operates an elaborate apparatus in the
stewards room, by which the attend
ants on duty see at once. even among
the multitude Of apartments. which
passenger is desiring attendance.
This ship is provided with a lounge
and library. In style these two rooms
are influenced by a revived apprecia-
ton Of the Louis Sixth period. The
lounge is finished in mahogany. white.
and gold. The woodwork of the
library is of sycamore stained to a
silver grey. The furnishings are in

Of the various apartments is almost

an entire contrast in tine architecture!

broadly. the prevailing aspect Of the
public rooms in the "Lusitania" is one
Of lightness and brightness. the out

enamels and gilt. In the "Mauretania"
on the other hand. costly woods. in

for decorative effect, producing what

Both schemes OF decoration are sue
F cessful in their own way. and prefer
cnce for the one or the other viii
differ according to the taste o. tenn
permanent Of the individual. Some
more detailed Idea Of the principal
rooms in the "Mauretania" may be
given. The dining saloon and upper
saloon are in oak in the Francis !.
stvIe, beautifully carved. In the main
entrance hall and staircase the design
is Italian Renaissance. carried out in
French walnut. and the same style in
tho Same wood. with the addition Of

| Equal taste. and not much less eX-
I penditure. have been bestowed on the
second class accommodation, in which
the dining saloon is in oak after the
Georgian period. the drawing room in
maple. in n modified Louis XVI. style.
the smoking room in mahogany, and
( the lounge and entrance in
polished oak. A new feature in the
seccnd-cIass accommodation is a large
= deck shelter. which must add greatly

cold or stormy weather. In their de-
gree the third-class passengers have
also noon literally dealt with both in

tiers. the latter being exceptionally

nicely furnished in polished ash.

with the "Lusitania," exceeds that YES
sci slightly in size. so that the palm Of

world has ever seen is transferred to

internal decoration. Probably no YES

FOR OLD PIONEER
Father Junipero Sierra to Be COM

Called Santa Lucia
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
WATSONVILLE. July S.-Formal an
nouncement will be made to the Native
session at Watsonville beginning to-
morrow, that the committee having the
matter in charge has succeeded in hav-
ing, the government board of geograph-
ic names confer the name of Califor-
MAS pioneer settler and noted mission
airy, Father Junipero Sierra, on noun
tain in the state of California.
The Native Daughters advocate the
retention of historic and characteristic
names for places and geographic
features in California, and they de-
sire that the pioneers be honored when
ever possible by having their names
attached to geographical features in
the state.
At the Grand Parlor of 1905, Lilly o.
Reichling Dyer, founder of the order,
introduced resolutions to have promi-
nent mountain peak named in honor
of Father Junipero Sierra, California's
earliest pioneer. A committee consist
ing of Mrs. Dyer (chairman), Mrs.
Cora B. Sifford and Miss Harriet Lee
was appointed last year to have the
resolutions carried into effect.
The matter was taken UP at Wash
ington with the United States board
on geographic names, of which Henry
Gannett is chairman, and after con-
siderable correspondence the board
selected as an appropriate landmark
for the distinction one located In the
field of Father Juniperos labors,
namely, the highest peak in the Santa
Lucia range. This peak was also
known as Santa Lucia" but hence
forth it's name will be Mount Junipero
Sierra. and as such it will be designated
in future on the maps. Mount Jump
ero Sierra is about 5000 feet in height,
is located some 40 miles from Monterey
in a southeast direction, and is one
of the notable landmarks in that part
of California.

By Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, July 8.-By the re-
vocation of the passenger certificates
of the steamboat City Of Traverse, the
government today dealt heavy blow
to the alleged gambling syndicate of
the city of Chicago.
The City of Traverse leaves Chicago
each day and anchors in Lake Michi-
gan near the lines of intersection of
the states of Illinois, Indiana and
Michigan, it is said, and conducts
gambling operations. Information con-
cerning the results at the various
tracks of the country are received by
wireless telegraph and the steamboat,
1t is further alleged. is operated as a
floating pool room.
The authorities of Chicago have en-
deavored to suppress the evil, but their
efforts have been futile. Finally
Mayor ,Busse appealed to the govern
ment authorities to take steps which
would put an end to the operations Of
the steamer.
Today the acting secretary of the de-
partment of commerce and labor in
structed Collector of Customs Ames
at Chicago that if the facts were as
represented he should cancel the
vessels license at once.
This involves the cancellation of the
steamers passenger certificate as we'll.
This action is taken under authority
of the revised statutes of the United
States which specifically provide that
a license granted to any vessel shall
not be considered in force any longer
than the vessel is engaged in the en-
ployment for which she was specifically
licensed

Alfred Dreyfus, the former captain OF

charge of treason to imprisonment on
Devils island, was to retire, accepting

The playground commission yesterday
asked the city council to set aside fifteen
acres of land comprising part of the
Brooklyn Heights, for a playground.
1t was also requested that part of the
reservoir site be set aside for park pur-
poses.
The council willingly granted the re.
quest and instructed the city attorney
to draw up the necessary ordinance.
The commission had already been given
the use of two of the seventeen acres, but
as it was not level ground this was of
