to their surroundings, who provoke
mirth without horse play, keeping
the audience in roars of laughter for
two hours and a halt without once
resorting to vulgarity or grotesque-

Mayor McAleer has addressed another

mayor and notified him that the Welsh
society here desired that Miss Jones be
given a public hearing.
Mayor McAleer said yesterday: at
am awaiting developments and can
not say now when 1 will be ready to
act. 1t may be tomorrow or it may be
next week. AS a cold proposition of
law I know, and all others who have
investigated the law on the subject
know, that the library directors have
the power to dismiss a librarian.

or not is a different proposition and I

ING DAMAGES
Judge James Refused to Believe Appe-
tlte of Chickens Was So Varlegated
That They Could Comfortably Di-

The question as to whether a turkey
will eat the green tops from young
potatoes and refuse to nibble at the
juicy stem of fresh corn, which has
been causing trouble in department ]
of the superior court for several days,
has at last been decided and the per-
formance of the turkeys has been de-
clared by Judge James to have been
imaginative.
The case over which the discussion
arose was brought by Adolph Marks, a
German living at Ivanhoe, against
Samuel Walker. Marks declared the
fowls belonging to his neighbor over
ran his little farm, dug UP the potatoes
and devoured them and then went after
a crop of alfalfa and comfortably
slowed that away.
AS direct proof, Marks produced sew
eral stalks of corn, ranging from seven
to nine feet in height, and declared the
turkeys and chickens had wandered
over his land, eating potatoes and al
falfa and ate the corn grains from the
cob. This piece of evidence was taken
under advisement and declared to be
imaginative. Judge James was also
skeptical regarding the evidence that
the fowls had dug up fence from
around the Marks yard.
The decision declared that wild birds

A yacht that was a yacht only until

determine who was the owner of the
yacht when that much-abused vessel
was wrecked and used for firewood
many months ago.
The suit was brought by T. A. Moody
against K. o. Stromee and the Incl
dents are alleged to be as follows: Dur
ing the fall months of last year Moody
owned a small yacht and had it an
chored off San Pedro bay. At the same
time Stromee owned an automobile
which, although much the worse fol

HUSBAND DENIES CHARGES
AFTER WIFE HAS DIVORCE
AdoIph Scharff States His Defense by
Letter to The
Herald

TICIdiQ
AS the result of the publication of the
charges made by Mrs. Geneva Scharff
of Pasadena against her husband,
Adolph Scharff, in which the man was
accused of cruelties toward her. one
being the refusal to secure medical aid
for her during an illness, a letter was
received by The Herald yesterday from
Scharff, in which he Indignantly denies
many Of the allegations.
"The charges against me arr false"
he asserted. 'I always tried to do right
by Mrs Scharff, and. she was never
compelled to do more than an ordinary
amount of work.
"The unpleasant allegations of per-
sonal nature 1 allowed to go by default
out of consideration for Mrs. Scharff
and because it seemed best for us both
that a divorce be granted, although
I have repeatedly denied the truth OF
these charges.
Mrs. Scharff has never been COM
PEELED by me to do any very hard work,
has never been treated otherwise than
considerably by me- and has always
had the privilege of receiving medical
aid while sick, as can be easily proved
by consulting DIR. Amsden of Pasadena,
who was her physician"
