Many Dead And
 injured in Train
 Wreck In Calf.

LOS ANGELES. Sept. q, - Ten persons are dead and about forty are injured following the telescoping of two Southern Pac- fife trains in Imperial Valley. at Tortuga, a switching point, elev- en miles East, in land.
 The identified dead are H., R. Parsons, firemen of the West bound "Argonaut" and P E. Mar tin fireman of the California train: Robert N. Richardson, en- gineer of the California express, all of Los Angeles Mrs. J. A. Hall, Emma Hall of Loma Linda, and Florence Tator of RineIbeck New York were also killed
 Besides the identified dead, there were four unidentified wo- men. Most of the dead and in- jured were aboard the California train.
 Officials after preliminary ex animation, said that the tragedy had apparently been caused by faulty switch whcih shunted the Argonaut onto siding where the "California" waited for it to pass on the main line.
 Among the passengers was J. H. Dyer vice president of the Southern Pacific, who was unin- jured. He took charge of the res cue work, and reported that the work was delayed by the fact of many being trapped in the twist ed steel of the heavy cars, nee essitating the use of acetylene torches to cut away he metal.

No Sign Isadore
 Fix Discovered
 Party of Three

Ernest Lottsfeld, of the Alaska Road Commission, who was a member of the searching party flown to the Kougarok river to look for the missing Isadore Fix, returned yesterday to Nome, af- ter fruitless attempt.
 He repored that search was in- stituted by Harry Longley and a native and himself, about the vicinity of where the Fix boat was moored. No trace of Isadore could be found, he declared.
 An examination of the boat revealed most of the supplies and equipment, and everything in ship shape order. It might have ap- peared, he said that Fix had been wet, because his extra pair of underdrawers were gone, and his wet ones were in the boat.
 The boat was rac,, sS to stake which seemed to point in the dir ection of Whaleys and Nelson's camp on the Noxapaga, about 20 miles distant.
 The men floated the boat down as far as Bunker Hill, from which point MT. Lottsfeld came on into town, the others remain ing there, ~~
 1t was understood today that pilot Sig Wien of the Wien Al aska Airlines expects to fly to Rainbow Camp, pick up Frank Whaley for an observer and then reconnoiter over the country be- tween that point and the point where the Fix boat was moored.

Pedro FACES listened to the re-

dismissed them that they might eat
and rest after their all-night jour-
ney.
Striding to the spring, the Cover

smoothed his hair with his fingers
and wrung his beard. Then, cup
ping both hands to mouth, he
whooped until the silent morning
rang and echoed.
Rise, my children! Rise and

prayers, and hear the tidings! To
night there will arrive here the cav
alcade of Captain Canete Rise,
beggars, vagabonds!"
Curiosity overcame laziness, and
soon the camp was buzzing with an
ticipatory preparations. The arrival
of Canete meant news from home
letters, messages from Spain and
Mexico. It meant a fiesta, for there
were women in the Captains train,
surely the Governors lady would
bring maids!
Don Pedro moved with dynamic
energy. His eyes glowed, his step
was light, his energy boundless and
his orders legion.
Indians were dispatched into the
canons for deer, quail, rabbit, ante
lope. Others gathered wood and
piled a mighty pyre on the beach.

any little miss will be proud to wear.

classes its wearer among the best
dressed set. Any little girl would
treasure the separate bolero, or call
it Elton jacket if you will. 1t is al
most sure to prove her constant
companion, for being a separate
item it can be donned with any
dress. Grand to wear under ones
coat, too, if the temperature goes
down!
No doubt you will feel the urge to
knit more than one of these cum
ming jackets for they can be made
to add such fetching color touch
to any dress. The combination of
a plaided knit dress with a mono
tone bolero as pictured reaches
high note of chic.
The little jumper dress to the
right is sure to appeal to mothers
who knit. 1t is so very practical,
since it can be worn over any
blouse, and that means little daugh-
ter can feel spic and span in a re-
freshing change each day. This par
ticular jumper dress which you see
pictured is knitted of softest shet-

scented by two friendly enemies, frail old

After telling Sierra he is sending to Mexico
for his wife and son. whom he has not seen

