HAS COUGAR FOR PASSENGER
Stage Drivers Queer Experience
with Animal In Mountains North
Of Spokane, Wash.

Spokane, Wash.-Grant Turnbull. a
stage driver, operating between New
port and Elk, Wash, north of Spo-
kane, had an experience with a full
grown cougar which he will not forget
for some times.
While driving along the narrow
mountain road near Rogers pass
his horses became frightened and
boIted. The driver managed by sheer
fortune to keep the wheels OF the
coach in the ruts, and after the horses
had expended their energy he made
an investigation. Perched In the
rear of the coach was a ferocious
cougar. Before the animal could
spring upon hfEa. TurnbulI used the
butt of his heavy whip, but the big
cat leaped over his head and disap-
peared in the timber before he could
infict the death blow.
Settlers in the northern part Of
Spokane county report cougar nu-
merous, but this is the first instance
of a stage driver having one as a
passenger. Turnbull claims a new
record for driving a coach from the
point where he discovered the cougar
to Newport.
There is a bounty on the head of
cougar in the state of Washington.
Tom B. Hopper, a noted bear slayer,
who has killed hundreds of cougar
and wild cats in this part Of the west
during the last twenty-five years, is
organizing a party to make a hunt
there with trained dogs.

Sharon, Pa.-Mr. and Mrs. E. B.
Mathews, who have a farm near
Wheatland, have been arrested to an
swer for their alleged tll-treatment
of Charles Bebout, aged 81, q son Of
the woman by her first husband.
The first knowledge Of the case was
received here when warrants for the
arrest Of Mathews and his wife were
sworn out before Justice of the Peace
Peter Cook ct South Sharon.
AS a result of intervention Of the au-
thorities Bebout occupied a clean
downstairs room, and it is under
stood the poor directors will have
him removed to the county home at
Mercer.
George S. Luse, a milk dealer, re-
ported to Constable William Halls of
this city that he had heard strange
noises when driving past the isolated
Mathews house, which is almost sur
rounded by trees at the edge of a 1oo-
acre farm. Appeals for water and
cries of 'Oh. mai" came from the
house, according to LRse.
Accompanied by Herbert Reardon,
Constable Halls went to the place at
night. After much difficulty the two
men gained admittance and went up
stairs. Covering in a corner in one or
two little connecting rooms, Bebout
was found in a room devoid of furni-
ture, it is said, with nothing but a bed
of straw for him to lie down on. The
windows are reported to have been
boarded up. The accumulations of filth
lay on the fooor, it is alleged. Bebout
gazed at the visitors from beneath
eyebrows two inches long. His beard
reached to his waist.
His quarters are said to have been
alive with Yermin. The step-father, ac-
cording to the officer, explained that

she was finally stranded hard and

After an examination of the vessel
and ascertaining the ships situation,
Capt. Davis decided to send a life

for the venture. Provided with food,

Just before daybreak the sound of
heavy surf betokened near approach

about like a CHIP, was swamped.

she heard some one fumbling at the
door, and a moment later heard q
sharp click as tbs lock was thrown

The burglar Was more frightened
than the woman when she deiantly
confronted him and demanded what
he was doing there.
Il represent a-a-a-" he began,
when he was cut short by Mrs.
Jahkne, who was not to be deceived.
'sYou are a common burglar she
cried, as she started for him. Get
out of here at once"
When the intruder failed to follow
these Instructions promptly enough to
suit Mrs. Jahnke, she decided to add
physical force to moral suasion. Be
fore he could realize what was hap
pening to him, the burglar was seized
by the collar Of his coat and the seat
of his trousers and rushed to the door.
As she pushed him into the hall
Mrs. Jahnke delivered a series Of
blows about the face and head that
took all Of the fight out Of him. He
broke away, but in doing so left a
handful Of hair, the only souvenir Of
his visit. The last seen Of him he
was doing a Marathon race in record

No Attention Was Paid to the Signals

two men forward leaped out, and all
four managed to fight their way to
the beach. The lifeboat, battered and
ruined, vas dashed up on the rocky
beach, and the men managed to save
some spare sails, the ships compass
and the oars. With the bars and can

under which they huddled until day

man, started out to explore, and after
forcing their way inland FOR a mile

by a Chinaman who could talk q little

men made their way ten miles through
the jungle to a small settlement at a
Chinese tin mine, from which O mar

to Java and thence to Singapore for
help.
Meanwhile those on the stranded

reported to have been ignorant of Be-
