MAN AND WOMAN HURT
BY MOVING STREET CAR

Mr.. and Mrs. L. Thiele, who live at
965 West Fourth street. were taken to
the receiving hospital at the First
street station with injuries received by
being thrown from an Glendale car
at Third and Figueroa streets. 10
o'clock Friday night.
From the story told at the police
station 1t appears that Thiele asked
the conductor, whose number is SS4
to stop at the Fourth street crossing.
The car carried them on to Third street
and came almost to a standstill. As
they were about to step to the street
the car started forward suddenly and
they were both thrown violently to the
ground. Mrs. Thiele received two
inch laceration OF the scalp and her
husband a three-inch iaceration and a

ing on the canvas the picture of the
governors mansion and scenes in Sitka,
showing the capital of Alaska, the beau
tiful villages in the coast region of the
country and the city of Juneau and
hunting scenes. All these were briefly
explained in a conversational style.
The lecture was a good lesson in
physical, political and commercial
geography. 1t showed to those interested
the geology, zoology and botany, speak
ing of the country as a great field for
the naturalist as well as for the
hunter, fishermen, miner and CONNER
cial speculator.
In his lecture Mr.. Lee stated that in
the summer time the people were
obliged to wear double suits OF clothes
to protect themselves from the ravages
of the mosquitoes.
Among the trophies thrown on the
canvas was the largest caribou ever
shot, according to scientific authorities,
which was killed on the Keanal penin-
sula in 1898. Indians had hunted 1t for
four seasons, but their rifles were not
of sufficient range to bring it down.
Mr.. Lees second shot brought 1t down
at distance of $50 yards 1t showed

DISAPPEARANCE IS
UNSOLvED MYSTERY
Relatives Fear Some Harm Has Be-
fallen Young Man Who Left
Linda Vista Last
Monday

Disappearing from Linda Vista and
writing to his relatives at that place,
inclosing a postoffice key, after he had
been absent four days, Arthur Yockum,
secretary and treasurer of the Linda
Vista Improvement associa ion, is the
object of a search instituted by his
grandparents, who believe he is either
the victim of an alluring sWindle or
mentally unbalanced.
Monday he left home without word
of explanation or information as to
his destination. Having been erratic in
the past, little was thought of the mat
ter till three days had elapsed and no
word had been received from him.
Then the local police were notified and
they kept the matter a secret till 1t
leaked out today.
The search was continued without OBJ
tanning the least clew as to his where
abouts. He seemed to nave suddenly
dropped from the earth and a tragedy
of the hills was feared. The relatives
were on the point of instituting a thor
ough search of the canyons, piercing
the mountain range near Linda Vista,
with the fearful hope Of finding his re-
mains.
The search was cut short by the arr
rival of letter postmarked Los Ange-
les and containing a brief note that
the writer had inclosed a key to the
family postofflce box and, though no
name was signed to the note, It was
the key the young man carried away
with him on his sudden departure.
The relatives are still in the dark as
to his whereabouts and the mysterious
letter increases their anxiety.

THROUGH LECTURE
Naturalist and Scientist Makes Inter-
estlng Talk on Alaska Under AUS
pices of Young Mems Chris
tan Association

The stereopticon lecture on Alaska
by Henry Lee, the great hunter and
naturalist, under the auspices of the
Y. NJ. C. A. last night in Blanchard hall
was interesting and instructive to the
large audience. Notwithstanding the
poor focus on the canvas much of .he
time.
Mr. Lee prefaced his lecture by stat
ing that as a general rule people did not
enter the heart of the vast country of
Alaska, but only gathered their infor-
nation from the exterior portions or
the easiest approaches, using their i'm
agination, which was detrimental 10
actual facts. He explained that 1t re-
quired much perseverance, hardship and
study to accomplish the desired effects
OF the beautiful day and night scenes
that prevailed among the mountains,
canyons and waters of that rugged and
grand country.
In a clear, distinct but not heavy
voice Mr.. Lee explains his subjects in
very candid and effecting manner, en-
tirely devoid of personal aggrandiso-
ment and yet with characteristic
familiarity with his subject.
A map was first thrown on the can
vas showing the general outline Of
Alaska. From this the scenes were
changed to mountains, canyons and
waters, and then to beautiful floral
views, which were followed by scenes
of animal life. Very impressive scenes
were those of the prospectors in the
different stages OF their journey from
their CHEEKY farewell at the start up
to the disconsolate group forming a
council discussing the advisa bility Of a
return.

and the wanton killing Of seals, throw

PlC0 AND GRAND AVENUE
STREET CARS COLLIDE

Some excitement was caused by a
rear end collision at Fourth and Broad

Heights car No. 301, north bound, was
standing on the south side of the cross
ing unloading passengers when the
Grand avenue car approached. The
motorman applied the brake. but it re-
fused to work. But for the slowness
of the moving car caused by the traffic
between Fourth and Fifth streets a
serious accident would have been in
eyitable. Except for a severe shaking

committee has five members, of which
the guiding spirit is President X. Abiko
of the association. Goruke Ikeda is
secretary Both these Japanese are
from San Francisco.
Discuss Alien Act
The principal topic which has brought
the Japanese together Is not the school
question, but a bill before the Califor-
ma legislature preventing all foreign
ers from holding property here. This
the Japanese regard as a slap at them.
thousands OF Japanese hold property
here, but Peter Suski, owner of a pho
tographic studio at First and Main,
said last night that his countrymen
were under the impression that this
law would apply to those already hold
ing property; in other words that it was
retroactive. When told 1t could ap-
ply only to future investments and
concerned all nations as we'll as the
japanese, he said that explanation
might be new phase on the situation.
we are only talking matters over so
1ar' said Suski, "and it may be next
week before we will have made up our
minds what to recommend"
The organization feels keenly the
proposed anti-alien property statute.
AS leading Japanese expressed it, there
are hundreds of Japanese in California
who have practically renounced the mi
kado, have their families and relatives
here and wish to spend their remaining
days IN America. These seek invest
ments here and want their capital pro-
tected. They claim that If the bill ad-
vances they will communicate with the
Japanese consul in San Francisco and
the Japanese ambassador in Washing
ton.
Talk of War Is Bosh
All talk Of war between Japan and
Americ is laughed at by the Japa-
nese who are in session at this confer
ence.
X. Miyazaki, a Presbyterian minister
who is the delegate from WatsonVille,
said last night:
There may be some foolish people
who talk about war, but we can laugh
at them. We Japanese in America
would seek anything but war. Our in
terests are here and we have our homes
and our families here. We want to
preach the gospel to our people and
that Is what we are doing.
II believe that any question which
may arise between the japanese and
the American people will be settled
peacefully. That is the only way it
should be settled"
