NEGROES HOLD ANNUAL
PICNIC At NORTH BEACH

SANTA MONICA, July 29.-The me-
gro population of Santa Monica was
today temporarily increased by more
than $500 when members of the four
negro Baptist churches in Los Angeles
held their annual picnic at North
Beach. More than a score of special
cars brought the picnckers to this
city. They arrived at 1890 o'clock and
Immediately took possession of the
beach for the day. 1t was late this
evening before the last of the pleasure
seekers had departed for their homes.
The direction of the outing was in
the hands of Rev. C. H. Anderson, pas
tor of the Second Baptist church, and
Rev. ]. T. Hill. pastor of Mount Zion
church, both of Los Angeles. No pro-
gram was prepared, but the visitors
were out for a jolly time and to all
appearances they had it. The day was
without accident except for De witt
Lancy, who cut his nose badly when
he attempted to open a bottle with a
knife. Several young children got too
far out in the surf and were rescued
by their parents. The chief attraction
of the day was the bathing, and every
suit at the bath house was in use.
Unlike the midnight bathers at Ven
ice, the young women insisted upon
wearing hose and skirts.
A plentlIul supply OF Ifleu chicken
and luscious watermelons was included
in the big basket luncheon eaten at
noon. Popco n, peanuts, ice cream
cornucopias and sandwiches were sold
to the picnickers by the hundreds by
white Venders who accompanied the
crowd here. The snapshot man was on
the ground too, and was kept busy all
day taking pictures of the bathers III
brilliant red and yellow costumes. A
Los Angeles negro band furnished the

INDIANS DECLARED NOT
TO Be VANISHING RACE
The Baptist Assembly Hears Ad-
dresses on Work to Be
Done for Tribes

LONG BEACH, July 29.-Able dis
cussions of the Indian problems were
| given before the Baptist assembly this
morning by Wesley Conley, D. D., of
Fresno, and by Mrs. Anna Murdoch,
the latter speaking particularly about
the California Indians. In his talk DR..
Conley said in part:
I'm the United States there are in
round numbers 100000 Indians, divided
among 165 different tribes. 1t is esti-
mated there are more Indians in the
country than ever before. They are not
a vanishing race. This country belongs
to those who use it. The Indian lost
the land because he failed to appro-
pirate 1t by use. The property allot-
ments to the Indians by the govern
ment Is proving the best thing yet done
by our government.
Fully one-half of the Indian popula
tion Is now thus settled and citizen
ized. The good future of the Indian is
not to be found in amalgamation.
There should not be a mixing of the
Indian and the white man. Neither
should they be eliminated but rather
segregated. Let them still be Indian.
While the government is educating
them and elevating them materially 1t
is ours to seize the golden opportunity
to give them the gospel"
AS to the Indians in California Mrs.
Murdoch said: "Of the 1000 Indians
in California fully 1000 have never
heard of Christ. The government is
doing something for the Indians of this
state, having voted 100000 recently to
secure land for them to till. The In
dians want schools, they want to be
protected from the ravages of the
saloon, they want legal protection. This
the government can give them, but
they also need the gospel, and it is ours
to give them that"

duCtion of $169,O00

Squirrel River Discovery Entices Min

Whole Zone Is Staked.

Nome, Alaska.-Nome would be a
wonderful surprise. not only to the
stranger, but to the thousands of min
ers who were here in this city's palmy
days. A few years ago Nome was a
wide-awake and hustling camp. Every
one was talking of his good claims
and what he expected to do in the
near future in the way of taking out
fortunes, and then going back to the
States.
A stranger on landing in Nome
would say: Where are all the people
and why are these hundreds of hous-
es empty?" Now II looks as IL a
great plague had struck Nome, and
all the people had fled jim terror. leav-
ing everything behind. r-fifths of
all the houses and business blocks
are for rent or for sale. Good four
room houses, furnished can be bought
house lot and all. for from $50 to
$3.50.
Large boilers and heavy machinery
are for sale at scrap-iron prices.
Wreck, ruin and poverty meet the eye
ot the stranger. Two-thirds of the
people here are trying to get a
"homestake" to get out on the first
boats. The cause of this is that the
day of the pick and shovel is gone
in Nome. The rich placers have been
worked out, but the low-grade ground
is now coming to the front. where
large capital only can handle 1t with
dredges and hydraulicking on a large
scale.
During the summer three strikes
were made. One is the Squirrel river
tributary of the Kobuck river. 500
miles north by sea, but from Nome
overland 1t is but $50 miles by win
ter trail Now there are about seven
ty men prospecting there. They say
they have found coarse gold, nothing
smaller than nuggets Weighing about
% cents, but so far not in large de-
posits, but just about rich enough to
pay wages this winter. Winter will
develop the country, and when spring
comes miners and residents here will
know whether it win be a good camp.
