FLAMES ON THE RIDGES.
Valuable Timber Land Is Being De.
stroyed Near Santa Cruz

SANTA CRUZ, Sept. I7.-Great damage
is being done to timber land by the fierce
forest fire that has been raging in the
Santa Cruz Mountains. For a week the
blaze has been sweeping over the coun-
try and showing no signs of abatement
although large forces Of men are at work
lighting il and reinforcements were sent
from this city to-day.
The mountains are entirely hidden from
view by day by the pail of smoke which
settles above them and at night the
flames can be seen on the ridges.
The territory burned over now covers
twenty miles, which means more than
three miles burned over in a day, the
greater part Of IL being virgin timber land
Of redwood, fir, oak, madrOne and other
woods. The fire started in the neighbor-
hood Of the Iona Prieta mill and spread
through the narrow and high Hnckley
Gulch, covered with some Of the finest
timber in the State. The greatest dam
age was done in the Valencia Gulch and
the F. a. Him Company are the biggest
losers.

LOSS Of RING
CAUSES HIS WOE
Well Known Los An
geles Resident Taken
to a Jail.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 17.-Harry
Grider son of former Councilman L. NJ.
Grider, one of the best known real estate
dealers in this part of the State, was ar
rested to-day at the instance of Mrs.
Marguerite Lawless of Ohio on a charge
of felony embezzlement, and to save him
from spending the night in jail his father
put up $1,000 cash.
Mrs. Lawless is visiting her sister, Mrs.
Bishop, who was negotiating for the pur-
chase of a house through the Grider
agency, and young Grider met her at Mrs.
Bishops house during a business call.
She wore a diamond ring which she had
lust purchased for $3.50. He admired 1t,
and asked permission 20 put it on his
finger Then he began talking real estate
and when he left took the ring with him.
Mrs. Bishop wrote him. telling him to
return it, but received no answer. Twice,
thrice and four times she wrote. and still
came no answer Then she consulted an
attorney and he found young Grider. but
not the ring After much questioning
Grider admitted that he had taken the
ring to Catalina Island. There he had
been induced to enter a poker game con-
ducted by a man from Arizona. He lost
aI his money and the Arizona man then
advanced him $3.50 on the ring, and he lost
that also.
After relating this story he asked the
attorney and Mrs. Bishop what they were
going to do about it. He was answered
an hour later by an officer, who appeared
and read a warrant of arrest to him. The
Arizona man has also been found. but
he declares he sold the ring.

FITTING THE FOOT
AN IMPORTANT MATTER
Why the Left Pedal Extremity Is
Generally Larger Than the
Other

The question Of which foot to fit first
is an important one to u.s. said the shoe
salesman, as he tugged to get a small
pair of Oxfords on large foot. 1T may
seem strange to you. but it is rarely that
We do not experience some trouble in
fitting one foot while the other is easily
covered. popular belief obtains that
the left foot of every person is the hard
est to fit and consequently many shoe
clerks always try a shoe on that foot first.
1t is not true, however, according to my
observation, that there is any infexible
rule as to which foot to try first 1t is
true, nevertheless, that in a majority of
cases if you succeed in fitting the left
foot you will have no trouble with the
right. My practice is to try both feet
before 1 pronounce a pair Of shoes a per-
feet ft. Then 1 am sure of avoiding any
mistake growing out of peculiarities Of
foot formation.
mo two people have feet formed exact
ly alike. and the shoe salesman who
thinks so and is governed accordingly
will meet up with many complaints For
some time 1 pondered over the problem
Of fitting shoes to feet, and especially as
to why the left foot should be considered
the standard by which to be governed.
The only rational theory have ever been
able to evolve IS a very simple one when
YOU come tC consider it. Nine out of ten
people you meet are righthanded, as we
say. About one person in ten, or per-
haps the per cent is even less than that,
uses his left hand. II you will observe a
person who uses the right hand when he
or she is standing and talking, they in
variably rest their weight on the left
foot And vice versa, a left-handed per-
son will rest his or her weight on the
right foot. The result is that with right
handed people the left foot is probably
a fraction larger than the right foot, and
the shoe clerk must inevitably find this
to be a fact sooner or later. That, in my
opinion, is the explanation of the common
belief that the left foot is the standard
to 20 by in the fitting of shoes But as
I have already said, there is no rule that
+ is absolutely safe to follow, and my plan
is always TO fit both feet before I let a
/ customer leave the house. New Orleans

The Art of Travelling.

