OCEAN PARK. Feb. 14.-Under the
supervision of Marshal Slack a round
of the various booths on the Venice
Midway will be begun tomorrow morn
ing, when each of the proprietors will
be given an option of paying the city
license tax or submitting to arrest. The
question, if there be any, has been
hanging fire for several weeks, the
Abbot Kinney company backing Gas
ton Arkoun, the Midway concessioner,
in his claim that one license covers the
Midway in its entirety.
At a meeting of the board of citv
trustees recently the matter was dis
cussed at length, but no positiev action
was ordered and difference of opinion
on the subject resulted in friction of a
nature that the members have since
fought shy of duplicating.
With view to building a plant to
furnish such electric energy as is
needed at Venice, Harry Jones, an
electrical expert who was in charge of
the lighting at the Portland, Buffalo
and st. Louis expositions, has been
engaged by the Abbot Kinney company
and will investigate as to the prac-
ticability of such plan. If the scheme
carries number of electrical amuse-
ments, Including a color fountain and
tower. will be installed. Mr.. Jones ar
rived from New York several days ago
and will take up his duties inme-
ditaely.
An $4,000 brick building is to be
erected on the site of the old Blue
Front block, which was among the first
structures to be erected on Pier ave-
nue.. Work on the new building will
be begun at once.

Man

After a desperate struggle M. Sill
cial street, overpowered Juan Herrarra
and took from him ten watches that he
claims the Mexican stole yesterday
afternoon.
From the rear of the store Silver
stein says he watched Herrarra rifle
the case and when the proper moment
presented itself the proprietor rushed
tor the thief.
Still holding tightly to his prisoner,
Silverstein called for the police. De-
tectiyes Dixon and Talamantes were
soon on the scene, and after investigat-
ing the case sent Herrarra to the city
Jail.
From the police it was learned that
Silverstein reported to them that Her.
rarra entered the store early In the
afternoon. After passing few words,
the Mexican made q small purchase.
In his ingenious way Herrarra lured
Silverstein to the rear OF the store
under the pretense that he wanted to
mail the package.
Not satisfied with the wrapping
paper that Silverstein had given him
he requested the proprietor to go to
the rear of the store and secure heavier
paper. For several reasons Silverstein
hesitated for a moment and then he
suddenly thought of the idea OF catch
ing a thief.
The proprietor walked into the back
room and partially closed the door.
Once out Of the front room Silverstein
says he watched Herrarra. The pro-
prietor claims he saw the Mexican
open the case and take several articles,
He waited until Herrarra ceased to
fill his pockets and began to move to
ward the door.
With a rush Silverstein made for
Herrarra and grappled with him. The
proprietor OF the pawn shop claims to
have fought with Herrarra until he

WAR IS DECLARED
BY COUNTY At TORNEY

Today the County Attorney opened
campaign against the liquor dealers
in town who have violated the ordin-
ance against selling liquor to habitual
drunkards and also against the sale
of adulterated liquor.
The law defines a habtual drunkard
as one who has been convicted twice
of being drunk.
For some time the Chinese and other
liquor dealers in the Palama district
have been selling vile liquor according
to the advices received by the County
Attorney and now he has started a
strong crusade against the evil.
The rounding up of those persons be-
gan this morning under the direction
of County Detective Harry 7. Lake. 1t
is thought that by this afternoon two
score arrests will have been made.
Mr.. Douthitt, the Couty Atntorney
