A PERIL GUS
ADVENTURE
J.Louis Horner Rescued
From Face of a
Preclpice.

Clinging with only a finger hold on
the steep face of the cliff, the surf
foaming over the sharp rocks far below
him and the angry terms beating around
his head, j. Louis Horner faced
ghastly death for several long minutes
yesterday. He was one OF the party of
young men on holiday cruise to Rab-
bit Island and with several comrades
had scaled the high peak OF the crater
in search of tern nests, hundreds of
which are to be found on the mauka
sides of the rim. The party had scat
tered, only one staying with Horner on
the peak, but the attention of all
within hearing was called to his peril
Gus position within a few moments
after ne had begun the descent of the
rocks.
He had only got few feet below
the rim when the shahng face of the
cliff gave beneath his feet and with a
cry for help he began to slide down
toward the edge overhanoing the sea
two hundred feet below. Grasping and
clutching at the smooth rock surface
he succeeded in catching two fingers in
a tiny crack and there he chung, not
daring to move or even call so slight
was the hold between him and
eternity.
AS soon as possible others We're at
hand to help him, but he was beyond
reach and none dared go down to him,
as to do so was to go into equal danger
and possibly be the cause of precipitat
ing a double disaster. An attempt to
pass a dog chain down was a failure,
the chain being several feet short.
In the meantime w. A. Bryan had
gone to the landing place to get rope
from the ship, but for some minutes
his frantic signaling was unnoticed by
those on board Their attention was at
last attracted by double gun-shot and
a pantomine of hauling in rope con-
veyed the news that a line was needed.
This was brought ashore and a suitable
length cut off and rushed up the crater.
In the meantime one of the watchers
on the rim thought of the fshline in
his pocket and this was speedily
doubled up and passed down to Horner,
whose strength was by this time nearly
With this line he was
helped back to safety and the signal
sent to the ones toiling upward with
the rope that all was well.
Mr. Horner was a little shaken by
the experience but is otherwise him
self. He is one of the official stenog-
raphers of the First Circuit Court and
much too good a man to lose his life
for the sake of even ornithological re-
search.

(Mail Special to the Advertiser.)
WASHINGTON, D. c., March lit
now looks as though the present Con
gress would become great reform
Congress. There has been so much agi-
tation over the measures which Presi-
dent Roosevelt wants enacted into law
and which Congress has been resisting
that minor attention has been paid to
the economies which the House es-
pecially has been inaugurating. These
economies are not only in reducing ap-
propriations, but in enactIng restrictive
legislation. which will cheek officials
and prevent their spending the govern
ment S money lavishly.
The Senate. thus far, has taken little
part in that direction but it gladly will
when the appropriation bills get over
its way. The House has the first say
with those supply bills. For weeks and
weeks hearings have been conducted
in the House appropriations commit
tee and in three or four other com
mittees of the House that are prepar-
ing appropriation or supply bills. These
hearings are generally scmi-exeeutlve
hearings and but little regarding them
gets out till the hearings are published
in full. But the tendency in all of
them has been to question government
officials so as to unearth wherein there
has been unwarranted extravaganza
and it is unfortunately true that there
are many such cases coming to light.
A CRYING ABUSE.
Last year Congress began the work
by enacting provision on one of the
bills, making 1t a serl-
Gus offense to commit the government
to expenditures which had not been
authorized by Congress. But, care
fully as the law was supposed to have
been drawn. the keen officials who
have developed great cleverness in
finding WAYS to get around Congress,
did violate it with impunitv and came
up this wear, unabashed, asking for as
large deficiency appropriations as ever.
Now Congress has enacted another and
a severer law against entering upon ex-
penditures which it has not authorized
and the President is expected TO sign IT.

to appoint me a trustee of the State
school at Whittier. at the present time
there are 26S boys there. We find from
the teachers and the samples of the
boys work that they are ahead of the
average of public school pupils. While
there are some who are little unman-
ageable, as a rule we have very little
difficulty in keeping them within rea.
sonable bounds.
''At the present time we are endeav-
oring to secure proper parole officer
whose particular duty will be to find
suitable homes for these boys. The
law provides for Catholics and non
Catholics to be sent to homes accord
ingly.
There are many pathetic sides to
this work. Some boys have parents
living in Los Angeles, sixteen miles
from the school, who have never taken
sufficient interest in them to visit them
at the school.

H0noluiu-the best peOpie-who are

cance.

there is nothing interests me more than

ment has been exempt from most lavish
expenditures of public money. Could
the facts have been brought out in the
summer months, when Washington is
quiet and there is little newspaper ma
terial here, the disclosures in the APP
preparations committee would have at
tracted almost as much attention as the
disclosures in the postoffice depart
ment a few years ago. There has, to
be sure, not been such criminal viola.
tions of law, but there has been quito
as much extravaganza and it has been
quite as widespread.

clans will gather items about these
things and work them over during the
Congressional campaign. Then they
may excite the voters somewhat. Ordi-
narily it is supposed that the auditors
Of the Treasury viii stop expenditures
that are not specifically authorized,
but the evil has rested largely with
Congress in making appropriations for
lump sums. Soon after the Spanish
war heads and chiefs of departments
discovered that lump sum appropria-
tions were very convenient, far mere
easy to handle to their liking than
specific appropriations for given pur-
poses. They asked Congress for these
lump appropriations and Congress
granted them with generosity.
The scientists in the agricultural de-
partment were given goodly sums, for
instance, with which to conduct gen
eral Investigations and they went ouE
investigating all over the world. The
chiefs of the navy department were
given large sums, under general terms
for naval expenditures. and when an
appropriation for a given purpose was
too small, they transferred money from
some more general fund.
So the thing has gone on. The epor-
nous expenditures for the army and
navy are in some part due to that prac-
tice. Scandals grew in the depart
ments that were too careless. The
minority party in both branches of
Congress was weak and, under sue
cessive crushing defeats, showed little
spirit in crying out against the abuses
Neither Congress nor the country paid
much attention when they did protest.

TRADERS CLIENTS TO MEET.
VIII Have Plans for Incorporation Es
planned to Them.


The olicyholders of the Traders
Insurance Company of Chicago will
meet at the Jewish Temple at 2 O'Clock
tomorrow afternoon and have explained
to them the plan for Incorporation
adopted by the committee of seven last
week. 1t is expected that at this time
Chairman w. F. Humphrey of the COM
mittee will be able to make a state
ment as to the financial condition of
the defunct Traders Company
Chairman Humphrey telegraphed to
the home Office of the Traders Com
pany early last week asking for per-
mission to examine the books of the
company. Receiver Byron L. Smith
wired in answer: Confer with Ad-
juster Moore. Oakland, concerning in
formation desired"
The pressure of business has been SO
great that Chairman Humphrey has
not yet made the trip to Oakland for
the purpose of comforting with Moore
He will probably arrange for a meeting
with Moore today and go over the
books
If the committee is allowed to look
over the books of the Traders Insur-
ance Company 1t will be able to deter
mine the sincerity of the compromise
offer of Thomas Bates, the attorney
representing several of the wealthy
stockholders of the defunct organiza-
ton. Such an investigation may pos
sibly lead to the acceptance of COM
promise settlement, as Bates claims the
stockholders he represents will do all
in their power to see that the insured
are given square deal
The plan adopted by the committee
OF seven last Thursday is the incorpo-
ration of all the policy y-holders and
the selection of a board of directors
The policy holders will. If the plan is
carried through. turn over their poll
cies to the directors for collection and
settlement.
