navel orange, 60 miles of citrus or
chards, suburban towns and beautiful
homes. Is a straight easterly drive to
wards the San Bernardino Mountains,
glittering In the brilliant sunshine.
At Riverside are still these parent
trees, preserved as almost sacred,
priceless relics of human enterprise.
From Riverside we follow the Santa Fe
Railroad In concrete roadways via Fer
ris and Marietta. Along these concrete
foundations are deliveries of finely
crushed material to construct the bl
tumlnous surface.
We passed all one forenoon riding
over the valleys leading to the great
mountain range to the south and then
crossed over a ridge of hills to Temecu
lo. There were abundant Spring rains
snd fine grain crops hsve been har
vested. There Is natural road material in
this region, and what the secretary of
the Southern California Automobile
Club Informed us, the finest dirt roads
In the United States are those between
Los Angeles and San Diego, proved
true.
ITeavea for Motoriag Ho and.
Los Angeles is the veritable heaven
on earth of the automoblllst, Sunday
morning we drove to Santa Monica
Beach from Pasadena via Hollywood,

ment 30 to 90 feet wide and thronged
with such wealth of motor-driven ve
hicles as the world did not dream of 20
years, ago. The parade of luxurious
cars cannot be surpassed In any Amer
ican or foreign city. Here are cars of
all colors and from all states in the
Union. Thousands of cars are shipped
here by their owners from the Esst
and are never driven off the - pave
ments. Many carry colored chauffeurs, and
some Japanese. The colored driver of
the auto is the legitimate successor of
the Pullman porter and dining car
man. Motor cars at the beaches or on
Washington and Wiltshire boulevards
are surely not to be numbered. These
streets and Pasadena avenue to Long
Beach, and the new boulevard through
Topango Canyon are driven over by
thousands of cars daily and at speed
practically without limit. Of course
reckless drivers are arrested, but the
actual practice Is to penalise the snail.
A friend who represents the Apperson
branch at Los Angeles took us out. and
to ssy that there were no snails on
Flgueroa avenue out towards the ex
position park is putting It mild.
Sceale Rides Are Kusaerous,
Los Angeles and San Diego both have
wonderful inviting possibilities for mo
toring. They are- in the same class
with Portland In affording opportunity
for long reaches of avenues and bou
levards, and at the same time plenty of
chances for scenic highways. But the
California towns have made more hay
In these meadows than Portland.
Forty miles out from San Diego the
Camina Real is paved, but by the inland
route we travel a fine, well-graded
highway. Before reaching Escandido
there are routes across to Oceanslde,
and thence Into the bluest bay In the
world by the seashore pavement.
The last .20 miles into the Harbor
of the Sun are over gracious grades and
grow in interest as the last canyon
rises from the riverbed at the head
of the bay and come down Univer
sity avenue to the hotel section. Alter
dinner we motored out to Point Loma,
headquarters of the International
Theosophlcal Association. It is a night
ride of magical effects. ,
At Los Angeles we begin to realize
Mexico. One whole city park is given
up to Mexicans. From this on south
we pass Mexicans every few miles on
horseback and pass adobe houses and
even snug modern bungalows occupied
by our brown-skinned neighbors to
the south of us.
Monoplane Sails Overhead.
As we toured out of San Diego for
Mexico a monoplane sailed over us
headed out for the Pacific It is a sport
that has become quite the rage of these
southern cities. There is a Govern
ment aviation station at San Diego.
Los Angeles air fiends fly from their
homes in the suburbs to take dinner at
their country clubs. Their last trip is
always made in an ambulance or a
hearse. It is also safe and a favorite
way of touring into Mexico.
To Tiajuana we go south 16 miles
through National City to the boundaries
of the land of sentiment, mystery and
Intrigue, which had wealth and clvlllza
tlon when the Jamestown colonists
lived In mud-plastered huts. Tiajuana
la advertised as a Mexican Monte
Carlo, has bullfights every week In
the year, and the Mayor, who welcomed
us. was dressed as a toreador.
The drive down the coast through the
lemon groves Is delightful. Wo had
left the airship far behind. Point Loma
was a blue line far to the north as
iwe crossed the line into Mexico. Ahead
was the mescal, the faro tables; customs
officials and the land of revolution. We
passed a big motorcar loaded with col
ored men going to the Tiajuana county
fair.
.On one side of the line wave the Stars
and Stripes snd the rural mall carrier
plods over his route. The fields are
planted with American spineless cac
tus. Across the line ail the cactus has
spines. On one side fine highways
are building. Right alongside is the
ragged edge of a ragged republic. Of
course. It Is largely sentiment and
imagination, but the country looks dif
ferent immediately you cross the Mex
ican line.
Fort Is BnlH of Brick.
We leave our only protection, an un
loaded Smith & Wesson, In the hands
of the American customs officer, pass
the Mexican officials and we are under
Villa, Carransa, Huerta, Angelus. or
the subprefecto polltica. or whoever
may be the president pro tempore of
the republic The name, of Porflrio
Dias is still over the Mexican customs
office. The town on the American side
Is San Ysidro.
Fuerte (fort) Tiajuana is built of
brick and has a garrison of one ragged
company. They seem to be happy and
well fed. sleepy looking lads, but a
doggged persistence sticks out all over
them. The military band plays at the
fair, and is the principal attraction.
Poor as they are and distressful as
their condition may be under revolu
tion, one gets the feeling that this is
their country ahd that they cannot help
but love it as their own. and that the
United States has no business under
any circumstances to take it away from
them, or that they would ever tolerate
foreign subjugation.
The Monte Carlo department of
Tiajuana is confined to a long, low
building, and is run by some low
browed Americans, one hailing from
Portland. Or., whose family name he
did not want mentioned, although some
of them are in the printing business.
As is usual in. such places, the games
are run by a syndicate. To see women
stand up to a faro table, a chuck-luck
game, or throw dice for money, or Dlay
21 or the. roulette game for hard coin
was a new sensation. But they played
tne games with a zest and they were
Americans. This only proves that the
most Intelligent and prudent represen
tatives of the fair sex cannot be trusted
not to gamble.
Gnlde at 81 Hour Declined.
For a party of Americans to enter a
fortified city of a country at war with
out passports would be an unheard-of
undertaking in Europe. But we even
declined the offers of guides to show us
through at 11 an hour.
This time gives one a general con
cept, but one has no time to study
the botanical gardens, the experimen
tal farms, tea culture and manv other
special features peculiar to Southern
California.. '.
The decorative effects are Intensely
Spanish, a combination of the Italian
renaissance, overloaded with the con
cept of opulence, the manifestation of
material . development, the abundance
of wealth following the Spanish discov
eries. This art concept pervades the
exteriors.
The endless arcades are an orange
pink, and looking through them the
courts have a warm violet atmospheric
tinting. The buildings are topped with
copper-red cornices, a triple tier of
decorations in Moorish effects of the
richest Isabellan period. Ancient Amer
ican art is made prominent in the Cal
ifornia building.
Buildings Show Forelsa Ideas.
The ancient temples of Central Amer
ica and monuments and tablets of pre-
Christian civilization show distinct
traces of Hindoo, Persian and Egyptian
ideas and symbols.
There are beautiful symbolic pictures
tn the theosophlcal headquarters, be
fore reaching the Art building. The
first art gallery has rude tile floors,
enormous spaces with a single row of
pictures on each side, dominated - by
collections by Childe. Hassam and Rob
ert Henri. Americana The whole en
semble is so artistic that a mere arbi
trary collection of paintings Is mini
mized in effect, as one wanders through
the cloistered arcades, cooled on each
side by thickets of flowering shrubs
and plantations of evergreens. The real
art collections are the decorative pot
tery in the Archaeological building,
where the Indigenous arts produced by
the native Americans are found. This

