Tahoe Launch Owners
To Paw Nominal Fines

Orders came from Washington to-
day reducing to a nominal amount
the fines imposed some months ago. on
25 owners of launches who were op-
rating on Lake Tahoe in violation Of
the United States regulations.
The fact that Lake Tahoe is in two
states gives the government jurisdic-
tion over the vessels plying thereon.
None of the vessels was registered.
and all were lacking In life saving
equipment. Inspector McGinnes. upon
whose report the fines. ranging from
$3.50 down, were imposed, found that
the lake launches did not carry cop
les of the United States steamship
regulations. He found them without
bells and whistles. The department
reduced all the fines to $40.
One fine was remitted. 1t was inn
posed because the launch owner had
no fog bell In extenuation he ex-
planned that. he had lived on the lake
for IA years. and In all that time had
never seen a fog. Uncle Sam accepted
that as good excuse.

Hair boy bandit, and his fellow con-
victs, Thomas Samuels and William
Rodey, who were captured on the
Perry ranch in Eldorado county. near
the Rattlesnake bridge early yester-
day, were placed in solitary confine-
ment in Folsom prison today
Guard A. w. Morse, whom they over
powered and disarmed on the peni-
tentiary~ farm Friday afternoon, was
dismissed this morning by Warden
Johnson. These incidents bring to a
close the second greatest Jail break
and man hunt that has ever occurred
in the state. Warden Johnson said
the break will cause on change in his
honor policy He probably will not
prosecute the trio, but will punish
them severely
SORRY FOR WARDEN's TROUBLE
Hair, Rodey and Samuels talked
freely to Warden Johnson and told
him that they were sorry to have
caused him so much trouble. They
got their bearings first at the Perry
ranch and were planning to make
for the railroad through the noun
tains near Auburn when they were
captured.
Rodey acted as spokesman for the
trio.

1T was necessary a time or two to

would not have shot civilian. We
would have killed any Folsom guard

would have been glad to have done

prison and we can't help ourselves.
Warden Johnson is all right. but the
guards are cruel and unreasona BILE

Hair, who is 16 years old and leader
of the trio, says that he did not take
into consideration the fact that he
would have been eligible for parole
in two months or anything else.
Its all the same, though he said.

The beautiful insects afford "a prof

and outdoor exercise" and every
member of the family can assist in
their propagation. continues the col
lege girl, who is an authority on the
subject.
quires no capital, and is fascinating
beyond expression, she has told her
girl friends on the campus. She has
offered to aid them make a start In
the new industry, and adds:
1T may be girlish enthusiasm, or
it may be bit of good hard sense,
which has led me to believe that l
can brighten more lives and con-
tribute more to the health and happi-
ness of womankind by giving prac-
tieally free instruction to all who
wish to learn this delightful business
than l could in any other possible
manner"
HAS BUTTERFLY FARM
Miss McGlashan. whose father is
well known attorney of Truckee and
whose sister is a graduate of the
Hastings college of law and a prac-
ticing attorney. has not made a sur
face study of the insect. She has a
large butterfly farm" at Truckee,
and frequently leaves her studies on
the campus to return home to fill the
orders of decorators, artists, collect
ors and others for the delicate winged
creatures.
She has written several books on
butterflies and is considered an au-
thority on the subject, although Just
out of her teens. She talks freely OF
her work and her ambitions and
gives hints in butterfly raising. She
says:
NO BOOKS ON THE SUBJECT
Scientists and entomologists dur
| ing the last 20 years or more have,
as a rule, devoted their time and at
tention to insects injurious to agrf-
culture and horticulture, and this
may be the reason why none of the
books pretends to teach the secrets
OF butterfly farming. Beginners in
entomology can refer TO no book
which will instruct them in this work.
Il can not claim to have made any
discovery as to the scientific raising
of butterflies, for entomologists have
always known that they may lay eggs
and that these eggs would hatch out
caterpillars, which in time would en-
ter the chrysalis state and produce
other butterflies and moths. The
greatest secret of my business. that
the easiest way and by far the most
profitable to obtain perfect butter
flies is to propagate them from the
egg, was taught me by my father.
who obtained his knowledge 40 years
ago from the most eminent entomolo-
gfsts of America.
