TION, May 24. (Special.) After
being' without a power life-saving
boat since the wreck of the oil tank
steamer Rosecrans, when 24 of the crew
of 25 men were lost. Captain Wicklund
and his crew of courageous. life-savers
have a new and up-to-date lifeboat.
The new boat, finished throughout In
mahogany ' and equipped with a 40-
horsepower engine, was received at the
station about ten days ago. After go
ing over the boat and paying special
attention to the engine,' Captain Wick
lund sent the-boat to Astoria and bad
propeller guards put on, so that In pass
ing over, and among, fishing nets off
the mouth of the Columbia River the
propeller 'would not' tear the nets.
The Dreadnought II Captain Wlck-
lund.havlng the, consent of the Wash
ington authorities to rename the new
boat was brought back to the station
last Monday, placed on the ways and
was given another thorough inspection
and -her brass and woodwork glvert a
final polish. -
The first trial spin of the Dread
nought II was had last Tuesday, and
Captain Wicklund, accompanied by his
crew, consisting of Carl Pearson, B. C
Anderson, R. A. Pagjoman, F. L. Allen,
C. W. Patterson, Charles Thompson,
F. N. Weaton. Leonard Pearson and Al
bert Storm, took a 2o-mile cruise, vis
iting the fishing boats at the end of
the jetty. Fort Canby live-saving sta
tion and the Desdemona light
While on the cruise Captain wick
lund took his crew to the scene of the
wrecked Rosecrans, the mainmast of
the wrecked steamer standing out of
the water to mark the grave of her
crew.
Several members of the life-saving
crew took advantage of Lie quiet sea

When the Rosecrans was wrecked a
small Christmas tree, which the crew
of the oil steamer had lashed to the
top . of the mainmast and which, in
spite of the wind and waves, passed
through the ordeal uninjured, went
down with the ship. It recently was
rescued by Captain Anderson, one of
the men who risked life and limb In
an effort to save the sailors of the
Rosecrans. It must have been an almost
Impossible feat to place the little tree

LUCKY BALDWIN'S DAUGHTER ASKS
POSSESSION OF HER DAUGHTER
Samuel M. "Wilson, Son of John Scott Wilson, Said to Have Obtained Divorce and Married Again-Much Chagrin
- - Expressed Because Legislature Failed to Pass-Resolution Asking for Session at Goat Island.
SAN FKANCISCU. May Z. tspeciai.j
The Hull McClaughrys are again
on the front pages of the newspa
pers. Financial disagreement is at the
bottom of their domestic, discord. Mrs.
McClaughry is a. daughter of the late
Lucky Baldwin and has recently come
Into possession of a fortune of some
thing like $10,000,000. Mr. McClaughry
Is a poor man and until recently was
one of the employes of the San Fran
cisco Postoff Ice. . ,
They agreed to disagree, but the pos
session of the children is the point at
issue. Mrs. McClaughry Is willing to
provide her husband with a handsome
ncome for lire or to mane mm a gin
Outright of $250,000. . But she is un
willing to buy her -children, and the
possession of the cnuaren is tne Key
to the dispute. '
Just at present McClaughry has the
children with his people at Gait, near
Sacramento. Mrs. McClaughry professes
a fear lest her husband disappear with
the children, and has a corps of detec
tives that watch the house day and
night, being equipped with automo
biles for an emergency.
McLaughry likewise has guards, as
he fears that- his wife's detectives
might try to steal the children, and it
has at least made a lot of good news
paper copy.
It is likely, that the dispute will be
adjusted before 'long, as it has been
said that the money difference Is re
duced to one of very small propor
tions. It Is said that less than $30,000
is the last obstacle to a settlement. Mrs.
McLaughry wants to get possession of
the children, but objects to paying too
high a price for them. Like her fath
er, she does not like to give-up money,
and she knows how' to drive a shrewd
bargain.
Despite- the stories of Mrs. Clara
Stocker's vast expenditures, the other
daughter of Lucky Baldwin is not wast
ing her money It extravagance. She is
spectacular but not foolish, and she en-
joys creating sensations that do not
cost her very much.

Because it requires no stove black

Economical-Why?
Because the "New Idea" consumes 25
per cent less gas than any range
made. Because the patent burners are
constructed to consume more air than
any other gas range. The air costs
nothing.

cIsco for London, last February, Del
Mue presented him with a small and
exquisitely painted landscape as a
mark of esteem.
It has just been learned through a
letter from Yates that upon reaching
London ho had the picture framed and
submitted for acceptance at the Royal
Academy exhibition. It was not only
accepted, but "hung on the line."
"I took two Royal academicians up
to it." writes Yates. "They were
charmed with it and asked who the
artist was, how old was he and where
he lived. They wero astonished when
I told them that he was an artist on a
San Francisco newspaper, and that lie
worked long hours on six days out of
every seven."
Many persons 1n San Francisco will
share, with Yates a sense of gratifica
tion at the success of this young and
able painter whose work so richly de
serves all the honors that may be be
stowed upon it.
...
A good deal of chagrin has been ex
pressed over the failure of the Cali
fornia Assembly to pass the concur
rent resolution requesting the National
Government to cede Yerba Buena or -Goat
Island to the state. The Idea, of
course, was to arrange for a bridg '
from the San Francisco mainland to
Yerba Buena and thus have quicker
transit to Oakland.
It is funny how seriously some peo
ple take the suggestion and funnier
still, in view of the way the San Fran--Cisco
papers denounce the Legislature
for passing a similar resolution In
1893.
There is not the slightest reason to
believe that Congress will accede to
the request. It is certain that the Navy
and Commerce Departments will vig
orously oppose it.
When the Legislature, in 1S93, did
pass the Identical resolution which t
was refused passage at the last ses
sion, the San Francisco press de
nounced it as a "railroad job." The
resolution asked that the island be
given to the state for use as a union
terminal station. But the Western Pa
cific, had not been built then and tne
Santa Fe had not been built to San
Francisco. So the resolution was de
nounced as a scheme to give Yerba
Buena to the Southern Pacific.
1 But what was pronounced infamous
20 years ago is declared to be all rlgbt
now. A union terminal on Yerba Buena
Island was the laft thing San Fran
cisco wanted in 189.1. In 1913 it is pre
cisely the thing that San Franclso. '
needs. In 1S93 the Southern Pacific
favored the scheme, but it does not fa
vor it now because the corporation has
spent enormous sums creating ter
minal facilities on the Oakland mole.
Having adjusted Its differences wltn
the city of Oakland and supplied its
needs for additional - facilities, it has
no mind to pull up stakes and move
over to the island to please San Francisco.

He has established stations at Lau
