The trip over was made on the Hermosa, which was specially chartered for the occasion, and carried a large party. Sixty Y.M.C.A. boys are encamped on the island under the care of Dr. Wickett. They will break camp on Saturday and return home in the evening. A number of the excursionists returned home last evening. Others will remain until Saturday evening. Painful Accident While oiling a motor which is used for charging batteries at the Sunset telephone office in this city on Tuesday morning at 5 o'clock, Miss Mabel Wommer, night operator at the office, experienced a painful and serious accident. As she was stooping over the machine her hair was caught and was quickly wrapped around a rod that was revolving 1800 times a minute. She was alone in the building with both Taylor Working In On W.

No assays had made, but the quartz is well realized and will no doubt prove good milling values, perhaps since the vein at this point, at a depth of 150 feet faulted, and the 60 foot cut revealed the fact that it is scattered through the dike which it walled down almost present level.

As she was stooping over the machine her hair was caught and was quickly wrapped around a rod that was revolving 1800 times a minute. She was alone in the building, with both the office and outside doors locked, but her screams caused two men who happened along the street to break the doors open and free her. Her hair was wrapped tightly around the shaft, and that she was not scalped was due to the fact that the fuse blew out when her hair began wrapping around the rod, thus causing the current to be shut off. This was to have been Miss Wommer's last day at the office, as she expected to resign her position. She was taken to her home and is resting as well as could be expected. There are several cuts and bruises about her head and hands, and a large quantity of her back hair is torn off. Accidentally Killed In attempting to alight from a rapidly moving street car going south on the Central avenue line at Twenty-eighth street and Central avenue, Los Angeles, shortly after 9 o'clock Tuesday night, R. E. Batson, aged 55, a rancher of Santa Ana, missed his footing, slipped and was hurled to the pavement and fatally injured. Batson was picked up in an unconscious condition and hurried to the receiving hospital, where after an examination by Police Surgeon Wiley it was found he had sustained a basal fracture of the skull: He was bleeding from the ears and died shortly afterward without having regained consciousness. The dead man formerly lived at Visalia. He was a member of the Odd Fellows' lodge of Hiawatha, Kas., and has a brother, Ezra Batson, at Santa Ana. It is thought that Batson misjudged the speed of the car and stepped off, thinking the car was slowing up.

Big Water Strike BEAUMONT, Aug. 11—This m the workmen in the big water section 10 struck a mammoth water which speedily flooded th and drove the laborers out. The shaft has been troubled abundance of water from the ning, and it has required the se of a steam pump night and day the water down so that the world cavating could proceed.

New machinery has been teleg for and work cannot resume until pumping capacity of the engine been increased. A flow of over 100 inches has confidently expected and these m developments have convinced all servative persons that Beaumont become one of the best watered in the state.—A. J. BURDICK. The dead man formerly lived at Visalia. He was a member of the Odd Fellows' lodge of Hiawatha, Kas., and has a brother, Ezra Batson, at Santa Ana. It is thought that Batson misjudged the speed of the car and stepped off, thinking the car was slowing up. State Revenue from Forests In addition to the benefits secured by fire protection and by regulations which control the use of timberland and range so as to insure permanent supplies for local wants, the states having national forests now receive, under the new agricultural appropriation bill, 25 per cent of the gross proceeds derived from the sale of national forest resources. This amount, according to law, goes to offset any losses to the states through withdrawal of forest areas from taxation, and is devoted to public roads and schools. Several years ago complaints were made that the withdrawal of timberlands for forest purposes reduced the taxable areas of the states in which withdrawals were made. The forest service, quick to see the justice of these complaints, recommended at first that 10 per cent, and later 25 per cent, of the gross proceeds of the national forests be paid to the states. As a result, the states are assured of school and road funds, doubtless more certainly than they otherwise could have been, since the permanence of the forest resources is now secured by conservative management. Had the forests never been established, their resources would undoubtedly have been exhausted by hasty and improvident methods of exploitation, leaving the land wasted and unproductive.

Folding Crate Company F. P. Jayne, H. H. Crone and W. W. Crone have arrived with their families from San Francisco, and are now engaged in placing a carload of machinery in the Grimshaw warehouse on South Lemon street for the California Folding Crate company. This company has been organized by electing F. P. Jayne president, H. H. Crone vice president, A. Thomas treasurer, George Ross secretary. W. W. Crone will be manager of the factory. The company will be ready for business in thirty days, and will give employment at the outset to ten or twelve people. The crate to be manufactured is known as the Hutchinson patent, and the company has purchased the right to manufacture them in California and Colorado. The crates may be used for oranges, potatoes, celery, eggs or other articles. The crates are stapled with steel wire, and when empty may be folded flatwise. Thus crates used in shipping five carloads of potatoes may be returned in a single car. The weight of the crate is 11 pounds, while that of the common egg crate is 19½ pounds. Thus 100 crates weigh 850 pounds less than the ordinary egg crate. A folding crate is a novelty in this section, but the practicability of the crate soon to be manufactured here is such that it is believed it will soon displace the other kinds now in use in President at Well Pit Reduced inches of water being on the water company's rowther's place ceased flowday when the 18-inch brick distance of six feet into the bottom of the pit, putups out of commission.

A folding crate is a novelty in this section, but the practicability of the crate soon to be manufactured here is such that it is believed it will soon displace the other kinds now in use in many industries. They will be made of Oregon fir, and material will be shipped from San Pedro in carload lots. Speaking at the factory yesterday, Mr. Crone said he believed his company had located in the right place, and that a prosperous future awaited it. He and his associates were here for business, and had been met in liberal spirit by our citizens. He is a man of many years experience in the business, and will doubtless make a success of the enterprise. Columbia's Big Well Fullerton is the scene of a strange freak in oil. The Columbia's big flowing well on the corner of its land, that came in in November, 1906, with a daily output of 1300 barrels, and has produced to date between 500,000 and 600,000 barrels, is the performer. For a long time its output had been down to 500 to 600 a day. Early last week it suddenly turned loose with a roar and for two hours threw oil at a furious rate, which ran down the canyon. Most of it was recovered and pumped into the tanks. The amount was fully 1500 barrels. Then the well began to subside and now, and since then, it has been yielding close to 1300 barrels, the amount it started with. No reason has been discovered for its course. On the contrary there was reason to expect a heavy and permanent decline long ago. The Santa Fe has drilled two and the C. V. Hall one, all three from 3000 to 3300 feet, while the Columbia is only about 2800, yet it looks as though they have failed absolately to affect it, although within 300 feet or thereabouts in each case.

Serious Accident Leon Fiala, an employee of the Home telephone company, while stringing wires on a newly set pole at the corner of North and West streets on Friday afternoon, met with a painful accident, being thrown to the ground a distance of thirty feet and for a time rendered unconscious. Fiala was at the top of the pole engaged in attaching wires when a Mexican woman drove by in a buggy: A guy rope lay across the street, and Fiala called to her not to drive over it. Failing to understand him she continued on her way, the rope being caught in the wheels and pulling down the pole. Fiala tried to jump, but was unable to do so because of being strapped to the pole. He fell upon his back, the pole upon him. He was rendered unconscious, and for a time it was thought he had been fatally injured. He was picked up by his two associates and brought home. Medical assistance was at once summoned. It was found no bones had been broken and that the extent of his injury was a severe bruising and shaking up. He was confined to his bed until Monday, when he was again able to be about. Lawn hose and lawn sprinklers of the best makes at Nagel's.
