ROYAL WELCOME
FOR ANGELENOS
SAN DIEGO HAS PROMISED
GOOD TIME
300 Members of Chamber Of Commerce
and Their Wives VIII Make
Trip to Southern City
Saturday

All arrangements have been completed
for the chamber of commences big ex-
curslon to San Diego tomorrow, and 1t
now looks as IL fully 800 members ana
their wives would make the journey.
The proportion of women in the party
will be very large, and the entire affdir
has taken on a gala aspect, not tne
least feature of which is the interest
shown in the affair by San Diego itself.
This is in recognition of the way Los
Angeles treated a party from that city
not long ago. In fact, the San Diegans
have given it out flat that they intend
to show the Angelenos "the time OF
their lives" and the party from here
is accepting the offer, and going pre-
pared to do justice to all that is offered'
The trip will be made over the santa
Fe I'm a special train leaving La Grande
station at S:15 sharp tomorrow morn
ing. The run will be made in fast time,
the entire party arriving in San Diego
for luncheon. The return will be made
In the same fashion, the party reaching
here at 1926 at night, except those who
desire to stay longer, who will come
home on regular trains at their leisure.
AS the trip will be made on Saturday
1t is expected that great many viii
remain over Sunday. coming home
Monday morning.
Good Time Promised
The plans as far as divulged for the
stay in San Diego contemplate lunch
con on arrival, with the usual formal
welcomes and responses; trip by boat
about the harbor and bay, with visits
to Coronado and the forts; a trip over
San Diego in autos and carriages ana
such other diversions as time will per-
NIT, with dinner before leaving. The
minor details are still in embryo, but
this outline will give hint of the good
things in store and show that the San
Diegans are making good in advance on
their part of the contract.
For the trip the Santa Fe promises the
best train that it can get together This
will be stocked with light refreshments
and the run itself will not be the least
desirable and delightful part of the out
ing.
"The idea is" said Secretary Gurley
yesterday, "to show San Diego that we
appreciated its visit here not long ago,
and also to prove our interest In the
southern city. Many there feel that
Los Angeles rather looks down on that
place, and we want to disabuse its
mind of any such idea.
Excursion for Pleasure
"We are in the habit of taking these
trips from time to time, not only to
gladden. our neighbors, but to afford en-
joyment to our own members. Our or
ganization is SO large and is growing
SO rapidly that we feel that such trips
are necessary that our members may
become better acquainted with one an
other and with the aims and objects of
the chamber. In accordance with that
we from time to time plan these little
= s.,rr n,a1 hto fG of fhn los
It's popularity is shown by the fact that
already more have signed for it than
for any previous trip, and the rush has
only fairly begun. We expect fully 3O0
to go, and perhaps more. The train will
be the best, and the fun will be unlim-
tied. The tickets have been placed az

and Franco, the defender OF MS nome
was allowed his freedom.
The Franco case has been a peculiar
one and has been carefully watched
by attorneys of Los Angeles who nave
taken some interest in the accused
man. Franco first had trouble with the
police several months ago when he was
arrested by detectives and lodged IN the
city Jail and charges preferred against
him which could not be sustained.
He made desperate attempts to secure
release, but met with scant consider
alton, so that when he was released he
filed suit against the officers OF the po-
lice department and against the city
for damages, alleging false imprison-
ment
The case was tried in the superior
courts and through the work OF city
attorneys the case was lost and Franco
returned TO his home.
But that was just the beginning Of his
troubles His little cottage near Du-
commun and Vignes streets was des-
tined to act as a fortress, for Franco
had not been home long before he was
again in trouble.

AN INCORRIGIBLE BOY

TOLEDO. Ohio. May 26.-Convinced by
the famous operation on Harold Hurley
some weeks ago that physical conditions

delicate experiment.
The subject Of the present operation is
ten-year-old Joseph Shopf. Little Joe
is incorrigible.

brain OF Harold Hurley and 1t was posi-
lively seen that his character was
transformed from that of a degenerate

the Toledo Medical College for an ex-
animation. This revealed a diseased
condition of the membranes of the head,
which was affecting the brain.
An operation was commenced and al

have been removed. The vicious traits of
character ere slowly leaving the lad,
