$500 on Lions Head.

Five hundred and seventy dollars
is the reward offered by Trinity coun-
ty stockmen for the head of an old
mountain lion that has been killing
cattle and hogs for the past two
weeks, covering the distance from the
Long Ridge county to the vicinity of
Lewiston, sixty miles or more. Forty
steers have been slaughtered, to say
nothing of hogs and colt or two.
The lion is a big one, according to
the reports of few who have caught
a glimpse of it. 1t is believed, too,
that it is an old fellow.
Two trained hunters and twelve
dogs are in pursuit. The dogs treed
the lion on Buckeye Mountain, but it
escaped before the hunters could get
a shot at it.
More than $4,000 worth of stock
has been killed by the lion in two
weeks. So Trinity stockmen dubbed
together and made up purse Of
$3.50 as a reward for it's head. The
State fish and game commission al
ways pays $40 bounty for noun
tain lion. So the hunter who Stays
this particular lion will receive a
reward of almost $500.
The lion does not devour the flesh
of the animals slain, being content
to tap the jugular vein and drink the
life blood.-Lewiston, Cal., corre-
spondence of the New York Sun.

COTTON PILED UP AT HAVRE.
French Port Has Resemblance to New
Orleans.

Havre has always been the most
cosmopolitan port in France, but
never before the war would you get
three British half-pence and a Bel
gian sou in eight cents worth of
small change That trivlality is SYM
bolical of the Havre of today-only
half French, three-eights British and
an eighth Belgian.
1t is the influx of the British that
has doubled the traffic of the port
during the past nineteen months and
congested the docks until scores of
ships are at times seen lying for days
in the offing, waiting for spot to
become vacant at the quays. The
quays themselves are piled with bales
of cotton, giving to the port a resem-
blance of New Orleans.
The cotton sheds, covering twenty
acres of ground and fitted with twen-
ty electric cranes, have become in
sufficient and the bales are rolled
upon the quays everywhere that a
ship from New Orleans happens to
find a berth.
The traffic of the port of Havre,
which amounted to 100000 tons
in 1918, was less than half that of
Rotterdam and only a little more
than a third of that of Antwerp and
Hamburg. The reasons for it were
largely lack of docking facilities and
the limited railroad communications
with Paris and the centre of France
Even before the warships were some
times held up in the roads waiting
their turn to dock, and new basin
called the Tidal Basin," was plan
ned and partly finished with the view
to relieving congestion.
The congestion of traffic now is
not only hindrance to commerce,
but a danger to navigation, which
greater vigilance on the part of the
French navy against which is con-
sidered sufficiently serious at Ger
man submarines may obviate, but
the present time to justify consider
alton of the temporary use of the
uncompleted Tidal basin as a refuge
for vessels waiting their turn to
dock.
The town itself is far more anil
mated than in time of peace, and is
unavoidably getting rich from the
vast expenditures of the British COM
missary department and the individ-
ual trade of officers and soldiers.
English shop signs are seen every
where alongside the French, for
Tommy Atkins" is slow in learning
the language.
One of the most conspicuous things
one sees in the Rue de Paris, the
principal street in the town, is
British Bar" in big, brave British
red on the window of a saloon. A
little further on a sign points the
way to the British club, while there
are tea rooms everywhere, and res
taurants that conspicuously adver-
tise Ham and EGGS 'The right
shop for British" Come in and de-
mand for all the things which you
want" Football boots," are among
some of the appeals to the soldiers.

TOOK EVERYTHING BUT ROOM.
Now Hotel MOdifies Its "StOp, Have
You Left Anything" Sign.

The management of a local hotel
is considering the removal of the
sign in each room which serves to
remind the guests that they are to
leave nothing in the room when
they are leaving.
The sign contains only the one
phrase:
.sStop! Have you left anything?''
It proved so forceful to guest
leaving the other night, however,
that he left nothing in the room that
he could carry away without the aid
of moving van. Lieut., towels, table
covers and even the Gideon Bible
were missing next morning, and Ray
Boyd, clerk, says the new sign will
read:
