SAN RAFAEL, CAL, April 30.-A party
from this town composed OF L, B. Marti-
nelli, John L. Greer, J. ]. Murray and
Louis Shelton had an exciting experience
with California Lion late last night
while returning in carriage from Bo-
linas. When nearing the topsot Bolinas
range Grer alighted from the carriage
and walked some distance behind it
with the intention OF taking the stiffness
of long journey from his limbs. Sud
denly he saw near the side of the road
what he thought was young fawn and
crept toward it with the intention OF
capturing it. When the pursuer was
within few feet OF the animal 1t turned
with snarl and Greer saw that he was
confronted with large mountain Hon.
Being unarmed the man took to his
heels calling for help, and the mountain
lion after observing him for a moment
took after him.
On hearing Greer's calls, Shelton, who
was armed with heavy cane found on
Bolinas beach and supposed to be q
souvenir Of the wrecked Rio Janeiro,
rushed to his friends assistance. The
lion changed his pursuit and turning on
shelton made spring at him. Shelton
struck it heavy blow on the head and
eyaded its ATTACK. BY this time Marti'
| nelli had joined the two other men aud
the mountain lion evidently cowed by
their numbers turned and made away
