PASADENA, Feb. 12.—Two fires oc
curred in Pasadena today, one In the
store room of the Nay Plumbing com
pany, 28 East Union street, and the
other In the meat market of Joseph
Schweikert, jr., 1260 East Colorado
street.
The fire in the Nay establishment
started from a candle, used in taking
inventory, Uio fkuuu coming in contact
with a large box of oakum. The ig
nited oakum was thrown into the alley
and the blaze extinguished with hand
apparatus and a line of garden hose
before the arrival of the department.
The damage was very slight.
The flre at Schweikert's started from
a gas stove, over which dinner was
being cooked, In the tent house .-id
joining the rear of the market. The
tent house was surrounded by a vine
covered pergola, which was highly in
flammable. The. market with nearly all
its contents was destroyed, with a loss
of about $1500. Two vacant buildings
adjoining, property of Mrs. Gaylord,
740 Orange Grove avenue, were con
siderably damaged.
Charles Willctts, manager of the.
meat market, accepted the offer of
Tuthill's grocery, a few doors east and
immediately opened a temporary mar
ket at that place with what goods
were saved. The Villa street depart
ment made a run of a mile and a half.
The Mentor avenue chemical uould not
be used to advantage.
Many expressions of indignation were
heard on all sides and the sentiment
seemed to be unanimous in favor of
petitioning the city at once for better
protection. The 60-gallon chemical on
Mentor avenue is the only apparatus
furnished for the entire east side, cov
ering an area of several square miles.

revolvers, ammunition and other ar
ticles stolen.
A. E. Dauphinee, a conductor of the

revolver, the stranger gradually draw
ing away.

story, describing the man who gave
him the gun, from a cot in the Po

AUSTRIAN GOVERNMENT TO
BUILD LARGE WAR HARBOR
Port Will Be Constructed In Adriatic
Sea Farther South Than
Present One
BERLIN, Feb. 12.—Announcement
that the Austrian government will con
struct a great war harbor at Sebenico
on tho Adriatic creates the liveliest in
terest in German naval quarters.
It is interpreted as a direct reply to
the recent reception of a French squad
ron in Antivari, to the transformation
of which into a "free port" Austria had
to consent as one of the compensations
for tlie annexation of Bosnia.
Nothing 1 can illustrate more vividly
the nebulous state of affairs within the
triple alliance than the following com
ment in the Berlin Lokalanzeiger, a
paper with close, official relations:
"For the Italian ally of today the new
war harbor of Sebenieo is a little warn
ing for the future. It lies considerably
farther south than the present war
harbor of Pola and nearer the main
portion of Italy's Adriatic'coast.
"The Austrian navy, notwithstanding
its smallness, compared with the fleets
of the great sea powers, always haa
been known as one of the most effec
tive. Its crews, recruited for the most
part from the seafaring Dalmatians,
are as splendid as its intelligent and
gallant corps of officers. The Austrian
war fleet constitutes for its ally, there
fore, a very valuable auxiliary to the.
greater German* navy. This fact, and
the cor tcnpJntpd strengthening of the
Austrii iiitvy. oady have caused
patriot tjvmors In Italy and Eng
land."

