HUNTER WARNS
AUTOMOBILES
Tells of an Experience He Had
With a Farmer at Warm
Springs
Is Charged Matinee Prices for
Viewing a Few Petri-
fed Trees
By r. r. PHOMMEDIEU

A. E. Hunter, of Osen & Hunter, and
a party of friends, spent last Sunday on
the road between Santa Rosa and Calls
toga. When three miles beyond Mark
West Springs, they sighted, over the
gate to the entrance to a farmhouse.
the glowing sign, "Petrified Forest"
For the benefit of the automobilist who
does not care to take the chances of
being part of the forest, Hunter raises
a warning hand.
They drove up to the farmhouse. and
met one who introduced himself as j I.
Nelson, the owner of these great curios-
tiles. He was most affable and invited
all hands to view his wonders. Hunter
and Eddie Martin, who was in the
party, decided to oil up and suggested
that the women folks in the party 20
and see the curiosities. Nelson was for
waiting for all hands to go at once, but.
as Hunter thought that he would be a
few minutes, the others went on. When
they started to overtake the others.
Hunter saw the ladies returning, but
they turned and took another path at
the suggestion of Nelson, who had left
a boy to pilot the men. As Hunter and
Martin got to the second gate. they
noticed a small visiting card tackled to
the side of the gatepost on which was
written: "AduIts-Fifty Cents, Chill
dren Free" Hunter surmised that 1t
was a holdup game and waited for the
party to return. When they did he
asked what he owned Nelson and was
informed 50 for the four. Hunter gave
him piece of his mind, but. as there
were ladies present, paid the bill, in
cidentally handing him his card, on
which he wrote, "Stung. The autoists
say that Nelson has but a few old
trees turned to stone, and it took them
but about 10 minutes TO view the few
trees. including the walk from the
farmhouse. Hunter tells the story as
a warning to all who may hereafter see
the enticing sign.

SAN FRANCISCO TO
HAVE AUDITORIUM
Big Convention Hall to Be Built
on the Site of Former
Mechanics Pavilion

There is movement afoot at this
time to provide San Francisco a con-
vention hall or auditorium to be so
constructed as to accommodate from
5000 to $4,000 persons.
This is projected by the San Fran
cisco auditorium association, of which
the following are the directors: Jo-
seph F. Forderer. viii L. Greenbsum.
A j. Germany, Frank P. Sheldon. Sam
ueI F. Weeks, John D. Wilson and
Charles E. Naylor. The association has
incorporated and secured a so year
lease on the property of the Mechanics
institute bounded by Larkin, Grove,
Polk and Hayes street. the site of the
Mechanics Institute pavilion destroyed
by the fire of 1906.
PLAN GREAT AUDITORIUM
1t proposes to build thereon struc-
ture on the lines of the great Audi
torium in Kansas City, which has a
seating capacity of 1O.ssO, exclusive of
what is termed the roof garden" The
idea is TO have the structure so feet
in height, with a frontage of 275 feet in
Polk. in which viii be the main en-
trance; a frontage of 220 feet in Hayes
and in Grove streets. On the Larkin
street side there are to be two large
glass covered arcades which are to
serve as entrances from that thorough
fare The contemplated structure is
to be a class A building of steel and
concrete that will cost about $500 900.
In the interior there will be an arena
in the form of an ellipse. with a stage
deep that will be on rollers. with the
idea of reducing the seating capacity
to 1000 in case there is a desire for q
smaller hall
There are to be movable steel cur
tains that will be adjusted to the size
of the hall and lowered at will.
MONSTER ROOF GARDEN
In addition there will be a roof space
with an accommodation for 5000 for
open air concerts and the like. The
arena in its full width will have an
area of $1,000 square feet. The asso-
citation proposes to fit up the audito-
rum so as to make it available for
Industrial fairs, promenade concerts.
political and religious conventions,
flower shows athletic events and other
affairs that may draw great number
of persons.
The association proposes to raise the
money required for this enterprise by
popular subscription and to that end
letters have been sent to all civic or
CARNATIONS. fraternal associations. Ia
Dor unions and individuals to get them
interested in the project 1t is claimed
bv the association that what Kansas
CITY has done twice, San Francisco
ought to do once. Kansas City had one
auditorium, which was destroyed by a
cvlcIone. and another has been built.
Further. it is asserted that with such a
meeting place San Francisco can secure
many of the national conventions of the
future and that each convention means
a great deal of money to the COM
rnunity.
