SrNF ' Hiif fRA0G n SSO South Pole, was not joined by Capt. Robert F. Scott until few days later at Cardiff.
 The expedition consisted of twenty eight officers and scientists in addi- tion to a crew of twenty-three picked men from the British royal navy.
 The principal members of the ex. petition. besides Capt Scott, were: Lieut.. E. R. c. R. Evans, R. N, sec ond in command of the proposed Western party Dr. E. A.

The ponies. dogs, and motor sleds were to be used alternate ly for transport across the distance between the landing place and the Pole, which was about 1,500 miles. It was arranged to cover ten miles on an average daily, and it is appar- ent that this scheme was carried out up to the moment they reached on January IS the South Pole, from which they were fated never to re- turn.
 The expedition under Capt. Scott was the best equipped that had ever been gathered together for such an adventure.
 Provisions for a three years stay in the ice regions had been taken on board the Terra Nova, and these vera placed on shore.

HARBOR RULING
SAVES MILLIONS
Sweeping Supreme Court De-
cision on TideIandS Affects
Other Cities

Attorney General u. S. Webb be-
lieves the supreme court decision In
the tide lands case is sweeping
enough to cover all undeveloped, and
in some cases developed property
along the water front in any harbor
city in the state, saving many millions
of dollars worth of property to the
municipalities, and making possible
vast improvements IN harbor facilf-
ties Cities affected besides Los Ange-
les. San Francisco and Oakland men,
toned by Webb are Eureka, Benicia
and Vallejo. where pending harbor
projects have been contingent upon
the final settlement or tide land
claims.
For San Francisco alone, Mr.. Webb
says the decision will save the city
fully $2.000,000, which would have
been needed to buy the lands for the
Islais creek project in case the SUI
preme court had held differently IN
the tide lands claims. In fact, con-
dennation suits for the securing Of
these lands had already been started
by Daniel Ryan for the state harbor
commissioners, the suits beng held
up on advice of Webb until the SUI
preme court had passed on the mat
ter. The decision now makes the
suits unnecessary.

soliloquy, You'll do the same thing

a convict, at the prison vaudeville
show year ago. was porphetic in the
career of the singer. who was re-

forged checks he has been heard of in
dozen different states in thelast three
months Word was received by Sheriff
John Keating yesterday that Andrews
was held by the Philadelphia police.
He was arrested while on a honey
