The hurricane which swept

storms moving at more than so

standard scale. q hurricane exerts

Strips Romance From
Golden Gate Indians

The Indians who lived in and
around the Golden gate before the ar.
rival Of the Spanish soldiers and
priests were Of exceedingly low caste,
dirty, extremely dull and devoid Of any
personal beauty, according to a writer
in the San Francisco Bulletin. One
writer tells Of the Indians in 1774 as
follows:
1.-THE savages encountered proved
very friendly, but manifested much
surprise at sight of such a multitude
Of women and children. Previous to
that period they had beheld only few
soldiers.
1.-THE appearance Of the cattle Gre
ated amazement, as the natives had
never seen such animals before. They
would often visit the white peoples
camp and In return for shellfsh and
wild seeds they would receive glass
beads and eatables.
"They accepted everything except
the milk Of the cows. They would not
even taste this"