iitlnn 'will arrive tn the lower Port
land harbor late this afternoon. It Is
the convict ship Success, and it comes
from San Francisco for a three weeks'
stay, during which time the public will
be invited to board it and learn the
details of criminal punishment of more
than a century ago. ,
The Success was launcnea in muui-
I -D-tM.h Tnrlia In 1790. She WSS
designed and first used as an armed
merchantman and for iz years iraua
ported Oriental luxuries from the re
i A . v. n c .imn to. all narts of
the world. In 1802 the Success was
chartered by the British uovernmeni
to transport the overflow of criminals
t i?nii.h tn Australia.. She
served as a criminal transport until
1861, when she was permanenny em
tioned at Hobson's Bay, Australia, as
a receiving prison.
. The brutal treatment accorded pris
oners aboard the Success led almost to
a revolt by the Australians against the

used as a women's prison and later as

solid Burman teak, and the teak panel
carvings that were part of the original
ornamentation of the ship, are still in
a state of perfect preservation. . The
original mainmast, also of teak. Is
as sound as ever, although it bears tho
indent of a cannon ball fired by a ter
rified coast guard of Calcutta. The
pumps with which the Success was first
equipped are also in good working
order.
All the devices for torture that
could be conjured by a vindictive mind
are exhibits on board the ship. The
branding room, where the prisoners
were branded with the "broad arrow,"
a sign of English ownership; the leg
irons, that weigh from 7 to 56 pounds;
the spiked collar, the flogging frames,
the original cat-o'-nine-tails and ta
"iron maiden"; all these were used on
board this "ocean hell" to subject re
fractory prisoners whose offenses
ranged from the stealing of a two
penny pork pie to the most brutal mur
ders. A great many of England's most
notorious criminals did "transporta
tion" time on the Success. The famous
"Six men of Dorset" were prisoners for
years within her darkened cells.
Atlantic Voyage Strenuous.
The Success came to this country In
1912. When it was announced that the
vessel would cross the Atlantic unac
companied by a tug or steamer, tho
feat was declared impossible. Because
of the ship's1 age Lloyds refused Insur
ance and the British Government re-fused-lo
give the commander clearance.
However, she set sail from England on
the same day that the Titanic did, and
after 96 days of battling arrived in
Boston harbor with a half-starved
crew.
The Success is in command of Its
owner. Captain D. H. Smith, who has
been with the vessel for eight years.
Captain Smith, before taking charpe of
the vessel was an officer in the Eng