WHITE POWERS ARE
DENOUNCED BY CHINESE
Men in Celestial Empire Said to Be
More Deeply Angered Against
Foreigners Than in Years
SHANGHAI, Feb. 12.—Mischievous
placards have been circulated lately In
certain parts of China in which all sorts
of sinister designs are attributed to
foreign countries. The statements made
by the authors, who are said to be em
ployed in government schools, touch the
height of absurdity, but are none the
less calculated to move an ignorant
populate to adopt such measures as the
boycotting of foreign goods and the
harassing of foreign enterprises, if not
others of a more violent character.
In one placard, originating from the
province of Kuangsl, it is stated that
China's end is approaching:, as the
powers have demanded financial super
vision over as well as administrative
control of the empire, and that should
these be placed in foreign hands, China
will share the fate of Egypt and Korea,
and her people will be designated as
".slaves of a dead country." Students
and other classes are therefore urged
to undertake military drill, with a view
to resolute resistance to foreign ag
gression,
A second document, which hails from
North Kiangsu, is more explicit in its
details of China's plight. $t sets forth
that the powers, assembled at The
Hague conference, determined to divide.
China "like a molon." France holds
Kuangsl arid has several myriad sol
diers on its border; Russia threatens
Mongolia; the British navy is in the
neighborhood of Hongkong; twenty
men-of-war of the United States have
gone to Shanghai to seize strategic
points on- the Yangtsze. Beyond this
"it is not necessary to particularize."
for every power in standing by to take
over its special portion of a dismem
bered China.
The document adds: "Poland has
been swallowed up; India cannot es
cape the qontrol of England. So, since
after we are overcome we are to be
offered up as sacrificed animals, why
not let us llrst take the blood of our
necks and sprinkle it on our spears and
shields?"
Where these and similar Inflammato
ry circulars nro being distributed the
people are said to be more excited than
they have been for many years.
Following the example set by Qtr«
many, the Russian admiralty intends
to devote far more attention to sub

Members of Pick and Shovel Club Ob

a Variety of Fea.
tures
[Special to The Herald.]
VENICE, Feb. 12.—Tho unique tight
of prominent society women of the
beach hopping the clods behind a big
two-horse plow was witnessed here
this afternoon, when the members of
the Pick and Shoven club participated
in tho plowing of the Ocean Park
school gardens. The event, which was
planned and carried out by the mem
bers of this club, with the assistance
of tho Ocean Park school board, city
officials and members of the Mer
chants of Venice and chamber of com
merce, was held In conjunction with
the celebration o£ Lincoln's birthday by
the school.
When the school board recently ask
ed some one to volunteer to prepare the
school gardens for the spring planting,
one of the most important features of
the curriculum of the Ocean Park
school, the Pick and Shovel club, of
which Mrs. George Sibley is president,
conceived the idea of holding a public
exhibition of plowing. The officials
and citizens of Ocean Park, especially
the former, were invited to take part.
A fair sized crowd turned out today to
show their interest in educational mat
ters by aiding in the turning of fur
rows which are later to produce
and vegetables under the careful culti
vation of the pupils of the eight grades.
The women of the Pick and Shovel
club were present in full force, among
them a large number of the society
elite of Ocean Park and Venice. This
club since its organization has always
taken an active part In charitable and
educational affairs. .
The club served lunch to the crowd
at noon. This was followed by a short
program of exercises commemorating
the birthday of Lincoln. Recitations
and songs were given by the pupils
under the direction of the principal,
Mrs. Nellie D. Tyler, and City Clerk
G. G. "Watt delivered an excellent ora
tion on the life if Lincoln.
Genuine amusement was furnished
the crowd by the antics—no other word
will properly describe it—of the novices
who attempted to . guide the plow
through the rich black earth. Some
of them had never handled a cumber
some implement of the kind before.
"Count" Hans Vitzmussen, who has
plowed as a trade for many years,
gave expert instructions to those who
bravely made the attempt to stir up
the ground. the plow handles was
First to seize the plow handles fM
Mrs. Abbot Kinney. For several yards
horses, implement and plowwoman
proceeded down the field with the de
liberative manner of a professional
combination, when suddenly the point
of the plow struck a hard spot and
the combination was immediately
broken. Mrs. Kinney received no worse
injury than a fall to the soft earth.
The.Chiaffarelll band st ruck up a
patriotic air and Mrs. M. M. Merry
took the handles with T better success.
Then in turn followed Mrs. Sibley, Mrs.
Tyfer Mrs. Watt, Mrs. E. B. Browne,
Mrs. Goldsmith, Mrs. Hartman Mrs.
Motter and others of the club. It
wasn't very long until a large portion
of the garden was plowed, but it look
ed more as. if a hurricane had swept
over it than the work of even an or
dinary plowman. _
