Miss Messerschmidt lived in South
Berkeley with her father and brother
for many years and is a graduate of
the Lincoln grammar school there. Pre-
vious to the earthquake she was a
nurse for a short time at the Roosevelt
hospital but left there.
According TO Mrs. L. C. Shingle, wife
of the proprietor of the hospital, Miss
Messerschmidt's departure was not vol
untary.
she was too wild" declared Mrs.
Sningle, "and we did not think lsaf the
kind of a girl with whom the other
nurses should be forced to associate.
She was only with us for short time,
and we told her to go.
She is not a graduate nurse and, as
far as L know, has had very little ex-
perience in nursing. She had had no
training previous to her coming to
the Roosevelt hospital. and none since
that I have heard Of"
Immediately on the receipt of in
formation that Miss Messerschmidt had
been placed in detinue, her father and
brother went at once to San Francisco
this morning to see her. They remained
the greater part of the day.

declined to join the inquest.

there came large, important looking

none other than William z. Purcell of

NOTHING IN 1T FOR HYDE.

The fight over the Swope estate
has commenced in earnest, Mrs. Hyde
and her mother both having filed par
tition suits. Probably the matter will
be easily Strengthened out in the
courts and each Of the heirs get his
or her share of the property left by
the philanthropist.
1t was for an extra share or two OF
this estate that DR.. B. C. Hyde Is al
legged to have murdered Colonel
Swope and his nephew, Chrisman,
and attempted to make way with
other members Of the family.
Having been convicted of the
crimes charged and sentenced TO life
Imprisonment, DIR. Hyde will prob
ably not take any great amount
Of interest in the partition suits unless
he has high hopes of a new trial and
ultimate freedom.

HOLLANDS ONLY HOPE.

According to the dispatches,
Princess Juliana of Holland is Sc
riously i'll, and, being of weak consti-
tuition, may not recover. The princess
has just celebrated her first birthday,
and the people of The Netherlands
made much of the occasion
On this child the future of Holland
seems to depend. Should she die the
heir to the throne would be a young
German prince, in the event that Will
helmina does not give birth to another
child.
Germany has long coveted Holland.
With a German prince on the throne
the amalgamation might be easy. and
the diplomats of Europe, especially
Great Britain, are more or less agi-
tated.
Europe has been at peace for q
number Of years. AT least there have
been no great wars. What would
happen if Germany should seize Hol-
land can easily be conjectured. Great
Britain certainly would prevent 1t II
possible, and a war involving all of
the great European powers would
naturally result.
But these things have to do with
the future and not the present. Queen
Wilheimina is young and may live a
long time, and the little Princess Ju-
Llama still lives. Nevertheless the I'M
expected sometimes happens, and
should Germany attempt to annex
Holland the dove of peace will at
once seek a hiding place.

ONE ON HEPBURN.

The senior senator from Idaho is
making a reputation for himself at
the national capital, if all the news
paper yarns are to be believed, the
Washington Herald being responsible
for the following:
After Senator Hepburn had talked
himself thirsty on the agrtcul-
rural bill ne called for glass of
water.
That reminds me-" said a gentleman
in the gallery, "of an incident
that happened in the New York
legislature. A member had been
speaking on a certain bill for
more than an hour, much to the
discomfort of his hearers, when
he called for a glass of water,
and started off afresh. Another
member on the other side of the
chamber was on his feet in a
jiffy and said: MI. Speaker,

INTENSIVE FARMING.

The farmers of the European coun-
tries, whose tracts of land are neces-
ssrily small, make up for their small
acreage by careful cultivation, the in
tensive system of raising crops which
this country must sooner or later
adopt.
Some farmers in this western coun-
try with small patches of ground
make a good thing out Of 1t. Others
with more land receive less for their
labor owing to lax methods.
The small farmers Of the Valencia
district in Spain, a portion OF the
country not highly favored by nature,
manage to make a good living, and
those having a larger area Of land
make money.
1t is necessary to irrigate the land
in the Valencia district, and water is
scarce. Those farms with first rights
in the irrigation systems deriving
their supply from rivers and streams
are worth the most, those owning
later water rights take the surplus
after those ahead of them have been
supplied, and so on to those with the
most recent rights, for whom there is
often no surplus left. and whose land
is therefore less valuable. Those who
have no rights at all in the river sys-
TENS irrigate by primitive means such
as an endless chain of buckets in a
well, worked by horsepower.
Raising water in buckets from a
well by means of an endless chain is
slow work and necessarily the land
cannot be well irrigated by such q
system. Yet the Valencia farmers do
well on an average.
The most important products are
oranges, peanuts. almonds, onions,
rice and garden truck, all of which,
rs well as everything else grown in
the district except grapes, are given
intensive cultivation. The average
value of land per acre for oranges
Cplanted) is $500 TO 1000; for pea
nuts, $500; almonds (planted), $500;
onions, s4o0; rice, $500. and truck
land, $500. These values are for land
with some sort of irrigation, without
which none of the crops mentioned
will yield.
With intensive cultivation the land
OF Utah will give much greater re-
turns than the Valencia district can
boast, and we shall have to adopt the
system sooner or later if we raise
enough to supply home demands.

