JACK IOXDOV FINDS SNARK IS TOO TAMK. i tarts Overland to Oregon Willi Four 1 Hulf llroken Mustangs and I Itoad Wagon. SAN ' FRANCISCO. June 2. Jack I London is off again. Having escaped the perils of the sea he is now risking the greater dangers of the land. I The cranky and uncertain Snark was a haven of refuge compared to j the craft the novelist started on a voyage of discovery yesterday along the bard roads of the northern coast the roads that hang over abysses or look down sheer to the breakers. The daring baiter of Judge Samuels has taken reins in hand and is lo drive four mustangs up into Oregon, over into Nevada and back through the Slerrus to his home. The mustangs he has broken or half, broken himself, and he feels he can make them obey hiB rein-hand, though with others they would be skittish, obdurate, balky, run-away. The four cayuses have been given the names King, Prince Milga, the Rabbit, and Sonoma Maid, and they were hitched to a Btout wagon thit was equipped with comforts and con veniences for a three-monthB' camp ing trip. When they gaily left the London ranch near Glen Ellen Mrs. London and a Japanese servant accompanied the relnsman-wrlter to share hiB dan gers .and have the Joys of his experi ences. The novelist expects to pick up lots of "copy" for new Btories, as he will seek the less known routes of travel, where ."characters" lurk at the cross roads and weird, strange adventures look down from lone cabins and half deserted camps.
