NEW MISSION
IS DEDICATED
BISHOP HAMILTON CONDUCTS
EXERCISES
Boyle Heights Methodist Church
Builds Mission for Carrying on
Its Work In the Com
munity

The new mission of the Boyle Heights
Methodist church was dedicated yester-
day afternoon by Bishop Hamilton
This mission is located at the corner of
Malabar and Sheridan streets, i'm a
growing section Of Boyle Heights The
mission is 27x56 feet, and is portable
building having been erected at a cost
of $1,000. Commencing Thursday eve
ming regular prayer meetings will be
held. and on each Sunday afternoon,
Sunday school services. 1t is hoped to
have regular preaching services in the
near future. Leon Francis, who is
studying for the ministry, will have
charge of the Sunday school
The mission was crowded to its ut
most seating capacity for the service
yesterday afternoon. The following
clergymen were present and assisted
in the service: Revs. S. A. Thompson,
A. w. Atkinson, p. II. Bodkin, d. H.
Bryant. Lewis Curtis, Fred Ross and j.
r. Ross. Bishop Hamilton preached
the sermon, taking his topic from a
portion of the fourth chapter of St.
John. He spoke of the Jewish race, an
cient and modern and the incident of
Christ meeting the woman at the well
and of the differences of the nations.
He said in part:
with one fell speech, the Jew, son
of Man and son of God. smote all racial
discrimination the world around. If the
salvation of God is from man to man,
L.
responsibility that reposes in you and
me. No one is too old or too young.
We have been accustomed to think
old people have nothing to do. 1 think
the best opportunity a man has to
preach is when he is old. They draw
that which is good from the young peo
pie. 1 have a profound regard for the
Chinese nation. because of the venera-
ton they pay to their patriarchs.
1.-The greatest influence a man eXerts
in life is not his speech or public ut
terances. The best impressions left in
this life are the unconscious impress
sions unconscious influences that
emanate from old age, when there is
no time for hypocrisy. There is no diff
ference in age you have an opportunity
to WELD an influence of which you will
never know in this world. Old people,
keep your lamp trimmed and burning,
shine a bit, and God will bless it. Many
a man may save a soul from sin and
death by simply living a pure life. How
much have you made the world better
for having lived in it?'
Following the sermon Presiding Elder
A. w. Atkinson gave a short sketch of
the history of the work of the mission,
and w. L. Cleveland presented the
mission to the bishop for dedication.
The dedicatory service then followed,
after which benediction was given.

Prepares to Die

Early Friday evening he registered
at the Hollenbeck. and, as he had no
baggage with him, paid for his room
for one night. He then made prepara-
tions for ending his life. The report
of the revolver was not heard by any
one of the guests in the vicinity Of
room 1872. which was occupied by West,
and the discovery of the suicide did not
take place until o'clock Sunday morn
ing, when a bell boy opened the door.
Coroner Trout was summoned and
took charge of the body. He believed
that death must have taken place some
time early Saturday evening.
The body was found in half reclin-
ing position on the bed. West removed
his collar, tie and coat and. after
bandaging the cotton soaked with chlo-
reform across his mouth and nostrils,
placed the revolver close to his left
breast and pulled the trigger. The
underclothing was powder burned by
the explosion.
When the body was found the revol-
yer, a cheap weapon of the bull dog
type and evidently new, was still
clutched tightly in the right hand of
the dead man.

OFFICIALS MAKE FAST
TIME IN NEW PARL0R CAR
General Traffic Manager and Adver-
Using Managers Of Pacific Electric
Road on Inspection Trip

