scenery. Mt. Lowe affords a far
finer view than many of the higher
mountains of California for the rea-
son that the summit is not far back
from the level country, and one
gets wonderful view of the towns,
valleys, snow-capped mountains,
orange groves, forests, rock forma-
tions, the ocean, etc. Leaving
Long Beach the first stage of the
journey is made by the electric car
line through Los Angeles, Pasa-
dena, Altadena-a millionaire col
ony- and on through Rubic can
yon. Here you reach an incline
three thousand feet long, and, in
going that distance, you are ele-
vaIed directly one-fourth of a mile.
This is a sixty-two per cent grade
at some places which the reader
knows is pretty steep. This grade
is made by two cable cars both of
which are lifted and lowered by q
steel cable of one hundred tons

Home Again
Editor Journal:

1t was my intention to write
again from Long Beach before
leaving there and, in fact, l had a
letter partly prepared, but durin 6
cur last week we we're very busy in
one way and another 80 l neglected
to finish and mail it. Then for
another seven days we were visit
ing and Oh our homeward journey.
So, instead of writing twice more
~ l had intended, l am condensing
il into one letter and this will be
ny last effort ill describing our
trip to the southwest. We have
been through a good many miles of
mountains and on thousands of
acres OF rough land, but just before
starting for home we took the Mt.
Lowe trip and went to the summit.
Mt. Lowe is In the Sierra Madre
range, and is over mile high. 1t
is especially noted for its beauty of

real enjoyment out of his work to-
day than he did when he was an
idol at the ringside. 1t was my
intention to visit his ranch and
have the novelty of meeting him
personally, not that he would have
cared to meet me, but that l
wanted to meet him so / could say
/ had met at least one world cham
pion. However, am strongly OPP
posed to the boxing game and hope
the Iowa legislature does not stoop
to legalize boxing in our state by
the passage of the bill now being
considered.
called on ex-governor Horace
Boies few evenings ago. did
not want to return home without
seeing so distinguished a citizen
who, as many will know, is now a
permanent resident of Long Beach
and lived no' far. from where we
did. He greeted me most cor
daily. He says that he never ex-
poets to visit Iowa again on ac-
count of his advanced age and that
his trip out here last summer was
| a farewell to the old state he was
chief executive Of for four years.
shall never forget the two great
campaigns Boies made when he
defeated Wheeler and Hutchinson
for the governorship. Then again
two years later when husking corn
in section 81, Cameron, the word
came that Boies was defeated and
Frank d. Jackson was triumphant
; Thinking of those days, now gone
over twenty-five years, it hardly
seems possible that one of the
chief figures in those memorable
contests is still living, at the age Of
ninety-three. The ex-governor
said to me among other things
"My general health is good, and
like to live in California; but I am
getting to be very old man and
there is not much left of me any
more" His voice is still firm
and while somewhat feeble now he
, still reminds me of the day l heare

him in Des Moines in 1896 when
he was yet presidential POSSIBLE
ity. My visit with him at this
time has no particular interest,
but, on leaving, he thanked me
most heartily for calling on him,
and this little incident will ever be
remembered by me as one of the
little pleasantries along life's way.
The ex-governor was not able to
attend the Iowa picnic in Long
Beach last fall as he had just re-
turned from his last visit to Iowa
and was so worn out at the time.
In his message to the picnickers he
said these beautiful words: my
picnic days are oyer, am facing
the sunset. Soon the shadows will
fall. l have no pain now. am
serene and calm, fearing nothing,
and grateful that my life has been
so happy. My wish for you
Iowans is that you may all live in
this beautiful land Of sunshine and
flowers until you are as old as /
am, and that you may have pros
perity and peace. May all the
blessings Of life be yours At the
beginning Of this letter stated
positively that this was my last
i effort in describing our trip, but
this letter already has the same
fault as the others | have written
too lengthy and still l find there
are number of things would like
to say yet, especially concerning
the country on our way home, and
!, a few miscellaneous items of pos
sible interest. So I guess l will

from their perches by the approaching
figure, flew down the trail In front.
Cranston pressed back the hammer of
his rife. The click sounded loud In
the silence. He had grown tense and
still, and the leaves no longer rustled.
His eyes were intent on a little
clearing, possibly one hundred yards
I'D the trail. The trail itself went
straight through it. And In an in
slant more. Hildreth pushed through
the buckbrush and stood revealed In
the moonlight.
If there is one quality that means
success in the mountains it is con-
slant. unceasing self-control. Gran
ston thought that he had 1t. But per-
haps he had waited too long for Hill
dreth to come; and the strain had told
on him. He had sworn to take no
false steps; that every motion he
made should be cool and sure. He
didn't want to attract Hildreth's at
tention by any sudden movement All
must be cautious and stealthy. But
in spite of all these good resolutions,
Cranstons gun simply leaped to his
shoulder In one convulsive motion at
the first glimpse of his enemy as he
emerged into the moonlight.
The end of the barrel struck
branch of the shrubbery as 1t went
I'D. 1t was only soft sound; but in
the utter silence 1t Travelled far. The
gun barrel caught the moonlight as 1t
leaped, and Hildreth saw its CLINT In
the darkness.
He was looking for trouble. He had
dreaded this long walk to the settle
ments more than any experience of
his life. He didn't know why the let
ter he had written, asking for an
armed escort down to the courts, had
not brought results. But it was
wholly possible that Cranston would
have answered this question for him.
This same letter had fallen into GER

strange pillars of ebony. Bert Gran
ston knelt in brush covert, his rifle
loaded and ready in his lean, dark
hands.
No wolf that ran the ridges no
cougar that waited on the deer trails
knew wilder passion, a more terrible
blood-lust than he. 1t showed In his
eyes, narrow and never resting from
their watch of the trail; 1t was in his
posture; and 1t revealed itself unmis-
takably in the curl of his lips. Some
thing like hot steam was In his brain,
blurring his sight and heating his
blood.
The pine needles hung wholly mo-
tionless above his head: but yet the
dead leaves on which he knelt crinkled
and rustled under him. Only the keen
est ear could have heard the sound
and possibly in his madness, Cranston
himself was not aware of 1t. And one
would have wondered a long time as
to what caused 1t. 1t was simply that
he was shiverlng all over with hate
and fury.
A twig cracked, far on the ridge
above him. He leaned forward, peer
ing. and the moonlight showed his
face in unsparing detail. 1t revealed
the deep lines, the terrible, drawn
lips, the ugly hair long over the dark
ears. His strong hands frightened
upon the breech of the rifle. His wiry
figure grew tense.
Of course 1t wouldn't do to let his
prey come too close. Landy Hildreth
was good shot too, young as Gran
st0n, and of equal strength and no
sporting chance could be taken In this
hunting Cranston had no intention
of giving his enemy even the slightest
chance to defend himself. If Hildreth
got down into the valley, his testi-
mony would make short work of the
arson ring. He had the goods; he had
been a member of tho disreputable
crowd himself.
The mans steps were quite distinct
