Chased Two Miles by Angry Whale.

Los Angeles, Cal, June 23.-L. G.
Murphy, a wealthy tourist OF Carmen,
Ind, had thrilling experience yes
terday four miles off the coast oI
Santa Catalina Islands. He came
near meeting the fate of Jonah in an
attack by a monster whale. Murphy
was fishing with E Z. Chapman Of
Los Angeles, owner OF the launc Rival,
and Skipper T. D. Clark. They found
NO tuna, but starting home came up
on huge horde Of cetaceans churn
ing the sea into foam. One was 80
near that they concluded to have fun
with it.
The launch was steered into it
broadside. The whale went down but
Immediately reappeared, going
straight for the boat. CONSERVATION
drove the men aboard to siege the
life preservers and air cushions. The
leviathan Owed wiClin a few feet Of
the craft and the fishermen changed
their course sharply. This prove d
their salvation for the next instant
the whale was on the surface again
The whale charged again and again
and the launch was turned quickly
to avoid the rushes which lasted two
miles. Sometimes the whale was so
near that Chapman could easily have
iabbed his gaff, which has five foot
handle, into the whales nose.
During the two miles chase the
whale never went completely out OF
sight, but plowed along on the sur
face or only few feet beneath the
waves and never stopped.
The fishermen estimate the whale s
length at 60 feet. 1t was of variety
known as the "fin back. "

Dale. There are three children.
Dale pleaded not guilty. Dale was

him and he managed, he said, to
give her s. week until three weeks
ago. Then the poetry business grew
dull and his funds low.
"She is not esthetic, not a bit of
it," he said. "She lets the children
run around the house unkempt and
my finer sensibilities at last re-
volted. That's the cause of it all.

"BoRN IDIOT" BEING CURED


Physicians of st. Paul, Mimi, are
following with interest the case of
William Anderson, l3 years old, who
is being treated for cretinism. Med
ical authorities say the disease,
which is roughly defined as congeni-
tai lack of brain power, is seldom
found outside certain valleys in
Switzerland. Its victims are gener-
ally considered hopeless idiots.
The lad had been without an in
telligent mind since his birth, had
lacked even the sagacity of dog,
but he is now slowly acquiring the
power of speech. This is one of the
few cases on record in this country.
Young Anderson is able to articu-
late few words. An effort will be
made in a few days to produce an as
sociation of ideas in his brain.

READY TO MARRY BY LOT

Clarett B. Simpson has written to
Postmaster Cromwell of Tacoma,
Wash, from Troy N. Y, that she
and 20 other Troy girls have formed
matrimonial club with the object
of providing wives for Pacific coast
men. The club is the result of a
story circulated in the east that 500
men of Tacoma and other coast
cities were in need of wives.
Miss Simpson is president of the
club, which, she says, will choose by
lot the members who shall marry
first. Their plan is to forward to
Postmaster Cromwell photographs of
the girls thus selected and have him
distribute them among the men
wanting wives. The club will pro-
vide funds to defray the expenses
of its members to the coast, one at a
time. If the meeting with the young
man with whom the wedding has
been arranged by correspondence
and exchange of photographs is not
satisfactory, then the club will pay
the girls expenses back to Troy.
