VICTIM OF DRINK FOUND
DEAD IN ELYSIAN PARK
Bottles of Alcohol Lie Beside Dece.
dent, Who Was Known to Police
Authorities as a white
Liner"

The body of f. A. Brockway, sup
posed to be a solicitor for the Los
Angeles Rubber Stamp company, was
found near the Solano avenue reser-
voir in Elysian park yesterday after
noon.
The man had evidently been dead
several days, and from an examination
by a physician it was ascertained that
he had died of alcoholism. Near the
body were two quart bottles, one filled
with alcohol and the other about half
full,
II is believed that Brockway, who
was what is known as white liner"
had purchased the alcohol and gone
to the reservoir Enclosure to drink it.
Death is supposed to have come to
him suddenly after he had consumed
part of one bottle. The body was re-
moved to the morgue of John Button
on North Main street.

around the neck and proceeded to
pommel him. Suddenly awakening,

FEAR PESTILENCE UNLESS
SEA BIRDS ARE PROTECTED
Audubon Societies Plead for More Aid
from Government to Save
Feathery Scavengers.

NEW YORK, Jan. 20.-For a OF war
dens along the hundred miles OF Pacffc
coast recently resolved as a bird refuge
millions OF water fowl may suffer death 10
themselves and their young at the nesting
season, it was declared here today. With
thousands of acres of such breeding
hayens, which they have previously op-
tanned and must patrol with hardy ana
expert men. the National Association OF
Audubon Societies finds itself today IN
able to extend Its bird guard over the
newly acquired stretch OF inaccessible sea
coast.
Both men and boats Of the staunohest
sort are required for the p~erilous work
of patroling the reefs and rocks OF the
nesting birdie in all winds and weather.
Beyond paving the wardens a dollar a
month for the purpose of their noinlnai
control, the Federal authorities have leit
the entire burden OF maintaining G1his
little army Of bird guards upon the Ma
+ional Association Of Audubon Societies.
Just what New York city would soon be-
come without its street cleaning depart
ment. o~rnithologists asserted here today,
the entire seaboard regions OF America
viii soon be. If the water fowl are al
lowed to approach extinction much longer
As scavengers the sea birds are the only
agents that stand between the people OF
this country and pestilenee, they declare.
Once the birds become 80 few as to allow
the coast refuse to accumulate. the entire
country will stand in grave danger OF pe-
ing swept by plague.

Pull Together.

While Mrs. Ida Smoot Dusenberry, a
sister of United States Senator Reed
Smoot, of Utah, was praising the tenets
Of the Mormon faith before an audience
composed of followers of that belief at

people heard her. She does not believe
in polygamy but is a defender of the
Mormon faith, and during her talk said
that polygamy Is not praotlsed any
longer as an article Of Mormon faith, and
that moreover polygamous members OF the
church are expelled and have been ever
since the elders voted to abolish belief
in polygamy from the beliefs of the
church, Mrs. Dusenberry is studying kin
dergarten work at Columbia University.
Mrs. D~usenberry, among other things,
quoted a person who was not a friend,
as saying that 1.-The Mormon Church
is growing because they all pull
together. So | say we are grow
ing stronger because we pull together,
knowing we have found the truth. We
have suffered, aye, suffered more than
tongue can tell, and we have struggled
But ia suffering and in struggle we AVE
grown stronger, we rave grown better,
we have received more faith"
