They took seats near one extremity of the’ mot- tled marble, and the gentleman, true to the observences of polite socicty and fully alive to the sultriness of the atmosphere, removed his hat.

I could see the carbon paper showing through.” D was A ntleman who Wwent out to Southern California years ago for his health, told me of a remark- able experience with this sume stealthy animal. With a friend he was out trout fishing in a wild canon among the mountains. The gentleman, whom we will call Mr. A., had taken his friend, a stranger to the region, into the mountains, intending to give him chance to catch some speckled beauties and, perhaps, to shoot a dear or two. They had their rifles with them and the friend was sitting on the bank of the stream with his gun across his lap. It should be said in his behalf, however, that he was not accustomed to use the weapon. [t was early in the morning, they had just reached the stream, and Mr. A. sat on a little sandspit on the farther side of the brook, cngaged in fastening a fly-hook to a line. His rifle was leaning against a tree several feet A little cur dog, called “Lady had accompanied them, and ~ she was indulging in a hunt on her own account. She soon found the dog’s proverbial enemy,u eat, but one for which poor little iy would have made scarcely two mouthfuls. Yelping, she ran and_ jumped into Mr, AJsarms; when, to his astonishment 1 enormous mountain lion came hound” ing out of the woods after her. He sat motionless and almost petrifled, but did not lose his presence of mind. The beast was too near for him to get to his rifle, and, by a sort of instinet, he felt that his only chance was to keep his eyes on those of the lion. Ividently it had been so intent on the pursuit of the dog that it had not seen him at first, and three or four bounds brought it to within about five fect of Mr. A, Then it stopped short, braced itself, and glaved at his human foe. Mr. A., with his hand on a long hunting-knife in his belt, looked the enraged animal steadily in its eyes, while Lady cowered in his lap. Every hair ou the lion seemed to stand out steaight, which gave it a most ferocious appearance. For a moment it was difficult to say what the creature would do; although if Mr. A. had made the ‘slightest movement, especially a motion as if intending to shrink away, or had failed for a moment in his stern, steadygaze, the lion would undoubtedly have sprung upon him. 1t is wonderful how the mind acts at such a time and how swift and curious are its impressions. Whiie intensely conscious of an extremity of danger, he was also aware of of the ludicrous action of his who, instead of shooting the 1st, was jumping up and down in an 1 of terror, shouting *‘shoo!” > as though tha lion were nothing more formidable than a big tom-cat. It was well, perhaps, that he took this course, for unless a cool, steady aim had put a bullet through the creature’s brain, it would hav® been so infuriated by a wound that Mr. A, would have had no chance . As it was, the lion’s eyes faltered and wavered before the fixed gaze of man, the bristling fur went down, and then the creu wheeled and boundad off into the near- est cover. By the time Mr. A. reached his rifle it had disappeared tinally. dilted Her Lover. A vecent St. Louis special says that MissMildredNiedringhaus.the daughter of Henry L.
