e. AIR weather mas favored the Jun
ior trampers for seven of the eight
Saturdays thus far this season. The
one off day was the 10th of November,
and, even then, you will remember that
1T cleared in time to enable every one
to enjoy the rare. crisp weather of
Thanksgiving week, which was pre-
dlcted four days in advance. Likewise.
a fine, clear day was promised for last
Saturday, five days before, and even
the weather man with all his charms
and spells couldn't conjure up single
cloud to obscure the grand view from
the Contra Costa hilltops
However, 1 shall make no more long
distance forecasts at present. for it
would seem like tempting providence
TO promise that these pleasant Satur-
days will continue in the same ratio
Occasionally a rainy day may cause
some outing trip to be put off another
week, but, even so, the odds are always
greatly in your favor. If you have
made up your~mind to go on a hike. oil
your shoes and get your tramping togs
ready Friday night even though threat
ening be the sky. The chances still
will be that 1.-The mists will roll in
splendor from the beauty of the hills
This series of little exploring trips was
begun just after the first rains, for the
very reason that the hills are most
attractive during the changing seasons
of winter and spring, when the bracing
air adds spice to the sport of walking.

FAIRFAX TO LAGUNITAS CREEK
Tt is needless to note that it is just
one week to Christmas and red berries
will be in such demand that you will
find no better excuse for an excursion
among the hills than the object of OBJ
tanning the red fruit of the toyon tor
tojon) the madrone and the mlschIeI
making mistletoe. Four miles north
westward in an air line from Mount
Tamalpais and the same distance
southwesterly from Fairfax, lies the
Little Carson ridge where these Christ
mas berries redden this remote range
with their merry coloring. But enough
of description. You want to get there
the quickest way, which however, is
the roundabout route by the Boiinas
stage road. Leaving the train at Fair
fax. you will proceed across the floor
of the valley of San Anselmo creek for
half mile until the road winds around
a flourishing vineyard and up a ridge
Part of the time you are on one side of
the s'hogsback," from whose easterly
slope you look across the canyon of
Deer Park creek and up to the fat head
of Bald Hill, 1,160 feet in elevation.
Winding finally to the right the new
wagon road turns at a point $50 feet
high and heads due west for a mile
past the Jaury pastures, until it swings
southerly into the upper part of the
Big Meadows, where, at an elevation
of $50 feet above Tomales bay. the
headwaters of the Lagunitas creek take
their rise. As you turn your back on
the canyon of the San Anselmo you look
across broad plateau draining gently
into the creek of -the Little Lake"
which nestles in the northern foothills
of Tamalpais, two miles and a half to
your southeast, and at almost the same
altitude.
You may hasten downward over the
yelvety grass of this upland vale for a
mile, when you will emerge upon the
old Bolinas road at point four miles
from Fairfax. This is an interesting
place to stop and notice the work that
is now being done by the water COM
pany, which is preparing to transform
this highland basin to a great lake.
The workmen are clearing debris away
below the 500 foot level and are about
to build a dam where the hills come
together just to the west of the point
where you strike the road. You have
probably read both sides of the discus
sion in the papers regarding the
. Hetch Hetchy valley project, and it
will naturally interest you to see what
is being done by the engineers who are
going to make a beautiful lake out of
this old Marin county cattle pasture

FROM FAIRFAX TO LILY LAKE

Possibly this will be the last spring
that flowers will ever besprinkle the
lower big meadows, but instead of their
passing pageantry an everlasting ex-
panse of water Will mirror graceful
oak clad knobs, redwood spires and
the seulptured spurs of Tamalpais
Hereafter when you travel along the
new BoIinas road you will wind to a
ridge crest 500 feet above this beau
tiful lake. from whose summit il al

Leaving the damsite, where l left you

road for three quarters of a mile TO

THIRTY MILLION DOLLAR SUIT

New York, June S.-The S30.000,000
suit of the Pennsylvania Sugar Rein
Ing company against the American
Sugar Refining company, the so-called
trust, was settled out OF court this
evening. Terms of the settlement
were not made public. Possibly a
statement will be forthcoming tomor-
row.
The plaintiff charged. in effect, that
it had been driven out of business
Witnesses testified that Adolph Segel
of Philadelphia. controlling power Of
the Pennsylvania Sugar Refining COM
pany, borrowed from Gustav A Kissel
million and a quarter dollars. for
which he gave as security $4,000
shares of the Pennsylvania Sugar Re
fining company. together with voting
trust certificate for the same, which
was to run until the repayment of the
loan.
With the power thus conferred, Ns-
sci, 1t was alleged, installed himself
and three of his clerks as directors Of
the Independent Sugar company, and,
having control of the directors, he Sc
cured the adoption of a resolution
providing that the then almost COM
pleted refinery, which is said to be one
Of the most economical ever built.
should not be opened or operated un-
til further orders.
That resolution, the plaintiff con-
tended, was drafted by John e Par
sons. acting as counsel for the sugar
trust, for whom it showed Gustav A
Kissel, the lender, also as agent.
Kssel. Parsons and the three clerks
of the former, Twlgg, Robinson and
Werner. were made codefendants
with the American Sugar Refining
company on the conspiracy charge
but on motion OF lawyer appearing
specially in behalf of the three clerks
the complaint against them was dis
missed today.
The details will not be made public
until after ratification by the Pennsyl-
vania court that appointed George D.
Earle, Jr., receiver of the Pennsyl-
vania Sugar Refining company. II
such ratification Is not made the case
will have TO be retired.

A NATION DISTURBED BY

Morning Examiner.) J

So Mrs. Asquith, wife of the prime
minister of Great Britain, is the sub
ject of Parliamentary discussion. She
is one of the most Independent women
In England, speaking her mind on all
occasions, and, If thought necessary,
Offering affronts to dukes and lords
or their, wives, and refusing to bow to
the conventionalities of aristocratic
society.
She entertained few days ago and,
as feature. she had a French dress
maker exhibit 200 little mannikins on
which he displayed all the latest styles
in Paris fashions This greatly
amused the English ladies and was
the talk OF fashionable London, at
last reaching the ears of the press,
and through the newspapers, finding
its way TO Parliament. The dress
makers and tailoTs of London were up
in arms at the knowledge that Premier
Asquith's wife should set an example
which promised a loss Of trade, and
the merchants went to their members
OF Parliament to demand a public de-
nunciation Of a party-the Liberal
party-the wife of whose leader
should so far forget her love Of coun-
try as to advertise the goods of a
foreign country and encourage the pat
ronizing of fashions across the Chan
mel.
Now II the wives Of fishermen were
to start a rumpus over an affair so
trivial and If the fishermen were to
fall out and quarrel over the waggings
Of the tongues of the fish mongers,
we would say that nothing more was
to have been expected from the sub
stratum OF society, but when silly
women in aristocratic circles do some
thing out Of the ordinary whereby TO
attract and hold attention. and states
men, searching for an Idea. make capi-
tai out of those eccentricities, we sim
ply say, How extraordinary!
AS a matter of fact there is more
mediocrity ruffling silks and satins
and creasing broadcloths. than is OBJ
trusively asserting Itself through
patches, and while there are foolish
women craving for notoriety or fame,
with equally foolish men to dwell upon
their frivolities, the sensible part Of
every community Will continue to be
occasionally amused by these rldicul-
Gus outbursts.
