Los Angeles Clubman<Went to Hono- Tula For Lark, And Had It. Los Angeles, Sept. 13.-- Warren D, Wood, 1 er commodore of the South Coast Yacht Club, and a well- known Los Angeles elubman, is back 'at his luxurious home here 'after a series of adventures in the South seas calculated to make Robinson! Crusoe jealous. e Wood went to Honolulu six months ago on & pleasure trip. While there he received an offer of the third mate's job on the British ship Krestle, and accepted it--for a lark, Then the Jack London stuff began, When far out on the boundless sea, Skipper Hindle, of the Krestle, be-_ gan te notice that his "third luff" shaved daily and appeared on deck wearing silk neckties..' The hardy skipper objected to it. There were tense scenes and exciting situations, with the use of belaying pins seem- ingly imminent. Finally Wood saw that eventually somebody would have to- be Kuiocked into-the lee scuppers, and, being an athlete, and hard as the proverbial niils, he decided to quit*his job rath- er than hurt the captain's feeling or anything else. But it is dificult to quit a third mate's job in the mid- dle of the Squth Pacific. 4 Wood was resourceful. One night the Krestle dropped anchor off a sha- 'Wood hopped into a ship's boat and rowed ashore, There he found a colony of cannibals 1 there 'was nothing else handy. : He managed to keep out of the frying pan for five weeks, during which the savages fed him like a king, and viewed his inéressing weight with evident relish. The situation. was beesming a 'Bft embar- rassing when "the little' Norwegian steamer Thomas arrived. Disguised behind a five weeks' beard, Wood approached the Swed- ish captain and asked for passage to Honolulu. He told the 'captain he had mansions in Los 'Angelés, and lots of money: 'The captain elevat- ed his beetling brows, but lowered them again, growling menacingly, and finally consented to lét the so- ciety man work lis way to Sydney, Australia. At Sydney, Wood fold himself he would cable home for a money bag that would astonish the natives. But he did not. He was unable to iden- tity himself to the 'satisfaction of the cable company, - which wanted cash for the message in advance. The American consul wouldn't risk the amount demanded. Two weeks later Wood----overalls, beard 'and all, asked for a job on the liner Ventura. He got "one--peel« ing potatoes. But: he got his revenge. He. ob tained money in Honolulu, and 'when the Ventura came through on its next voyage to California, he appro- priated the best suite and sat at the captain's right hand all the way to San Francisco. .