Travelling is so easy nowadays" is the
trite utterance of the tourist, and espe-
cially Of those who have learned to make
Of travel one Of the fine arts. But. like
all arts. il requires practice and familiar
itv with its laws. The difficulties made by
me untraveled over little journey and
their anticipatory fears and terrors are
still the fruitful theme for the story
writer. But the days when everybody
travelled with bird cages. bandboxes and
lunch baskets are about over, and the
good traveller Of these times is known bv
the. absence rather than the presence of
baggage. Not only have people learned
TO travel with ease, but they have discov-
cred the necessity of imparting order and
design to their plans tor journeyjags
I'm going to see my own country first ."
is the commendable decision of the wise
prospective American traveller, who would
be ashamed 10 look upon London without
having first seen San Francisco and
would scorn to confess TO a Venetian that
he had never seen Boston. There is one
thing at least that travel will not dot
will not impart the gift of expression to
the traveller or relieve him Of that de-
spair of silence into which so many are
plunged. Change of scene may cure the
lover Of his hurt or bring back the blush
of health to the worn-out man of bust
ness, but it will not put fresh words into
the mouths of those who are suffering to
reveal what they have seen and who fall
back upon that old complaint, II can't
describe it." It is words rather than
wealth that the accomplished traveller
needs in order that he may rely upon his
conversation more than upon his camera
for the revelation of the scenes of Bis
travels.-Chicago Tribune

Diamonds in the Rough.

There are many people who think that
much of what is real culture and refine
ment is merely affectation. They believe
that a diamond in the rough is the only
genuine diamond. If a man is sincere,
they argue, if he possesses manly quail
ties and is loyal to truth, no matter how
uncouth and coarse he may be outwardly,
he will be respected and will be success
full. This argument is good only to a lin
tied extent What is true of an uncut
gem is also true of a human diamond in
the rough. No matter how intrinsically
valuable they may be, one would
think of wearing uncut diamonds. A man
might have a million dollars worth of
such gems: yet. If he refused to have

PARENTS RACE
AGAINST DEATH
Thrilling Drive in Wash.
ington to Save an
Infant.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

VANCOUVER, Wash, Sept. 17.-Curt
and Grace Anderson of Lacenter made a
thirty-mile ride against death yesterday
from their home to this town. They
gained the race, but death finally won.
The stake was Glen Anderson, aged s
months.
Glen was suddenly seized with illness.
The parents thought there was one last
chance to save their child and. hastily
hitching two horses to the lightest wagon
they could find, they started on their long
ride to Vancouver. All the journey was
over rough and hilly country and scarcely
half the distance was passed before dark
ness fell upon the racing horses.
While the mother tenderly cared for the
child the father lashed the team in the
feeble last hope that all might still be
we'll The child was still breathing when
the weary horses dragged the wagon into
the CITY, but death had really won the
race for the baby died soon after it was
taken from the arms of the despairing
mother.
The body was prepared for burial last
night and to-day was shipped to La

Humboldt County Chill

Special Dispatch to The can.

EUREKA, Sept. 1.-Two young chill
dren were drowned this afternon in Fran
els Creek, a stream which runs through
the town of Ferndale. The victims were
the son and daughter of z. w. Oracle,
aged respectively and 4 years.
The children were playing on the bank
of the stream and it Is thought the girl
fell into the water and the boy lost his life
in an attempt to save his sister. The place
in which they were drowned contained
water to the depth of six feet.
The discovery of the bodies was made
by the mother, who, missing the children
went to the creek to look for them and
was Mortified to see the body Of the little
girl floating on the water. Further search
resulted in the finding of the body of the
boy at the bottom of the pool All ef-
forts to revive the children were unavail-

preciate them. The Impractical eye
would not be able to distinguish them
from common pebbles. They are valuable
only in proportion to the degree of brill
liancy and beauty which the diamond cut
ter can call out of them.
So, a man may be possessed of many
admirable qualities, but if he insists on
covering them with a rough, uncouth ex-
terror they will be. robbed of much Of
their intrinsic value. They will be dis
covered only by keen observers or expert
character readers. What cutting and pol
