price than that charged by Greenway
and Mrs Alexander Not because it
was thought that a few dollars differ

because they said they could provide
ample entertainment for the smaller

Greenway gives three cotillons and

$3.50 for the women. From a point of
lavshness the three affairs are on a
par. The only difference, say the
women of the Preside terrace club.
lies in the fact that the GresnwaY and
Alexander dances are given in hotels
and the Presidio terrace affairs at the
Arts and Craft hall.
Each family in the new organization
is allowed two guest cards free, while
those at the Greenway and Alexander
functions are only to be purchased at
So each. The club will hold u dance
next Saturday, and on its success will
depend the future of the organization.

men. there's a ship in trouble over
there. Get that machine out, get it
quick and break the Santa Monica
record"
Henry found the scared. shivering
passengers and crew on the beach.
Tt was a two hour trip each way
from the deserted spot where the cast
swsys were landed TO the hut on the
Malibu ranch, where automobiles that
connect with Santa Monica and Los
Angeles could be obtained.
Big Bonfires Started
At midnight the only persons at the
hut were Chief Officer Frank Mills OF
Rossiter. They had come ahead Of the
crowd to pave the way. At 1890
o'clock q big machine plowed up TO
the hut after a hard fight over the
beach roads and being twice pulled
out Of the sand by mule teams In the
machine were five women and three
little children from the wreck. The
others in the automobile were Mayor
Eakins OF Ocean Park. City Attorney
Hanna, Chief of Police Parent. Fire
chief Anderson and Chauffeur F. W.
Gordon They had gained word of
the wreck and had gone TO the assist
ance OF Henry.
Then things began to move. Rail-
road ties from q little road which runs
through the Malibu ranch were pressed
into service and three great bonfires
were started on the beach. The second
load came in. There were women and
children in this load. hauled by six
mules. Some Of the women were wet.
All OF them were cold. Everybody was
hungry and there was nothing for
them 10 eat. The bonfire was the
only hospitality except for the offer of
some newspapermen Of what they hap
pened to have in store.
The captain and officers of the St.
CroiE had given TO each of the women
= blanket. and wrapped in these they
huddled about the bonhres and even
laughed about their troubles and
praised the gallantry of the ships
crew and said they were willing 10

going TO send them-that never came
II was not until 3:35 O'Clock in the
morning that the injured began to come
in. BY this time each big bonfire was

smiling, but the rumble of the fiatcar

began TO realize that they were left
TO shift for themselves their indig-
nation began to rise, and early this
morning an impromptu meeting for
protest was held on the leeside of one
of the camp fires, 1t resulted in an
agreement to stand together in Sc

Opinions as to treatment extended
by the camp were discussed again at
a meeting held this afternoon at the
Hollenbeck hotel. Plans were initi
ated looking to concerted legal ac-
tion. Those at the meeting unani-
mously adopted resolutions of appre-
citation Of relief work of the news

automobiles and in transporting the
passengers from the Malibu ranch
to Santa Monica.
Captain Warner graphically de-
scribed the burning of his ship. which

most propitious.

Boat No. ! was the first to be filled
and / ordered it cast loose. An eye
bolt on the stern post drew out and
the boat upended. throwing out some
of the passengers violently and slight
ly injuring a few.
1T was then that Mrs. Wallace and
little Vielbaum went overheard /
saw several men jump over to the
rescue. Immediately 1 shouted to
let the other davit rope go, and the
boat righted itself Immediately.
I'm a moment those who had fallen
overheard or jumped into the sea
were back on board. the boat was
baled out and on its way outside the
line of danger. few life RATS were
manned but these were abandoned
and those on them taken into
the boats. We had nine boats. There
were about IS persons in each boat.
Il took command of the leading
boat and laid the course for Zuni
canyon, where little strip of beach
offered the only landing place be-
tween Santa Monica and Santa Bar
bara.
1T was Just half an hour between
the first alarm and the time we got
away. That allowed us no time to
get any of the property Of the pas
sengers.
For four hours the boats crews
rowed through a dense fog before
they entered the low surf at the
canyon and beached the boats Some
of the women were made Ill by the
long ground swell but other condi-
tions were so favorable that some of
the women were landed without even
getting their feet wet"
Captain Warner left for San Fran
cisco at T:30 o'clock tonight in answer
to a telegram. He refused to divulge
the contents of the message, but it was
so urgent that he did not wait to get
his dinner in town.

could be altered or eliminated only

ALABAMA DEFEATS AMENDMENT

After the hottest electoral campaign
known in the state for many years,
Alabama last week voted by approxi-
mately 25.0Oo majority against incor-
porating a prohibitory amendment in
the constitution It was fight for
life on the part Of the liquor men, and
they were aided by several complica-
tions that did not affect the funda-
mental principle Of prohibition. There
was strong political opposition to Gov
ernor Conner. who was asserted to be
planning to name his own successor;
the radical measures put through the
Legislature for the enforcement of
liquor laws had alarmed and irritated
many conservative supporters Of tenn

HASKELL TO RECOMMEND
ROADS COMMISSION

Guthrie. Okla. Dec 10.--Governor
Haskell says that he will recommend
to the next session the Oklahoma leg
islature, possibly at a special session
next spring. the creation Of state
good roads commission and the Office
of state engineer. and will favor the
continuance of good roads from one
county into another
"The building of roads. that is, per-
manent and good roads" he said. is
quite as large an undertaking as build
ing rail roads. They should be Of
large extent and should not be stopped
arbitrarily at the county line just be-
cause the authority Of the county com
missioners does not extend into the
next county. The way to build our
roads statewide is to create a good
roads commission to act as consult
ing board for the various sets Of coun-
ty commissioners. The engineer of
the board would. in fact. be a state en-
gineer, who would plan the best sur
veys for good roads from state stand
point and lay the plans before the sets
of county commissioners for approval
and the voting Of the necessary bonds
to defray the expense by counties as
must be done under the present good
roads law The only thing that the
state can furnish is convict labor"

reference to the leasing Of the present

to building court house for Craig

building used as a court house would
rent for more money for other pur-

The county commissioners have sins
