GARBAGE CANS
ARE NEGLECTED
BAD 0D0RS CAUSE LOUD
PROTEST
West Seventh Street Residents say
Collectors and JanItor Leave
Filthy Cans on Street
Over Week

Complaints that six large garbage
cans heavily laden have been standing
in front of the Brainerd flats, located
at 1911 to 1917 West Seventh street.
for two weeks or more, have reached
Prosecuting Attorney Guy Eddies
office.
The cans are said to have been over
sized. The janitor of the Brainerd fats
neglected to remove them from the
premises of the flats until they became
exceedingly heavy. Later the garbage
hauler refused to handle them on ac-
count of their weight and size.
The odors that arose from these six
tire neighborhood. The illness Of one
resident has been attributed to the
presence of the garbage cans
The only explanation the garbage
contractor has to make is that the bar :
rels in which the garbage has been
placed were larger than the size spect-
fled in the original garbage contract.
Neighbors say that the janitor who
was in charge of the Brainerd flats,
who should have looked after the gar
bage cans, neglected his duties, and
WneIl I0ey CetdI1o cXceDLlOndlly 0edNy
carried the cans out in front Of the
residence of Mrs. Dana Rockwell al
1881 West Seventh street, which adjoins
the flats. There the cans are said to
have stood for nearly two weeks. the
janitor in the meantime continued
stuffing the overfiowing cans.
Says Contract Is Defective
While these six cans stood in front
of the flats and the Rockwell residence,
Mrs. Rockwell says she was too i'll to
make any complaint, so she was
obliged to tolerate the conditions,
which probably helped to keep her i'll,
until she could notify the health de-
partment.
Prosecuting Attorney Eddie stated
yesterday that the garbage contract
was in such loose and defective con-
dition that a revision of it was imme-
diately needed.
"The present condition of the gar
bage contract is most deplorable." said
Attorney Eddie. ''The contract calls
for the removal of garbage in cans
only up to a certain size by the con-
| tractor, and the contractor is pretty
| sure to take advantage Of this fact
whenever he can. The contract needs
| revision and should be attended to al

Since then. those who have become

Miss Bessie Dlbble Marrles Prominent
Business Man Of chlcago-M-
fair Is elimination Of
Masonic Romance

Miss Bessie r. Dibbe of Gil Towne
avenue, this city and Ralph b. Wilson,
a well-known business man of Chicago,
we're married yesterday afternoon by
Rev. Williamson of Burlington, Iowa.
Miss Dibble and Mr.. Wilson were TO
have been married In Monmouth, ILL.,,
but owing to the fact that Mr.. Wilson
had been divorced from n former wife
only three months before his wedding
with Miss Dibble was to occur the laws
OF Illinois would not permit the couple
to be married in that state until n
year after the divorce had been
granted.
TO evade this unkind restriction, Mr..
Wilson and his fancee went across the
Mississippi river to Burlington and
were there made man and wife
Miss Dibbe left Los Angeles last
Saturday night over the Salt Lake
route and arrived at Monmouth, the
home of the groom's aunt, Mrs. j. S.
Young, yesterday morning.
The intention was to have the cere-
mony performed at Monmouth, but
when the groom learned that it was
necessary to remain single for a year
in Illinois after securing a divorce in
order to marry in that state, the Cor
dian knot was cut with true Chicago
promptitude.
Romance Began Here
Mrs. Wilson and her husband met in
Los Angeles two years ago, when the
knights Templar were in conclave in
San Francisco. Miss Dibble was on
reception committee which had been
delegated by the local knights to en-
tertain their visiting brethren.
Since their first meeting Mr.. Wilson
has come to Los Angeles twice and
visited his fiancee at the family resi-
dence at Gil Towne avenue.
Mr.. Wilson has been divorced twice.
The last woman from whom he was
separated was formerly Miss Edna
Jacobson of Chicago. He is the presi-
dent of the Chicago Shipping and Re-
ceipt Book company, which has head
offices in Chicago. Owing to pro-
longed and bitter strike in the factory
of the concern in which Mr.. Wilson is
interested, he could not come to Cali
fornia to claim his fair bride, but sent
for her to meet him at Monmouth Ill.
The father of the bride was until
his death two years ago one of the
prominent business men of Los Angeles
and the bride is well connected in this
city. Her sister is the wife of Judge
George M. Holton, who was the first
Republican to be elected to the position

LANDLORD SHOT
OVER Gas BILL
PETTY QUARREL HAS SERIOUS
ENDING
Bullets Fly Fast in Mercantile Place
and Victim ls Taken to Hos
pltal Where He Refuses to
Submit to Operation

As result of injuries received yes
terday in shooting array with j. II.
Meenock over the settlement of gas
bill, G.. IL. Gwartney, real estate man
of Mercantile place. is at his home on
West Seventh street suffering from a
shot wound i'm his forehead and a
ragged wound in his right hand from
which blood poisoning may develop.
Immediately following the shooting
yesterday Gwartney was hurried to
the receiving hospital where an exam
inatlon was made of his injuries. One
bullet had entered his forehead just
over the right eye. The force of the
bullet had been broken by the heavy
glass through which it was fred and
when 1t struck the occipital-frontalis
bone it flattened, causing only pain
full flesh wound.
The injury to Gwartney's right hand,
however, is considered serious. The bull
let struck the two middle fingers, tear
inc them to pieces and crushing the
bones. In spite of the surgeons ad-
vice, Gwartney refused to allow the
fingers to be amputated and the physi :
clans fear that complications may re-
suit.
According to the statements of both
men the row and shooting was over
a gas bill. For several weeks past
Meenock had been boarder at the
Gwartney home. He had a small
office there, and according to Mrs.
Gwartneys statements Meenock in
sisted on using the gas in the room
for heating purposes in his office DUR
ing the day.
He is alleged to have refused to pay
anything additional for the gas, and
yesterday Mrs. Gwartney had the gas
shut off from the room during the day.
Meenock is alleged to have objected
and a row ensued, and Meenock left
the house declaring he would settle
with Gwartney. Mrs. Gwartney sent
her son to warn his father and the lad
arrived there just as Meenock entered
the real estate office on Mercantile
place.
Five Shots Fired
From statements of those in the office
ct the time, not half dozen words
were exchanged between the two men
when Meenock drew his revolver and
fired three shots at Gwartney. Then
Meenock backed through the door and
fired another shot, which struck Gwart-
ney in the hand. The last shot went
through the window glass and struck
Gwartney in the forehead.