Morgan's Tale of a Minister.

]. Pierpont Morgan, at the recent dio-
cesar convention in New York, amused
a group of clergymen with story OF
a minister.
HE was as ignorant, this good man,
of financial matters said Mr.. Morgan
''as the average minancier is ignorant
Of matters ecclesiastical.
He once received a check-the first
he had ever secured in his life-and
took it to bank for payment.
But you must indorse the check,
said the paying teller, returning It
through his little window.
1ndorse it?' said the old minister,
in a puzzled tone.
Yes. of course. It must be in
dorsed on the back.

ing the check over, he wrote across the
back of it:

SALT LAKES EARTHQUAKE.

In order not to be behind the times
Salt Lake has INDUCED in little
seismic disturbance, just TO see what
1t feels like. 1t isn't pleasant sensa-
ton, and the experiment viii not be
repeated unless it becomes necessary
to jar down some of the old buildings
in order to make room for modern
structures.
There have been earthquake shocks
in Utah before, never severe enough
TO do any damage. The Sunday morn
ing tremor was a little more classy it
this respect and there were some
cracks in the walls in outlying dis
tricts, nothing serious, however.
Earthquakes are of common occur
San Francisco, in this country; Mes
sina in Italy, and Carriage in Costa
Rica having each had a disastrous
experience Scientists do not know
what causes the commotion in the
bowels OF the earth which results in
the vibrations on the surface. There
are many theories, but no facts upon
which to base a conclusion. Most Of
the earthquakes are associated with
volcanic phenomena, ana there are
two classes of them.
According TO the authorities. earth
quakes of third class are associated
with the development Of mountain
structure of a. certain type. In a GER
tain extensive district of western
North America it is said the prevalent
structure of mountain ranges in
wolves extensive faulting.
Each range consists Of one or more
huge blocks of rock, bounded by
faults and lifted above their neigh
bors. Renewed movement on old
fault lines, therefore. causes the
earthquakes in this mountain region.
That is about the best explanation
that can be given of the cause of the
quake that shook up Salt Lake.

CHAMP CLARK's SPEECH.

Being leader of the minority in
Congress, Champ Clark just mad TO
say something about the tariff before
Keynote" speech was not up to the
Clark standard beca1se, when the
Missourian attempts TO discuss the
tariff schedules he gets into deep wa
ter at once and mis- efforts to swim, or
even float, are Iaughable.
There are Democrats who know
more or less about the tariff question,
but Champ isn't one OF them.
The only point mado or attempted
to be made was the Offer Of the House
leader Of the minority to pledge the
Democrats not to raise the general is
sue Of the tariff if the Republicans
would report a bill reducing the rates
on wool and woolens.
Champ was perfectly safe in -g1ak-
ing the bluff because he knows the
it at least, is against any agitation o.
the tariff at this time He knows
also that the wool schedule is the re-
suit of careful study and that If the
Republicans had not intended to stick
by it they wouldn't have Incorporated
It in the bill.
He is also aware Of the fact that
an attack on the wool industry would
in all likelihood precipitate fight
among the Republicans themselves, a
contamination devoutly desired by
the. Democrats, but not likely to occur
so long as the Republicans retain
possession of their natural senses. O..
This bluff is in perfect keeping
with the campaign program of the
Democrats. They have no care or re
sponsibility. not having been trusted
by the people to make the laws. Oc-
cupying a purely negative position,
they naturally oppose everything that
comes up. They have nothing to lose
and everything to gain by such a
course, so they keep on shouting.
Fortunately the voters have the
Democratic party accurately gagged
and cannot be fooled even some Of
the time on the tariff question.
