Mount Tamalpais lies on the north
side of San Francisco bay. Easy of
access by ferry and electric lines,
and one of the beauty spots Of Cali
fornia, it's foothills have become dot
ted with cities and villages, while on
its slopes are hundreds Of couples of
wealthy Californians.
Every weekend swarms of holiday
seekers thread the trails Of the noun
tain, and tourists from over the
country are familiar with its ascent.
In the deep ravinss hide groves of
giant sequoias, the most beautiful Of
which has been conserved in ma
tional park, named Muir Woods, for
John Muir, the naturalist The noun
tain is covered with heavy underbrush
of bay laurel, ohapparal and scrub
oak. For two days the fire charged
through this brush, climbing to the
highest peak, wher it threatened Tam
alpais Tavern aud eWst Point Inn
hostelries.
Fire Eats Way to Sea.
Today the fire ate its way to t1e
sa On the west and into the red woods
at the head of two canyons on the
east and north, leading to the towns
of Mill Valley, Core MADEIRA and Lake
Spur. Fire at the edge OF Muir Woods
temporarily was under control.
lBythedale Canyon, leading to Mill
Valley, is lined with country places.
The most exposed of these is the beau
tiful estate known as "The Garden Of
Allah" owned by Falston Lovett
White, and valued at $1,OOO,OO0. To-
night there was hope of saving it, but
it still is in danger.
Reliance on saving Mill valley ana
the other towns lies precariously to-
night on a trench varying in width
from SIS to 135 feet, which, it is hoped,
will stem the fire from further pro-
gress down Baltimore and Blythedale
CANYONS. Once the canyons are fairly
ablaze. it would take superhuman
work to save the habitations at their
mouths.

THE WORD "OBEY." )"
England Stirred by "Indignfties"
Contained in Anglican Marriage
Service
London Chronicle.

London Chronicle
An extraordinary manifesto against
the moral indignities to women con-
tanned in the Anglican marriage ser
vice." has been drawn up by the Spirit
ual Militancy league, and is to be sent
to every clergyman of the church OF
England, and to all persons whose en-
gagement is announced in the daily
papers.
Altogether fifteen "indignities" are
quoted. The first is contained in the
words .:obey him and serve him, "
which the bride is required to repeat,
while the bridegroom is not called
upon to profess any equivalent de-
ference or subordination. The mani
festo states:
"This indignity can be removed
either by the deletion Of the words
"obey him and serve him" or by the
insertion of "obey her and serve her"
in the corresponding formula to be
said by the bridegroom. Wise and
good husbands find as many occasions
to obey and serve as do wives"
The second complaint is the ques-
ton, "Who giveth this woman to be
married to this MANI" while no CORE
spending question is put concerning
the man.
"This indignity can be removed
either by omitting the existing ques-
ton or by adding to it, "who giveth
this man to be married to this woman.
The present one-sided giving away
is humiliating survival Of (false)
status for women"
Other alleged indignities are:
'That as symbol of the marriage
bond a ring is placed upon the finger
of the bride, while none is placed upon
that of the bridegroom.
"The bridegroom alone says: With
all my worlds goods I thee endow.
The words never have been true and
have often been the very opposite OF
truth"
Complaint is also made that one OF
the Psalms to be sung addresses IT
self wholly to the bridegroom: "The
wife shall be as the fruitful vine upon
the walls of thine house." etc. The
memorial proceeds:
eve protest that this Psalm shall be
omitted, or be supplemental by an
other addressed to the wife, and an
nouncing that her husband shall be as
Il

upon the walls of her house"


Another of the "indignities" is in th'
prayer that asserts that "out of man
woman took her beginning" The me-
mortal states:
I'VE protest that this is not only a
foolish and unscientifc myth, but one
degrading to women and fattering
to an already excessive self-esteem
on tle part of men,"
/ Comment is made on the fact that
in the same prayer:
''The petition concerning the woman
is that sne may be loving and amiable,
patient and obedient to her husband,
and in all quietness, sobriety and
peace, be a follower of holy and god
ly matrons
1--WE insist that as the husband
should equally comport himself in all
quietness, sobriety and peace, and be
a follower of holy and godly men, he
equally should be told So"
Another of the "indignities" is the
quoting of st. Paul's words: "Wives
submit yourselves to your husbands. p"
etc. 1t is urged that if this remain it
should be supplemented by saying,
Husbands also submit yourselves un-
to your wives"

TaE PRESIDENT At YORKTOWN
Sheriff and County Clerk Didn't Know
Mr.. Wilson. But Little Girl
Did.

