TRIAL OF NEW BOAT
AROUSING INTEREST
Yachtmen Believe the Wasp Speedlest
Yacht In Pacific and VIII Watch
Her Performance Sunday
Against Venus

There has not been much doing in
yacht racing in Southern California In
the last fortnight, but the summer
schedule will be resumed Sunday by the
South Coast Yacht club members when
boats in Q and r classes will race.
More Importance is attached to the
class Q race than ordinarily would be
the case, because Of the trial OF the
Wasp, a new thirty-five footer, built by
Joe Fellows for A. M. Squires, which is
believed by club members to be the
fastest boat of her class in southern
waters, if not in the Pacific.
Racing In this class has been uninter-
esting lately because of the undisputed
championship of the Venus, which has
reigned supreme for the last seven
years, The tryout of the Wasp will at
tract many club members and yachting
enthusiasts to San Pedro Sunday, ana
also will tend to put the class 9 rae
ing among the main events or future
racing programs.
Like the Venus, the Wasp is heavily
built, the mast is well seasoned, II pc
ing the old mast of Mischief Ii, but
was considered too small for that boat
this season. 1t measures close to twen-
ty-eight feet above the deck and is a
clear cedar stick. Her gaff is of spruce
and her main boom of cedar. her
frames are of oak and measure Xxx
inches. The cedar plank1ng is seven
eighths of an inch thick. In appear
ance the Wasp is as near twin sister
of the boat she was designed to peat as
it would seem possible to build two
boats.
The yachts will sail over the same
course in each class, which is as fol-
lows: Starting at a flag off the south,
east end of Miner bulkhead, they Will
pass between the bulkhead and the nag,
thence to bell buoy, leaving buoy to
-starboard; thence to the end of the
hreakwater and around the whistle
buoy off Point Firmin. leaving buoy to
starboard; thence to the end of the
breakwater again and to bell buoy,
leaving buoy to port; thence around
flag at starting point, leaving flag to
mort covering the cource twice, flag at
finish to be left of port The prepara-
tory gun will be fired at 12:55 o'clock
and the starting gun five minutes later.

and carried lavender orchids. There
were no attendants.

'T shot her because she nagged the
life out OF me-" said Guy Hadley' VINO
greeted his wife after an absence OF
several months by shooting her three
times and then turned the revolver upon
himself in an effort to end his own
life.
Mrs. Emma Hadley, who was house
keeper for the fashionable Marlborough
school for girls, fell to the floor In her
home In the rear of the school at 2l20
Oak street, probably fatally wounded,
while her husband will recover from
the flesh wound inflicted by his re-
volver.
Hadley met his wife, who was then
Emma Smythe, little over a year ago
through a matrimonial agency. He
was told there was woman from his
own town, Minneapolis, who wished to
meet him. The courtship was short
and he married her a year ago last
March. At the time Hadley was en-
ployed in the California planning mill.
and the future looked bright for both or
them. Then trouble came and LED 10

few weeks" said Hadley then one
day instead of bringing home every dol
lar of my salary l spent some of 1t.
That was the beginning OF our troubles.

more to her than my love, that money
was her religion.
Left His Wife
"I left her and went to San Fran
cisco. I found trouble in getting work
there, so finally I wrote her that I
would return. I got as far as Bakers
field and my money gave out. wrote
her a special delivery letter and waited
for days, but no answer came. I asked
for $40. Then began to walk to Los
Angeles, and beat my way as best
could. Last night I reached the city.

HoUsEKEEPER MARLB BOROUGH SCHOOL FATALLY WOUNDED
BY PENNILESS HUSBAND
They Can Hang They Want but Hope for Her Sake
That She Will Recover" Declares Would-Be Slayer,
as He Lies Chained

I was so tired and worn out with lack
Of food and the long days of incessant
walking and so angry with her for not
sending me little money, of which she
has plenty, that I was almost beside
myself.
shortly after we were married made
over to her my insurance policy of
$500, gave her 5000 in cash and the
deed to some lots in Mississippi, so
felt justified in asking her for money.
Il wandered about the city all last
night, as had less than 81 and wanted
that to buy revolver, for I was about
determined to shoot myself in her
presence to see If 1 could get a single
look of pity from her eyes. I bought the
revolver on Main street for $3.50 and
then went to her house.
"Everythlng Turned Red"
"'What are you doing here?' she
cried when she saw me. Then every
thing turned red, and I do not know
what did. I remember going into the
woodshed after I had shot her and my
self and trying to get the empty shells
out to reload and shoot myself again,
but they all stuck.
st hope she won't die--not for my own
sake; they may hang me If they wish;
it's all the same to me-but for hers.

she nagged me and loved the dollar
above her own SOUL"
Such was the remarkable confession
made by Guy Hadley as he lay chained
to his cot at the receiving hospital with
his head swathed In bandages.
Mrs. Hadley is being cared for at the
Marlborough school by DR.. J. r. t.
Jenkins and is in a precarious condi-
ton. One of the bullets entered her
breast, another the abdomen and the
third her right arm. No effort was
made yesterday to probe for the bull
lets, as 1t was thought she would be
unable to survive the operation.
