Girl Travels via Auto Exclusively.

Girl Travels via Auto Exclusively.
Florence Vidor, the pretty Morosco-
Pallas film player, confines her mode
of travel exclusively to the automo
bile, although she has often narrowly
averted mishaps as a result of her
dislike for trains and other common
mediums of long distance transporta-
tion. Upon being engaged to appear
in the Lenore Ulrich photoplay, THE
Intrigue, Miss Vidor, who at the time
was at Houston, Texas, Immediately
made hel usual preparation for the
long trip to the Los Angeles studios,
and in place of buying a yard of rail
road tickets, invested in a new camp
ing outfit and supplies for her wealth
er-beaten motor car. The trip
proved rather adventuresome and in
cluded the shooting of several coy
otes and robbery at the hands of a
gypsy band. Travelling alone, Miss
Vidor prepared her own meals, and it
was while getting some water from a
nearby spring that her auto camp was
robbed by the gypsy band which she
had passed earlier in the day. Prac
tically every article of value was TAX
en-, including all her money. Upon
returning to her camp Miss Vidor
found little left aside from her car
and prints of horses hoofs and wagon
wheels Determined to give chase
she suddenly discovered that the
crank handle of her machine was
missing. Fortunately, several hours
later passing automobile took her
in tow. and it required considerable
telegraphing before she could con-
tinue her trip. Bespattered and with
a flat tire, she arrived at the Moros-
co-Pallas studios in plenty of time to
commence her activities before the
camera. Miss Vidor is the daughter
of rancher from the old school and
has spent the greater part of her life
out of doors.

Discarded straw hats for
COW Waterwell Dairy.

A well-known lady living some dis
tance out on the Boulevard tells this
one on herself and husband, equally
we'll known: 1t seems that she and
her husband had motored to town
together from their home and left
the car parked in the street while
they separated to make some pur-
chases. Several days elapsed, during
which they both enjoyed several
slices from a fine ham which they
had brought home in the car on the
day in question. Finally the hus-
band happened to remark: "This is
a fine ham. Where did you get it?"
His wife answered.; "You bought 1t
yourself, you ought to know" The
husband disclaimed the charge, and
it finally developed that neither one
had bought the ham and placed it in
the car, each thinking of course that
it was the purchase of the other
when they found it. The real owner
who put his ham In the wrong car
is probably still wondering what be-
came Of it.

Federal Deadline
At Rogue Mouth

At the request of the Macleay Es-
tate Company the United States gov
ernment, after an examination by
Engineer Schubert of the war depart
ment, has established a deadline at
the mouth of Rogue river at point
500 feet east of the narrows, beyond
which commercial fishing operations
cannot be conducted. The state game
commission last August announced
the establishment of similar dead
line, but has done nothing to enforce
the order.
The federal deadlne will settle the
matter for good and all, and fisher
men violating this order will be pros
ecuted by the federal government,
which provides penalty Of from
! $500 to $2,5OO or a years imprison-
ment or both.
The operations of the commercial
fishermen at the Rogue's mouth have
kept many fish from entering the
stream, as at times the narrows have
been virtually fenced with gill-nets.
Wardens have been handicapped in
attempts to enforce the law by
speedy acqnittals in the justice court.
The establishment OF the federal
deadline takes the matter out of the
jurisdiction of the local courts at the
Rogue mouth. One of the best sein-
ing grounds of the Macleay company
is eliminated by the deadline and two
set-nets, while a score of gill-netters
are cut out.

Gets Stuck In the Mud.

A movie comedian has a soft time
of it. If you doubt this, see Billie
iitchie, the original, who spent sew
eral hours the past week floundering
around in Shiny mud in Hollenbeck
Park lake, says a Los Angeles paper.
Billie was cast in a role which
called for him to dive into the lake
and then wade ashore. The dive was
successfully negotiated, but the diff
cult part was encountered when
Ritchie attempted to wade.
The mud on the bottom of the lake
was soft and oozy, and every step
the capering comedian sank into 1t
up to his knees, each step taking his
head under water.
However, he reached the shallow
part, and finally a portion of the lake
which was entirely out of water, but
the mud was still there. The come
dian sank deeper and deeper, until
he was well above his knees in mud
Calling for assistance was of no
avail because the members of the
company thought he was handing
them an extra laugh, so the camera
was picked up and the troupe left.
Several hours later the diminutive
comedian was dragged from the mud
by kind-heatred policeman and sew
eral members of the fire department.
Yes, it is pretty soft for a come
dian-so sometimes.

with this prize, Mr.. Tellegen was

hooked huge yellow tail, which kept

drag Mr. Tellegen from the end of

causing the number of visitors that
year to Jump from 1906 in 1914 to
