CALLS HER BROTHERS LIARS
Mrs. G. D, Peterson Becomes Hyster-
ical When Suit Is Decided
AGAINST Her

After a decision against her had been
read in Justice Pierce's township court
yesterday afternoon Mrs. G. D. Peter
son became hysterical, denounced the
judge and his ruling and called down
wrath upon the heads of her two broth
ers, who were prosecuting the case
against her.
The suit was for $50. George and Fred
Hennessy were the plaintiffs and they
demanded that Mrs. Peterson, their sis
ter, pay them the money which they
allege was a debt. Mrs. Peterson told
the court that she had recently received
$50 from an estate left by her mother
and that the boys were jealous and had
brought suit against her to get the
money.
When Justice Pierce read his verdict
upholding the claim of the plaintiffs
Mrs. Peterson shouted: 1T isn't fair.
This court has done wrong. The plain
tiffs are liars" She was ushered from
the court room, still sobbing and hys-
terical.

The members of the California state

their regular session in this city for the
examination of prospective opticians,
were rendered a banquet in the carna-
tion room of the Hollenbeck hotel last
night.
Plates were laid for sixty persons and
fully that number was present to en-
joy the repast and listen to the inter-
esting responses made to toasts. Presi-
dent S. G. Marshutz of the board acted
as toastmaster. Dr. J. Littlefieid of To-
pel1a, Kas., and an official of the ma
tional board of optometry, was the
speaker of the evening and gave an in
teresting talk of modern phases of the
profession of optometry. Prominent
opticians from various parts of Califor-
mia were present and many from differ
ent points on the coast. Among the
latter was Mark Wilzinski of Seattle, a
member of the Washington state board
of optometry.

COUNCIL REQUESTED TO
BRING FORFEITURE SUIT
MEMBERS STARTLED BY PLAN OF
LEGAL DEPARTMENT
Rights of Los Angeles Railway on
Many Streets Questioned-No Ac-
tlon Probable Until the Present
MuddIe Has Been Settled

For the first time in many months
the legal department of the city made
a recommendation. This department
usually refuses to make recommends
tions of any kind whatsoever. main
tanning that it's province is advisory
and not initatory. 1t was evident that
the city council wished that this depart
ment had stuck to it's hidebOund GUS
tom of simply advising on a pending
proceeding and not initiating one, for
the recommendation of the legal depart
ment was that steps be Immediately
taken to introduce a forfeiture suit in
volving the entire franchise of the Los
Angeles Railway company from Pico
house to First street, on First to Los
Angeles, on Los Angeles to Fifth, on
Fifth to San Pedro and over San Pedro
and South Park avenue to the southern
city limits.
The face of every member of the
council was an individual study in
mingled expression as this recommen-
dation was read. but one expression
was plainly visible on every face. This
was an intense ennui.
Tear up more track with the South
Park avenue muddle unsolved. Bring
probably a hundred angry citizens
buzzing around their ears where there
was one now? Hold special sessions of
the council every day for a week, as
had been done during the last week?
Not if they could at least stave off the
fatal day.
But a recommendation from the city
attorney is such a rare thing that it
demands some sort of recognition, and
it was referred to the legislative COM
mittee as being the surest means of
effecting a temporary interment. The
legislative committee meets at the call
of the chairman and the chairman calls
the committee when there is enough
business to occupy it's attention. This
usually happens about once a month,
so that the council can feel that some
solution of the South Park avenue prob
lem will be reached before the for
feiture suit Is begun.

Ford Comes to the Rescue

Councilman Ford hurried to the as

that the clause be stricken from the re-
port When a vote was taken Council
man Blanchard, who voted for the new
city hall site and who is a member of
the board of public works, and Council
man Kern, who also voted for the site
and who Is chairman of the board of
public works. voted no although
every other member of the council voted
AYE" With the majority of the board
opposed to the park proposition it
looked dark for Mr.. Summerlands pet
project. Councilman Hitler, the third
member of the board, was not present
at yesterday mornings session when
the vote was taken, but he has persist
entity voted mo" on the acceptance of
the new city hall site and as the pros
poets for the park hinge largely on Mr..
Sumerland's vote for the site, it is not
unlikely that Councilman Hitler will
feel it incumbent on him to make a mi
nority report favoring the park.
The objections to the park are due to
the fact that there is no money in the
city treasury for that purpose. The
residents of Pico Heights, however, are
so anxious for the improvement that
they are making efforts to raise enough
money among the residents of that dis
trict to pay for it without demanding
anything of the city further than the
permission to establish it.
