DIES SEATED AT TABLE
Cotton Pioneer, Father of Eleven Chill
dren, and Sonora Diaz Pass
hWay
apeclal to The Herald.


SAN BERNARDINO, Jan. t9.-
Francis NJ. Wood, who has been
resident of Cotton for twenty-four
years and of California for fifty years
died suddenly at his Cotton home
death coming while he was seated at
his table. He was ~ years of age. He
was a native of Missouri and was the
father of eleven children, of whom all
are living He was regarded as one
of the substantial citizens of the val
ley and always engaged in ranching
as a pursuit.
Cotton is agitating the question of
extending it's city limits to take in
considerable strip of territory to the
west, including the Slower mountain
district and part of the Terrace. "A
mass meeting of the citizens will be
held tomorrow night Many of the peo-
pie in the affected territory are anxious
to come into the city.
The work of securing the right-of-
way for the cutoff to be built by the
San Bernardino Valley Traction COM
pany has been completed and the deeds
have been filed for record. 1t is eX-
pected that the moving of dirt by the
graders will be commenced the coming
week. The traction company has pur-
chased a large freight motor. which Will
be used in construction work and later
in handling freight. Some new cars
for lnterurban service nave also Deell
purchased and will be delivered soon
for use on the new Redlands line. The
daily excursion service over the lines
in the valley for the benefit of tourists
will be inaugurated February l.
Sonora Encarnacion DiaZ is dead at
her San Timoteo canyon home, aged
rs years. She was a native of Madrid
and was one of the few Spaniards of
pure Castilian blood left in this Sec
ton. She had lived in the home where
she died for fifty years, and left con-
siderable in the way of property inter-
ests in this city and Los Angeles. Her
husband, Don Manuel Diaz, died some
years ago. She was we'll known to the
earlier pioneers for her utter fearless
ness in the face of danger from hos
tile Indians, and frequently made the
dangerous trip by horseback to the
little church at San Salvador. There
were but half dozen white settlers
in the entire valley when she came
here.

Angora Spits in Disgust
A white Persian Angora was the first
cat to catch sight of the dogs. Every
hair in her body went up until she
looked like a snow mountain. Her tail
assumed enormous proportions and
from peaceful little ball of white she
was changed to a vertitable demon,
snarling and splitting.
She passed the word along the line
to the cast nearest her and a general
chorus of Meow, meow went up.
With each sound made by the cats
the dogs. grew more unmanag cable,
While the keeper was trying to pul:
them toward the door. Mrs. Jahnke
arrived then and she succeeded in
quieting the dogs.
"P-r-r-ince, P-r-r-ince" she called.
Lie down; lie down, you c-r-r-r-azy
dog"
And Prince obeyed. The keeper final
ly got them outside the door and then
Mrs. Jahnke explained.
"P-r-r-ince is just c-r-r-azy for cats
He would just tear all these cages tC
pieces if he could get at Them" she
said.
And no one who heard doubted hei
word. Every woman was quite con-
WINGED of the feeling, way down in the
heart of each dog, for cat.
There was a sigh of relief when wore
was brought back that the dogs were
securely chained again. Cream anG
beefsteak tenderly administered re-
stored each little pussy to it's norma
condition and the show went on in
quiet once more.

San Diego Lawmakers Attitude on
the Liquor Question Is
Responsible
Special to The Herald


SAN DIEGO, Jan. 19.-Those who are
back of the movement for the recall of
Councilman Reynolds of the Seventh
ward filed an amended petition this
morning with City Clerk Butler, or
rather they filed a supplement to the
original petition, bearing the names of
six additional citizens. the original
having been found TOO short.
The cleck now has ten days in which
to certify to the petition. which will
bring the time for presentation to the
council TO the date of the next meet
ing of the latter body.
Reynolds action on the liquor ques-
tiCn is responsible for the action of
this portion of his constituency. He
says that all of the signers opposed him
at the election and that the petition
amounts to nothing.

THINK LILYS CREW LOST
Vessel on Reef in the Widest Strip
Near Umpqua Is Probably
Dismembered
Special to The Herald.

SAN PEDRO, Jan. 19.-Fears for the
safety of the schooner Lucy, which
was reported on the rocks at Umpqua,
are over because of the report that
the vessel had arrived safe in port.
1t is now thought that the vessel
on the reef is perhaps the two-masted
schooner Lily, as she is long overdue.
The report is that the vessel on the
reef is a three-master, but in this the
observers may be mistaken
Old mariners here state that there
is little hope OF getting any of the
crew off alive, as the spot is one of
the widest on the coast. They think
the vessel is probably broken to pieces
ere this.

INVASION OF CANNES NEARLY
CAUSES PANIC
DemoraIizing Influence Enters Show
at Chutes, Hungry sor Blue Ribbon
Feline Lunch, but Women
Prevent Carnage

Few of the owners of pedigreed cats
who are reveling in the joys of their
first show at Chutes park know how
near their pets came to annihilation
yesterday afternoon.
Had it not been for the foresight of
leading officials who We're standing
near the entrance to the bowling alley
where the exhibit is being held, a panic
could not have been averted.
AS a red rag is to a bull, as Russian
is to a Jap, as the board of public
works is to the council, so is a cat to
bulldog.
1t makes no difference to bulldog
whether the cast comes from the Blue
eyed kennels" and has a fancy price OF
$1,000 attached to him or is common
barnyard cat that can't be given away.
1t makes no difference if it be an An
CORA with two blue eyes and perfect
hearing or a blue Persian with orange
eyes-a cat is a cat as far as a bulldog
can see or smell.
Adolph Jahnke. proprietor of the
Chutes cafe, next to the bowling alley,
has two splendid dogs-Prince, a blue
ribbon bulldog with several first prizes
to his credit, and Teddy, an equally
high bred Boston terrier.
The dogs have been chained in the
rear of the cafe and ever since the
first cat made it's appearance have been
tugging at the chains and trying in
every was to break them. Every effort
to reconcile the two animals to so much
cat has failed and yesterday when their
keeper loosed their chains for a mo-
ment the dogs made a dash for the
bowling alley.

