Between March 8| and 14 there passed Ogden 1252 col- | onists, which is also an increase over the same week last year. The recent statements made by Passenger Traffic Manager McCormick of the Southern Pacific Company to the effect that the latter part of the year will witness the greater number of colonists coming westward is being already supportad by the numerous inquiries made at the company’s offices in the East relative to travel during that time of the year. —_————— AGED WOMAN FATALLY HURT TRYING TO BOARD A CAR Mrs. Catherine Kane Falls to the Pavement and Recelves Severe Fracture of Skull.

So close is the diverting a few feet of egrth intervenes be- [ teen the north side of the big ditch d the south side of the small ditch Storm water and the action of the tides | through the tidal canal are gradually | undermining the diverting ditch and engineers who have inspected the ex- isting conditions say that if some meas- ures are not taken the water and debris of Sausal Creek will in time make their way into the tidal canal. In speaking of the matter City Engineer W. R Poyser said: There is & very noticeable washing away of the north bank of the tidal canal, close to the south wall of the diverting ditch. As the bottom of thc ditch is much higher than that of the canal a break in the ditch is very apt to occur and then the slickens of Sausal Creek wouid enter directly into the tidal canal and impair the value of that waterway, on which the Government expended so much money. I believe that a mistake was made in construct- ing the diverting ditch so near to the north bank of the tidal canal.” ——————————— PREPARI TO SOVEREIGN LODGE Twenty Thousand Dollars to Be Ex- pended in Entertaining the Dis- tinguished Odd Fellows.

HAS MAR- l * & Miss Mae Ethel Rouse -of Oakland Is Really Mrs. “Johnny” More. — OAKLAND, March 17.—“Johnny” More is married. “Johnny” More, hero of the California football gridiron, so- ciety man, fraternity man, Golden Bear man, Skull and Keys man, idol of the university campus, is a benedict, and the news has just leaked out. But “Johnny” won't saw a word about it. He's as reticent as an oyster. He won't say when it happened. He won't say where it happened. He will not tell the preacher’s name. He knows the word has gone out and been phssed along the line. All his fraternity broth- ers at the Chi Phi house know about it and did know about it a long time ago, but even to them “Jéhmny” has confided nothing. When a friend asked him to-day for details he said: “Nothing doing.” The girl in the case was Miss Mae Ethel Rouse of Oakland. She shines in Ozkland society, is handsome a her parents are Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Rouse of 683 Thirty-fourth street. Her father is a commission merchant. As the story goes, “Johnny” More and the former Miss Rouse, who had been courting through all of the young man’s college days, went to San Rafael one day some sixteen months ago and were married. This is all anybody in- terested will admit. _Mr. and Mrs. More are living at the Rouse home. It is understood, how- ever, that there is something to settle on the parental side of the question and that several conferences have been held between young More and his fath- er, who came up from the south to talk it over with his son. More comes of an interesting family and there is a glamour of romance about the doings of his immediate an- cestors. His father is John F. More, a brother of the late Henry A. More, who made a fortune raising sheep and cattle on the island of Santa Rosa, off the Scuthern California, coast. When Henry More died there was a scramble among the relatives for his million< dollar estate. A bitter struggle in the courts ensued, the brothers and sisters of the deceased taking sides. No soon- er was this struggle ended than an- other grew out of the desire to share in the estate of an unmarried sister who died, and that disagreement is still being fought cut in the Alameda Coun- ty courts. Since coming to the university More has been exceedingly popular. His pep- ularity was won on the football field, upon which he has been a hero for four years.
