DINING ROOM RUGS.

By the Alameda we received
a large shipment of grass rugs.
They are of all sizes, all colors,
and of many figured designs. We
got them in such quantity and at
price that will permit them to
be sold low. They are just the
thing for the dining room or den,
are artistic, and, although cheap
as regards price, are not cheap in
appearance.

UP TO HIGH.

A prominent young lady eontralto of Brooklyn was singing at concert the other night, and by request she sang the old favorite: the words of which run My evening star, wonder where you are,' etc. Unfortunately, her ac- companist, although thoroughly con versant with her duties as such, pitched the song too high, bringing it out of the contralto's natural voice.. After the latter had sung four or five minutes, she realized that the pitch was too high. She strove to be cheerful and struck a jaunty pose, but the words, of her song semed to mock her.
 Way up so high like diamond in sky scared the contralto, growing very red in the face. The word high" was an F sharp. The audience realized that the situation was humorous, and in spite of its appreciation of the ex- cellent voice possessed by the artist, many faces broadened with merriment.
 I wonder where you are, she continued, with dolorous note, unin- tentlonally brought in. The bit of pathos nearly convulsed the friends of the contralto.
 At last the climax was reached. "'Come down, down, come down from there, my evening star :" caroled the singer, with all her energy, The high G brought the veins out upon her face and neck, and her countenance was crimson with effort and chagrin. The applause was thunderous as she leftthe platform, but she nearly collapsed in a side room as soon as she had dis appeared. ..z&}
 "Oh, my, that was terrible!' she ex- claimed. I told her the key of D would be all right. Wasn't that terrible? Wasn't it simply frightful Brooklyn Times t.s 5fas

GIRL WHO HUNTS BEARS.

Miss Taggart Killed Seven of the Bruin Family and a Mountain Lion, l Miss Abbie Taggart, who is the guest of Miss Pearl Duke at 602 Ingraham street, may well be termed one of the most remarkable girls of the west, says I the Los Angeles Times. Miss Taggart is an outdoor girl Ever I since she was three years of aga, when ! her father strapped er~to the back of l a pony which he let loose in the home yard, giving it slap to make it run,
 she has developed a love of daring and l risk that has inspired her to many wild adventures.
 | Miss Taggart recently returned from | the Lake Tahoe district, where alone she shot and killed seven bears and a mountain lion, not to mention small game. ~~zt' : This locality, thirty-five miles from the town of Sonora, is rugged. The foresters camp is at Cow Creek, on the old Mono and Sonora toll road, over which millions of dollars worth of gold ore was packed in the early days. But
 now only wild animals pass that way,
 Twenty-Five miles away, in the deepest
 and loneliest of Sierran grandeur, is
 Kennedy's Lake, a place especially fla
 vored by Miss Taggart, who has often
 made the trip unaccompanied on her
 spirited horse, with hunting knife and
 ammunition at her belt and rifle loaded
 for big game. Perhaps she would not return to camp for two or three days,
 but her parents never worked, for they
 knew her self-reliant and independent
 nature. .E "Getting the first bear was a cinch,"
 said Miss Taggart. T was riding along when suddenly my horse gave a
 snort and jumped about ten feet. Right ahead, among the pines, I dis covered a black bear. I had been wish
 ing for just this thing to happen. I
 determined to kill that bear, but my horse was pirouetting about most dreadfully. It was his first bear as well as mine and he didn't like it. Af- ter he'd turned several somersaults and tried to climb a tree I jumped off and let him go. My, how he did run
 'eThen I faced MT. Bear, who was backing away and looking rather indig- nant, as if to say Madame, you're inE truding. He eyed me savagely, but backed against log, stopped and glared at me. This incident was ver- ification of the saying that He who hesitates is lost I took careful aim, fired and MT. Bear with one final de- spairing grunt toppled over.
 = T tell you what, though, my next bear gave me a fight. He was rous- CT, weighed almost eight hundred pounds, and was as fierce as fifty dev- ills. This time, also, was on Mega phone-that's what I call my horse. The horse and I caught 8 simultaneous glance of a huge baleface black bear. The habits and characteristics of this species are like those of the grizzly. They are ferocious fighters. Well, that old fellow walked leisurely toward us
 wagging his head from side to side and regarding us with a murderous eye. When within about thirty feet of us he stood on his launches and blew whoof, whoof, whoof, whoof! My, but he was mad. shouted at him, shrieked, yelled, made all the hideous
 noises could think of just to see if he would shoo, but he wouldn't.

GOOD OPENING FOR A FUSS.


 A new family had moved into the apartments on the first floor. Coincidently with the arrival of thu new tenants a cat with a following ot five or six half grown kittens moved In and took possession of an obscure cor ner In the hallway.
 From the statements of parties most interested it appears that these, animals began bowling at or near six o'clock p,
 m. of the same day, and kept it ur without intermission worth mentioning until elsyen o'clock, at which hour 3 tall man wrapped in the folds of g dressing gown and wearing a pair o1 squeaking slippers was seen descending the stairway, from the apartments or 1 the second floor. As he reached the bottom of the stairs a door leading into the apart ments on the first floor opened, and a man with a skull cap and an angry countenance emerged.
 T don't know who you are" said the man in the dressing gown, ''but my opinion is that you haven't got much humanity about you-if anybody should ride up i'll front of this building in an automobile and ask youn' T don't know who you are, either,'' responded the other man, "but you can't have any worse opinion of me than have of you--if some man should happen to write you letter of inquiry about it!''
 Why don't you take those cats in and feed them
 Why don't you do it yourself? ?" x
 ''The idea of half starving lot of kittens and letting them yowl all night long and disturbing everybody in the building"-
 :"It isn't disturbing you any worse than it's disturbing me. If you want those cats fed you can feed tlem."
 "I'll show you how I'll feed them!" exclaimed the man in the dressing gown, striding over to the corner, gath ering the animals up in his arms, talk ing them to the front door and deposi- ting the bunch Oh the porch outside.
 What have you got to say now, sir?" he demanded, turning and facing the new tenant belligerently.
 Nothing. Except thank you, sir,
 "Wh-whatg. Aren't they your cats?"
 Not at all I thought they were yours"
 Well, by the great horn--Say, my names Rogers. What's yours?"
