MORE THAN LUCK.

| Adam Malone. Of the head of Cow
creek, was a Havre visitor the latter
part of last week. Mr.. Malone is one
| OF the prosperous ranchers of that
prolific country and is styled as the
luckiest man in that neck O the
woods There is a romance connected
with Mr.. MalOne's career which con-
| firms the statement that he is not
only lucky, but has a quick percepta-
bility that seldom fails to land right.
In CHANGING over the columns of
"Heart and Hand" several years ago,
Mr.. Malone selected the name of
young lady from among the
hundreds on the marriage market,
and entered into correspondence with
her. The name he chose was not
Flossie or Goldie, but just plain Jane.
They were married. No visions of
brown stone front arose to mar the
happiness of their honeymoon, but in
stead they betook themselves to Mr.
Malone's prettily located ranch in the
Bear Paws and went to work. The
mother-in-laW also cast her lot with
them and has been a strong factor in
the success and prosperity they now
enjoy.
Their range is we'll stocked with
cattle, horses and sheep. The yards
are decorated with turkeys, ducks,
geese, chickens and porkers, the soil
has yielded bountiful harvests, the
table is laid with their own produce
and the hand of hospitality is extend
ed to all who visit the home.

Alameda Dealers Busy.

ALAMEDA, July 17.-While trans
actions with local realty dealers were
not as numerous during the last week
as they were during the preceding one,
the agents who buy and sell houses
and lots are optimistic and look for a
quickening in the market after the
close of the summer vacation and the
return of people to their homes and
business.
Considerable building is being done
and many of the homes in course Of
construction are pretentious dwellings.
According to the report of Sanitary
Inspector E. c. Mailott, one hundred
and forty houses were put up in Ala
media within the last fiscal year. This
breaks all previous records for any
corresponding period in the history of
the city. With reference to local real
estate conditions here is what some of
the dealers have to say:
William Hammond Jr of Hammond e. Ham,
mond says that Alameda is now attracting
more attention from persons seeking an Ideal
place for a home than IL has ever done before
This inquiry is in a great measure due to the
systematic advertising that the city is being
given through the efforts of the Alameda Ad-

MEMS LIVES IMPERILED
IN A BURNING MINE
Fire Destroys Mills and Machinery
and Four Miners Are Impris-
DrisOned i'm a Tunnel.

OROvILLE, July IA fire broke
out this afternoon at about four o'clock
at the Bella View Mine near Laporte.
The mill. engine room and other build
ings close to the mouth Of the big tun-
mel were destroyed. Four men were
working in the tunnel when the fire
broke out and fears are entertained for
thir safety, as the tunnel is strongly
timbered and it is thought these tim
bers will catch fire from the huge fire
now blazing. The men in the tunnel
are L. Byrnes, Morgan Bean. d. Nc
Donald and Bert Cumley. There is a
strong force of water at the mine for
fire protection. but the fire broke out
just just where the hose was placed
and 1t was impossible to make use of
the water supply. Word was sent to
Laporte and to Gibsonville and a force
of men and teams from each town
hurried to the mine

Many Close and Exciting Games Are
Played on Golden Gate Park
Courts

Two tennis tournaments were set for
yesterday, but the absence of many Of
the cracks from town necessitated a
postponement Of the handicap doubles
tourney at the California Club courts.
Six pairs Of players were present, but
the tournament committee decided to
call the event off until the cracks re-
turn to town.
On the park courts the first and sec
ond class players met in class singles

first time under the new classification

much closer and more satisfactory than
heretofore.

semi-finals in the first class and to the
finals in the second. In the latter
Fred Adams and Horace Mann won
the coveted places. In the first class
the four remaining players are George
Baker. Clarence Griffin, Carl Gardner

named and the two last named will
play against each other.
There were several surprises, chief
Of which was the defeat Of Will Allen
at the hands Of Norman Ambrose. 1t

first class and he was not considered
TO have a chance against Allen. Allen

but at that was expected TO beat his
opponent easily. Ambrose won the
first set with little difficulty. When
Allen had annexed the second set by

Raging mad from a shotgun wound
in his body the mountain lion that three
days ago began terrorizing the farmers
living in SchmidtviIle, a hamlet just
north OF Berkeley. attacked Frank
Bercher, q ranchmRn, this morning and
wounded him so severely that he had
10 seek the services of a physician to
mend his hurts. Besides clawing a
long strip Of flesh out Of Bercher's left
cheek the animal scratched both his
aims and one of them he will wear in
q sling for some time to come.
Bercher went cunning for the animal
early in the morning armed with
shotgun loaded with small shot. Much
70 his surprise he came upon the brute
while il was drinking from pool in
one OF the small canyons back OF
Schmidtville. The encounter was as
much a surprise TO the lion as TO Ber-
cher, and the animal started TO run
away.
Not counting the consequences Of at
tempting to bag a mountain lion with
small shot Bercher fired, with the result
that il was only wounded in the shoul-
der. Angered by the pain the animal
turned in its tracks and made one great
leap toward it's pursuer. 1t fell short
8 bit but Bercher was taken so un-
aWares that he fell over from fright. In
this position the animal could have
killed Bercher but it seemed more in
tent on getting away. for it merely
gave him two or three slaps with its
paws and then skunk away.
Although the slaps were few they
were not dainty. The claws tore big
furrows into the flesh, so big that the
Point Richmond doctor who treated
him says he will wear scars for the
rest Of his life.
The story of Bercher's encounter
spread over the country and in a little
while hunting parties were securing the
hills for the beast. The brush in all
the canyons was beat UP for miles
around. Only one hunter got a glimpse
Of the lion, however, and that was
while il was creeping among some
brush, apparently wounded but still
able 10 make good time.
This mountain lion has been making
life miserable for the ranchers OF
Schmidtville by stealing their sheep
and calves.