Bolt for Cat Meat

Straight for the door they ram almost
knocking down a little girl who was
also bound for the cat show. Past
the Igorrote village with its twenty
five wild dog eaters" all hungry for
dog, the CANNES went with never a
pause.
At the entrance to the show they en-
countered the doorkeeper, whose bust
ness 1t is to secure tickets from all who
enter.
Prince and Teddy, autocrats that they
are, waived the formality of showing
tickets and bolted past with no thought
in their mind but cat cat, cat.
In hot pursuit followed their keeper
and behind him came Mrs Jahnke, the
dogs mistress. Just behind the door,
as the bulldog and his equally anxious
companion were within a few feet of
their prey, the keeper made a wild
dash for the chain which tied them to-
gether, and with a mighty effort sue
ceeded in holding them back.
"Oh the cat!" "Our pets!" "Those
awful dogs! Take them away; take
them away!" came from the women
who We're near the entrance
The building was crowded with men,
women and children who had come TO
admire the cats.
In the farthest end of the hall j. G.
Girton, general manager of the show,
was exhibiting cats and giving a lee
ture on the various fine points. At a
glance he saw what had caused the
commotion and he also saw that the
dogs had been caught.
With much presence of mind he went
on with his lecture and succeeded in

SALMON NEEDS SALT WATER
Confined in Lake, with No Approach
to the Sea, the Fish Rapidly
Become Dwarfed,

The name salmon Is given in Eng
land and all eastern states to Large,
trout-like fish which lives In the sea,
chiefly about the mouths Of rivers,
and which enters the streams to spawn,
running for considerable distance
up the stream and returning to the
sea after the act of spawning is &C.
complished, says a writer in the Pa
cific Monthly. The old males become
somewhat distorted, especially through
the frightening OF the jaws, but the
changes with age and season are not
much greater than in any large trout
The true salmon, like the true trout,
is black spotted. 1t is called in sci
ence Salmo salar, and along with the
true trout 1t belongs to the genus
Salmo. There is only one species Of
Atlantic salmon; it is found on both
sides of the ocean, and on both sides
1t becomes sometimes land-locked and
dwarfish when it is shut up in lake
and when it cannot or does not go to
the sea.

The "Mechanicai Dog. -

While it is unnecessary to point out
that, without the utmost confidence In
the efficiency and staying" powers of
the airship, the promoters Of this
epoch-making expedition would not
undertake 1t, yet this confidence has
not been Of the blind sort that has
caused them to hurl caution to the
winds. Two supplemental provisions
have been made for insuring the sue
cess of the expedition and the lives
Of the explorers. The most important
of these Is the motor sledge which
is to be carried in the car of the air
ship and which, 1t Is confidently be-
lieved, will prove of the utmost value
in the event of accident to the airship
at any stage of the voyage. There are
two of these sledges, propelled by gas
ollne motors, They have six-horse-
power each. The motor is mounted on
runners, like those of the ordinary
sled, and the power is transmitted by
chain to a large front wheel which
has breadth enough to serve the pur-
pose of snowshoe and the periphery
Of which Is studded with projecting
spikes to furnish the gripping power
These mechanical dogs" weigh 225
pounds each and can be carried by
two men. They are so constructed
that they can be knocked down and
assembled quickly and when such OBJ
stacles are met as they cannot over
come they can be taken apart and
hauled by the explorers over the hard
places
In all previous explorations the
Eskimo dog has been the traction
mainstay of the explorers. While the
canine OF the north has proved of the
greatesr assistance In reaching high
attitudes he has many drawbacks; but
from Lis mechanical successor Mr..
Wellman expects, II compelled to for
sake his ship, to derive all the adj
vantages of the real dog and none
Of the disadvantages. The motors used
In these novel sledges are air cooled,

Recent tests at sea have heightened
the possible communication distance
to more than 1000 miles without re-

part of the expeditions apparatus,
and one Of the five men who will
make the trip in the airship is an

At Hammerfest, Norway, a point in
touch with the Atlantic cable, the first
wireless station has been established.
Station No. will be at the base of
the expedition on Danes island, and
wireless station No. 8 will be in the
airship. The aerial" which on land
and on sea-going ships is a mast, in
this case will be a wire suspended

power 1t will be the greatest project
of the kind except the combined works

and transmitted to factories in the
heart Of the agricultural center Of the
nation. The dam will be in sight Of
the three states OF Iowa, Illinois and
Missouri, the legislatures of each state
having adopted resolutions approving
the work and promising all possible
assistance. The estimated cost of the
work will be 100000, which is 800

er capacity of 10000 horse power. The
cost of supplying power, including all
fixed charges, maintenance, operation
and all expenses, Is closely estimated
at eight dollars per horsepower-year
