University Coed
[Soeeial Dispatch 10 The Call

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Aug IL
students, Elizabeth Hoadley Morgan of
Belvedere and Mills Pierce Cook, son OF
William Hoff Cook, the San Francisco
attorney, kept secret the fact that they
were married at Stockton on February
s.. 1908. but now the story of an old
elopement IS known. Thirty months is
a long time; to keep a romantic. secret,
particularly when the contracting par
ties in the romance were separated by
5000 unyielding miles, and 81 months
proved too long.
Both young people were members of
the class of 1912 at stanford university.
They met at a dance given at the Phi
Gamma Delta house, of which frater-
nifty Cook was a member, shortly after
they entered college. 1t wasn't long
after the dance before they took a
little journey to Stockton and there
were married.
Mrs. Morgan, mother of the girl sus-
pected an incipient romance and took
her daughter off to New York. not
knowing that already the couple were
married. The dutiful daughter studied
art with the art students league, but
the 5000 miles could not cool her
ardor for her husband, and though the.
couple had patience for two and a half
years they decided then that impatience
was the only virtue and announced
their maria ge, to the infinite surprise
of relatives and friends Now Mrs
Cook has returned to. California, ana
the couple will make their home in
Berkeley.
Mrs. Cook is a graduate of Miss
Hamlin's school and is well known in

EXPLOSION RESULTS
FROM Low WATER
Boiler-Aeeidenf ) i, SC on Phoenix Due
to This, Declares Inspector
Bnlger

That the explosion on the schooner
Phoenix last Saturday night. which re-
suited in the wrecking of the vessel
and the death of four4of the crew, was
caused by the water in the boiler be-
ing allowed to run too low, appeared
ins the, investigation conducted yester-
day before Inspectors of Hulls and
Boilers John K. Bulger and o. F..
Bolles ,s T#
Three witnesses were examined be-
fore the inspectors yesterday. The
first was the captain of the i'll fated
vessel, p. Halverson, who stated that
the vessel was on the way from Needle
rock to Point Arena with a. cargo of
tanbark. The captain was asleep at
the time of the accident.
The captain testified that the boiler
was in good condition when the ship
left this port on it's last trip; that the
patched part of the boiler had leaked,
but had afterward been put i'm good
condition again. Halverson denied
that he had telephoned. the owners of
the vessel that the patch on the boiler
had given away.
: Lewis Larsen, the first mate of the
Phoenix. was next called. He was on
the bridge at the time OF the accident
and was hurled to the top of the deck
load. He was knocked almost uncon-
scious and remembered but little of
the conditions about the boiler.
First Assistant Engineer George G.
Murphy testified that it was his belief
that the h. cad of the boiler had blown
out and not the patched portion. He
said the boiler was in good condition
and was a half to three quarters full
of water. He further stated that there
was a pressure of 135 pounds of steam
during his watch and no indication
that there was anything wrong.
Inspector Bulger stated that he be-
lieved from the evidence that there was
not enough water in the boiler at the
time.