General Manager A. d. SCHNEIDER Of
the Pacific Electric lines, Traffic
Manager J. Mcmillan and Advertising
Manager H. N. S. Kneedler, made an
inspection trip Of the coast Terminals
Of the Pacific Electric railway yester-
day afternoon. The tour OF observa-
tion was made i'm the new parlor car
819. which has just been put into SER
vice
What the object of the trip was mem
bers of the party refused to say, but
from the fact that the larger part of the
afternoon was spent at Alamitos Bay,
It is believed the project of the Pacific
Railways Amusement company at that
point had much to do with the inspec-
tion trip. as Mr.. Mcmillan is president
of the enterprise.
From Los Angeles to Alamitos Bay
on the Long Beach line is twenty six
miles and the party, leaving Los An
geles at noon, were at the coast ter
minal in thrty-fve minutes. J. j.
Jenkins, vice-president and general
manager of the Pacific Railways
Amusement company, met them there
and acted as host at a luncheon given
on his house boat.
From Alamitos Bay a trip was made
to Huntington Beach, where the ter
mnal facilities of the line were also
investigated with the possibility of
some Improvements before the summer
season opens. From Huntington Beach
the party returned to Los Angeles. The
distance of thirty-two and one-half
miles was covered in forty minutes.

BRICK CONTRACT
COMES UP TODAY
COUNCIL WILL WRESTLE WITH
OLD QUESTION
City Engineers Office Sounds Note
of Warning Regarding the
Old Outfal
Sewer

At a meeting of the council this
morning it is expected that report
will be received from the sewer COM
mittee that will enable the council to
take some definite action in regard to
the contract with the Independent
Brick company for supplying the brick
for the outfall sewer
Chairman Kern of the sewer commit
tee said Saturday he feels the time has
arrived when positive action should be
taken. He believes consequences of a
grave character will undoubtedly re-
suit from a continuation of the delay
that has occurred in the construction
of the sewer by the failure of tha
brick people to keep their part of the
contract.
Members of the council recognize the
danger of delaying action any longer
and it is expected that some solution
of the perplexing question will be
reaC he'd today.
Recently the efforts of the city Of
ficials who are handling the brick bust
ness have been directed toward COM
promise with the Independent COM
pany. 1t is now proposed to release
the brick company from further re-
sponsibility under its 1000 bond if in
return the company will give the city
a clear right of way across it's lands
at Inglewood
The survey of the line of the outfall
sewer runs across these lands, and the
company has all along demanded $780,
900 for the privilege from the city of
crossing it's lands.
A meeting of the officials of the city
and the directors of the company was
held Saturday afternoon and the whole
situation was gone over carefully. 1t
is said an agreement was reached, but
those interested declined to state the
nature of this arrangement before the
meeting of the council
Some facts stand out plainly from
the fog of words and mist of council
manic eloquence in regard to the new
outfall sewer. one of these is that the
present outfall sewer is working to its
full capacity all the time.
The limit of capacity was reached
months ago Meantime the city is
growing at a phenomenal rate and the
water department is making constant
additions to the many miles of mains
already laid.
In the city engineers Office there is
constant apprehension of a serious
break i'm the overworked outfall sewer.
Yet. at the best, two years must elapse
before the new work will be completed
At the rate of progress since the Inde-
pendent company secured the brick con
tract the indications are that the
Panama canal will be finished long be-
fore the Los Angeles outfall sewer is
completed.
The fire commission has finally
reached an agreement with the repre-
sentatives of the fire engine companies
that will admit Of holding the test OF
the competing machines on Saturday
January 81 This is one of the thing:
decided upon at the star chamber ses.
sion of Mayor McAleer's board of fire
commissioners ON Saturday.

