LIONS GO DEER HUNTING.
Big California Cats Kill More of the
Timid Animals Than ALI the
Hunters.

More deer are killed every year In
California by the mountain lions than
by the bullets Of the hunters, states
the Los Angeles Times.
Next to the jaguar, our mountain
lion is the largest cat in the two
Americas, and he is the champion deer
slayer of the world. Within 80 or 40
miles of Los Angeles he catches the
feet-footed, graceful creatures and
wakes fat on the sweet flesh. He knows
no deer season other than all the
time.
Wherever there is good deer coun-
try in this or any other southwestern
state, there, also, is the best place for
lions, and hat is one of the reasons
why the large herds of deer are rest
less, seldom staying long in one local
ity. There is nothing that they fear
more than the sight or smell of a
mountain lion. Not even the sudden
appearance of a hunter will SO quickly
drive them away from a range of hills.
The lions method of hunting the
deer is not unlike that of the big cats
of Africa and India in pursuit Of the
antelope and deer of those countries.
Having found a spring or pool where
the desired game comes to water at
nightfall, the lion selects an overhang-
ing limb or ledge of rock, whence one
leap will carry him to the back or
throat of his prey, and thereon lays
himself out in perfect accord with the
limb itself. In the gathering dusk
the imperfect eye of the deer has little
chance against this hidden terror, and
the wind, usually his faithful ally, can
help him none now, for the lion is
far and away too old a campaigner not
to lie up wind from the spring.
The deer comes; one leap from the
limb or ledge, and the sharp teeth and
powerful paws soon break the tender
neck; and don't you believe it when
anyone tells you that a California lion
can't carry away a deer. The writer
has followed the plain, broad trail of
the heavy pads for over half a mile, and
then come suddenly on the place where
the killer had stopped to rest. There
in plain outline was the imprint of the
deer's body; but for that whole dis
lance the lion had carried it well up
and clear of the ground. Such "por-
tages" are not %infrequent in the career
Of a hunting lion, as these animals
never eat their game where they kill it.
Sometimes they hunt. in. pairs. but in
Perth Amboy evening news., 1904-03-25

SIX or eignt years spent IN the mis-,
the writer has seen but one such hunt
ing pair.
Like the rest of the cats the world
over, the mountain lions mainstay in
hunting is patience. He will wait for
hours on a narrow limb or on a rocky
ledge in the coolest night rather than
get out like a coyote and scour the
slopes for his supper; with feet "a
noiseless as an owls wing, he will fol-
low an unsuspeting rabbit or belated
spike buck until a favorable opportu-
nifty for a leap presents, and then II is
generally "all day" for the hunted.
But of all things the lion loves deer
meat, and, while he will dare a great
many dangers for young pig. his liking
for deer is even greater than that.

It is intimated that the handsome
young woman may have had the assis-

she was arrested was sworn to by half
dozen prominent business men. ana
accuses Miss Pitcher Of assault with
intent to commit felony and with ao'
mipistering ether to Wilbur Quirk to
enable herself and other persons Nh
known to commit robbery.
Startling Developments,
likely to involve with Miss Pitcher
men who have not before been men

authorities say. can be expected.
When arrested by the sheriff the
beautiful girl protested her innocence,
but lost not a whit Of her dignity. She
led the officer along the railroad track

there told him where to find a revoi-

San Domingo, Jan. 19.-An incident
which came near having serious re-
suits. but for the GOODNESS and prompt
Intervention of United States Minister
Powell, took place here on the arrival
of the Clyde line steamer New lork'
President Morales demanded that the
shipping agent surrender the snip
letters, and when the agent refused 10
comply his arrest was ordered. In
oorder to avoid being arrested the
agent went on board the New YORK
carrying the letters with him. He then
sent for Consul Maxwell. who accom-
panied him to the palace, where Pres
ident Morales renewed his demand
and compelled the agent to give up
several letters.
Minister Powell. learning OF the In
cident, promptly went to the palace
and demanded that the letters taken
from the agent be delivered to him.
This President Morales refused to do.
but
Minister Powell Persisted
in his demand, saying that the gov
eminent had no right to take such &C
ton and that the president must hand
tthe letters to him, which President
Morales reluctantly did. Minister
Powell also told President Morales
that the agent was entitled to his pro-
Injection as he represented an Ameri-
can company, and that he (PowelD
would not consent to this arbitrary
act on the part of the government, and
that furthermore the agent could not
be expelled as was threatened. Final
ly the case was satisfactorily settled.
Minister Powell finding that the
government was unable to protect the
tug Anna, which is owned by Ameri-
cans, while entering San lsidro, re-
quested the commander OF the United
States gunboat Newport to guard her.
The revolutionists threatened to cap
ture the Anna, and

to protect her and other vessels
