THE FIESTA COMMITTEE
Is AgreeabIy Surprised by an Offer Of
Assistance From a College
The Floral Parade Committee to Go to Santa
Barbara Today in a Body to
Perfect Details

The Fiesta committee received most
pleasant surprise yesterday in the follow
ing letter from the Los Angeles Business
college,
Mr. c. u. Willard. Secretary Chamber of
Commerce: My Dear Sir-The season for
La Fiesta festivities is fast approaching,
and we understand that you are to have
some historical floats which will require a
number of characters.
We would like TO proffer to you and your
committee the services of our students to
represent these different characters. We
have an attendance of about 225 students
from which to draw, and we believe out of
these a sufficient number can be had
to represent the different characters
upon all your historical floats during
the Fiesta week. The managers of this
college will be glad to render you any as
sistance in their power.
The public spirited offer of the man
ayers of the college has solved one of the
most perpleNing propositions the fiesta
management has had under consideration.
With the aid of the students the floats will
be we'll manned and the offer has been
thankfully and gladly accepted.
The flag TO be used by the school children
at the patriotic celebration at Sixth street
parh has been donated by Mr.. John F.
Francis as tribute to and III honor of the
school children of this city. The flag will
be the largest in Southern California
and its dimensions will be limited only by
the support that the 12O-foot pole can give
it. When the stars and Stripes are thrown
to the breeze in the afternoon of April oath
they will be seen for miles around.
The committee having in charge the
floral parade held a meeting yesterday
afternoon and decided to go to Santa Bar
bara today in a body to consult with the
floral committee of that city in regard to
the details of that important event.
The premium and prize list will be ready
for publicity tomorrow.
Mr.. E. Wachte, the we'll known artist,
has painted the different floats in oil, from
which the plates have been made that will
be used III the official program and souve-
mir of the Fiesta. The best art critics who
have seen Mr. Wachtel's paintings and the
engravings, have unanimously pronounced
them one of the most artlstic pieces of
work created by paint and brush

TO A PAUpER'S GRAVE
Minnie Judy Will Rest ia 0nc Unles:
Claimed by Relatives
Coroner's Inquest Upon the Body Of the
WestIake Sulcide-No New Facts
Are Developed

Coroner Campbell held an inquest yes
terday morning at the undertaking rooms
of Orr 4 Hines upon the re mains of Miss
Minnie Judy, the unfortunate girl whose
body was found in Westake park last
Wednesday morning.
Nothing that would tend 20 throw any
light on the motive for the deed was ad-
duced, and from present appearances the
whole affair seems likely to remain
wrapped in mystery.
An autopsy disclosed the fact that the
woman was not enciente, and also that
she was afflicted with certain troubles pe-
cuiar to her sex. Her physician, who had
treated her ailments for some time, was
put upon the stand and stated that Miss
Judy often complained of her lot and sale
life was not worth living.
Remarks of a similar nature had been
made to Mrs. Robinson, tine lady whose ac.
quaintance Miss Judy formed while aboard
the steamer on the trip from the north to
this city.
A gentleman who did not give his name
called at the morgue in the afternoon and
identified the body. He had known Miss
Judy in Portland, in which city she had
boarded at the same house as he. While
there she had seemed of an exceptionally
sunny and taopy nature and had
always conducted herself in becoming
manner.
Fred Park, the Santa Fe fireman, who it
is said had been calling on Miss Judy, and
who was reputed 70 have in his posses ion
letter from the dead girl, did not appear
at the inquest. as he is out on the road on
his run. He had informed Mrs. Robinson,
however, that while he had paid some at
tention to Miss Judy. they were never en-
gagged and he knew little of her intentions.
Upon ring which was taken from the
middle finger of her left hand was an in
scription engraved, From Fred to Min
nie," but this it is denied was present
from Park to the girl.
At late hour last evening no word had
been received in reply to the kilograms
which had been sent to the brother and
married sister of the deceased, who reside
in Oregon. The body will be kept for one
or two days in the hope that instructions
may be received which will save the re.
mains from pauper's grave. Should no
one come forward this will have to be their
disposition. as all the money left by de-
ceased was 10 cents. After hearing the
evidence the jury returned verdict of
suicide by drowning, in accordance with
the facts.

