HA COST 70 HAYE SECO B SIUADRON PROVES A SUCCESS Baron de Forest Is Happy With New Wife Despite Predictions of Friends. Pacific Slope Boards of Trade Convince Navy De- partment Ships Are Needed OREGON COMING HOME —_— ¢ Newly Built Charleston Is to Come West Instead of Joining Atlantic Fleet B Special Dispatch to The Call. VALLEJO, Feb. The '~ movement started at Bremerton, Wash.,, and sec- onded by the commercial interests in this city for the enlargement of the Pa- cific squadron nas received & temporary setback owing to the grave condition of affairs in China. Vallejoites have been advised that as soon as the readjustment of affairs will permit the matter will be given serious consideration by the de- partment. The movement started by the Bremer- ton and Seattle Boards of Trade and taken up at Washington by Senator Piles of Washington, assisted by the members of the Oregon, Washington and Califor- nia Congressional delegations, will no doubt bear fruit. The plan to keep the newly completed cruiser Charleston, promised for the flagship of the Pacific squadron, with the North Atlantic fleet, has been nipped in the bud through the activity of the Western Congressmen, and it is announced that the new cruiser will soon be on her way around the Horn. She will be accompanied by the gunboat Castine. Commander Cameron Winslow will bring the Charleston around. Advices received here state that the famous battleship Oregon, in which Cali- fornians take so much pride, will return to San Francisco harbor in March after several years’ absence. She comes to San Francisco with a great number of expired term officers and men and will make quite a stay in the harbor before she will leave for Bremerton navy yard, where ghe will be placed out of commis- sion and rebuilt, two years having been allowed for this job. It is the opinion of the naval officers here that the policy of the department to combine the strength of the navy in two large fleets means the es- tablishment of a fleet on this coast that will be a worthy rival of the famous North Atlantic squadron. —_— Celia, from Port Harford, for Albion.

WHOSE MARRIAGE TO BARON DE FORREST HAS PROVED A HAPPY ONB, DESPITE THE DIRE PREDICTIONS MADE BY FRIENDS OF THE COUPLE. Special Dispatch to The Call. LONDON, Feb. 3.—When the Heon. Ethel Gerard, daughter of the late Lord Gerard, married Baron Arnold de For- est in the spring of 1904, there were many who predicted that it would prove an unhappy match. The Baron ‘was not properly credited with the pos- session of those domestic virtues which are essential to the enjoyment of a life of connubial bliss. He had been mar- ried before, but that marriage had been speedily proved a failure. In 1903, when only 22 years old, he had married the wealthy widow of Albert Menier of chocolate fame, and in less than a year she had obtained a divorce from uim. She was devoted to horse racing—she owns one of the finest racing stables.in France—and he to yachting. He would not give up the sea for her and she de- clined to abandon the race track for him, Their diversity of tastes was one of the things which decided them to cut adrift from one another. As the adopted son—and the reputed natural son—of the late Baron Hirsch, the ex-husband possessed a fortune estimated at $60,000,000. One matrimonial fajlure does not count for much in the matri- monial market against a man who can draw checks on a sum like that. It is lit- tle to be wondered at, considering how L GRRC DG Tt L such things are viewed in high soclety, that the Hon. Pthel Gerard—or rath- er, her mother, Lady Gerard—decided that for the sake of the cash the risk of a second failure was worth taking. But it is pleasant to be able to record that thus far there are no indications that the see- ond marriage is going to prove a second fallure. They appear to get along to- gether first rate. . Although Lady de For- est, who comes of a sporting family, was |an’ enthusiastic horsewoman before her wedding, she has since developed a great fondness for a “life on-the ocean wave, and accompanies -her husband on most of his trips on his palatial thousand-ton steam yacht Honor. Forest was created an hereditary baron of the Austrian empire by the Emperor Francls Joseph,, 'and by the late Queen Victoria’s Royal License he 18 permitted to use the same title in the United Kingdom. He has extensive estates in Austria, rents an estate in England from Lord Northbrook, and is numbered among the friends of the King. It was reported some time ago that he intend- ed to emulate Jacques Lebaudy and found a kingdom of his own in the Sahara. That Baron de Forest has de- nied. He has no intention of squander- ing his money on that sort of folly.
