NOW NATIONAL MONUMENT
Jagged Peaks in San 6enito County to
Be Protected in Every Way
fro n UnsightIy Exploit
alton

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The pres
ident has just signed a proclamation
making national monument OF the
jagged peaks known as the "Pinnacles,"
situated in the western part Of San
Benito county, Cal.
The area of the monument is about
20S0 acres. This natural wonder Is
about nine miles due east from the
Southern Pacific station at Soledad, and
is reached by two roads. The Jagged
formation of the rocks is of great scien-
tific interest.
The Pinnacles, which have an actual
area of slightly more than 1000 acres.
are located within the Pinnacles ma
tional forest, which has an area of
14.108 acres. The movement to give
the peaks permanent protection and
preserve them for their scientific in
terest was started by j. c. Needham
and other influential Californians in
1904. The creation of the Pinnacles
national monument is the final out
come of this movement. In this way
the peaks will be protected in every
way from unsightly exploitation.

A woman's heroism and a parrot s

the lives of a dozen persons yesterday
ana prevented the destruction of the
rooming house at 754h Maple avenue
in which more than twenty men Wo-
men and children were at the time.
The woman, whose act was the SUB

and discussion among members Oh the
police and fire department yesterday,
was Mrs Ruth Kidder, roomer at
the house.
The parrot is the property Of Mrs.
Kidder and by it's loud cries of FIRE,
fire. the house is on fire" summoned
neighbors to the aid of its MISTRESS
who was fighting desperately to ex-
tinguish the flames.
While preparing breakfast yesterday
morning Mrs. Kidder was called to an
adjoining apartment While she was
absent from her room one of the pipes
leading from the gasoline stove to the
tank containing the oil, began to leak:
The fluid ran on the stove and a small
stream was nearing the flame as Mrs.
Kid1er re- entered the room.
Recognizing the danger and hoping
to prevent an explosion the brave wo-
man grasped the stove and hurled IL

and knocking the woman from her feet.
Without waiting for assistance and I'M
mindful of her own danger Mrs. I'D

to beat out the flames. Her dress
caught fire, but Mrs. Kidder contented
herself with tearing off the burning
cloth and continued her fight with the
flames Neighbors, hearing the par
rot's cries, hurried to the woman's as
sistance and an alarm was turned in
to he fire department. Soon an engine
responded and the fire was extin-
guished after about SITS damage had
been done.
Mrs. Kidder was only slightly burned
and was congratulated by all who
knew of her heroic work.

The petition was signed by about
two hundred tax payers Of that vicin-
ity. 1t was referred to the building
committee.
The board decided to accept $1,000
from the Los Angeles-Pacific Railway
company for right of way for a sub
way beneath the California street and
the high school property.
At a recent meeting OF the board IT
was voted that $500 be accepted as the
amount for this right of way. 1t was
not discovered at the time that both
the California street and the high
school properties would be affected.
AS $500 was accepted for a portion of
the right of way, it was deemed ad-
visable to accept $1,000 for the whole.
