SONG BIRDS OF MILL VALLEY. Large Number of Imported Singers to Be Gwen Their Liberty in Marin County. MILL VALLEY, Car., Jan. 30.—It will be pleasing information to the lovers of birds to know that the attempt of the citi- | zens of Mill Valley in raising and import- ing feathered songsters hss met with | greater success than the projectors of the | enterprise expected. Anfon Michalitschke, the secretary of the Society for the Accii- mation and Protection of Singing Birds of | Mill Valley, has just filed a report of the | work accomplished by the organization since its inception. The birds now confined in a large aviary on the Barkan property in, Mill Valley will be given their iiberty on the 15th of February. Since their atrival ‘in Mill t Valley only six nave died. One. thrush | and two finches died the first week, hay- | ing been unable to stand’the long trip | froth Europe. The same number and kind werekilled by sparrowhawks, who.made | violent attacks upon tbe birds in the avi- | ary, compelling (he society to erect extra nets as safeguards. The birds have found Mill Valley cli- | mate suitable, and the skylarks which were released last September are fre- quently seen flying overhead. They are also increasing in number, and the mem- bers of the bird society are having small houses built in the trees on their prop- erty, where the ‘imported songsters can live and find protection from the bluejays and sparrow-hawks. Mr. Michalitschie in. his report advises the society to in- crease the bounty paid for the scalps of | bluejays killed in Mill Valley. | Tue birds which will be reieased in Feb- ruary are of different varieties — gold- finches, thrushes, skylarks and chaffinches being the most prominent. The success which has crowned the work of the so- ciety -has encouraged the members to make arrangements for the importation of another large consignment of the feathered beautiesin the fall. In the mean- time the slaughter of sparrow-hawks, bluejays and other obnoxious birds will be prosecuted unmercifully. —_— To Beaw'ify Santa Cruz SANTA CRUZ, Can, Jan. 30.—The Santa Cruz Improvement Society, an or- ganization composed of women, and which accomplished a great deal of good in this town a few years ago, has been revived, and is planning some valuable wopk.

LOS ANGELES, CaL., Jan. 30.—Sound- ings off Senta Monica and in the outer harbor site’at San Pearo have been com- pleted as far as directed by the Harbor Board. ‘The United States steamer Ged- ney, the vessel used by the eugineers, is now moored in the inner harbor, and the results of the soundings are being platted. The work of platting consists of locating the various soundings on a map or chart for ready reference. This is done with data obtained from rough notes made when the soundings were in progress. The lines of the soundings are at distances of about one-eighth of a mile apart. Soundings aong these lines were made at long or short interyals, according to the depth of water. At greater depths they were made further apart. As the soundings were made to ascertain the depth of the water from its surface to the bottom; pains were taken not to permit the lead to sink into the mud atany place. __The results’ would not, therefore, show the character of the bottom. The results of the soundings show cor- paratively littie change from the measure- mants recorded after the lastsurvey. The principal differences noted are in the outer harbor site in San Pedro, near the mouth of theinner harbor, the Gov- ernment jetty having produced a material change. Signals have been posted along the sides of the inner harbor and sound- ings are to be madein it. They will prob- ably be closer together than those in the outer harbor site.

So e FRESWO FORGERY CASE. Sheriff Scott Tells of the Futile Search for William Wootton, the Missing Rancher. . FRESNO, CL., Jan. 30.—The most im- portant wituess in the Sanders trial to- day was Sheriff Jay Scott, who_testified that he had made a thorough search for Wootton in the southérn part of the State, whence came letters purporting to have been signed by the rancher to various per- sons in this county. Not a trace of the missing ranchercould | he find. No one had seen Wootton in | the cities where the letters had been mailed. No one could be found who had seen John Knausch or R. L. /Graves, thfi two capitalists of whom Sanders tells. Attorney Short resumed the cross-ex- amination of George Wiseman when conrt conyened in the morning. “T have bad mews for vou,” the witness had said to Sanders. *“Uncle Bily (Woot- ton) is sick.” : Sanders had then replied, hanging his head sadly: * “Well, #t can’t b> helped.” “What do you think of him?” the wit- ness had asked his son, who was standing near. He referred to Sanders. “Give him fopejiencugh and he'll hang himself,” was the yonng man’s reply. Attorney Short quickly moved that this testimony of the witness be stricken out, and the court so ordered. Prior Nance and wife testified that they lived in Hills Valley, and from their place led the trail across the mountain to Wootton’s house. It was over tnis trail that, Sanders says, Knausch and Graves walked with their bas of $20,000 ift gold, when they came to Wootton’s place and bonght the ranch from him. _Nance and his wife both swore that they were positive that no one had gone over the trail that day. Sheriff Scott then told the story in de- tail of his futile search for Wootton, Knausch and Graves throughout South- ern California. St SWINDLERS AT STOCKTON.
