her away from the sloop the heroic
woman braveiy held the struggling boy
above the water though at times she
was forced beneath the waves by the
child's struggles. The pleasure trip
which so nearly resulted IN a Tragedy
was arranged by Roy Kingston, father
of the boy, for the entertainment OF
Mrs. Shores, his sister-in-law, who has
spent the past winter in Los Angeles,
where her motherless nephew was at
tending school. Mr.. Kingston, who is
civil engineer in the service of the
Canadian Government, on his return
from the Klondike several weeks ago,
chartered the sloop Clean at San Pedro
for a thee months cruise, and, accom-
panied by his son, Mrs. Shores and her
brother Burton Shores, has been cruis-
ing northward. Early Monday morning
the sloop was anchored close i'm to the
tule flats of San Pablo Bay, and Mr.
Kingston and Mr.. Shores We're landed
for a days duck shooting. While at
tempting to get into the small boat
that was bobbing alongside the yacht,
Horace Kingston, boy of twelve years
slipped and fell into the water Mrs
Shores, who is an expert swimmer,
heard his cry for help, and, seeing him
struggling in the water, plunged in
! after him.
| John Hays, sailing master of the
sloop. had heard the cries, and, spring
ing into the yawl, arrived just in time
to rescue the brave woman as she was
| disappearing beneath the water with
her charge tightly clasped in her arms.
Mrs. Shores revived before she reached
the yacht and aided in the resuscitation
| of the boy, who had collapsed. When
seen at Tiburop, Mrs Shores made
light of her heroic act and modestly
declined to be made heroine by her
| brother.
Several years ago, at Narragansett
Pier, Mrs. Shores rescued two girls who
had been carried off the lifeline by a
heavy breaker, and Monday was wear
