He suggested that the names of any out of work and in need, if there were such, should be left with Mr. Dunn, the relief officer. .

Mayor Drew said that though there was some unemployment here he beâ€" lieved the town in better shape than most places. He did not believe that there were any starving.

Oranges sell in California at as low a rate as ten dozen for 25 cents. Regarding the earthquakes (which Californians do not enjoy being mentioned), Mr. Lake said that the people as soon as an earthâ€" quake is felt put out fires and opi>n their doors.
