AN INFANT PH|LANTHRO
Labor of Nine. Marie Marshall
Among French Girls in
the City.
Other Branches of the Work OF the
French Christian Union Of
California.

An infant philanthropy of present eff.
fectlveness and greater promise is located
at 1120 Powell street. AT its head is Nine.
Marie Marshall a beautiful French woman
with snowy hair, the pleasing manners OF
her refined countrywomen. and mother
love for young womanhood all her own.
In her native country she was prominently
connected with the McAll Mission of Paris
for many years, and during her long resi-
dence in California was well known as the
principal of the South Cosmopolitan
School. She is engaged a portion of the
time in the instruction of large classes in
French after the regular sessions in the
LIE Conte School.
The philanthropic work which she
directs is under the auspices of the French
Christian Union of California, society
organized last October. The officers are
Nine. Marshall, president; Mrs. W. NJ.
Searby, secretary; Mrs. Z. V. Robbins,
treasurer; Miss ]. A. Maker, corresponding
secretary. The union is non-sectarian, and
among its members are to be found repre-
sentatives of almost every denomination
in the City. Most of its benefciaries are
French, but there is no discrimination
against those of other nationalities, and
many who know nothing of the Gallo
tongue and customs have been benefited
through its instrumentality.
La Famille, at i120 Powell street, is a
home for young girls. 1t is designed
especially for those who are seeking en-
ployment, and while nominal sum is

SEARCHING HIS PAST
Prosecution Gathering Evil.
denCe From Durrant'S
Boyhood Days.
The Absence Of Curiosity-Seekers
Makes the Day Quiet at
the City Hall.

It was quiet day about the City Hall
yesterday-so quiet that those persons
who had occasion to visit the building
during the day remarked change that
might have been aptly ikened to trip to
the country after sojourn in the hustling,
bustllng city. The change was due to the
absence of the crowd that throngs the cor
ridors trying to gain an entrance to Judge
Murphy's courtroom, or, failing in that,
stands about for hours. eager to get a
glimpse of the celebrated prisoner Our
rant) when he is led to or from the halls OF
justice.
The crowd was not there because the
trial of Durrant was not on, and every en-
ploye of the various offices was glad, for
they have been bothered nearly to despera-
ton during the past week by curiosity
seekers who could not find their way to the
courtroom.
Captain Lees availed himself of the op.
portunity to get a rest, and hardly went
however, were not allowed to be idle, but
still kept up the same diligent search for
new evidence.
In this connection they have of late
been going into the prisoners past to the
minutest detail and far back into his boy
hood in the search for evidence that may
be utilized in the event of an attempt to
prove good character for the defendant.

from that on down to his days in college,
many of which have doubtless been long
ago forgotten even by the defendant him.
self, but incidents in his history which the
prosecution claims will prove him to have
been anything but the moral, model youth
and young man he has always been to all
outward seeming.
This is the line of investigation toward
which the attention of the detectives has
been directed of late.
When the trial is resumed Tuesday it is
believed there will be no further breaks in
its progress. but that it will continue
steadily until the end is reached. By the
middle of the week it is thought the taking
of preliminary testimony will have been
completed. Then will come the evidence
pointing to the perpetrator of the crime,
shown by the preliminary witnesses to
have been committed.
Not until then will there be any indica-
ton of the real attitude the defense will
assume, the only inference thus far to be
drawn being that an attack on the police
will, it is toierably sure, be one of the
features. It is also said that the defense
has bomb to explode when the evidence
of DR.. Graham is taken, and it is believed
that as in this they will in all cases at
tempt to throw discredit upon the evil
dence OF the prosecution.

Paul Jones' scratch" Crews,

One of the strangest things in Paul Jones'
career was the success he achieved with
scratch" crews. In his greatest fight,
contemporary history says, he had ''as bad
a crew as ever was shipped" being made
up of all nations, among them NAL
tese. Portuguese and Malays, who did
not always comprehend the word of COM
mand. Paul Jones has been severely de-
nounced for having returned to the place
of his birth bent on destruction; but as
Cooper justly points out, an officers oath
obliges him to do all in his power to harass
the enemy, and it was not only Paul
Jones' right, but his duty. to use his
knowledge of the Scotch and Irish coasts
in the prosecution of the war. If he had
any feeling on the subject, it would have
been his duty to suppress it. But Paul
Jones probably had no feeling whatever
except resentment. He had left his native
land as child and upon his last visit he
had been cruelty i'll used as he thought,
and he did his duty on this cruise with no
more repugnance than he would have felt
at doing it elsewhere-and did it merciful-

Through the efforts of the Manufac-
turers' and Producers Association and
the support of its members, the old Pho
neer Paper Mill at Taylorville IS again in
operation, and the new firm of NJ. Brown
& Sons, successors to the old S. P. Tay-

graduated in their earnest endeavor to
stimulate home manufacture.
The old Pioneer Paper Mill has been
closed for nearly year, but now, with new
life and the able management of Will Tay-
lor, who will superintend the entire plant,
the new firm Of M. Brown 81 Sons is in a
position to turn out as good a quality of
paper as can be bought in the market, and,
as they save freight from the East by max

quote lower prices than ever before.
BY placing your orders for all grades in
their line, such as wrapping paper, paper
bags and Irvine of every description, with
the above firm, you will receive the best
goods for the least money, as well as help

ROOT BEER VERSUS WATER.
Concessionaire Sriger Aggrieved by the
Mechanics Fair Auth critics.

Concessionaire Sriger Aggrieved by the
Mechanics Fair Authorities.
W. II. Stiger threatens to sue the direc-
tors of the Mechanics Institute for 1923
damages.
Stiger secured the root beer privilege at
the fair, agreeing to pay therefor SIPS. He
paid $50 on account, but when he came to
fit up his stand found that another exhib-
itor had placed adjacent thereto big fl
ter, bearing the legend, Free filtered
water" This Stiger claimed hurt his
sales, and he asked reduction of $50 from
the amount of his contract Some of the
trustees favored allowing him $37 80, but
that did not suit him. On Friday morn
ing, therefore, Superintendent Smythe re-
moved Stiger's stand from the fair.
The root beer man claims that the bal
ance of his contract was not due in any
case till Friday evening. He says that
Smythes action has left him "broke," and
he wants satisfaction.

the coming tire is said to be larger than
the tire now in use. This is generally &C

Therefore, added weight will be placed
where the greater strength is needed for

skill to lessen friction and increase speed.
With all the added weight, it is said that
the coming wheel will carry rider much

it was intended by large Western syndi-

he believed it would be for the benefit of

There is no charge for this service to the
