Both Sides of Stephenson Avenue,
East of EucIid-Commissio
ers Favor Acceptance

Seven acres of land, lying on both
sides of Stephenson avenue, east of
Euclid avenue was yesterday offered
to the board of park commissioners
for a park. on the one condition that
the city improve it when there was
sufficient money in the treasury for
the purpose. The commission will
make a recommendation to the council
next Monday that the land be ac-
cepted, if it meets with the approval
of the board.
G. H. Parent, representing the prop
erty owners of the neighborhood, ap-
peared before the board yesterday
morning and offered to give the land
to the city, free of incumbrance.
Most of it has already been donated
and those who have not given their
share are only waiting to see an in
dication of favorable action on the part
of the commission" said Mr.. Parent.
THE ground is hardly worth building
homes on as it is cut by gulch, but
it would be ideal for a park
This part of the city is being built
up rapidly. Stephenson avenue is S215
feet wide for it's entire length and will
be one of the handsomest boulevards
IL the city when completed. Contracts
for more than $4,000 worth Of street
work have been let for this street alone
and a car line will soon be built on it.
We propose to call the park Lorena

rena Heighths."

handfuls and pocketed it in her shirt
waist.
Just as she did so the chain gang
came in from the days work. And she
spied Pat dropping his anchor on the
pavement from the wagon. With a
wild rush she flew into his arms amid
bewildered blinkings of Pat.
"An' yez told the newspaper-r-r-rs

yez wild enough iron on yez to sink a

biff! Pats marred features came into
sudden contact with Bridget's chubby
fist.
Pat attempted to retaliate, but the
chief of the chain gang came to Mrs.
Garrity's rescue, while a sub-chief of
the same organization encircled the
bellicose Mrs. Garrity.
Pat became unruly. He struck right
and left, leaving big apertures in the
atmosphere surrounding the city bas-
tile. Three officers helped to escort
Pat to his apartments m the prison.
When he was locked inside some one
handed him his sack of tobacco. Pat
gazed at it long and earnestly. Then
he opened it,
"Well Oill be -" he muttered,
looking around him mysteriously.

Ven1ber 8

Nine. Helena Modjeska, who is now
in New York rehearsing her company
at the Lyceum theater for her farewell
tour of America. has written to friends
in Los Angeles of her plans.
Madame Modjeska's company will
open at Harrisburg, Pa, November 6,

state officials.
Marie Stuart will be our first

have time to rehearse none of the other
plays to be given during my visit until
after we leave New York. We will get
them into shape for presentation While
we are on the road.
"I bade good-by to New York audi
ences last year, and now [ will bid
farewell to my other friends in this
country. From Harrisburg we will go
to Chicago, and work from there to
the Pacific coast, appearing in all the
big cities en- route. Then we return
tc Chicago, and from there go south.
We will not go to any of the New

DISCUSS CROWDED SCHOOLS
Fire Commissioner Betouski Takes Up
Cause of Children, but Finds
Mo Relief

Fire Commissioner Betouski has
taken up the cause of 1000 school chill
dren in the sixth and seventh wards,
who are crowded into three buildings,
and yesterday he held a consultation
with members of the school board in
an effort to solve the problem. The
board has stated that it is powerless
to provide more school buildings until
the school bonds are sold.
The Ninth, Fourteenth and Twenti-
eth street school houses are so badly
crowded that in some of the rooms only
halliday sessions can be held.
; This congestion is partly accounted
for by the fact that just before re-
itiring from Office the old school board
sold the Sixth street school grounds to
the Huntington interests for freight
depot.

Information coming from the city tax
collectors office tending to accuse Cur
tbs c. Colyear, furniture dealer Of
322 South Main street, of usury, was
placed before Acting Chief of Police

niture shall not exact more than one
per cent interest per month. Anyone
violating this act is liable to fine of
not less than $100.
In examining the county records a
chattel mortgage, book 164, page 2O6,

interest per month. The property con-
sisted of horse, buggy and office fur
niture. Another found was made by
o. F. Waters to Colyear and was at
the rate of per cent per month. The
collateral in this case was also horse,
but, in the act passed by the legisla-
ture, horses are not included. Captain

committee in endeavoring to force the
people of Los Angeles to vote on the
question of equipping the cars of the

TEsTIFIES IN ROADBED CASE
Expert Says Any Kind of Oil May Be
Used to Construct High
waVS

In the case of the Dustless Roadbed
company against the city of Redlands,
f. C. Finkel, chief engineer of the Edi-
son Electric, was on the witness stand
as an expert witness for the city of
Redlands all day yesterday.
He was examined by attorneys for
the Roadbed company as to properties
of mineral oils containing asphaltum
and those having a base of paraffine.
1t was brought out in his testimony
that any oil whatever can be used for
road making from olive oil to petro-
leum. But, that only oils having an
asphalt base will make a permanent
roadbed.
The city of Redlands still has about
fifteen witnesses to introduce and it is
not probable that the case will be con-
cluded until some time next week.

The Lidgerwood Broadaxe gives
Commissioners Ladd the following

The Lidgerwood Broadaxe gives
Commissioner Ladd the following
praise:-
"Pure Food Commissioner Ladd
wants an increase in his appropri-
alton from 81, SOC. to $500. He
has done wonders and achieved a
great measure of security in food
on the small appropriation and has
the right to come forward and ask
for an increase on the basis of work
accomplished. He has cleared out
our foods, not only of poisons, but
of unhealthy and villainous adul-
terations and should be supplied
with funds to continue the work.
The $500 will not go to pay his
salary or go into his pocket, as we
understand it, but will be used to
continue and prosecute researches
as the nature of the food sold to
the people, but even if he got the
whole amount as salary, it would
be none too large. Many a stick
draws a better salary than that and
gets neither good for himself or
does it for his country"
