gn with a manly fellow, but you
'hould go to the bathing beach
where there are others, not seek

mans home when all others are
absent. 1t Is certainly proper to
go bathing with your fiance, OF

Alienation of a Wife's
Affection.


Dear Miss Grey: The
other day the question of
divorce and alienation of at
fections came up. argued
that IL a man ran away with
another mans wife he
couldn't bring action against
the man. That all he could
do would be to sue the wife
for divorce. My friend con-
tended he could have the
man arrested and prosecut-
ed. Which is right?
G. G. w.
A.-Your friend il right.
man can be fined for alienation
of the affections of another man,

WHALE MEAT FOR
LOCAL MARKETS
Ten Barrels of Ocean
Beef" Brought Down by
Old Bark Gayhead

One characteristic of sperm whalers
is the unexpectedness with which they
put in an appearance.
There are so few of them left on
this coast that the appearance off
Lime point yesterday morning of the
little old whaling bark Gayhead,
caused a ripple OF real excitement in
the barge Office. The Gayhead, with
every sail set, burst into the morn
ing sunshine through a bank of thick
fog.
The Gayhead, commanded by Cap
tain G. w Porter, the oldest whaling
skipper sailing out of this port. left
here December 20 and brought back
a cargo valued at about 100000. Dur
ing the cruise 20 whales were struck
by the Gayhead's harpoons; two--one
a right whale-got away. The oil
from the is captured fills 1000 bar
rels.
In addition to the oil the Gayhead
brought 10 barrels of salted whale
meat This shipment-the first of its
kind-may mark the beginning of
new industry and another swat for
the high cost of living.
Whale meat, when fresh, says Cap
tain Porter, closely resembles very
fine beef. 1t is tasty, tender and
Juicy. He was asked to salt some OF
II down and bring it to San Francisco.
If it is found that it has retained its
favor. broi1ed whale steak may be-
come one of the standard dishes.

Coultervil1e Road Is
Route Followed to
Wonderland

]. A. Leach, a retired Los Angeles
business man, who, with his wife. two
daughters and a son, was the first to
enter the Yosemite valley in an auto
mobile since the national park has
been under federal control arrived in
this city yesterday, bringing with him
first hand information of the road
conditions into the wonderland.
Mr.. Leach entered the park over
the Coulterville road last Saturday
and checked in at the Merced grove
of big trees. A large crowd of tour
lists assembled at the federal outpost
to witness the ceremony of passing
the first machine into the valley.
The captain in charge of the mill
tary guard AFFORDED the pleasure to
Miss Anita Leach of tearing down the
sign which was posted at the en-
trance to the valley road. mo auto
mobiles allowed past this point" A
cheer accompanied the tearing down
of the posted warning.
ROADS ARE DANGEROUS
In speaking of the trip, Mr. Leach
said:
I'VE were bound we would be the
first to enter the valley. After motor
ing all the way from Los Angeles to
the park we still found that it was
closed to automobiles. so we then
pitched camp at Hazel Green, where
we camped for 10 days
The roads leading down into the
valley are very dangerous and mar
row Wrong Judgment in making a
turn at only fair speed would throw
the vehicle over the side and down
thousands of feet TO the floor of the
valley. The grades also are very hard
and it is with considerable difficulty
that a person can motor out.
RULES ENFORCED
Very strict rules are enforced by
the federal officials You are not al
lowed to drive to the hotel to unload
your baggage or motor to the points
of interest. AS soon as you arrive
you are compelled to put your ma
chine in a garage. which is a big tent,
and then travel afoot.
Gasoline in the park is sold at 40
cents a gallon, but that must be ex-
pected, owing to the difficulty of
transporting it there. In all, the trip
is most pleasant and, despite the diff
fculties, 1t is one of the best to be
taken by automobile in the United
States"
