She 1s employed at Levi Strauss & Co.'s factory, and while on fier way home with two companions—Annie Roberts and May Harding—Friday evening, Alvarado, who was in hiding. at Ecker and Howard streets, sprang at her with a knife in'his hand. “Well,” he shouted, “if I can’t have you I'll make an end of it now.” He struck at her with the knife and she threw up her right hand to shield her face. He threw her down and cut her hand in several places. She struggled to her feet and ran away, screaming. Alva- rado was evidently afraid to follow her and disappeared down Ecker street. The girl told Judge Mogan that she was afraid that Alvarado would carry out his threat to kill her and declaréd she would remain away from work till he was ar- rested.

The hounds were laid on to the south of the cabin and ran due north, leaving the cabin on.the right. “The line of the hunt then led out a canyen to the west, finally turhing off te the south in the foothills and pointing toward Burlingame. The drag was laid in a zigzag course. This gave the spectators a view of the most interesting part of the hunt, where the line lay over the undulating pastures which are characteristic of that district. If sod banks w substituted for the cne panel in the rafl fences at the points where the line of scent is laid there could be no finer hunting country in America. The ground is fine for galloping. as there | i3 not a pebble in it. It could not be sur- passed yesterday, as the scent held well 1d the hounds raced away as though v enjoyed the sport. Of those who started Miss Cella Tobin, Jerry K h and a third orEem pule distinguished held a commanding lead in the distapc over the field. Several started with the intention of locking on for a time rather than follow- g the entire hunt. Some were stopped by the first fence and never regained the lost ground. In the field were R. M.
