ENJOY RIDE THROUGH THE
ORANGE GROVES
Pacific Electric Company Extends
Courtesles to Newspaper Men,
Who Are Greatly Pleased
With Excursion

The Utah Press association was yes
terday the guest of the Pacific Elec-
trio and enjoyed a ride through the
orange groves to Alhambra, Baldwin s
ranch, Pasadena and the Ostrich farm.
From the little exclamations of de-
light that they gave as they looked
upon sights so familiar to Southern
California people, but new to them, It
can truly be said that they were hav-
ing the time of their lives.
The start was made at 10 o'clock
from the Pacific Electric depot, with
about forty persons aboard a parlor
car in charge of Harry Kneedler At
Arcadia lunch was served picnic fash
icn." The party arrived In Pasadena
about 1880 o'clock and spent two hours
automobile riding about the Crown
city short stop was made at Hotel
Raymond and about forty minutes
spent at the ostrich farm.
VIII Go to Catalina
Today the party will leave for Cat
alma as the guests of the Wilmington
Transportation company, and will re-
turn in time to catch the 8 o'clock train
for home over the Salt Lake road.
Many of the visitors have been so
charmed with the beauties Of Southern
California that they will not go home
l.
main will go up Mount Lowe on Mon
day and will take in" the Fiesta on
Tuesday.
"I have been to Los Angeles before"
said Secretary P. p. Jenson, but 1
never tire of meeting the people here.
They have always extended the glad
hand to me and are now doing so to
the members of the club. These little
excursions bring Salt Lake and Los
thn
people always return home with good
word for the Angel City. I assure you
that am having one of the best times
of my life"
D. P. Felt, president of the club, said
that he is especially pleased with the
different classes of people who have
extended a welcome. He said that he
expected to be entertained by the news
paper men, but that he was surprised
to find the chamber of commerce and
private citizens taking such interest in
the club.
Feel Kindly Disposed
1--WE have certainly had a good time" :"
said A. w. Casey, treasurer Of the
club. every one of us has a more
kindly feeling toward Southern Cali
fornia than we ever had before. Some
OF US expected to find San Bernardino
and those towns behind the times, but
on the contrary, they are as enterpris-
ing cities as can be found anywhere" 3"
"It is quite an outing for me-" said
Miss Jesperson. 1.-THE people could not
have done more to make us have a
good time. like the people here very
much and feel that 1 should like to
make this my home. / find the news
paper men and women here bright, but
very congenial."
''This is a great place." said Joseph
Bull. 'I thought the people so far
south would be more like southern
ers. had the impression they were
lazy and easily satisfied. Happily
found that my impressions were
wrong"

STRIKING BEAUTY
VISITS PRISONER
ACCOMPANIED THE ALLEGED
STOCK THIEF TO COAST
While He PAGES RestIessIy In His
Cell In City Jail She Passes
Lonesome Days at Long
Beach

While mysterious young woman Of
striking beauty passes lonesome days
at Long Beach, Thomas A. Blake, who
accompanied her to California, PAGES
restlessly back and forth in his mar
row cell at the city Jail.
Il absolutely refuse to see anyone"
said Blake fretfully to the jailer yes
terday afternoon. 'I am here because
of-well, slip, but 1 don't propose to
have the/name of a woman dragged
in the mud with mine."
Blake has lost much flesh since his
arrest Tuesday afternoon. He has told
his story to the detectives and now
says that he has nothing more to say
until his return to Boston, where he will
be charged with the larceny of $4,000
worth of mining stock from Horn
blower & Weeks, brokers of that city.
Detectives Refuse Information
The handsome woman who braved
public opinion to flee with the rather
stout, red-faced clerk is supposed to
be Mrs. May Richardson, young
divorcee of Boston's fashionable set. AL
though the detectives have her name
and pedigree. they refuse to give any
information concerning her. 1t is be-
lieved that she gave tip to the de-
tectives, whereby they were enabled to
recover a portion of the stock claimed
to have been purloined by Blake.
I'VE propose to shield this woman as
best we can," was the declaration of
Detective Captain Flammer the other
day. And pursuant to that policy,
Mrs Richards" as she registered at
the hotels, has been free from observa-
ton and permitted to see Blake when
ever she pleased. But her visits have
been made in such way that she has
not been subjected to the inquisitive
glances that met her on the day follow
ing Blake's arrest.
She is living in retirement at Long
Beach, and although many efforts have
been made to see her she has dis
couraged any attempt at making her
acquaintance.
Inspector Morrisey of Boston will
reach this city Tuesday or Wednesday
and win take Blake back to the east.
There Blake win stand trial for his
alleged larceny.
Trusted clerk for the brokerage firm
for six years, Blake is said to have been
stealing for a year past for the pur-
pose of specializing in the stock market.
His fair companion will doubtless re-
turn with him.

Forced to Pay 500 Because
of Inhumanty

Joe McClarity, driver for the City
Rubbish company, was arrested by an
officer of the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals at Third and
Spring streets yesterday morning. The
man was found beating one of the ami
mails of his team with a whip which
had wire for a lash. The horse was
bleeding at the shins and knees from
the force of fall in being pulled up
too quickly. The bodies of the equines
were for the most part all gashed by
the severe way in which they were
treated, according to the story of the
humane officers.
McClarity was arrested by officer T..
d. Mitchell and taken before Justice
Chambers court. The justice found the
man guilty and fined him 500. McClar-
ity telephoned for his employer and the
latter secured the release of the

with not only everything you have or

HERO OF INDIAN FIGHT

Forsyth was not long III dlvining the
true situation. He was surrounded by
immense numbers of bloodthirsty red
skins, which afterward proved to be
Cheyennes and Sioux over 900 strong.
Colonel Forsyth and his little band
kept up the fighting until dark, making
a third charge at the close Of the day.
The losses in Forsyth's band had been
severe. Every horse and mule had
been killed in it's tracks. Lieutenant
Beecher was killed. four scouts were
dead in their pits, volunteer surgeon,
DR.. Moore. was dead, and sixteen
scouts were wounded.
Colonel Forsyth had two wounds. one
shattered leg bone. II was evident
that the distressed party would have
to stand a siege. They were a hundred
miles from the nearest post. Fort Wal
lace, and no other help was to be look
ed for. The ammunition supply, thanks
TO the self control of the men, was
ample for some days. or bread there
was lack, but steaks from the slaugh-
tered animals would keep off famine
for days. The gallant leader said TO his
survivors. 1--WE will win the fight yet
or sell our lives dearly I'm the attempt"
Under his orders a spring was SCOOP
ed out in the sand. parapet was made
all around the island and the bodies
of the dead horses and their saddles
were placed so as TO stop the bullets.
Two scouts volunteered to try and
steal through the Indian lines during
the night and summon aid, and they
left at midnight, crawling stealthily
the first two miles.
The following day the Indians kept
up hot fire on the imprisoned scouts
and made several attempts to draw
them from cover. On the second night
OF the siege two more volunteers start
ed out for relief to insure communica-
ton with Fort Wallace IN case the
first two had met with disaster and tho
second should be more fortunate. The
third day the savages kept up their
demonstrations. but made no effort TO
charge the camp. On Sept. % the In
dams disappeared without Offering fur
Their battle.
On the night OF the 21st the scouts
that had left the island the first night
of the battle reached Fort Wallace.
Prompt action was taken by the COM
mandant of the post and a mounted
force pushed through to the camp by
the 25th in time to save the lives Of the
heroes.
