WILSON WAS A GAY FORGER
His Bank Account Was All in His
Busy Brain
After Eight Little Commercial Transactions
He Is 0obbled Up and Sent to
San Quentin

Martin Wilson, stocky young man
who appeared to be troubled with chronic
lump jaw, which gave him very much the
appearance of prize-fghter, pleaded
guilty yesterday in Department One of
the Superior Court to two informations
charging shim with passing spurious
checks and passing them off on small
tradesmen in the suburbs. Wilson, who
is of good address, said that he had no
valid excuse to offer, but in mitigation OF
his crime stated that he had been steady
worker for three years, having a wife
and children living little way out of
the city, but, having become addicted to
drink, he grew reckless and uttered
checks for small amounts right and left,
although realizing that detect ion must
surely come. His career of rotous living
would have lasted as long as there were
blank checks on the banks and pen and
ink available had he not been arrested
by Detective Hawley. On the first charge,
that of getting $l2 from Mrs. Kate Coch-
ran by means of check on the First Ma
tional Bank, which purported to be
signed by one James Franck, Judge
Smith sentenced Wilson to two years
in San Quentin. On second one of de-
frauding M. Schweng out of $40 by means
OF bogus check signed by James Harvey,
likewise a creature of Wilson's fertile
brain, year more in the penitentiary
was added, the punishment to begin at
the expiration of the first term. Six
other charges of a similar nature will be
pressed

COL. DUNCAN AT 1T AGAIN
He Is Now Reaching For the Times--
Mirror Barrel
The Kentucky Colonel Demands $4,000 for
Having Been Called an
''Erratic Bloviator'

The trial of the $500 damage suit
which Blanton Duncan brought against
the Times-Mirror Company some time ago
because he believed himself libeled by
that paper, has begun in Department
Three of the Superior Court. The jury
which will determine whether there is
any libel in the passage of which Duncan
complains are G. Easton, Stephen d.
Thurman, W. Mester. Eli W. Shuler,
Truman c. Narramore, Charles Shorey,
Ben Il. Gardner. j. T. Gordon, John
Dieterich, John l.. Morrisey, Eugene RI.
Kincaid and Il. f. Ball.
The particular paragraph OF the heavy
Times leader which aroused the ire OF the
Kentucky Colonel, the idea that it was
libel and the suspicion that such kind OF
literature had damaged him to the ex-
tent of $25, 900 was as follows:
Another erratic bloviator, who inclted
railroad men to violence on Monday and
offered to champion their unlawful acts
in the courts, received straight hint
from Judge Ross yesterday, when. upon
applying for admission to practice in that
court he was told that the matter would
be considered in his court, and that the
Judge did not wish to have any incendi-
aries practicing in his court"
Although Judge Brunson is of counsel
fol- Plaintiff Duncan, the latter is attend
ing to his case mainly. On the other
side are Senator Stephen M. White and
colonel had testified he rested, and the
Times people asked for a non-suit, which
Judge York denied. Documentary evil
dence was then introduced by the defense.
and at 5 o'clock an adjournment was
taken until this morning.

A large force of men and teams is at

1t is contemplated to make winding
drive the coming summer on the south
side up one of the high hills, SO that full
and unobstructed view can be had OF the
San Fernando valley.
Yesterday was an unusually clear day
and from the top of one of the knobs in the
park which is the highest piece of ground
in Los Angeles city. grand view OF
Santa Monica and the ocean was had.
Mount Lowe was clearly seen and Whit
tier, Burbank, Crescenta Canyada and Los

This park, composed as is OF hill and

Mrs. Margaret c. Graham's Lecture on
& Social Customs

The Maccabees' Entertainment.
Society Events

PASADENA, March 21.-Mrs. Margaret
C.Graham addressed an audience Of ladies
at the residence of Stewart Taylor on
hGrand avenue this morning, taking as her
subject Social Customs, which proved
both interesting and instructive. The en-
tire address was aimed at the useless and
vicious customs which have gradually
crept into society and become part of the
so-called exclusveism which is so much
affected by the upper strata. The subject
was handled without gloves. This ten
dency," said the speaker, lis to be depre
Gated, and those who are in sympathy
should be selected as associates. The
question of church, wealth or family
should not be allowed to interfere. There
is too much money mixed up with the
present cassifications OF society. AS at
present organized society permits but few
attractions to desirable young men. The
expense and eXactions prove very effective
barriers and the complaint of the lack of
men is heard on all sides. 1t is also
fact that the best and brightest young
women of the day are stunning society,
preferring to devote tbemsevels to some
thing more useful. There was time
when if the hostess provided a house and
refreshments her duties were at an end.
Such is not the case at present. Prizes,
games, donkey parties, etc., must be pro-
vided to take the place of brains. The
tendency to mammoth social gatherings
which are usually but a vulgar display
of wealth is an is an indication of de-
moralization in society" The popular
fad of helping the working girl was dis
eussed but not favorably commented
upon.
Woman's clubs if properly conducted
were held to be of use to all classes OF wo-
men and with more argument for ex-
istcnce than the man S club. The eman-
cipation of women from man s cruelty
and injustice was not of as much import
ance as the emancipation of woman from
her cruelty and injustice to herself. The
entire lecture was extremely bright and
witty and was warmly received.

held possession OF the ope.a house last
evening and threw open the doors to the
public to listen to an address by Mr.. d..
Z. Markey, supreme commander of the
Knights of the Maccabees OF the world.
The house was very prettly decorated
with flowers and presented a charming
appearance. The Hotel Green orchestra
furnished music for the evening. and a
couple of recitations by Mrs. j. II. Plant
were much enjoyed. as was cornet solo
by Mr.. Douglass of the orchestra. Su-
preme Commander Markey devoted his
address principally to explaining the

sented. In the opening he paid high
compliment to the open hospital
ity which he had received at the hands
of the people of Southern California. The
object of the order is 10 build up the

Fruit Exchanges
The following dispatch was printed in
the San Francisco papers of Wednesday
LOS ANGELES. March 19.-The fruit
exchanges of Southern California have
sent letter to Senator Stephen M. White
scoring him severely for the position he
takes on the tariff on foreign oranges. 1t
is not known if White will reply.
AS far as can be learned the dispatch
was fabricated and has no foundation in
fact, as Senator White has not received
any such communication, and ample
time has elapsed for it to reach him.
The senator last evening said: Il doubt
very much if the dispatch has any truth
in it. / first saw the statement in a San
Francisco paper, but have not received
any such letter. l do not believe that the
fruit men would take any such ill based
position, fol they are better off under the
present tariff law than they were before.
There is no basis for any such complaint.
Fruit men all over the state have recog-
nzed the fact that my efforts have
always been directed in their interests

Herman Henriss Guilty of Sending Obscene
Matter


Herman Henriss was convicted yester
day by jury in the United States Dis
trct Court OF sending obscene and i'm

quently Mr.. Munday, counsel for the de-
fendant, will have a very tough breakfast
this morning, for he promised each jury
man during the argument that if any of
them could find anything of an objection
able nature on the postal cards written by
his client he would eat the hats of every
one of them.
Henriss. it appears, was at one time
engaged to Miss Wanda Wilson, hand
some young school teacher who came here
from Dakota to testify. She declined to
keep her promise and went to Chicago, to
which city Henriss addressed halt dozen
postal cards. on which were written things
that greatly distressed and humiliated
her.
Henriss' lawyers tried to make light of
the whole case by saying that the affair
was simply quarrel between two lovers
and should be settled out of court. The
jury, however. settled the matter itself.
The extreme penalty is $4,000 fine and five
years imprisonment The defendant is a
