1 'WONDERFUL SPIRIT
SANTA- BARBARA. Cal. -July 1.-0
(A. P.) Defiant in the fuce of dis
aster which gripped their fair city
on the Pacific's shores during the
last 24 hours and left many of the
beautiful homes and' business blocks
t In earthquake ruins, the residents of
Santa Barbara today 4egnn a pro
gram of re-construction With the In
domitable cheerful spirit of pioneers
In a virgin land. - .
Up Vnd down the fourteen blocks
of State ' street, the" principal thor
oughfare, which was laid waste by
- "earth's temblor,; the sound of work
men held sway. Their tune was to
the crashing of gaunt walls crashing
to the groinid to make way for the
approaching builders, the clatter and
buzz of hammer and saw.
Grocery stores, produce houses and
other business enterprises .whose
shells had remained intact, reopened
' their doors todny with confidence.
From them the residents were re
turning to their homes, for the most
part deserted for open lawns, with
arms laden with - provisions. The
jest of shop keepers with patron was
in evidence everywhere.
At the homes the housewives pre
pared to Return the furniture to the
)use whence If had been removed
to the lawn at the firftt temblor.
Everywhere the husband busied
himself with hammer and saw to re
store the family abode to Its former
self. The musical scrape of the
mason's trowel was also heard in
the rebuilding of chimneys and fire
places throughout the city.
All the banks re-opened In tem
porary quarters.
4 Fortune smiled with the beaming
Jiin on J. W. Goorge, crippled vete
ran of many quukes. He owns a
Bmnll frame fruit stand on the edge
of the stricken area. Ab he hobbled
about to dispense his wares today he
was glad the "quake didn't get the
two upper stories of tht six foot
stand." . . .
New Meighan Feature
Hunt's Craterian
Thomas Meighan with Lila Lee as
lending woman, makes "Old Home
Week" at the Hunt's Craterian theater
today and tomorrow a pretty' hard
combination to beat.
The film tells the story of a man
who came home with a brass band in
front of him and the sheriff behind.
When he arrives In company with
rich men everybody takes him for a
winner. Ho is feted and dined and
Amade ; a ifwssHOvpr.-ii.Thon 'the. .time
rcomes.. when the whole framework
of unintended deceit falls to tottering
about Tom. Despised by all, even hie
girl, he seeks to make good.
Meighan has the type of role that
he can play to perfection. For
lovable humor, quaint philosophy,
thrills and dramatic suspense,
mingled with explosive laughter,
"Old Home Week" Is hard to beat.
Lfla Lee in the leading feminine role
is more appealing than ever. Inci
dentally this is Mins Lee's farewell ap
pearance on the screen. Others in the
cast are Charles Sellon, Max Figman,
' Larry Wheat.
The usual Craterian short film and
Betty Brown at the organ, completes
tho program.
Air Mail Thriller
At Rialto Theatre
Th once little thought of air mail,
now pfoneorlng the way In commer
cial aviation and demonstrating that
It is practicable to operate cargo car
rying planes on' Hchedulo time over
vast distances, dny and -night, winter
land summer, becomes a" screen thrll
'ler now playing at the Rialto theater
in "The Atr Mall."
Warner Baxter. Billlc Dove. Mary
Brian and Douglas Fairbanks, Jr.,
have featured roles in the production.
Scenes of the picture take place at
a Sacramento and Reno, two. big sta
tions along the air route0and in a
"deserted city" where Billle Dove and
her father,' .victims of a poor real
entate deal,! llvo. Kane is forced
down near BIMIo's home during a
Btorm. Ho meets her, and from then
on they are the very best of friends.
Young Fairbanks furnishes a real
thrill in the picture when he leaps
from Baxter's lunging plane with the
precious mail packet.
Ben Turpln has even more tum
bles and side-splitting antics than
uftual in "The Raspberry Romance,"
a Mack Sennett comedy. There is a
good news reel, and Peggy Ridley at
the organ renders a musical Interpre
tntion satisfying to the lovers of organ
music '

When four employes of Washing

ment of justice agents. They be
came aware of it yesterday, however,
when they were Ltrought ' before
United States Commissioner Turnage
and charged With - violation of,, the
prohibition laws, r
The four, Jules Venlco, maitro do
hotel; Dinardo Blazl, assistant chef;
John Mendas, bellboy, and Ralph
E. Jones, waiter, 'Were released in
bonds ranging from $1000 to $5000.
Mendas, described by Commissioner
Turnage as a "tool," wan said to
have confessed his part ill tho 'af
fair. The banquet was arranged, It was
declared, when a- prohibition 'agent,
registered at the hotel as an ' "iron
and steel man," from San Fruncisco,
asked Venice if he could provide
good liquor for his banquet guests.
Information filed by the agents said
Venico agreed to ''fix that all right."
More than five bottles of whiskey
and 24 cocktails were served to the
agents, they asserted.
U.S.7LEET SAILS
FOR SOUTH SEAS.
HONOLULU, July 1. (A. P.)
Nearly every port of promlnenco in
Australia, New Zealand and Tas
mania, as well as all the American
South Sea possessions, except Guam,
will get a glimpse of some portion
of the detachment of the 55 United
States naval vessels which left hero
today for a "friendship" cruise of
three months.
Tho Isles of Tahiti, Tai-o-Hae, Ku
kuhiva, Marquesas and Calapagos
island will bo visited- by certain
craft. The trip ns a whole, will
constitute the longest and most ex
tensive maneuvers ever carried out
by tho American fleet. The Jour
ney to Australia is the largest peace
time steaming venture to be made by
the United States;- the round-the-world
squadron of Admiral Evans
in 1908 contained only 18 vessels.
The armada will proceed from
Honolulu to latitude 38 degrees, 10
minutes, approximately a day's sail
ing from Australia. ' Hre tho fleet
will split. One detachment, headed
by tho Senttle, will proceed to Mel
bourne, arriving there July 23. Tho
other detachment, led by the Cali
fornia, flagship of Admiral S. S.
Hoblson, commander In chief of the
battle fleet, will ro to Sydney.
