Miss Dora Butler was born IN
Platte county, Mo-, July 1868, was
reared near Ottawa, Kans., where
some relations now reside. She came
to make her home in our city during
the summer Of 81, and resided with
her aunt, Mrs. Silvia Brown, do

Dora entered the high school and waS

bore her illness with much patience.

The return Of votes just made IN
Louisiana, shows that the percentage
Of white voters in that state who
cannot read and write has increased
from II to 10 since 1880, whereas,
that of the colored remains about the
same that it was at that time. Ut
the 1920 white voters added to the
registration list in the last eight
wears, 1856 cannot read their own
name. And still the Southern lead
ers claim that the reason for suppress
ing the Negro vote is that they vii
not consent to be governed by q mas
of ignorance. What is the difference
gentlemen, between black Ignorance
and white ignorance? History shows
that in this country black ignorance
| is the safer fer the welfare OF tn
country than white ignorance.

THE RAPID TRANSIT.
A Blockade Between Mission Roas
and Also street.

A Blockade Between Mission IL oad
and Also street.
A good many people are doubtless won
dering why the directors of the Rapid
Transit Road have not commenced work
on finishing the line from it's present
terminus at the Mission Road to the pro-
posed depot on Also street. The reason
is because the line is practically blocked,
the owners of the property en- route de-
msnding fabulous sums for riphts-of- way.
For crossing the Beaudry place Of half an
acre, it is stated that $40, 900 is de- manded
and at another point MIR. Prayer wants
$75, 900 to let the road build through his
property. The road cannot, OF course,
pay such sums as these, and the direc-
tors are, therefore, lying quiet until the
charges are reduced or other arrange
ments made. The company is loath to
enter any condemnation suits, as such a
proceeding means delay of about two
years, as witness the case of the South
ern Pacific's condemnation of right-of-
way across the Laguna, which was en-
tered some months ago, but regarding
which nothing has yet been done. The
Rapid Transit people will, therefore, op
crate their bus line, as at present, ane
will build into Pasadena before they dc
any other work.

LEFT HER HUSBAND.

A Chinese Woman Who Prefers to
stny at the Police Station.
The police department has an elephant
on its hands in the shape of a China
woman, who persists in remaining at
the station to keep away from her hus-
band. She is comely young woman,
and was married about six months age
to Wong Ack, who is a prominent man
among his people. She told the police
through an interpreter that he treated
her badly and that she wanted to leave
him. The Chief told her that he
had no authority in matters
of that kind, but she insisted on staying
in the station to be free from the hus.
bands interference. Wong Ack finally
appeared on the scene himself, and en-.
deavored to persuade her to return, but
she refused to go. Mrs. Watson offered
to take her to the Home if the Chief
would give her in charge, but he did not
see his way clear to such action. and the
woman is still in the city prison. She is
very contented, and seems happy enough
at getting away from her husband to be
willing to put up with imprisonment.

ABOUT THE CITY.
SANTA MONICA SENSATION

George Nicely, member of the Saliva.
ton Army, had fit of insanity yester-
day which may prove permanent. He
is accustomed to 60 about the streets and
preach, roaring out with the greatest
enthusiasm about the glories of salvation.
Yesterday morning he stationed himself
at the corner of the courthouse and began
to preach. Presently the frenzy became
too much for him and he
yelled out in way to make his presence
obnoxious to the entire neighborhood.
An officer was sent to order him to move
on to some place where he would be less
troublesome, but he refused to go. The
officer then undertook to move him by
force, and he became wild, shrieking and
bowling at the top of his voice, and call
ing on the Lord to protect him.
He was brought to the station in the
wagon, assisted by two or three officers,
who thought he was simply disposed to
be obstreperous, and they booked
him for disturbing the peace.
He was locked up in cell, where he
continued his insane yelling. After he
had kept this up almost without inter
mission for four or five hours, the Chi-i
decided that his brain was deranged and
ordered him taken to the County Jail.
For an hour at q stretch he repeated the
cry, "Glory to God" He quieted down
considerably after being taken to the Jail

In addition to the above, have done

securing assistance for them from the
various benevolent societies I the city.
Also in hunting up lost children and re-
storing them to their homes, and assist

My task has been an arduous one, and
my lines have not always fallen in pleas

fully to honestly discharge my duty
to all with whom have had
relations in my official capacity.
I have been the officer OF the Humane
Society for over two years, and have re-
ceved for my services scarcely half the
salary paid to a regular police officer;
but am gratifed to feel that my efforts
in suppressing cruelty and inhumanity
have not been in vain. 1 have been

TOURIST TRAVEL.
Messrs. Pullman Will Handle All
the SecOnd-class Business.

Messrs. Pullman will Handle All
the SecOnd.class Business.
The announcement by the HERALD
that hencefoith the Santa Fe will handle
it's own excursion business, thereby
dispensing with the services of Messrs.
Warner Bros. and A. Phillips & Co. has
furnished quite an item to dilate on for
the papers of this city and San Fran
cisco. The party which Messrs. Phillips
will bring in on Tuesday morning will in
all probability be the last that that
agency will handle in the interest of the
Santa Fe, as it is announced that the
new order went into effect on February
LIST. Railroad men here are of opinion
that the whole method of handling the
California excursion business will be
changed not only as regards the Santa Fe,
but all the lines. 1t is an established
fact that about 80 per cent. of the over
land Coast traffic is second-class, and out
of the remaining 20 per cent. Messrs.
Pullman do not get as much business by
ing, therefore, that the second-class agen-
commodations almost equal to those in
hold of the frst-class traffic, Messrs.
Pullman have determined to enter into
that line of competition themselves.
They will put second-class coaches ON
all the Pacific railroads, and fit
similar to those supplied by Deni-
son on the Southern Pacific, making
a charge of so cents per night for their
| 11g U OF fhnk
the Pullmans would reduce the price of
their berths in the frst-class cars to 81,
but this project is, doubtless, dismissed
under the new arrangement. The change
will mean the letting out not only of
Messrs. Warner and Phillips, but also
Walters, Harvey, Chatterton and all the
other agents now handling the California
business. These firms will be heavy
losers by the deal, for in the case of
big operators, like the two 6rst-named,
the profits were simply enormous. On
each passenger coming from Boston to
California the commissions received we're
about as follows: So on the trunk lines
from Boston to Chicago; So on the Iowa
lines and "a on the Transcontinental
Read, in addition to which each passen-
ger had to pay IS for the accommoda-
lions furnished. The commissions named
are little more than those usua ly paid,
but were given on account of the great
hold the excursion men had on passenger
traffic. At SIS passenger and bi. weekly
excursions numbering from 200 to 300
tourists, the immense revenue is easily
discernible, and this the railroads now
propose to have for themselves, Messrs.
Pullman will he repaid for their equip
ment by the so cent per capita charge
for the use of their cars, and this will
really make it cheaper for west bound
travel, as the journey from Boston to
Los Angeles. only occupies seven days at
the m Jst aud at so cents per night the
extra charge will be So so, whereas the
excursion men made fee OF $5. The
Pullman cars are now being fitted up,
and will he put on the western roads at
an early date.

Yesterday morning about half-past Z,
crowd of about 200 men stood on the
corner of Temple and CASTELAR, streets,
and watched an impromptu but very
spirited fight between game rooster and
big turkey cock. A hen turkey stood
by and watched the mill with very much

during which time betting among tn,
spectators was very lively. 1t ended il
