Many Curious Specimens of Ma
rine Life at Los Angeles.
United States Ship AIbatross Com
pletes Remarkable Trip With Many
Scientists on Board-What
They Secured.

Los Angeles, Cal.-The United
States ship Albatross has just COM
pleted a most remarkable trip. With
a corps of scientific men on board the
vessel made an expedition down the
southern coast of California, round
the peninsula and back to San Fran
cisco. And the return trip was not
made empty handed, for treasures and
curios Of the sea came back with
them.
The party, in addition to the chief,
DR.. c. H. Townsend, acting director
Of the American Museum of Nat
ural History in New York, included
DR.. J. N. Rose Of the National Mu-
scum in Washington, botanist; Dr.
Paul Barsch. also of the National
Museum, zoologist; Waldo Schmidt,
assistant naturalist of the AL
batross, and Messrs. Anthony and
Osborn, well known west coast col
lectors.
The Albatross cruised along the
coast of Lower California, stops be-
ing made at Guadaloups Island, San
Bonita, San Bartolome Bay, Bay San
Cristobal, San Rogue Island, Point
Abrojos and many other places of
Importance, and then passed on into
the Gulf Of California, going as far as
Tiburon Island and the Angel de la
Guarda islands.
Several adult elephant seals were
killed at Guadaloupe Island, brought
on board the ship and put into brine
to preserve them, while six Of the
younger animals were captured
alive. The full grown elephant seal
is about 20 feet long and has a snout
or nose closely resembling that Of an
elephant. At Guadalupe Island also
the party found excellent opportuni-
ties for research and exploration.
Here, too, they obtained a fine collec-
tion of rare birds, mollusks and plants.
Following along the coast and max
ing frequent landings, and making dur
ing the trip % deep sea hauls with
the dredgee ranging from 400 to 1,O71
fathoms (2,400 to 6,426 feet), many in

were secured. Brought up with the

New YoTk-Israel Neboschik, who
cells mems clothing at 1853 Rivington
street made a great find in front Of
ais shop. From the gutter he picked
ap an envelope containing $500 In
bills. To find such a fortune knocking
about In the gutter in Riyington street
ls no everyday occurrence. Whdt Is
rael did with It was more unusual
Btill He took the money and en-
Velppe to the Delaney street police
stGtion.
Lieutenant Brady and the detective
q the station found their faith in hui
manity increase when Neboschik told
them that he had found the money;
that he had thought some poor woman
might have lost 1.-THE savings OF
Gears-and he wanted to leave 1t for
the owner. Lieutenant Brady thought
that he had made the discovery on
which Diogenes had wasted his life,
and he said as much.
Up In the Bronx lives Miss Molly
Brambiar. She works in a costume es-
tablishment I'm West Twenty-ninth
street. II is part of her work to get
the money from the bank to pay OF
the girls for the week. Now If Miss
Brambiar had gone to the bank, got
that money and brought it back to the
shop in Twenty-seventh street, there
most likely would have been no en-
velope kicking around in the gutter In
Rivington street and nobody outside
of his few friends would have known
what a square man Neboschik really Is.
But Molly didn't go herself, whether
It was too hot or whether she had
something better to do, it doesn't mat
ter. She sent one of the new errand
girls for it, The new girl went to the
bank, got the money and put it in
an envelope and started back toward
the shop in Twenty-seventh street.
But when she got there, the envelope
was gone. And all the scolding of the
boss and all Mollys crying couldn't
get it back. Nobody had the faintest
hope that anybody as square as Neb-
oschik would find it.
Molly Brambiar read in the paper |
about the finding of 5000 in Rivington |
street and she knew right away that 1t |
must be the money belonging to her
shop. She rushed for the subway as
fast as she could and then to the
Delaney street station. The envelope
had been sent to old headquarters at
300 Mulberry street, so she had to go
there to claim It. With the money
safe in her possession and a feeling
of relief in her heart she started out
to find Neboschik.
He was in his shop selling celluloid
collars to a customer.
Mr.. Neboschik," she said, Il think
