Wo were driving from Oakland over tho ridRo that divides Alameda and Contra Costa counties, three girls bound for a country dauco at Moraga valley, a little settlement on tho Contra Costa side. It was lato iu January, and tho night was pitch dark, but as the.young rancher who drovo knew every inch of tho way wo wero not afraid. Wo had mado the ascent of themoun tain and were driving down at a good Da co when suddenly tho horses stopped. reared and then swerved to ono side. overturning the rockaway and landing us all iu the mud on tho sido of the road. No one was hurt, and as wo pick' ed ourselves up, wondering in a dazed way what the trouble was about, some thing leaped out of the bushes, over the backs of tho prostrate horses and lit in the brush on tho lower side of the road. There, was a fearful roar, and then wo saw two great, green eyes glaring out of the darkness. The driver had succeeded in fulling the frightened horses to their feet and righting the wagon. He ordered us to get into our seats, and handing the lines to the girl on the front seat he told lier to bang on for dear life. "Jt is a lion, and he'll jump in an- other minute," said the man. Then, as we sat speechless from fright, the rancher drew his revolver. There was a scream unlike and more dreadful than anything I bad ever heard. Then the great beast rolled a few feet in the brush and was stilL After the horses were quitted and we had regained our composure sufficiently, we jumped out of tho rockaway, and, with the aid of matches, examined our game. It was a splendid young Califor nia mountain lion, measuring about four feet in length. We three girls were all very bravo when we found tho beast was really dead, so we helped the driver lift tho carcass into the back of tho wagon and then continued our trip, creating a great sensation among the young rustics at the danco when we told of our adventure. To be sure, we gave tho driver credit for the actual kill ing, but weren't we them when it hap pened, and didn't we keep quiet, in stead of screaming as lots of girls would have done? New York Sun. In Want of Milk. JL (mod Ktnrr is told of two Tounir Englishmen traveling in Europe, They had never thoroughly mastered any of the languages commonly spoken an the continent and were particularly weak in their French, knowing that language well enough by sight, but not having a speaking acquaintance with ir. Finding themselves in a small French town one evening, they were desirous of obtaining a good cup of coffee. Know ing that cafe was coffee, and that lait was milk, they endeavored to call for a judicious mixture of tho two, but their articulation was of so remarkable an order that they succeeded only in get ting the coffee. Cafe an lato they tried without success. Then da lay-it was attempted snavailingly. Tho suggestion that lait might bo pronounced "light" was adopted equally in vain. Finally in despair one of tire strug gling youths exclaimed: "Well, it's mighty queer wo don't know enough to get a little drop of milk." 'Do you want milk?" asked the wait ress, opening her mouth for the tint time. "Y-yes," stammered tho travelers, overwhelmed with surprise. -.i "Then why didn't yon say so at first?" - queried the girl as she flounced off. . And again the young men didn't -know. London Tit-Bits. Two Sides to the Medal. Everybody knows tho woman who says society is such a bore. Few of us ftksow her intimately, for, in point of fact, sho does not go about much. I ran across her at a friend's house the other - day and marked her languid air. The hostess was indiscreet enough to refer to it, and even the teacups shuddered with horror at the woman's reply. "Yes," said ebe, "paying calls is so tiresome." "Oh!" responded the hostess, "but think how much more tiresome it is to receive them." And the teacups scored one for the hostess. Washington Post A Bis Fine. A woman in Birmingham, England, was recently fined the British equiva lent of $503,000 for celling stale fish. Her stock consisted of a half barrel of tprats, which are very small fish like whitebait, and by tho law she had to be fined so much per fish. The magistrate, however, had the power to reduce the fine, and he knocked off f 502, 950. At the Botanical Gardens. Professor Here, young ladies, you observe a tobacco plant.

There was a great mistake in present ing that Yakima battle flag to Mrs. Tus tin on the day of the pioneer teunion. That flag waB presented to Capt. A. J. Hombreo of Company E, lamhill county volunteers, by the ladies of Yam hill county iu 1855. Capt. Hombreo carried that flag with him in the Yakima war, una on his start to return homo, thoy wore sur rounded by Indians, and iu the conflict that ensued, Capt. J lembree was killed The flag was found rolled op In his pocket, ho having put it there on his stuit for home. Mrs. A. J. Hembreo presented tho flag to her daughter, Mrs. Fred Page- Tustin, and it has never been out of tho family. It has beeu carried In every State Pioneer procession and frequently on Decoration days. Mr. Wilson was with Capt. Hembree in tho Yakima war. Ho was au intimate friend of the family, and on meeting Mrs. Tustin on the 15th lie was sur prised and pleased, and in tho conversa tion that took placo between them, she oxclaimed, "I have that old flag with me." This was the first tirno that Mr. Wilson and Mrs. Tustin had mot since her father's death, -it) years ago. Well michttbe old pioueerB have been re joiced to meet again. The writer of this noto was an intimato acquaintance 01 Capt. Hembree, 4'J years ago, and ha is pleased to cive this statement regarding the flag of his deceased friend, as also to his bravery, tils integnty, and his un bounded patriotism in defense of tho fronticrsmau. Let that flag bo trans mitted from generation to generation. S. S. The Labor novemcnt. Sr. Louis, Jane 17.

Mr. Gompers spoko on behalf of organized labor, stating that 2,000,000 people were ont of employment against their will. He said : Trusts, privileged classes and idle capitalists are increasinc their power at wonderful rate. Onr national, Stalo and municipal council vie with one another and with the courts in con ferring special privileges. If things go on as they have been lor luirly years. the historian of the future wilt be able to write the histories of the Roman and American republics in the same words.
