Ki A terrific combat took place on Monday between Messrs. W. Carter and Jonothan Watson and a noted bear known as "White Face," which has long been the scourge and terror of the Santiago mountains, which resulted in serious, though not fatal injuries to Carter and the death of his bearship. The men were looking for pasture for their flocks when they suddenly came upon the huge grizzly. The bear immediately attacked Mr. Carter, knocking him down before he could draw and cock his pistol. The bear made two terrible bites at his breast, tearing his flesh in a horrible manner and immediately pursued Mr. Watson, who had retreated in order to prepare his rifle for action. Mr. Watson fired a ball from his Henry rifle, which lodged behind the left shoulder of the brute and served only to enrage him further. Another shot entered his thick hide without avail. The third shot missed from a defective cartridge. When the bear was within six feet of Mr. Watson he fired a fourth shot and succeeded in sending a ball through the skull, just above the eye, which stretched the monster at his feet. The bear has caused much trouble in the mountains and has destroyed many sheep belonging to the San Joaquin company. Mr. Carter was conveyed to his home and is now in a fair way to recovery.

The extension of Lemon street to meet Harvard street from Fullerton is now assured and work on the project will soon begin. The proposed road passes through John Pfeninger's ranch and the right-of-way was secured some days ago when the superior court allowed him $3000 for the right-of-way. This new highway will greatly relieve the congestion on the state boulevard, and, as it will not follow the cowpath blazed by Gaspar Portola 150 years ago, it probably will not have so many curves in it.

See FRANCES GIFFORD in “Riding High”, a Paramount Picture FRANCES GIFFORD SAYS: “You can’t make a bad cup of M·J·B” Good news gets around. 43% of all M.J.B users first tried it because friends and neighbors recommended it. If you like to get your money's worth, you'll like M.J.B coffee. In this one fine blend you get several of the world's choicest, richest coffees perfectly flavor balanced. Any way you make it... mild, strong, in-between... drip or regular grind... there's no gamble with M.J.B. It's always good. Split second accuracy. That's the timing on M.J.B's "individual bean roasting process." And that's why you get extra flavor and fragrance from these fine, choice beans. The same is true of M.J.B's maximum vacuum seal. It promises that you get this luxury coffee just as it comes from the roasting oven; fresh, delicious, guaranteed to satisfy. So good we guarantee you'll like it. You can't make a bad cup of M.J.B.

Moll, pastor of the Bethany Pentecostal church, officiated and burial was in Melrose Abbey cemetery. Colony Quips (Continued from page 1) Just does not make sense anymore. We know that there is a shortage of oranges down south and that the southern grower is receiving more money for his crop than ever before and also that he is not a sucker. We also know that the frozen concentrate is selling for more money in New York this year than it did last year even in the face of a doubling of production by Florida this year. That our baloney only brings a smile to the modern growers face. He won't even try to swallow it any more. The whole tune must be changed. The fresh fruit boys will have to realize that frozen concentrate is here to stay. The consumers like it and the grower gets paid for what he raises. The boys are going to have to get the salvage idea on by-products fruit out of their heads. From what we have heard the grower means to force the issue.
