CALIFORNIA LETTER.
Auberry, California, in the Mountains
AT The End of The Trail !"
Editor Tribune and Friends

Auberry, California, in the Mountains
At The End of The Trail. "
Editor Tribune and Friends:
This is the closing hour of Easter Sun
day and | thought might write some
thing of interest to The Tribune readers.
II has been an ideal day as far as the
weather is concerned, so much so that
we had a picnic dinner under the grand
old pines and oaks. with beautiful
carpet Of green grass meath our feet
and flowers in rich profusion. We were
joined by neighbor family and some
twenty friends from the city of Fresno,
fifty miles away. We filled long table
laden down with all kinds of Injuries
and dainty dishes. for which the ladies'
of our camp cannot be excelkd in pro-
ducing Great lunches of beautiful red
blossoms decorated the table.
Five minutes walk from our home
(shack) brought us to this enchanting
picnic spot To describe the beaties of
nature right here would require a more
fluent pen than mine. Five minutes
climb would bring one to rocks upon
rocks and heaps of rocks, over which it
is almost impossible to scale. In the
opposite direction five minutes walk
brings one to spot where you can look
down over rocks upon rocks 300 feet
upon the wild, rushing, turbulent San
Joaquin river which, right there, pro-
pels the mighty wheels that create the
$1,000 horse power of electrical current
over the mountain tops to the great
San Joaquin valley beyond
am charmed as | look out upon my |
beautiful spring garden, such as per-
haps may be seen around Dear Old |
Mineral Point" in June. We have en-
joyed this luxury all the winter through,
and ! can scarcely wait for the winter
produce to get out of the way for me |
to replant my spring varieties And |
this is "Kerckhoff Camp at the End of
the Trail
Now, just. little about what is
Transporting in our camp: Though so .
absolutely isolated something of inter
est transpires every day. We have had |
recently three or four weddings, the .
young-men of the camp going out and |
bringing in the fair maidens from the |
valley or some mountain ranch. 1t keeps
our son, the superintendent, busy plan
ming for providing of homes for the
newly weds. Last night we celebrated |
the coming of one of these by giving
them a real old fashioned charivari.
then fine supper at our little social
hall, and at the same time presenting
them with an elegant electrical kitchen
device.
We scarcely know when Sunday
comes. We do distinguish it from other
days by changing our clothes and hav-
ing bath, for you know the wheels
must be kept whirling or the churches
would not be Illuminated OF, the street
car run to convey the good people to
worship. So you may readily see that
it is difficult for US to literally obey ALL
of the ten commandments.

Jubilee Singers, representing Fisk
University of Nashville, Tenn, gave
one of their concerts which have long
since become famous at St. Paul A.
M. E. Church, Leffingwell and Law
ton avenues, to a packed house. These
singers are doing for the University
what the original singers did in years
gone by, creating helpful friends and
giving an uplift view to the possibili-
ties within the Negro in places where
it is most in need. No travelling organ
ization enjoys such position for such
a peculiar task as the Fisk University
singers From time to time the Uni
versity sends out these young men
and women on their peculiar mission,
and while changes in the personnel Of
the organization occurs occasionally,
there is never change in the quality
of their work, purpose Of their enter
tainments or the beneficial results of
their tours. They occupy a peculiar

BOY PLEADS GUILTY
TO Theft OF SIS and
IS LATER FOUND DEAD
preston News service)

MADISON, N. j., Oct. EARLY
last Tuesday evening a 1S-year-old
boy, James Brown, stood before Re-
corder Curry and pleaded guilty to
the theft of SIS from Miss May Dix
on, a school teacher A few hours
later his mangled body was found on
the tracks Of the Lackawanna Rail
road, where he had been killed The
police believe that in a fit of>childish
remorse, the boy threw himself in
front of train.
The boys body was discovered ly-
ing across the tracks by L. E. Berry
after midnight. Berry is a railroad
engineer. He could not halt his
train in time to avoid striking the
body. 1t is said that the body was
cold at the time, however, and it is
believed that young Brown had been
killed by train that passed over his
body an hour earlier.
Brown was arrested at the request
| Vi MID. IAdL0 IlODluoOll, LluduI Olll-
cer 1t is alleged that he had taken
the money from Miss Dixons pocket
book at the school. The lad was
found attempting to buy a ticket to
a moving picture show and arrested.
The officer found the pocketbook in
the boys possession and took him to
headquarters.
Recorder Curry directed the boy to
report at police headquarters for sixty
nights and pay five cents each night
and to attend church and Sunday
school for year, and to go with the
Chief of Police that very night to the
school and apologize to Miss Dixon.
1t is said that after leaving the court
room the boy did not go home. but is
supposed to have wandered about
town for several hours. He lived with
his father and sister, his mother be
ing dead, in Belmont avenue, and
would not have had to cross the rail
road tracks to get home.

