One Of the most striking accomplish

pUEF WAGONS POLL
The ROADS TO
YOSEMITE

RAYMOND, Cal. July 1i.-This
little city, which is the railroad ter
minal for the famous Yosemite valley
route, is fairly alive with automo-
bles. Hitherto lumber drays, can
vas covered camp wagons and lum-
bering stage coaches were the only
vehicles known to the town. but an
invasion of "horseless carriages" has
begun and autos are rolling in from
all directions, en- route for the beau
tiful Yosemite.
The touring care craze seems to
have hit California hard. and in no
portion Of the state is the innovation
more marked than here. The splen-
didly kept stage road leading through
the Sierras and various summer re-
sorts to the wonderful canyon of ma
lures grandest handiwork offers
smooth, hard tracks and gentle
grades for the auto car and the big
puffwagons are invading the territory
of the old stage coach in great num-
bers. All through the National park
the autos are vending their way,
filled with tourists, campers and ex-
cursionists. Many of the puffwagons
come from San Francisco. 900 miles
distant, and yet others from Los An
geles. over 400 miles away, and not
few are those of eastern auto en-
thusiasts who are touring the west.

MOSES" TOOK
A TIMELY BATH

EVERETT, Wash, July 14.-Moses,
the pet cat of Roy Petit, little son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Mort Petit, saved
one of his nine lives by a rare bit
of animal intelligence a few days
since. When the Petit residence
caught fire Moses was forgotten by
all save little Roy. who made fran
tic efforts to escape from his mother
and rush to the rescue of his pet.
He insisted that the cat was being
burned alive and refused to be COM
forted, but suddenly his tears ceased
to flow and he gave a cry of JOY.
Moses had saved himself. Although
a little tardy in scurrying from the
burning building, and with his fur on
fire all over, Moses knew exactly
what to do about it. Like streak
of fire the cat dashed past the crowd
and leaped into a tub of water that
stood under the garden faucet. In
another moment, with his singed fur
bedraggled and his whiskers all burn
ed off. Moses was clasped to the
breast of his little master.