From washington Letter to the LOUIS
vile Courier-J Journal.
The sheriff of Yorktown, Va, will
probably look up from his newspaper
every time henceforth he is accosted
by tall, thin stranger with long
jaw. But he did not look up when a
gentleman answering that description
stepped in his Office and asked him
quietly whether he might not look
through the old court house in the
historic town where CORVALLIS sur
rendered.
The long-jawed stranger, accom-
panied by another man, both in white
duck, had landed in dory at York
town and walked up the street to the
court house where Washington once

any attention to them. To be sure,

dinarily worn by the citizens of York
town, but many pachtsmen land there
and explore the city. There was moth
ing particularly distinctive about
either of the two white-suited men
who strolled through Yorktown, ex-
cept that one, being observed closely,
might have been seen to resemble ia
miliar photographs here and there.
After entering the court house the
pair saw the sheriff sitting at desk
buried in a paper. MAY we loolk
through the court house?" ask the
long-jawed man with the gray hair.
"Um-huh," murmured the sheriff.
Gust walk through that corridor and
you'll see the county clerk. He'll
show you the place
The explorers thanked the sheriff
VINO never looked UP, and wandered
on. >They found the county clerk
reading a newspaper also, but he was
amenable to reason, and, showing his
paper into his pocket, showed them
the sights of the place. "The presid-
ing officer of this court is the son OF
President Tyler" he remarked, swell
ing out his chest. Reckon you've
heard of him" ooh, yes, indeed"
said the long-jawed man, who did
most of the talking.
Before they left the county clerk

he'd give thsm a copy of the town pa
per to read. They accepted it and
progressed to the old Nelson house,
which lodged CORVALLIS in the days
when the colonies were about to end
triumphntly their war against the
mother country. AS they approached
the house little girl of about 10
years ran out, saw them and stopped.

CALIFORNIA FOREST FIRES RAGE
Thousands Fighting to Check Destroy
ing Flames-Three Villages Near
San Francisco Threatened

San Francisco, July 9.-Forest fires
are blazing fercely tonight on three
sides of the Mount Tamalpais, land
mark Of aClifornia and playground
and park of all the cities clustered
about San Francisco bay. Three vii
Lagos are threatened. The mountain
was cloaked today by a mantle OF
white smoke, which streamed across
the bay like a wind blown scarf, but
as darkness fell the mountain blazed
above the bay and ocean like an enor-
mouse beacon, Illuminating the sky
for miles:
Each morning since the blaze start
ed, it has seemed that danger was
passed, but each afternoon the trade
wind clustering in from the Pacific
has whipped the flames into life and
driven them across canyons and
trenches laboriously cut through the
underbrush, and into fresh tlmoer on
the far side of areas burned bare by
back fires.
The fires are believed to have re-
suited from carelessness of campers.
Three thousand soldiers, sailors. ma
val apprentices, forest rangers, mill
tiamen and volunteers are fighting
the flames and the women in the
threatened territory are working as
hard as the men.
Business Tied Up.
Shops are closed and business is at
a standstill throughout the threaten
ed section. Col George Bell, 18th
United States infantry, assisted by
District Chief Dubois, of the forestry
service, is directing the fight. Thus
far there has. been no loss of life and
little damage to private property, al

NATIONS

During the late scrimmage in Europe the Balkan states
stood in great danger of swift defeat when Russia stepped in and
the Great Bear threw his protecting paw around the Balkans
and Sevva. Russia furnished arms, and ammunition, money and
army supplies at a critical time and protected those struggling
states from an Austrian invasion.
Now to show their gratitude these same states entering
into N Austrian Hungary alliance and turning the cold shoulder
on st. Petersburg smile in the direction of Vienna.
Nations, like individuals, can be ungrateful, but Russia
showed about the same spirit when it subjugated Poland and
tricked her in every possible way.
A great scandal has just shaken Germany. 1t involves the
Krupp manufacturers Of big guns. This firm enjoyed a world
wide reputation as a responsible business house but the tempta-
ton to make ilegitimate profits was too strong and now the name
of Krupp stands no higher in Germany than Andrew Carnagie
does here after he unloaded his blowhole armor for battleships
on the government.
The cane sugar men who bring in their product from the
Hawaiian Islands are trying to create the idea that cane sugar
better than the sugar produced from the beet. Chemists tell us
that sugar is sugar and that no one can tell any difference be-
tween the two by any method yet discovered. No more difference
than between silver produced in Colorado and silver produced In
Nevada.
The editor of the Elko Free Press should look over the SEN
ate vote on the Hetch Hetchy bill and study up the situation
more. His information appears limited on this question. 1t is
claimed that less than a year ago when asked how he stood on
Hetch Hetchy he replied that he was unable to say as he never
saw the dance performed.
Mrs. Anna Shaw predicts that a woman will some day be
president of the United States. 1t would seem that the failure
of Taft to give satisfaction to the public would deter the suffra-
gettes from again placing an old lady in the White House.
Theodore Roosevelt is still cutting a wide swath in South
America and keeping the press correspondents and camera fiends

