Her Sacramento Street
Home

Mrs. Emily Newton entertained at a
halloween party given last evening
at her home in. Sacramento street. The
house was lighted only with the
ghostly candle light and the decora-
tions were in keeping with the weird
occasion. In the hallway great masses
of autumn foliage shaded the twinkling
jack o. lanterns and in the reception
room. the large yellow pumpkins were
an effective color against the greenery.
Mrs. Newton and her guests were all
disguised in halloween costumes. The
time honored games of the mysterious
night were enjoyed before an elaborate
supper was served at midnight. About
score of guests were present at the

.ISLAIS CREEK IS
!. SUBJECT OF INQUIRY
Questioners Desire to Know
How Submerged Lands Be-
came Private Property
TideIand Commissioners Sold
Realty Covered With Water
Thirty Feet Deep

The Islais creek inland harbor asso-
citation has received number of in
quiries from interior points in regard
TO the water depths and land titles at
India basin. The questioners for the
most part desire to know how it came
about that the submerged land passed
into the hands of private parties.
By members of the association it is
stated that these submerged lands were
sold several years ago by the then ex-
listing board of tide land commission
ers, who had been given full power
by the legislature to sell such parcels
as they desired. The sales continued
until land submerged to as great a
depth as 80 feet had passed into pri-
yate hands. Since the proper surveys
have been made the folly of this pro-
cedure has become apparent, and 1t is
now the intention of the people to buy
back the submerged lands which were
alic<ated.
Many of these lots" lie at the bot
tom of water over which ships of the
greatest draft can pass At the
present time the City of Peking, a
5000 ton steamer, lies well within the
proposed area OF the basin. BY pur-
chasing not only the lots at the greater
depth, but also those close in to the
shore line, the state will be able by
dredging to make one of the finest
inlands basins to be found in any port
in the world.

SURVEYOR OF PORT
ASKS FOR LAUNCH
Woodward Wants Boat to Pa
troll Waters and Enforce
Navigation Regulations

In order to enforce the navigation
laws Surveyor of the Port Woodward
has addressed a communication to Col
lector of the Port Stratton asking that
his office be provided with. launch of
about 5 tons capacity and of light draft
to patrol the many sloughs and rivers
emptying into the bay of San Fran
cisco. Similar provisions were asked
for in the waters of San Luis Obispo.
Monterey bay, Bodega bay, Bolinas bay
and Lake Tahoe, whence violations OF
the navigation laws have been reported.
According TO Surveyor Woodward COM
plants have come particularly from
Monterey bay and Lake Tahoe. He
said there were no vessels at this port
engaged primarily in the enforcement
OF the navigation laws. The revenue
cutters Golden Gate and Hartley are
used for boarding purposes. but neither
is suitable for the character OF work
proposed.
The communication was also in an
swer to letter of the commissioners
of navigation written September IA In
reference to the best methods for the
enforcement of the navigation laws.
San Francisco bay and its tributaries
extend from the southern limits at
AlvIso to above Sacramento on the
north and to Stockton on the east, a
distance of more than $50 miles. and
with ramihcations in sloughs and in
lets have upward of 300 miles Of nav
igable waters, in which trade is car
ried on in small power boats. a large
percentage OF which are under 3 tons
net.
These vessels the surveyor purposes
to keep under observation, but owing
to their widely separated fields of
operation, the inadequate means of
transportation and insufficient force
in the surveyors ofice, the matter
has not had the close attention 1t
should.
In the opinion of Surveyor Woodward
a boat can be maintained for this work
at a cost of 1875 a month.
