Tree That Once Was Indians’
Lookout Aids Fire Fighters
LAKE ARROWHEAD, Cal., Sept.
14. (/P)—One of the valuable aids to
the United States forestry service in
this mountain resort section is a pine
tree nearly 200 feet high, on the
north shore of Lake Arrowhead. The
tree serves the ranger lookout even
as it served Indian warriors scores
of years ago in tribal wars. At the
base of the pine signs blazed in the
past by the Indians may be seen dim
ly.
Today keen-eyed rangers keep con
tinual watch in the upper branches
for forest fires. They 'are equipped
with powerful glasses and telephones,
in modern contrast to the sharp
eyes of the aboriginal lookout and
his crude wig-wag system.

and Cambridge make as his native
town.

Chapel, Cambridge, at the age of 12,
and that Cambridge gave him a de
gree in music when, at the age of
21, he became organist to the Chap
el Royal, and these facts were tak
en as disproving the Oxford claim.
By accident a chance searcher in
the records of the City Church of
Oxford has found entry of the bap
tism of Orlando *Gibbons under date
of December 25, 1583, and as the
name is no usual one it seems cer
tain that the entry refers to the
great church composer.
In his own time Gibbons was
known more as an organist than as
a composer, for he had “the best
hand in England./ His compositions
are few, but they are declared un
surpassed in dignity, propriety and
beauty. His anthems, “Oh, Clap Your
Hands,” “Hosanna” and “Almighty
and Everlasting,” and his madrigals,
“The Silver Swan and “Oh, That
the Learned Poets,’ are regarded
the high points of the ancient, sim
ple and musical art of England.
Fake Call to Settle Boundary
Draws Irish Farmers to Town
BELFAST, Sept. 14. (/P)—Farmers
on both sides of the Tyrone-Donegal
border have been the victims of a
boundary commission hoax. Letters
which had been posted in Strabane
summoned them to a meeting to give
evidence regarding the proposed
transference of this particular dis
trict and instructing them to prepare
a statement giving particulars bear
ing on the question.
All shades of politics were repre
sented in those getting communica
tions and the recipients, foolscap
sheets in hand, flocked int Strabane
on the appointed day. They wTere
greatly surprised to discover there
was no one at the Town Hall to re
ceive them and it then dawned upon
them that they had been hoaxed.
They rapidly disappeared and their
explanation to their friends was that
their visit to Strabane was connect
ed with something entirely differ
ent.

Bullets for Camels
BERLIN, Sept. 14. (/P)—In Abys
sinia camels represent the most val
uable possession of the people, in
many instances being used as the
equivalent of money. Dr. Lutz Heck,
son of the director of the Berlin
Zoological Garden, learned this while
in quest of animals for the zoo. How
ever, he found some Abyssinians who
regarded rifle cartridges higher in
value than the animals. He suc
ceeded in getting six dromedaries,
which now are in the Berlin zoo,
for 15 cartridges.
Emigration to Italy
On the Decrease
ROME, Sept. 14. (/p)—Laws of the
United States and other nations out
side Europe which restrict immigra
tion, are advanced as the reason for
decreased Italian emigration during
the first four months of 1925. In
that time 118,000 Italians left to
make their homes elsewhere, com
pared with 146,000 during the first
four months of 1924.
Statistics show that a larger per
centage than formerly of the emi
grants are going to other European ,
countries.
Oldest Steamer Burned
KOEPING, Sweden, Sept. 14. (/P)—
The steamer Fenix, which, it was
claimed was the oldest in the world
in active service, recently was de
stroyed by fire. Built in 1848 at Mo
tala wharf, the boat had been mak
ing regular trips between this city
and Stockholm. Since its launch
ing it had been rechristened several
times and was rebuilt in 1900.
At the time of its destruction there
were 16 passengers besides the crew
aboard, all of whom escaped.
Oscar Dahl, proprietor of the Sew
ard hotel, returned to town Sunday
from a hunting expedition spent iu
the wilds of the lower Lake Kenai
country. Mr. Dahl was absent from
his hotel duties for three days.
Miss Mary M. Monagale, left Sew
ard yesterday for Mile 7, where she
will teach school. School work will
be carried on in the old building
until the new' one, now under con
struction, has been completed.
BRUSH FIRE NEAR JESSE
LEE HOME MONDAY NITE
A brush fire where clearing is uW
der way, near the Jesse Lee Home
site called out the fire department
last night at about 10 o’clock. A
fast run was made to the scene of
the blaze but as no apparent haz
ard was apparent, the water w'as
not turned on. It was thought, the
strong wind blowing might possibly
throw a spark from the burning
brush, into the new structures. Sev
eral watchmen were left on the
job throughout the night.
For killing her husband with a roll

I take one
