ROPES A CALIFORNIA LION
With Aid of a Rata Big Animal Is
Lassoed and Hanged to
the Tree

San lose. GAIA fight worthy OF
being recounted in any tale OF thrill
ing adventure was enacted on the
Morrow ranch, which lies on the
Mount Hamilton range extending
from the observatory for many miles
During the last months Of f. +. Rob
inson. foreman Of the ranch had not
iced that their young colts were de-
creasing in numbers very rapidly,
Almost every morning the mangled
carcass OF colt would be found.
Tracks around the slaughtered ami
mails told the story OF the mountain
lion. A close watch was kept, but
the depredations continued as before
and the lion evaded all efforts TO kill
him or drive him away.
One morning Robinson, with a
| bunch OF cowboys was rounding up
some stock in remote section of the
ranch. when the dog with them start
ed large animal in a thicket. They
tried TO send the dog into the bushes
but he cowed away. Suddenly an i'm
mense California lion left the cover
and ran UP a large oak tree near by,
There were no weapons in the crowd
and Robinson was afraid to send one
of the men to the wagon for rifle
lest they lose sight OF the animal en-
tirely.
| Accordingly they >5rmed Gordon
around the tree and let their riatas al
the lion The animal stood at bay
| and warded off the rawnides with his
paws. The men had almost despaired
OF accomplishing anything when Sci
BY Trimble. the crack rider OF the
J Morrow ranch. volunteered to leave
i the circle and climb a nearby tree to
endeavor to cast his rope in differ
ent manner After repeated failures
he succeeded when the lions head was
= turned the opposite way. The other
IS riatas fell quickly one after the othe.
and the animal was hung then an6
Q there.
The skin is in beautiful condition
and measures over seven feet from til
to tip. It is at present at the SAINT
Clara tannery.

DOES THE NEGRO
ADVANCE

It has. been claimed by some OF
those who have made a close study
Of negro temperament and characteE-
istics that he is really an iml1ator,
that al his seeming advancement IS !
but an imitation OF white mans DO
ings. while associated with him and
that as soon as he IS left to himself
he retrogrades surely and swiftly,
The following recently published in
the press dispatches OF one OF the
most remarkable and distinct proofs
that the negro is wholly incapable OF
advancement.
