DROWNED IN THE SURF.
Fred Rnhland Carried Away BY
the Tide at Bakers Beach.

Another SAD case of drowning was reported
yesterday. The circumstances OF the accident
show how dangerous is the swell at the ocean
beach, even 10 those most familiar with It.
For many years George and Fred Rutland,
hne and strapping young men, sons of Frederick
and Christian Rutland, pr0prietOrS OF tue Rich
mond Dairy, were accustomed 10 take baths az
Bakers Beaeh.s The dairy of their fathers Is sitI-
ated on Point Lobos and Thirly-seco avenues.
and the morning Journey 10 the beach was onlY
a distance sufficient TO give Zest TO the exercise
attendant on swimming.
Yesterday morning tile two young men repaired
to Bakers Beach Tor their usual bath. For eight
years they had been accustomed to visit tue
place and never thought Of danger. Botn wore
bathing suits when they went into the water
Alter bathing Tor some time Fred Rutland
noticed that his cousin, George, had swan ouE
100 lar, and was evidently in danger from The
great undert0w.
Two were soon together stemming the tide with
lusiy sinews. Soon large wave came and sep
arated them. The current was stronger than
they had anticipated and 1t required all their
strength 10 buffet against the tide.
A mixer working for the Richmond Dairy was
standing ON the beach and saw tile danger Of the
Two Ruhland boys. He at once plunged in and
hastened TO their assistance and managed 10
him TO shore.
The mixer was unable to give any aid to Fred
who had sacrificed his life In going TO the assist
ance OF his cousin The young man, exhausted
Dy his struggles, was carried under before the
George Rutland was taken to his home on
Point Lobos avenue and was found TO be IN
critical condition. Last evening little hopes
entertained OF his recovery
Fred Ruhlands, who was drowned, was 81
years OF age. His death produced the profound
est grief in the Rutland household. During the
afternoon search was made for The body, but
without success. The deceased was a nephew
OF Police Officer Sbaeffer. Another effort will
be made TO discover the body this morning by
dragging when the tide Is low the spot where
