MARE ISLAND, Jan. 27.-The cruiser
California lies in the drydock here
with battered plates and buckled
frames and no explanation of the cir
cumstances attending the disaster can
be given by captain, officers or crew.
How the ships side could be crushed
the officers in command is a matter
that will receive the attention of a
naval board of inquiry and later the
serious consideration Of the navy de-
partment.
When the. cruiser was examined to-
day by officers and mechanics it was
discovered that plates covering dis
tance of 175 feet on the port side were
crushed in and would have to be re-
placed. The damaged plates are just
below the armor belt of the vessel.
CAPTAIN SILENT ON ACCIDENT
The interior of the ship also look ed
as If a battering ram had struck it
and 25 frames were pulled out In a
crushed condition. The vessel went
on drydock Saturday, but the revela-
tions of its crippled condition were not
made to Commander II. T. Mayo until
today He Immediately ordered an in
vestigation.
Captain Alexander HaIstead seems
unable to explain how the damage was
done his ship. Men expert in laval
affairs say that only blow that would
have rocked the ship from stem to
stern could have wrought such havoc
yet everybody aboard ship processes
ignorance of any collision or accident
The California has not been in dry
dock for nearly year. and it was sug-
gested that the accident might have
happened before the ship left San
Francisco last spring.
COURT MARTIAL LIKELY
It was also stated that the plates
might have been battered in when the
ship was at Corinto last fall. But
these are only surmises. The truth
will likely not be learned until a full
investigation is made by the navy in
quiry board.

There is courtesy rule in congress

good stead IL the two senators should
join in recommending him.

NECKBANDs OF RIBBON
DECORATED WITH MOCK JEWELS,
THEY ARE MOST EFFECTIVE.
With Cheap but Carefully Selected
Stones Perfect Imitation OF the
More Costly Ornaments May
Well Be Achieved.

Neckbands of velvet ribbon on
which are sewed rhinestones, crysta!
or let beads are easily.made and very
effective.
The popular width for neck velvets
this season is an inch or tribe more
and where the rhinestones arc sewed
on to simulate slides the inner side OF
the velvet ribbon is stiffened slightly
with a piece Of satin covered collar
bone. In making such a neckDano
measure off an inch and a half on each
side of The front and at this point sew
a closely set row of tiny brilliants'
which cost as little rs ten cents doz'
IN. So placed and well stiff ?ned un
dcrneath these simulate the jeweled
slides of the more expensive neck
bands.
This leaves a center space Of three
inches for special decoration. A gooc
way Is to festoon, from one upright
to the other, three or four strings
of small beads, letting the lower string
groom below the line Of the velvet
band. Another easy decoration is tc
uae a single string of beads for the
the festoOp and in the middle attach
e small pendant. A single pear shaped
mock pearl is good for this purpose
and so are many of the inexpensive
pendants Of mock jewels.
Hand made pendants are easily
fashioned by covering with black vel.
vet two circles Of cardboard of about
the thickness of q visiting card Sew
them together with neat ever ami
over stitch, drawing the sewing SILK
tight enough to sink into the pile
Of the velvet. If pearl beads HAYS
peen used for the neckband sew small
pearls at intervals around this velvet
circle. threading the beads so that
chey shall lie out from the circle like
I little frame. Have center formed
u a Jet or pearl cabochon with three
Or more radiating lines Of small beads.
Such a finish for velvet neckban3
nav be varied almost indefinitely ant!
he size may range up to the dimeT:'
iions of the popular enamel iockets.
Even with neckbard of black the
pendant may be of any bright color
with an encircling row of jet beads
