OCEAN RACE BY SEVEN
UNITED STATES WARSHIPS
Battleship Missouri Is Leader in an
Exciting Contest
by Sea
Bv Associated Press.

BY Associated Press
NEW YORK, May S.-News of a big
ocean race in which seven big United
States battleships participated was
brought today by the battleship Ala
bama, which arrived in command of
Admiral Charles II. Davis and will go
TO the navy yard to be oVerhauled be-
cause of poor showing which she made
in the contest. The ships were coming
up the coast last Saturday and were
about 200 miles south of Cape Henry
when the word was given for a speed
test. For two hours, it was nip and
tuck. BY that time the excitement
was running high on board the bat
tleships; the speed contest had de-
veloped into a race. Finally the Mas
sachusetts and the Alabama began to
fall behind and when the signal end
ing the race was flashed both these
vessels were far in the rear. The Ala
bama, which has the record of being
one of the fastest battleships in the
navy, was fully a mile and a half be-
hind the Massachusetts. At the finish,
the battleship Missouri, which had
drawn away from the others. was
only seventy-three miles south of Cape
Henry, having covered 126 miles in the
eight hours.

INDIANAPOLIS, May S.-The charge
against william E. Whine, an attorney
of Los Angeles, brought by DIR. John
son, promoter Of the ora Copia Mining
and Milling company, has been dis
missed by the criminal court.
DR.. Johnson is a graduate of the
Physio Medical college of Indianapolis.
After graduating he removed to Los
Angeles. where he commenced practic-
ing medicine.
William E. Whine and the doctor had
offices In the same building, and both
men became associated in business
way when they Jointly bought hill
sixty miles out of Los Angeles in which
great vein of ore was supposed to be
buried After the purchase DR.. john
son issued stock to the amount of
S3,000,O0O, and the Ora Copia Mining
and Milling company was launched.
Upon the issue of the stock DR.. john
son made trip to Indianapolis, with
out having seen the mine, according
to his own statement, and straightway
made gift to the Physio Medical col
lege of $65,OO0 in stock.
The college Immediately put the stock
on the market, and in an incredibly
short time $40, 900 in cash was collected.
OF this amount DR.. Johnson borrowed
$15000 and, accompanied by DR.. Bed
ford of the college, returned to Los An
geles to oversee operations at the mine.
William e. Whine was then sent to
Indianapolis in the capacity of secre-
tary for the mining company and to is
sue stock.
few months later DIR. Johnson ac-
cused Whine of having collected $4,000,
of which only $1,000 had been deposited
to DIR. Bedford's credit in Fletcher's
bank, as was the agreement, and as a
consequence charged Whine with en-
bezzling $1,000.

OCEAN PARK SWARMS
WITH PRETTY BABIES
Grand Parade, Participated in by a
Hundred School Children, Pre-.
cedes the Great Event

Special to The Herald.
OCEAN PARK, May S.-Forty-two
floats, burdened with babies and es-
corted by 100 prettily dressed little
girls, was the spectacle that rewarded
the 5000 persons who witnessed the
parade preliminary to today's baby
show. Never before in the history of
the city has such a program been pre-
sented; never before has such profus-
ion of flowers been seen here; never
did any resident dream that so many
extraordinarily pretty infants were
part and parcel of the community.
Promptly at 2;30 o'clock the Marine
band of sixteen pieces began playing
a slow march and soon the long, uneven
line of vehicles and children straight
ened out as the pageant started on its
march to the Casino auditorium. where
the "big show was to be held.
Inside the scene was one of splendor
and careful arrangement of flowers
that spoke we'll for the decorating
committee. On the platform, ready to
pass judgment on the merits of the
infants, were five of the best known
bachelors in the Santa Monica bay dis
trict, these having been chosen be-
cause of their lack of knowledge about
babies. The judges apparently liked
their jobs, and dandled the infants up
and down with much pleasure and
skill.
Special prizes for floats were offered
and special judges appointed to make
the awards. This task proved harder
than was expected, the numerous go
carts, carriages and vehicles of vari-
Gus descriptions coming under differ
ent headings, which made the selec-
tions difficult. However, after much
effort the awards We're distributed to
the satisfaction of all. except, per-
haps, one fond parent whose little
girl, seated in huge shoe and liter
ally smothered with dolls of all sorts
and descriptions. was totally overlooked
by the busy judges. The "Old Woman
in Shoe" certainly was deserving OF
better fate.

regulations relating to salutng were faith
fully observed. One day a soldier who was
leading an obstreperous mule to water, and
had both hands fully employed in the task
was met by the lieutenant. The soldier,
who had an occupation which demanded hif
undivided attention, failed to salute the mar
tinet. who Immediately called him to ao-
count for his remissness.
''Why do you not salute an officer when

"You hold this mule and I WILL" calmly
returned the man.
