When Nance ONeill and Mckee
Rankin went off to try their histrionic
fortune in Australia they took James
II. Love along as advance agent and
general utility man. They did a big
business in the Antipodes, and then
Love was sent off to South Africa and
to London to pave the way for future
triumphs. Now Love is back in sgd
ney, has had falling out with the two
stars and has begun suit against them
for G2,000 which is nearly $4,000.
His lawyers, Curtle & Barry, had
writs served on Gertrude Lampson
Nance O'NeilD and Rankin, and the
fleeing but versatile Rankin declares
he will fight to the bitter end. Love
has written of the trouble somewhat
as follows:
Rankin sent me off on a prospect
ing tour to South Africa and London
and then tried to lose me, $4,000 miles
from my base of supplies and almost
broke. But Nance O'Neil had presented
me with a very fine watch just before
l started on my journey, and that
watch brought me back to Australia,
much to her disgust
Now, for all that, think they should
be willing to pay me for my time and
expenses i'm making the trip to South
Africa and London for them. But Ran
kin declares he'll pay out no more, and
that I'll have to walk home The walk
ing is very poor between hera and san
Francisco, so I'm going to give them
a hard tussle for those G2,C0p."

MISS COFFIELD Hurt.

Miss Coffield, a trained nurse of the
Queens hospital, fell into the big ditch
on Anapuni street Monday night and
sustained injuries that will lay her up
for some time to come. She was re-
turning from a visit to a friend on the
hill above and stepped off the sidewalk
into the uncovered abyss. The bridge
there covers the road but not the side
walks at either end There is nothing
to warn a pedestrian of the danger un-
til a landing is made at the bottom of
the little, murky creek, filled with
stones.
