Los Angeles herald., 1910-05-27
DECLARES THAT He CAN
FORECAST EARTHQUAKES.
important Scientific Discoveries
Claimed by Former College
Professor at Oakland

OAKLAND, May 26.-That he has
made a discovery that will profoundly
affect scientific theories of earthquakes
and that will be Of practical value IN
predicting their approach is the oecla-
ration of Prof. Joseph Voyle, retired
eastern university professor, VINO
gained some prominence while presi-
dent of the Berkeley Society for Physl-
cal Research.
So important does Prof. Voyle con-
slider his discoveries that he is not
contented to lay them before the SCI
entists of the state university but mas
communicated them direct to the
Smithsonian institution and the Carne-
gle foundation for the advancement OF
learning. Prof. Voyle claims to have
discovered underlying laws that govern
earthquakes and shocks, and declares
he has constructed an instrument tnat
responds to the force waves generating
temblors two or three days before the
actual quake occurs, and by this means
serves as a basis for prediction ana
warning. He disclaims anything occult
about the discovery, but that the in
strument obeys natural laws that can
be measured and put into geometrlc
and algebraical formulae.
Prof. Voyle has been working for
wears on his discovery, he says, and
the instrument he claims has been
working perfectly for several years. He
has gathered much documentary proof
of his predictions of coming quakes,
and these, together with other evidence,
he has forwarded to the two institu-
tions named. He has not as yet re-
ceived a reply.

EXODUS Of JEWS
FROM RUSSIA ON
Narrowing Sights Seen During
Execution of BaniShment
Order of Government
PAUPERS ARE THE VICTIMS
Hundreds of Families in Pathetic
Procession Compelled to
Leave KieV
PAUPERS ARE THE VICTIMS
Associated Pressl

ST. PETERSBURG, May 26.-The ex-
odus of Jewish families from Kiev has
begun. The total departures from that
city up to last night were 300 pro-
scribed families belonging exclusively
to the poorer classes.
The expulsion is attended with har-
rowing sights.
The exodus Is compulsory and in full
fillment of the order of the Russian
government that all Jews who cannot
establish a legal claim to residence
outside the pale return forthwith to
the confines defined in the original
Jewish segregation law.
The pale was formed by Polish prov
inces and the Ukraine.
The scenes In the streets of Kiev
yesterday were affecting. The evicted
ones were veritable paupers. For the
moment Jewish families possessing
some means were undisturbed.
Throughout the day a struggling
train of wagons passed out of the
city gates carrying the miserable
household effects Of the banished. Sob
bing women clinglng to their little ones
and sad faced men were alike escorted
outside the town limits ana told to
return to the places of their birth.
GRAFT OFF THE RICH
A different procedure is adopted to-
ward the Jews who have some wealth.
They, however, are put to great ex-
pense, being obliged to return to their
native towns to obtain new permits
for visit to Kiev, on the grounds Of
urgent personal business. These per-
mits are issued for limited terms ana
so require frequent renewals at the
mercy of the police officials.
The authorities explain that part OF
the number being expelled are recent
arrivals in Kiev and that the expul-
sion is an annual occurrence follow
ing the customary influx Of Jews from
surrounding localities who are trying
to gain foothold in Kiev.
The authorities add that heretofore
many of the incoming Jews have sue
ceeded In gaining a residence through
conniyance with minor officials, but
that this year strict orders have been
given that each case be thoroughly
Investigated.

process of elimination and drafting has
been able to secure a complete Demo-
cratic ticket, made up of the best DEM
ocrats in the county.
"These candidates, too, have been
encouraged to enter the race by the
belief that the good government move
ment in this county insures the defeat
of the machine and the success Of true
Democratic principles
"Our ticket Is now complete, and will
be announced, and, believe, quickly
indorsed at the county conference at
Long Beach.
This conference, as the result of
the good news that has gone out
through the county relative to our all
Democratinc ticket, promises to be the
largest and most enthusiastic in many
years. The absence of the old push
bosses at recent conferences has done
much to encourage the attendance of
decent citizens, and men who in thu
past had begun to lag in their interest
are again enthused with hope and in
spired with confidence.
"I would urge that all the delegates
to the conference be at the auditorium
at the end of the pier by o'clock p. m,
as Immediately after the session of
the central committee the conference
will be called, and If the entertainment
provided for us by the people of Long
Beach is to be thoroughly enjoyed, we
should not unnecessarily prolong the
conference. 1t will greatly facilitate
matters If we can convene sharply at
the appointed hour"
MEN LIKELY TO BE INDoRsED
When the conference convenes to-
morrow, it is expected that the general
committee will report the following list
of candidates, although no official in
formation has as yet been given out,
and the list is subject to revision at the

WANTED To CO TO BEACH,
50 SHE WENT; IS FOUND
Little SpauIding Girl Has a Fine
Time, but Parents Don't
Enjoy 1t

''I wanted to go to the beach, so I
went"
This was the ingenious explanation
offered by pretty Ruth Spaulding, II
years of age, when she was found with
friends at Long Beach after two days
search in which the police of several
cities participated and during which
her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. F. L. Spauld-
ing of 1850 Dana street were worn by
anxiety and tormented with fear.
Ruth dropped out of sight Tuesday
morning. She started for school at the
usual hour, but took with her a 30
cent piece she found on a mantel.
When she had not returned at o'clock
in the evening her mother went in
search for her. She learned that Ruth
had left the school at closing time with
several of her playmates.
From this point her disappearance
was complete so far as her parents
were concerned until she was found
with a family named Hinton at Long
Beach last evening. Then it was
learned that after leaving school she
went to the home of a playmate at
Thirtieth and Halldale streets. There
she had supper and remained for the
night. In the morning she went to the
Pacific Electric station and bought a
ticket to Long Beach. Arriving there
buy post cards to send to her parents.
Then she went to the Hinton home
and told them she had come to the
beach for a visit. Believing her par
ents knew where she was, they did
not call them up. Thus, while the
search continued, she was safe and en-
joying herself.
Lyman Spaulding. twin brother of
the girl. was almost inconsolable dur
a.
abouts remained a mystery and the
search went on. He went to Monro-
via to look for her yesterday shortly
before the news came from Long Beach
that she had been found there.
The Spauldings are wealthy and each
year have been in the habit of passing
some time at Long Beach. The little
girl was familiar with that city and
the easiest WY to get there, and SEEM
ingly gave no thought to the worry
and alarm she caused her parents at
home.

and going with great rapidlty.
The hit of the show was little Jean
Davidson, who sang a song in child
ish treble that won the applause of the
entire house. Miss Powers had several
parts besides the direction of the play,
and acquitted herself we'll. Among the
characterizations that pleased the au-
dience were Mr.. Bonnell as a negro
porter Mr. Woods as a much married
man, Mrs. Hodgeson as a Swede, Mrs.
