On the top floor of the county Jail
yesterday w. C. =. U. women sang
with shrill sincerity songs of home
and mother to the prisoners assembled,
while on the bottom floor group of
chattering, gesticulating Chinese played
with great fervor an innocuous imita.
ton of their national game, fan-fan.
From the eyes of many of the pris-
oners who were besought to make
new start tears fell and some of them
seemed to be genuinely impressed by
the songs and prayers of the women.
The Chinese, however, could only
be impressed with a zap on the head
with a cleaver, and when the women
came to sing to them they only grunted
and proceeded with their game. white

When one of the women knelt to
pray for the poor benighted heather

by the Chinese, and one of them said:
"Mabbe lady sick. Why for she no

Value of Butterflies

terflies, or even the superb Monarch
and gorgeous Ajax swallowtais. fit
ting through the fields or at times city
streets they perhaps never give thought
to the fact that butterflies may be of
commercial value. But such is the
case. Some of our domestic butterflies,
on account of rarity, more than beauty
command prices from one to several
dollars, which collectors gladly pay to
insure the completeness of their cab
inets. Big prices are paid for some Of
the magnificent butterflies of the
Morpho and Papilio genera, which are
rainbow hued In colors and span five
feet I'm wings. These flourish IN tropi-

sary for museums to send out special
expeditions for them. They range

PASADENA, Dec. 17.-The sight of
a bareheaded man with a brick in one
hand and uttering wild screams as he
ran caused much excitement this noon
on East Colorado street and caused
church going PEDESTRIANS to flee to the
neighboring houses to avoid meeting
the man face to face. Whenever the
wild-eyed man met a person he threat
ened all kinds of bodily violence. The
police were telephoned for and Officers
Longley and Coping hastened to the
corner of Lake avenue, and after
lively struggle gathered the man in and
landed him in the city lookup. He
was undoubtedly crazy and had TO be
watched constantly to prevent his in
iuring himself or others. His name is
believed to be Frank Phelan, but his
residence could not be learned. He was
removed to the county hospital this
afternoon and when he was gone the
local police breathed easier.
Final Decision Tomorrow
Tomorrow forenoon the city commits
sioners will finally pass upon the ques-
ton of Sunday afternoon band concerts
This has been field day for those who
oppose the concerts and the matter has
been brought up in several churches
and petitions offered for signature. Two
petitions will be presented to the COM
missioners by the church element to-
morrow morning one signed by voters
exclusively and one signed by the
women of the city II is expected that
the great mass of men and women
represented on these two petitions will
convince the commissioners that the
concerts are not wanted by a majority
of our people. on the other hand those
who favor the concerts have not been
particularly busy during the week, firm
In the belief that the names on their
previous petitions and the character of
the signers will assure them Victory.
Tonight II is freely asserted that the
question is already settled and that
the petitions are merely a matter of
form. All Of the commissioners except
Commissioner Windham are expected
to vote in favor Of the concerts. II

Burro's Peculiar Accident

During the past week most of the
burroS belonging to the Mt. Wilson
company have been busy at Echo
mountain helping carry tools and ma
terial from the end of the street car
line to the summit of the mountain. 1t
has been a quiet week on Mt. Wilson
except at the summit, where every eff
fort is being put forward to get the
new hotel ready for Christmas, week
hence. Then the burros will be needed
again to carry the Christmas crowd to
the usual old-time celebration at the
peak. The laborers on Echo mountain
enjoyed some novel experiences during
the week in loading the burros, pro-
cess which has grown to be science.
For while the men insisted on put
ting the lighter part of the load near
est the patient little animals back and
the heaviest on top with the result that
wheelbarroWs and heavy bundles were
scattered all along the trail. At one
time burro toppled off the narrow
trail and rolled several hundred feet
down the mountain, landing with his
heels in the air and his body comfort
ably resting in a wheelbarrow. Here
he remained for five or six hours until
forest ranger came to the rescue and
worked his way down to the relief of
the burro, who was not in the least
injured. He had lodged in a place on
the slope which was almost out Of
reach and the day laborers did not
know how to get to him.