fornia. Don Pedro sends for Sierra, telling
him that two priests are on their way from
Mexico with Eulalia and young Pedro and
that he is leaving to meet them. FACES en-.
cages a young Indian girl, Indizuela, as
maid for Eulalia. Eulalia sails from San
Bias. 1t is desolate trip. From the port of
Loreto, large cavalcade loaded with Eu-
lalia's party starts out for the long overland
trip. Eulalia, accustomed to luxury and
comfort, bitterly regrets having been per-
Suaded to come. The two priests, Fray
Mariana and Fray Bartolomeo, call on her
and arouse her suspicious as to their genu-
ineness. AS the cavalcade stops at various
missions, Eulalia hears rumors of the ap-
proach of her husband.

"FUSSY FEMININE"
TREND COMES BACK

Girls who like to wear fussy, ul-
ira feminine clothes for evening
wear will have every opportunity to
do so this winter. It's time for
glistening and slinky satins, RUSTY
taffetas and soft, feminine nets.
Evening gowns are styled with
full, flowing skirts. Some affect tight
bodices and a tiny suggestion of
hoops in the f1ared skirt. Others
cling to the Empire silhouette idea,
with close-ftting lines nodded to the
figure.
Many of the gowns fashioned of
net show skirts which are complete
ly ruffied. A few feature the PAN
nier extension at the hipline, fiat
tering departure for those with slim
hips. Black and white are especial
ly effective color choices in this
material, with pastels also good.

At last the Governor, having as
signed to each his task, turned to
one he would entrust only to HIM
self.
A large round tent which had re-
manned rolled and packed on the
journey, had been pitched some dis
lance away from the camp. He en-
tered it, and almost fell over tiny
Indian boy, naked as a rabbit,
brown as berry, with wild bright
eyes.
"Ah, Escabellito! Lazy little one,
begone and eat thy tortillas!
Wouldst sleep all day."
The child scampered toward the
cooking fire, and the Governor went
to work with the happy expression of
man performing a labor of love.
He began opening bundles that had
been a mystery on the trip as they
had never been opened, and had
taxed the pack-animals to the ears.
There were bright blankets of In
dian weave, supple serapes in gay
colors, skins of mountain lion, wild
cat and bear, robes of otter and
rabbit. These he spread on the
ground until it was covered, ar
ranging and rearranging until their
disposal suited his fancy. And as
he worked he sang a little soldiers
song beneath his breath.
Eulalia had seen a painting of a
lady of the French court dressed in
a green velvet riding habit, with
voluminous draped skirt, tight fit
ting basque trimmed in rich cream
lace, on her head a saucy velvet
hat with nodding, sweeping plume.
A clever Partisan sempstress, ma
rooned in Mexico City, had copied
the costume for Eulalia.
But she had been hustled away
into exile, and one of her regrets at
leaving was that she had never worn
the green velvet habit. Neverthe-
less it was packed in a leather
trunk, which Angustias had marked
with green cross in a circle. And
when the Governor of California
greeted his lady wife he would see,
not bedraggled, travel-stained pill
grim in dusty black, her head COW
cred with rebozo like Mexican
peasant woman, but real lady of
high degree, her velvets green
against a white jennet, her proud
head high with nodding plumes. And
jeweled-
All, yes! She would wear her en-
eralds, of course. The heavy gold
set necklace, the long earrings, the
massive ring on her first finger.
Yes, the green was a happy
thought; green velvet and gems set
off a skin that is white and daz-
cling
Captain Canete rode ahead, his
perspiring brow furrowed with anx-
iety. BY all the saints, this was the
worst day of the entire journey! A
narrow trail zigzagged down the
side of mountain which seemed to
bulge over the'sea, thousands of feet
below; tortuous, treacherous trail,
so narrow it was necessary for the
cavalcade to travel in single file,
and so winding the animals had al
most to bend themselves double at
some turns.
When his thoughts permitted him,
he admired the Governors lady, rid
ing so calmly behind him, with new
er an outcry or even a gasp of
fear as her trembling horse avoided