THE FRIDAY MORNING CLUB

Sumner p. Hunt Lectures on California Ills
sion Architecture
At the weekly meeting OF the Friday
Morning club yesterday Sumner P. Hunt, a
rising young architect of Los Angeles, read
paper in the interest of the Landmarks
club, entitled California Mission Archi-
lecture.
A short time ago public meeting of the
Landmarks club was held to create an in
terest in its work-that of perpetuating for
all time to come the historic ruins of
Southern California, particularly the old
Spanish missions, as landmarks of the first
civilization of this coast.
At that meeting most interesting essay
was read on the romantic phase of the old
missions, which threw about these relics of
crude toll and monuments of religious zeal
a beautiful halo of a historic and pictur-
esque past. Realistic details were given
by means of vivid pictures that drew the
Imagination back to those early days when
the church fathers made the first religious
home for the unschooied Indian who lived
within and around these walls that today
are fast crumbllng away from vandalism
and neglect
Yesterday to continue the interest Mr..
Hunt took up particularly the architectural
features of the missions, which were pre-
sented III an interesting and instructive
manner. He SAID: "San Juan Capistrano
Is taken as the representative of the mis-
sion buildings. The architecture is clearly
the renaissance of Southern Europe and
quite as much Italian as Spanish. 1t has
absolutely no touch of the Gothic, and
judging by its details, none of the Moorish.
1t has a suggestion of the Spanish
Mooresque in its heavy wall effects and in
the grouping of the buildings A notable
feature which has no precedent in European
work, is the gable treatment. San Luis
Rey is the best illustration of this, although
the most familiar is the San Gabriel bell
tower. 1t would seem that the mission
builders. appreciatng their shortcomings
in the working of detail, became very SEN
sitive to beauty of outline. At Monterey,
however, the facade of the main church is
beautifully carried out in O renaissance
treatment of the Roman Doric which ad-
mlts of no criticism.
The color had much to do with the sue
cess of the style, the white walls accentuat-
ing lights and shadows OF the strong sun
shine, and the rich red of the tile roofs
forming fine contrast to the brilliant
hues of mountain and sky. The altars and
chancel screens favor the Ionian order and
the work is thoroughly good. The interi-
ors, in their elaborate decoration and high
coloring, however, SAVIOR of the barbaric
ideas OF the untutored Indian. AS whole,
the old structures are magnificent speci-
mems of vaulted masonry, but are lament
ably deficient in wooden construction,
which accounts for the general unroofing

OF the buildings and their untmely decay,
Great interest in the subject and in the
advancement of the Landmarks cub was
shown at the conclusion of the address
and many questions concerning the work
ings OF the organization were asked.
In reply MIR. Hunt stated that it was not
the OBJECT of the club to restore any por-
tion OF the ruins. 1t was merely a renewal
to the extent of conserving them in thar
present state from further crumbling and
decay.
He seid San Juan is now in process of re-
pairs for which $3.50 will be required. We
have nearly that amount now. One thous-
and dollars will be needed to conserve all of
'he seven buildings. Many persons in the
east who have visited the missions, ami
noted the apathy of CalfornianS in respect
to these historical Iegacas. have very gem
erously come forward with offers of as
slstance. believing that they owe to the
country. duty of retaining the only ruins
in the nited States. The Catholic church.
TO whom the missions belong, has also met
all propositions half way. 1t has given
gratuitous lease of san Juan for ten years
and an option by which the club if disposed
and able at the expiration of the lease
may become the purchasers of this mis-.
sion, which is the foremost of the old land
marks.

ALL DAY CHURCH MEETING
Held at the Four-foii Gospel Tabernacle
Yesterday

| Held at the Foar-foii Gospel Tabernacle
Yesterday
An all day meeting, under the auspices
of the Gospel tabernacle, was held yester-
! day at the Forresters' hall on North Main
stree. The services. which were divided
into morning and afternoon session. were
attended by representatives of different
denominations. The object of the meeting
was to tea ch that directness of faith. which
is the belief of the Four-fold Gospel church,
to induce Christian workers today to follow
the precepts of Christ who, when on the
earth, mnistered to both the body and the
SOUL
The morning session was opened with
prayer by the Rev. w. c. Stevens, pastor
of the Gospel tabernacle. Rev. H. j. Pier
son of Newark. n. j., and Mrs. Pierson,
who are both engaged in evangeistic work.
were the principal speakers at both ses-
sions. In the morning ev. Pierson gave
Bible reading, opening with the text,
Ezekial A. and following with contiguous
teachings taken from various portions of
the scriptures. Mrs. Pierson followed
with similar line of instruction begin
ming her exhortation with Mark ri.
In the afternoon Mr.. Pierson drew les
sons from his practical teachings of the
gospel in his every day work. He cited in
stances i'll evangelical paths when it was
poor to religious instruction. He referred
10 methods resorted to among The poor in
New York and other large cities, where
Christianity was applied with great success
by first administering small quantities of
bread and coffee to the cold and hungry.
Mr.. Pierson believes that with slight
warming of the physical nature there is
better hope, of inspiring spiritual anima-
ton.
Mrs. Pierson followed with a practical
talk on Prayer. She thought that most
people failed in receiving answers to prayer
from lack of understanding Gods will.
She dwell on the Bible teaching, "Whatso-
ever We desire, believe that ye have"
After le address, the Rev. Stevens
opened the meeting Tor an expression of
Testimonies. Men and women. young and
old. testified to a belief in Christ and de-
sire to follow in His footsteps. Many Sec
tons of hymns were sung between the
avowais of faith.
A pre-millennial conference will be given
at Pencil hall next Tuesday and Wednes-
day under the leadership of DR.. Brookes of
