when one of them called attention to a
bull running wildly towards them. The
woman picked up the two smallest chill

house and locked the doors. The bull
tried to butt the door in, and finding his
efforts unavailing he paid his attention to
the clothing in the yard. A red garment
received especial notice. The animal
remained on the premises for four hours,
during which time the woman and her

made at this session to have change in
the manner of selecting grand officers
and have the same rule followed that
is observed in the grand lodge of
Masons, namely. progression in office.
II the idea carries then the associate

POLICE PUZZLED OVER
BROWNS DISAPPEARANCE
No CIew Obtained as to Where
abouts of Rancher

The police are puzzled over the
strange disappearance of Amazon H.
Brown of Santa Barbara, who arrived
here October IL with 800 in his pocket
to purchase dairy machinery. Every
effort has been made to obtain clew
to his whereabouts, without success,
and the opinion is gaining strength
that he has been foully dealt with.
His friends. among them Theodore
Reichert, formerly surveyor general
and c. i. Haskell of COZ Ashbury street,
are very much alarmed at his long
silence, and his wife and children in
Santa Barbara are grief stricken.
He was a man of exemplary habits,
which makes his disappearance all the
more puzzling.
