Police FIoaxed By Sea Lions
Woman's Cries Call Out Rescue Party
on Wild Night Off Point
Firnin, Cal.

Los Angeles.-It was a wild night
off Point Firmin.
A gale was blowing and the edges
of the huge combers which were roll
ing into the rocky shore were being
torn to shreds by the wind and driven
in fine spray against the embattled
cliffs.
Suddenly, as the gale died down for
a moment, the shrill voice of a wom-
an apparently battling for her life in
the seething surf, pierced the air.
Another woman in a cozy cottage
on the cliffs above heard it and sent
in a hurry call to the harbor (San Pc
dro) police for rescuers. A dozen
men armed with ropes and life buOys
rushed to the scene in an automobile.
Directed to the spot they hurried
down the Cuffs to the edge of the
foaming sea. Again cry-then more
cries rang out.
What they saw was
A half dozen sea lions each having
the time of its life, barking and ca
vorting about on the rocks.
I'll be-" said one policeman,
while the others laughed.
They bundled up their life-saving
apparatus and went back to the sta
ZION. There they avoided reporters.

Subterranean Studies Pursued by
Pupils in Mining
Work.

Returned Soldiers Are Instructed in
] the Art and Practice of Mining
Lead-Zinc Ore-Teacher
Is Lieutenant.

Moscow, IdahO-A schoolroOm 1,4OO
feet underground in the Morning mine
at Mullan, Idaho, in which returned
soldiers are being taught the art and
practice of mining lead-Zinc ore, is one
of the latest educational innovations
of the University of Idaho. This work,
which has been inaugurated by the
school of mines of the university, is,
SO far as is known, the first attempt
to apply to actual underground min
ing work the new system of vocation
al education provided for by the
Smith-Hughes act and the experiment
is being watched with interest by min
ers and mine operators alike through
out the Western states.
The schoolroom is far under ground.
and it is devoid of blackboards, books
and benches. Pupils and teacher alike
are dressed in Overalls and mining
boots, and the school equipment con-
sists of rock drills, driven by com
pressed air, or machines" as they are
generally termed in mining parlance;
steel or drill bits for these machines,
picks, shovels, timber, dynamite, caps,
fuses and all the other paraphernalia
of those who go down to the mine in
Iskips.
Teacher Is Lieutenant.
The teacher is Lieut.. Frank FL.
Skeels of the United States army
engineers, recently released from
service for this work. Before going
into the army Lieutenant Skeels had
been a mine manager and mine super
intendent, to which position he had
risen after spending his life since boy
hood in and about the mines of the
Occur d'Alene district.
Admission to the school is obtained
Northern Wisconsin advertiser. [volume] (Wabeno, Wis.) 1898-1925, 1919-06-06

While at the present time there is
a school in one mine only, it is expect
ed that within the next month or two
schools will be organized at each of the
other four or five big properties in the
Occur d'Alene district.
Like every other novel enterprise
the school has had to overcome good
deal of skepticism and passive OppOsi-
ton on the part of some of those who
should be most concerned in its es-
adjustment, but this is gradually fad
ing out as the practicablity Of the
scheme is being demonstrated" Dean
Z. A. Thomson of the University
School Of Mines said.
Applications for enrolment far ex-
coed the present capacity Of the
school.

HOLD SCHOOL IN
MINE IN IDAHO

by application to the federal employ
ment agent at Wallace, and preference
IS given to returned soldiers who are
young enough and bright enough to
be teachers.
The work in hand Is what is known
as drifting-that is, driving horizon
tai gallery or working lengthwise of
the vein. The pupils operate the rock
drills in turn, studying the number of
holes necessary to break out the pre-
determined section of rock, the angles
at which they must be driven to make
the greatest progress with the least
amount of drilling and the smallest
possible supply of dynamite. In addi-
ton, the placement of timber to sup
port a weak wall and all the various
kinks of the underground trade are
taught by making the student do them
in actual, wOrkmanlike fashion to pass
the scrutiny of a domestic mine fore
man and a lynX-eyed safety engineer.
Paid While Learning.
There is the more prosaic work of
"mucking" or shoveling, and also of
tramming the broken ore or waste to
the shaft or dumping place. The young
fellows who attend the school receive
fair compensation for their time, as
the school is carrying on drift work
by contract, and payment for explo-
sives and other supplies is divided pro
rata among the men, the salary Of the
instructor being paid jointly by the
state of Idaho and the federal govern
ment.

The treaty, the president claims. is
"an organization of liberty aud mercy
for the world"
This is his keynote in campaigning
through California.
Wilson's voice showed Improvement
in his speech at Oakland last night.
At his Oakland speech, the president
received more shouts of support from
the audience than at any other time
on his trip. When he said "if you have
friend who is fool, encourage him
to hire a hall" there were cries OF
'oh. you Hiram"
Wilson had a sendoff at Oakland
which matched any he has received,
hundreds lining the streets to cheer
him. He did not arise until quite late

citement"
Nitti was speaking before the
chamber of deputies.
The reply of D'Annunzio, the proc
lamation that every soldier refusing
to leave. Fiume would pe considered
an enemy of Italy, has been received
here.
"An infamous order, worthy of a
vile government" was D'Annunzio's
expression. He reiterated that he
would defend Fiume to the death

Premier Nitti has promised the

ment will keep the public fully III

The anti-government press has been
attacking Nitti's restoration of the
censorship, which members of parlia-
ment have regarded as fully justified
because of the delicacy of the sitllA-
ton created by D'Annunzfo.
Nitti told the chamber that strong
language in the communique of last
Saturday was necessitated by the at
titude of publications in other coun.
tries, which questioned the good
faith of the Italian government He
pointed out also that the allied gov
ernments might otherwise have be-
lieved Italy silent uccomplice of

PARIS, Sept. 19.-Without any

ed the peace treaty at the French
foreign office today. They were given
forty-fve days to make a reply.
T. Theodoroff, head of the Bull

The delivery of the treaty took
place in the presence Of single
representative of each allied coun-
try and ten newspaper correspon-

GReadjustment of frontiers, aiming
to promote the peace of the Balkans
and recognition of new state, form
the leading features of the Bulgarian
treaty which follows the Austrian
treaty in general outline.
The most important territorial
changes provide:
First, that Bulgaria modify her
boundaries in four places in favor of
Serbia.
Second, that western Thrace be
ceded to the allies for future dispo-
sition. The frontiers with Rumania
and Greece remain practically un-
changed.
Other provisions of the treaty are
that Bulgaria reduce her army to
twenty thousand men, pay repara-
ton bill of $45O,0O0,000, recognize the
independence of Jugo-Slavia and re
nounce the treaties of BrestLitovsk
