The family could not cross to the shore, and for four days no one heard their calls for help. During this time the river graduflll)‘ rose, snb- merging the hut, and for three days tle family was compelled to stand on chairs and tables, and finally on the fourth day and night clung to the narrow roof of the shed to escape drowning.

For a month past the | Government has known that the adver- saries of the present regime, who we | annoyed because of the financial excit ment of the country, wished to create in- | ternal differences and bring about the fall | | of the Government. The authorities adopt |ed a calm, vigilant attitude and de- termined to act at an opportune moment. | A police officer was detected receiving | money from the monarchists and distrib- | uting 1t to various agents. Other persons also recefved large sums. The plan of the conspirators was a | childish one. They proposed to arrest | | President Salles at Petropolls, and if suc- | cessful in this a provisional government composed of six members was to be es- tablished. The inquiry is still being car- | rled on.

When the Animal First Sprang a#¥ Him One of Its Claws Tore His Hand, Causing Painful Wound. QREGFIF-ENE Spectal Dispatch to The Call. SAN RAFAEL, March 10.—Fulton B, Allison, a well-known young man of San Rafael, met an adventure with a panther on Bolinas Ridge early this morning, which, but for his presence of mind and the speed of his horses, would have had a fatal termination. Allison started out from Bolinas early this morning, stopping at_Little Carson Guilch to water his team. He had got oft to fix the bridles when his attention was attracted by a stealthy footfall on the side of the hill behind him. Looking round he found himself face to face with an immense panther. For a moment the beast seemed paralyzed at the encounter. Taking advantage of this Allison sprang into his wagon, at the same moment the | horses scented the panther, and wild with terror plunged forward just in time to avold the animal's murderous impact, its claw, however, lacerating Allison's hand in its attack. From Little Carson Gulch to Libertys Station is four miles of steep down grade and a race for life followed for the entire distance, the horses urged by their terrified driver stralning every muscle and the panther following the fly- ing wagon In huge bounds. At Libertys Station the brute gave up the chase and slunk off into the woods. Some hours of rest were needed before the exhausted team could start again and Allison’s hand is to-night extremely Rah’lful where the panther's claw struck im. Patterson Convicted.
