WASHINGTON, June 11,-Accord'
ing to Hugh NJ. Burke of San Fran
cisco, protector of the summer festiVai
among tho redwoods and charter
member of the famous Bohemian cluo,
the people of California are so busy
with other things that they have not
time to discuss politics or even to think
about the election in the fall, Accord
ing to Mr. Burke, who is here on busl-
ness at the new Willard, tine follow
ing arc few of the distractions OF
Californjans.
Getting the Panama canal lnterna-
tional exposition for 1915 and raising
money for the same.
Preparing for the Jeffries-Johnson
prize fight and taking care of the visi-
tors who are coming to see the same,
Making money, praising the tariff,
admiring President Taft and enjoying
life in general.
Making a Record.
"California is about the busiest state
in the union just now,' said Mr.
Burke.
"The people have not time. TO dis,
cuss politics, but we are all right for
Taft and tho Republican party. This
state is booming. The tariff Is giving
satisfaction ard the insurgents ara too
busy making money to make much trou"
BILE in the coming election. In fact
all the people ave too busy getting rich
to accumulate a crouch, California
seems to admire President TAFT great
ly, and I don t think the mass of resi-
dents desire Il change. They don I
want any experiments.
Tho festival among the giant red
wood trees of California. initiated by
Mr. Burke, has become world famous
At first there was some opposition to
it, but when it became so well adver
tised that the people from the east
commenced to journey to California to
see it, then everyone switched around
in favor Of it, 1t is held In the mid,
summer and is a panoramic spec
tacle.

CAPTAIN SCOTT UNABLE

FORT H. g. WRIGHT, EASTERN
LONG ISLAND, Via New London,
Conn, June 11-'fI am now convinced
that my sister, Mrs. Porter Charleton
is dead, but I accuse no man., I am
ignorant Of any motive and 7 have 10
information which would help ne 10
solver the mystery"
That was the statement made by
Captain Henry Scott, U. S. A., brother
of Mrs Mary Scott Castle Charlcton,
the American woman whose body was
found in trunk at the bottom of Lake
Como in Italy and whose mysterious
death has shocked the world.
Captain Scott got his first informa-
tion Of his sisters death from tho
newspapers, and it was not until to-
day that he received confirmation of it.
Situated at Fort Wright on an island
twenty miles from New London, Conn,
he is completely out of touch with the
world, for ho can be reached only by
long distance telephone or wireless.
Fort Wright is at tho eastern extremity
of Long Island, the nearest town be-
ing New London, Conn, across Long
Island sound.
Mystery That Battles.
"For twenty hours I have been at.
tempting to conjure up in my brain
some solution Of this tragedy said
Captain Scott. "At first I relied upon
the hope that the dead woman was not
my sister, but | felt strangely certain
all along that it was she. Before she
told me that she and her husband In.
tended visiting in Italy, she mentioned
Como as one of the spots where they
anticipated spending some time in
quiet cottage by the lake side,
have not seen my sister for some
months. L never saw her present hus.