AsBURY METHoDISTs HAPPY
New Church Building in East Los
Angeles Is Dedicated

Angeles is DSOiCdlcu
The new building of the Asbury
Methodist church, on Workman street,
East Los Angeles, was dedicated at the
service last evening by Bishop Hamil
ton.
This church, which was organized
twenty-five years ago, has dedicated
two church buildings, the second dedi-
cation taking place yesterday. AT the
morning service several former pas
tors were present and took part in the
service. The main auditorium and
Sunday school room were crowded with
a large congregation. Potted plants,
palms and ferns, with poinsettias,
formed the decorations. Rev. ]. C.
Healy, the pastor, had charge of the
service, assisted by Revs. S. A. Thomp-
son, presiding elder, e. A. Healy, G.
f. Bovard, E. S. Chase. p. H. Bodkin,
Otto Wilke and Uren.
The church was dedicated entirely
clear from Indebtedness. At the SER
vices s5O50 was raised, making the sum
of $13,50O which has been raised by
this congregation for the new church
building.
Bishop Hamilton took for his topic
the twentieth chapter of st. Matthew,
part of the seventh verse, Whatsoever
is right, that ye shall receive" He
dwelt on the lot of the unfortunates,
and their recompense. He said in part:
1.-The arguments for another life is in
this life. The necessity for another
world is argued in the needs of this
world The incompleteness, made
quacy, unfairness injustice, disappoint-
ments. defeat and despair as things are
seen here, make it necessary for any
possible harmony in the government of
the universe; that somewhere the in
complete shall be made complete.
Righteousness is a necessity for any
harmony of law, life or government
There could be no possible thinking
that would satisfy the human mind
and heart unless, somehow, righteous
ness was to prevail. This itself creates
the argument for supplement to this
world and life to avoid despair. The
throne of God and all ii stands for is
the pledge to the final supremacy of
Righteousness everywhere. All things
shall be made right, so that no fault
can be found"

the two trains, and place the RESPONSE
bility entirely on the trainmen of train
to heed the signals transmitted to them
by the first section of train Sc.
Signals Were Plain.
The signals not only consisted OF
green lights carried on the engine OF
the east bound train, signifying that a
second section was following with
equal rights of way, but series OF
whistles to indicate this fact was blown
by the engineer Of the first section OF
number 90 and answered by Engineer
Shields Of number So. While the order
transmitted to number So did not ex-
plicitly state that second section was
following number sc, its meaning was
perfectly plain on this point, and even
the trainmen admit that it could not
be misunderstood. Train So, the east
bound fast meat train, was a train of
the second class and therefore entitled
to the right-of-way over train SIS, west
bound, train of the third class, In
which right the second section of SO
shared.
Train So was late, however. and
orders were sent to train IS that the
first section of SO would wait until GER

1t was the misinterpretation of these
orders. and not incorrect orders to Sc,
that caused the wreck.

Ida Grove, Nov. 1.-Several residents
OF Ida Grove Interested in the pro.
! posed four-year term of office for
, state, county and township offices have
gone to considerable trouble
to learn the exact sentiment in west
ern and northwestern Iowa relative tc
proposed legislation next winter. The
result OF the investigation is very sat-
isfactory to these gentlemen who
strongly favor the four-year plan. In
but few Instances was any opposition
to the longer term encountered, and
in those cases the attitude was one
of apathy or indifference rather than
opposition. In almost all cases those
favoring the four-year term were foun,,
to be doing so enthusiastically. while
those opposing 1t are half-hearted and
apathetic in their opposition.
The territory over which the data
has been carefully gathered includes
Is to 20 counties. and as this com
prises about one fifth OF the state, it
is taken as a. fair indication OF the SEN
timent throughout the entire state.
This expression Of sentiment has not
been secured from those who might be
interested In a longer term for per-
sonal reasons, but from a class who
are interested In all legislation, and
who are always closely in touch with
the sentiment on questions of impor-
lance in their respective neighbour
hoods. An expression has been Sc
cured from many members of the leg
islature, though number Of members
decline at this time to express theni-
selves either for or against the pro-
position. Without an exception, every
definite expression made by senator
or representative in reply to these
queries has been favorable to the long
term.
In asnumber Of instances those who
are now ardent supporters of the four
yaar plan were opposed to the bien-
NAL election law, but consider this tbs
only method of perfecting that law
and of avoiding the awkward condi-
tons which woula naturally arise
from the election OF all inexperienced
Officials at one election. This condi-
ton, as expressed by one. is one which
was extremity unforeseen by Senator
TITUS in drafting the biennial election
bill. r s n condition. however, which
for tire heretofore existed. and was
found SO impractical that the legisla-
rure4 was called upon to. make a
change. which that ebo1y did bv ex-
tending the term Of certain officers

might not be elected at the same time

closely connected with it.