" The federation is firmly Of the
opinion that the administration Of the
law is vested solely and entirely in
the duly elected or appointed officers
of the law, and that those who as
members of any secret organization
assume to usurp the functions proper
ly belonging to legal authorities invite
mob rule and create in mems minds a
disrespect for and disregard Of duly
constituted authority. The federation
is also of the opinion that it is not
conducive to government by law and
the maintenance of peaceful and safe
conditions in the community to have
members of any organization parade
the streets so disguised that their
identity can not be discovered when
such DISCUSSES are adopted for the pur-
pose of inspiring the thought of belief
that the disguised individuals repre-
sent an invisible government"

 WA will broadcast the acts from the Lyric theatre shortly after 1t opens. This makes Birmingham well equipped with radio programs At 2:30 each day market reports are given out from W. s.

Last Tuesday night the ether had new ripple in 1t, one that made those who were listening hear a sharp. clear whistle which they tuned" properly and heard the words, "Thls is W l A G, the radio phone broadcasting station of the Matthews Electric company" A very delightful program followed which the thousands of listeners noticed had unusual volume of sound, very natural tones, no echo and perfect modulation.
 No doubt you would like to know something about this station as to how 1t is built. The station is now operating on six bo-watt tubes, three of which are used as oscillators, two of which are used AS modulators and one of which is used as a speech amplifier. The plates of these tubes arc furnished with current from a 1,60o volt generator. The present radiation is five amperes. In short while, however, the counterpoise will be changed in such a manner as to raise this radiation.
 The station occupies three rooms. The first is where the mecha nical part of the station is located. the

second Is where 1t Is controlled, and the third Is where the entertainers sing, play, etc. The panel on which the instruments are mounted Is very neatly and attractively arranged in the wall so that 1t takes up very little room in the operating room. In this operating room all of the microphones are controlled by switches. In this same room is phonog graph for tuning in, and the microphone used by the announcer is there also.
 The third Is the one that attracts the most attention of the ladies who come to sing or visit at the station. It is very carefully designed to void echo and to make the proper acoustics. This room Is draped with five layers of very heavy cloth and then over this Is a cloth of blue. Some of the ladies. that have seen the station can tell you how this cloth is draped and what kind it Is, but I don't understand that kind of machinery. All I know IS that 1t is as pretty as can be and gives the desired effect concerning the sound.
 This station will broadcast every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday

quick replies but the one we got last Saturday broke all previous rec ords.
 The boy that has this distinction is Warren Snead, son of MT. and Mrs W. W. Snead. 1926 Eliventh avenue, south. Warren was the lucky boy last Saturday and he left The Age Herald with his set about noon. Well, Warren called us up at about 3 o'clock saying that he had his set working fine and had just heard the market reports.
 That must be a set worth trying for, fellows. Every one has worked right off the bat" Come down here next Saturday morning at Il o'clock. Maybe you are lucky.
 The weather is getting more and more favorable now as the days and nights pass and you will all rotice you have an audion set that you will be able to hear more and more stations. We are anxious to know just what stations are being re- ceived by the local boys and would appreciate list from each of you as to what stations you have heard lately. See who is receiving the most stations and the farthest ones. Address this to Radio Editor, Age- Herald, Birmingham.
 Radio is being used in many cases to entertain and make happy those who are not fortunate enough to enjoy some of life's pleasures. This new craze that hit the world so suddenly has it's charm even to those who can benefit from other entertainment and to those who are deprived of the other amusements can sit and listen to radio without any exertion or danger of having 1t do them harm.
 Jesse Yeates, Jr., who made him. self an Age-Herald set, has made a friend of his very happy by instali- ing for her radio set over which she hears the programs from To- cal broadcasting station. Jane Gregory. 1056 Thirty second street, south, is the one for whom Jesse put up this set. At the present time she cannot enjoy the pleasures of the out of doors and this set brings in her window more pleasure than anyone can imagine.
 Willard Estes, whoSD just in the early summer, met with an accident. which keeps him from enjoying any thing out of the house, has been en- toying all of the local concerts over
