer to
talking than they do now, although you
will find by listening carefully that they
have not quite forgotten that name yet.
'Yes, l hear you" answered PatCquah,
''what do you want?"
"Come and play with Us, Patoquah,
and if you get tired of our play we will
call the Genie of the hills to show you the
real secret Of this Towering land"
PatcQuah was the close friend of some
of the fairies that even now live under
Tamalpais Mountain. She had never

her, which was often, for she was light of
foot, the BIRDS had as much fun over it as
did Patoquah.
In one of her runs Patcquah was led
into canyon of What is now known as
Strawberry Creek. "Lah-Iah Wah"-this
was her name Tor it-''a stream that the
sunlight and the moonlight love"
"Oo," sang the birds, 'here comes the
Genie"
Patoquah looked ahead but saw nothing
she had not seen many times except a
queer looking bush that seemed to be
floating in air just above the creek
How would you act if you saw a bush
going along all by itself2 The bush in
this case was acting in that fashion. Pa
toquah waited for it to come near.
Straight down from it jumped a little
man who was dressed all in cloth of gold
In Jlffy he had her take her seat in the
bush. Then 1t was up and away.

The little man who had travelled In the
bush reappeared and said: eff you want
to see the Genie-he is in the copper ball
you must let him escape"
How shall l help him2"

the savage was a look of horror in stead of
the customary glare of feroc!ty. The
water bubbled and edded as the savage
swan away, and his flight was evidently
inspired by fear. And now Binnie was
frightened, for he saw that the unseen
force had hold OF the signal line upon
which he had depended and it was draw
ing him along. He was coming closer TO
the seeming flower of the sea. He was
struck with its beauty, but was awed By
the mystery. One foot touched upon a
reef. His foot was braced in an instant.
Then he got his other foot upon point
OF coral and bracei with all his strength,
and for few seconds he tried to maintain
his position. From the direction of the
>ea flower came suddenly a cloud of ink
that surrounded Bjnnie. Then he knew
that his enemy was the devilfsh. He
swung his ak wildly and by great good for
tune did not hit the signal cord, but Topped
the tentacle of the devilfish neatly il two.

W hich he at once brought to a line with

Binnie stood his ground, now that he
was discovered, and with great GOODNESS
and courage awaited the onslaught. He
knew very.well that the savage could not
stay under water more than a very few
minutes. All that wou be necessary,
so far as this particular savage was con-
cerned, would he to hold him off for a
short time.
So, as the savage came fercely swim

adream, born of his strange surroundings
Before another savase could find him
he had made his way to the It IN of the
yacht, and then lost no time attacking he
sea growth that held the propeller. He
worked with all his might and main, and
was soon able to cut away the impeding
substance.
He was now in haste to get once more
upon the deck OF the California, and he
pulled the signal line to be raised to the
surface OF the water. What was his hor-
ror TO fad that his signal was u answered 4!
What had taken place be ask d himseif f.
Had the line become twisted In with the
weeds through which he had beer COM

the keel OF the yacht and the propeller
completely from sight.
The waters Of the lagoon fairly teemed
with life. Huge fishes swan in Binn1e',
direction. a man-eating shark had some
curiosity, but blow on its nosa with the
sharp ax which Binnie held firmly sent
the shark away, leaving a stain of blood
behind it. Binnie saw that he must risk
passing through the sea growth benea h
the keel Of the ship. Then he must fol-
low along the keel until he could locate
the propeller. II he was entangled he
mieht lose his life. This was a DANGER
upon which Binnie's father had not
counted when he consented that Binnie
should be the forlorn hope to save the
yacht. But what was that that Binnie
saw before he had time to reach the pro-
peller as he CROPPED his way under the
water toward the stern of the yacht in
the deep shadow of the yacht above his
head2 Another figure was moving in his
direction, and another and another. Now
the first disappeared and the second came
nearer and disappeared, and the third
advanced until it was quite near him.
Binnie was not easily scared, but when
he saw that these objects were not deni-

were really savages, and that they had
