FAMOUS WHARF TO REMAIN
IN USE AT SANTA MONICA
Action of Southern Pacific Leads to
Belief Old Structure VIII in
Future Receive More
Traffic
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
SANTA MONICA. April IAN ac-
ton just taken by the Southern Pacific
railroad indicates strongly that the
company has changed it's mind in re-
gard to the proposed abandonment of
the long wharf at Port Los Angeles
and gives color to the belief that the
famous structure will remain in use.
The tug Coils, sent here under or
ders from the company to remove the
buoys and moorings at the wharf, has
been ordered off the job and sent back
to San Pedro.
Those familiar with the situation
predict that the wharf, if not aban-
doned, will henceforth receive far more
traffic than has heretofore fallen to it's
share. Also, there is a revival of last
winters rumor of the possible estab-
lishment of Hawaiian steamship line,
with the long wharf as it's American
terminus.

Tragedy Of a Kiss. :

An Atchison romance: He had
not known her long, but as she
stood in the moonlight a white
dress and blue sash set off her
figure so we'll that he thought he
had never seen prettier picture.
And then he did an awful thing !:
he kissed her. The innocent girl
shrank from him in horror and
the young man realized that he
had Gone Too Far. Indeed as
the painting gicl strove to collect
herself sufficiently to express the
scorn surging in her bosom the
young man thought of the beating
he must endure the next day from
her father and brothers, and of
the long accounts of the fight that
would appear in the newspapers.
Fortunately, he had his hat in his
hand and turned to go. But the
girl struggled to speak she would
express her contempt for his act.
ion though it killed her. when, u
she said, in low, faltering voice,
full of deep-seated hatred, ''are
you coming again?"-Atchison

Jump off Moving TrsIa and ne Groom
Goes TO a Hospital.

| William L. Richmond, young
man from Casweli county, lies in
a ward at St. Leo's Hospital suf-
fer1ng from serious injuries re-
ceived in jumping from South
ern Railway train as it was enter
ing this city las night. The
young man and his sweetheart,
Miss Mary Phillips, eloped from
the Union Ridge section of Cas-
we'll yesterday and came to
Greensboro to be married. As
the train was entering the city,
the porter announced Greensboro
as the next stop, whereupon Mr..
Richmond and Miss Phillips left
their seats and took their position
on the car steps. As the train
began to slacken it's speed. they
leaped into the darkness aud fell
|
violently to the ground.
Miss Phillips escaped with a
few slight bruises, but her fiance
was not SO fortunate. His right
arm was broken near the shoulder
aud he was injured about the
head. He was removed to St.
Leo's Hospital, where he was at
tended by DIE R, Michaux and
DR.. A. R. Wilson, the Southern
Rsilway's surgeons, at ghis place.
The surgeons spent practically
the entire night with the patient,
who suffered greatly. His condi-
ton today is improved and the
physicians say he will be able to
leave the hospital in a few weeks.
The young man was delirious
through the night and labored
under tho hhllucination.that he
had been assaulted by the father
of his brlde-to-be. He insisted
that Mr. Phillips had struck him
Oh the head with stick and begged
the physicians and nurses to keep
the supposed irate father away
from him.
Miss Phillips refused to be sep.
arated from her fance and accom-
panied to the hospital, where she
was given 8 room for the night.
She confded to DR.. Michaux that
it was her first trip on train, but
she was of the opinion that her
sweetheart had, once before btsn
a railway passenger for a short
distance. .-Greensboro correspon-
