PASADENA Aug. 2S.-(Regular Core
spondence) f. r. Haskins, son of the
proprietor of a tourist hotel a Sierra Ma
DIRE, was arrested this afternoon by Con-
stable Slater on a warrant charging nm
with adultery.
Mrs. r. A. Fisher of Los Angeles came up
this morning and swore to complaint
which charges that Haskin and Mrs. Fish
er's 1S-year-old daughter Ola lived to-
gether in the Los Angeles house of this
city Sunday, Monday. Tuesday and We'd
nesday OF this week. and that the CRIME
charged was committed on these nights.
Justice Rossiter, after making out the com
plaint did net file it, but sent it in Mrs.
Fishers hands to the district attorney In
Los Angeles for his approval.
Justice Rossiter was uncertain, owing to
the obscurity as TO the identity of the man
charged, whether the complaint would
hold. Mrs. Fisher, who is member of the
Los Angeles Salvation Army, said That her
daughter has be an employed at Haskin,
sr.'s, hotel in Sierra Madre as chambermaid
and waitress She and Haskin arrived at
the Los Angeles house very early Sunday
morning and registered as Mr.. and Mrs
Mar of Los Angeles. Mr.. Leach. the pro-
prietor of the Los Angeles house, sus-
pected nothing wrong with them, as they
were quiet and paid up promptly. The girl
visited her mother in Los Angeles on Tues
kin to whom she was to be married as
soon as he secured a divorce from his
wife. She did not explain that she and Has
kin were living together as man and wife,
and Mrs. Fisher was led to suppose that
Ola was still at work at Haskin's hotel.
The girl was married when under IS years
of age to an Alfred Wallace in the east.
Wallace failed TO support her and later Sc
cured divorce from her on the ground Of
deserton. Her mother says she has al
ways borne good name.
The district attorney, in view of the evil
dence which Mrs. Fisher secured in Pasa-
dena and partly on the identification of
Haskin as Mar with Mr.. Leachs help,
filed the complaint Constable Slater ar

o'clock. Haskin is 2S years of age, and

Fred Wilson, the boy convicted of stealing
grain sacks some time ago, appeared be-
fore the recorder this morning and was
sentenced to pay fine of $50 or go to Jail
fifty days. AS he did not have money TO
pay the fine he was taken into Los Angeles
to the jail. Fred broke out in tears when his
sentence was pronounced. Fred is regard

which he has told concerning his parents

of others are proved to be fabrcations

pany, had an officer guarding the effects
of the company. which, the directors have
decided, are to be removed from the opera
house block to 63 South Raymond avenue
Yesterday when the men came to move
the effects Prof Lowe appeared and or
dered them to desist because, he said, they
did not know just what articles were the
company's and what was his own. This del
