Special to The Herald.
SAN PEDRO, April 22.-Not in the
history of several years at this port
has there been so small a number of
vessels as today discharging cargoes
here. Only eighteen large sized craft
were lying in the harbor this morning.
OF that number at least six are prac-
tically unloaded and will sail as soon
as orders are received. The reason of
this is attributed largely to the eX-
citing time at San Francisco, where
most of the vessels are owned or man.
aged. 1t is working a hardship on San
Pedro, for the reason that there are
enough laboring men regularly en-
ployed here to keep at least thirty
vessels busy The result is many idle
men with no prospect of work for sew
eral days 1t is expected that with
work beginning at San Francisco and
renewed activity in traffic here there
will be plenty of employment for all
in a week.

Altadena petitioners, were in Los An
geles today in the interest of their re-
spective neighborhoods. They expected
to appear before the board of super
visors in support of the proposed storm
sewer districts, but found that owing
to the absence of Supervisor Patterson
the board would probably not hold a
session until the middle of the week.
After considerable difficulty in getting
the matter of boundaries Strengthened
out the residents of the east side are
now ready to have the matter pushed
by the supervisors and an election
called. The Altadenans have not yet
begun the canvass required but will do
so very shortly. The boundaries of the
Altadena district will be very simple.
and it's limits will no doubt be Lake
avenue on the east, the Pasadena city
limits on the south, the Arroyo Seco
on the west and the mountains on the
north. No serious opposition has de-
veloped to either of the two proposed
districts.
Mail From Frisco
Yesterday arrived the first lot of mail
from San Francisco since the earth
quake. 1t was a curious mixture. All
sorts of paper had been used on which
to write the messages of good tidings,
wrapping paper, portions of -four sacks,
scraps picked up from the streets and
most of the communications did not
have postage stamps attached. But
Uncle Sam forwarded the letters"
just the same, recognizing the emer-
gency, and when the bundle reached
Pasadena Postmaster Wood and AS
sistant Postmaster Ramel Immediately
proceeded to deliver the anxiously
awaited messages in person. Aside
from the slowly arriving kilograms
these were the first real news of a per-
sonal nature from the stricken city.

differing lee ElOes.
Never shall a man who has once
watched the slaughter OF Il fur seal
herd forget the CHASTITY sight. From
the deck of the blunt noscd sealing
steamer you can count thousands upon
thousands of seal families stretched
out on the glistcning Ice foes the dark
notified bodies of the adults standing
out in high relief against the blue white
ness of their floating homes, while the
snow white fur of the baby seal blends
almost imperccptibly into the back
ground. Out from the ship, hurrying
over the Ice, rush nearly 200 men Of
the crew, each armed with an iron
tipped club. From near and far go up
the agonZcd cries OF the terrified seals.
Hopping along over the ice the adults
rush frantically for the water, doing
their best to hurry their young with
them.
In most eases their way of escape is
cut off by the scalers With a blow OF
the iron bound club the skull of tho
seal pup is crushed, its blood staining
the Wilderness of the foe, while its
parents are allowed to get away in
safety. Technical World Magazine.
