PICKANINNY STARTS FIRE
WITH DISASTROUS RESULT
CHILDISH PRANK CAUSES LARGE
DAMAGE
Willie Dunn Sets Blaze to Straw Pile
and 1t Spreads to His Mothers
Home, Barn and Contents, Destroy
ing Them and Scorching House

The desire of a four-year-old pick
aninny, Willie Dunn, to see big blaze
was the cause yesterday morning of a
fire which destroyed the home of his
mother and grandmother at 349 Fire
man street, barn next door with 17o
tons of hay, belonging to the Parker,
Morrill, & OFT Oil company, and dam
aged the home of Superintendent J. F.
Minnon.
The boy secured handful of matches
and set fire to a quantity of straw in
the yard of his home. Because he
wanted to see a bigger blaze, he then
set fire to the adjoining barn. The
flames spread from the barn to three
piles of hay in the yard and the wind
tlew the flames to the Dunn cottage.
By the time the fire company reached
the scene of conflagration it was pos
sible to do nothing more than save
Superintendent j. F. Minnon's house
and a part of the Dunn cottage. The
barn, with two wagons and other con-
tents, was destroyed. Mrs. Dunn lost
her household effects and savings of
$75 which she had in the house. The
loss on the barn and hay is estimated
at about $4,000, partly insured. The cot
tage, which was owned by Andrew
Glassnell, 329 Fireman street, was
damaged to the extent of $1,000, partly
insured.
Willie Dunn has been committed 10
the detention home.

DRYING WINDS
CAUSE OF HEAT
WARM WEATHER TO CONTINUE
INDEFINITELY
High Pressure, Extending From Me-
Vada In Increasing Gradients to
Southern Coast, Aids In
Torridity
1t could be warmer.

Although this is a patent fact, the
weather bureau "coolly-' announces that
yesterday was one degree cooler than
Sunday, although the human thermome-
ters did not so register. The mercurial
thermometer climbed to 92 yesterday,
while 1t reached SO Sunday.
An area of high pressure, extending
from Nevada with increasing gradients
toward the southern coast, Is accused
of responsibility for the torridity of the
past few days. This high pressure
causes drying northerly winds south of
the Tehachapi, consequently the tenn
perature was soaring.
While these conditions continue and
there is no relief in sight, continuance
of warm and fair weather is predicted,
although DR.. Franklin seeks to ex
tenuate the dastardly conduct of his
thermometer by the assurance that ex-
tremes need not be expected-as If one
of the extremes was not already on
hand.
There is a possible explanation of the
unappreciated conduct of the weather
in the fact of a warm" Office for the
bureau. The rooms have recently been
given a thorough renovation, the fur
niture has been highly polished until 1t
glitters like tourmaline gem from San
Diego, a brand new Brussels carpet
adorns the floor and polishing has been
going on with every instrument in the
great array of peculiar weather indi-
Gators and Projectors in the office. Even
the clock has been changed from Wash
ington time to that Of the Pacific coast,
and the visitor to the doctors den will
not be startled with a clock running
three hours ahead of time.
In addition, Assistant DR.. Fuller has
recovered from the effects of his daring
chase of the fellow who rode his bicycle
away from the postoffice building few
days ago and the temperature in his
vicinity is decidedly less than it was
Saturday.

Half the Former Price
Is the Way the Big Busy
Mammoth Shoe House
SIG South Broadway
Is Selling the G. W. Waterman Stock
Recently Bought By Them.

There is no question about the un-
derselling prices now on at the busy
Mammoth Shoe House, 519 So. Broad
way. Just drop in and look over the
forty or more bargain tables, notice
what the price tickets say about
prices. They tell the story plainly of
why this busy store disposes of such
stocks of splendid shoes as Watermans,
recently purchased at the ridiculous
price of 55 cents on the dollar. See
the shoes, marked in plain figures
For instance, Womens Shoes. Water
mans $500 grades $1.95; $3.50 Oxfords
and Slippers. $1,45. Another lot of
Slippers at CSC that sold formerly at
$500 and over. Children's Shoes-and
childrens shoes-here you'll find good
ones marked 25c, SOC, SOC, csc, that are
certainly worth three times as much.
Good, strong, hard wearing shoes for
boys at CSC that you've paid $500 for
many a time. Mems shoes at CSC, $1.45,
$1.95, $2.45, and which represent about
half the price you'd pay at Water
mans or any other first-class store.
1t will pay you big to go down and
see; it is really little wonder that re-
tail trade is going down below Fifth
street when such inducements as these
are offered.
And remember, anything you buy
there can be exchanged or money
back if the purchase is not satisfac-
tory. Just try the Mammoth Shoe
House-their number is 51s South
Broadway.

WIFE SPURNED,
SEEKS TO DIE
DRINKS QUANTITY OF ACID,
BUT LIVES
Mrs. Robert Baker Attempts Suicide
After Failure of Her Efforts to
Effect Reconciliation
With Husband

Crazed with anger because of failure
to effect a reconciliation with her hus-
band, Mrs. Robert Baker attempted to
commit suicide in her room at 5261a
South Spring street at o'clock last
evening by swallowing carbolic acid.
Quick action of Baker, who was III
the room, in administering an antidote
probably saved the woman's life.
Baker, who is a lineman for the Los
Angeles-Pacific, on his return home was
met at the door by his WIFE. According
to his statement she began to entreat
him to forget the little difference exist
ing between them for several days, but
he refused, and Immediately the woman
became frenzied.
With an imprecation. Mrs. Baker
grasped a small bottle of acid, and after
draining it's contents hurled the bottle
in an adjoining room. Mrs. Baker fell
on the bed and screamed in agony.
Fights for Death
B. w. Murrell, in response to the cries
of Baker for help, entered the room and
grappled with the woman. Mrs. Baker
fought fiercely but was overpowered,
and Baker forced her to swallow an
antidote.
Despite her agony Mrs. Baker real
lied that her husband and Murrell were
trying to prevent her death, and with a
desperate effort wrenched her hands
free, grasped a hat pin and began to
fight them. Her strength was falling
and she was soon under control.
Mrs. Baker was removed to the re-
ceiving hospital and DR.. Freedman,
after an examination, said that she
would probably recover.
Mrs. Baker and 1 were married
nearly five years ago at the home of
her father, H. Whittlesea, CIT San Pedro
street." said Baker last night, land