RIPLEY THE

1t is refreshing to meet a chronic pessimist like President
Ripley of the Santa Fe. He is the Gloomy Gus of Big Business.
Others ike President Jamer j. Hill of the Great Northern, have
their seasons of despair, but even with them now and then a
ray of hope pierces the black clouds of melancholy. Not so with
Mr.. Ripley:
Government ownership of all railroads is coming, as certain
as fate. What is there to prevent it? The Legislatures hamper
and cut our profits and labor unions take what is left. We are
practically between the devil and the deep sea. But government
ownership will fail. = y n 1t will be a great thing for
stockholders, because the people always pay well, but warn you
it will be bad for the people, because the usual standard of in
efficiency maintained by the government will be employed in oper-
ating the roads,"
Matters are as bad as they can be, but there is worse to come.
General business conditions are fine and prosperity is rampant. y
says Mr.. Ripley, but before long the railroads in disgust will all
turn over their property to the government, and then the public
will see what happens. There is nothing to make life worth lv-
ing, and the longer you live the worse it will be. The country is
going straight to the dogs, and disaster and ruin are the only
consolation a practical railroad man can see ahead. 1t is a COM
forting thought he has had for years, but it must be annoying
that the general smash-up cannot be hastened.-New York World.

great proportions. and IL highly iulu.
entail in the forming and applyi0G Of
public opinion.
As q result. the rank and file Of man
kind want larger share in the conduct
Of affairs. and a much larger share In
the yields Of their activities. Their idea
growing out Of their later education and
opportunity, is that the few have profited
too much. the many too little. by the old
order. Hence their demand for new
the directing force.
And yet. as Mr.. Depew points out,
where a strong man is In ONCE. or a
man showing a willingness to exercise
power, he Is encouraged to the utmost
display of his spirit and the power within
his grasp. Mr.. Depew instances Presi-
dent Wilson, who is running things over
mere, and President Poincare. in whom
the French hope they have strong and
dominating personality. He might also
have instanced the kaiser, who, for all
the growth of socialism in that country.
is the pride Of Germany. He does things,
and does them boldly.
There are observers of political and So
cial matters-Mr. Depew does not declare
himself one of them-who foresee trial
of unrestrained democracy in several
quarters of the world in the near flu
ture, a failure after an experience of say
half q century. and then return to
something like the old order. with strong
men on guard In office, and the rank and
file again mustered and directed from
the top. So much is on view and In
these days. philosophizing Is
becoming popular-almost a fad. indeed.

The Dancing Mania.
From the Medical Times.

From the Medical Times.
The dancing epidemic which the coun-
try Is witnessing recalls In some respects
the dancing mania of the middle ages,
which has been frequently discussed In
the literature Of neurological medicine.
The ragtime and turkey trot maniaS ap-
pear to be contagious in much the same
way that the medieval manias WERE They
are also alike also in respect to wide
spread prevalence, the populations OF
whole continents being affected. These
neurotic phenomena have been ascribed
to widespread neurasthenia, due to I'M
rest and other pathological social con-
ditions These and the naive determine
ton to be amused that characterizes
the masses. together with the peculiar
influence of a type of music" which
seems to set up characteristic motor re-
actions, account for the specially sensi-
tized class which may be observed in &C
ton day and night almost anywhere IN
the country. This class illustrates well
the principles laid down by NJ lie Bon,
that authority on the psychology Of the
crowd. Then 1t has been pointed out that
many ragtime tunes are versions Of ne
gro revival hymns. which perhaps intro
duces an element OF Quasi-religious emo
tionalism and also recalls the interesting
fact that dancing has always been con-
nected with religion, especially pagan
religion. The instinct to dance Is a very
primitive one, and through the dance GER
tain emotions find outlet and expression.
There 10 a normal and an abnormal phase
to the subject, however, and we are in
clined to think that 1t Is the latter that
finds exemplihcation In ragtime and trot-
ting.
