LAssoED A MOUNTAIN LION.
The Daring Exploit of Two Intrepid
Californians.

NalllOTHldhS'
Two men living in Green Valley, in
the mountains east of San Diego, had a
lively experience with mountain lion
recently. They were on their way to
the Griffin ranch on horseback, and
Mrs. Hobbs, mother of one of them,
was with them. Young Hobbs was rid
ing ahead, with Griffin behind him,
when a sudden turn in the creek bed
through which they were passing took
Hobbs out of sight for a second. In
that brief space there was an unearthly
bowling and screeching, followed i'll
stantly by the rearing and plunging of
the horses. Mrs. Hobbs shrieked in
fright and there was general hubbub.
a mountain lion had jumped out up
on young Hobbs, uttering ferocious
cries as it leaped on the horses Shoul-
ders, and used its hind claws with great
rapidity. Hobbs leg, fortunately was
encased in long boots of heavy leather,
which resisted the lions onslaught.
The horse in plunging dislodged the
screaming brute, which darted back un-
der the shadow of a cactus thicket.
Hobbs reached for his gun to prepare
for another attack. Griffin had his
hands full III looking after Mrs. Hobbs,
whose horse had become unmanage-
able.
Placing her at safe distance in the
rear, he returned and hastily put up a
SpDnn1n with HnhhS tn tnlyn thn hin
brute alive. Hobbs was to draw it from
the thicket, while Griffin, with lariat
ready, was to rope it. Griffin retreated
few steps, making his lariat ready,
while Hobbs. with warwhoOp, dashed
toward the clump. The lion, crouching
in the shadow, screamed with rage and
jumped out toward him, frothing at the
mouth and splitting. The horse trem-
bled with fear
At that moment Griffin spurred for
ward, threw the lariat with steady aim,
and in another second had the lion
struggling in the dust with a tight rope
around its body. 1t clawed and screech-
ed, making frightful uproar, but Grif-
fin, sinking the spurs in deep, dashed
down the road, dragging his feline cap
tive over rocks and cactus. Hobbs ran
back, got his mother, and returned,
bringing up the rear. Griffin kept up
lively dog trot in order to keep the
line taut, while the lion wasted it's en-
ergy clawing at the rope, occasionally
making sally toward the horse in
front of him.
Hobbs, by attacking it from the rear,

Pins,

Pins, previous to 1924, were all made
by hand, and were, consequently, very
costly. Pin-making machines have been
brought to state of perfection. They
now receive the wire from the spools,
cut 1t into proper lengths, make the
head and point, polish the pins, and, by
a most singular piece of machinery,
gather up, at one motion, proper num-
