MAKES SCENE At
POLICE HEARING
MAYOR WALEER AND LAWYER
DISAGREE
Earl Rogers Grows Angry Because
Commissioners Refuse to POST
pone the Riley Hearine-Ad-
Vises Client to Withdraw

Mayor McAleer and Attorney Earl
Rogers, once the best of friends will
now no more speak as they pass by.
They are real mad at each other.
The breach between these two former
friends was made yesterday morning
and was incident to the trial of Patrol
man NJ. T. Riley before the police COM
mission on a charge of eXtorting money
from women about the town in ex-
change for police protection. Rogers
was attorney for officer Riley. Com
missioner James could not be present
owing to illness and Mr.. Rogers asked
that the case be put over for time,
as he desired a full attendance of the
board and especially the presence of
Mr.. James, who is the only lawyer on
the commission.
Mayor McAleer explained that he ex-
pected to leave the city some time this
week, to be gone probably three or
four weeks. and that under these cir
cumstances it would be necessary to
postpone Riley's case for a month if it
was carried over at all, and added that
he was not disposed to permit this long
continuance.
Police Commissioner Johnson also
suggested mildly that such i long post
ponement would give time to get the
witnesses against Riley out of the city
il such action was deemed necessary
Attorney Rogers took this as a per-
sonal reflection and showed some tenn
per- asking Mr.. Johnson to retract his
suggestion.
The commission finally decided to
hear the case then, in spite of Attorney
Rogers protests, and Rogers retorted
angrily:
Says Justice Impossible
you can go on with this farce of an
investigation if you choose, but 1 will
have nothing to do with it. The COM
mission has been holding a star cham
Der session for an hour and undoubt-
edly made up it's mind what it's verdict
will be in advance of hearing the evi-
dence. I'll withdraw from this case"
Turning to officer Riley the attorney
said. you may as well go. You can't
get justice from this board"
Rogers went into the mayors office
to get his overcoat and when he re-
turned to the commission room the
mayor was waiting for him.
II don't propose to have anyone come
up here and try to bulldose this
board"
He tried to say something more but
Rogers interrupted.
"I am a free American citizen and
can say what 1 please and this is one
thing 1 want to say, 1 have appeared
for you many times. Hereafter you
may get some one else to handle your
legal gusiness."
Rogers has been the mayors attorney
for about two years.
Attorney Wideman, who was asso-
ciated with Mr.. Rogers in the case also
withdrew, but in a less spectacular
manner, declaring that as the senior
attorney had given up the case pro-
fessional ethics compelled him to re-
linquish his part.
Thus Riley was left to face the
charges without counsel.

What Sulphur Does
For the Human Body in Health and
Disease

The mention of sulphur will recall
to many of us the early days when
our mothers and grandmothers gave
us our daily dose of sulphur and
molasses every spring and fall.
1t was the universal spring and fall
"blood purifier" tonic and cure-all,
and, mind you, this old-fashioned rem
edy was not without merit.
The idea was good, but the rem
edy was crude and unpalatable, and a
large quantity had to be taken to get
any effect.
Nowadays we get all the beneficial
effects of sulphur in palatable, con-
centrated form, so that a single grain
is far more effective than a table
spoonful of the crude sulphur.
In recent years research and eX-
pertinent have proven that the best
sulphur for medicinal use is that OBJ
tanned from calcium Calcium sui
phide) and sold in drug stores under
the name of Stuarts Calcium Waters.
They are small chocolate coated pei
let's and contain the active medicinal
principle of sulphur in a highly con-
centrated effective form.
Few people are aware of the value
of this form of sulphur in restoring
and maintaining bodily vigor and
health; sulphur acts directly on the
liver and excretory organs and puri-
fies and enriches the blood by the
prompt elimination of waste material
Our grandmothers knew of this when
they dosed us with sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring and fall but the
crudity and impurity of ordinary
flowers Of sulphur We're often worse
than the disease, and cannot compare
with the modern concentrated prepara-
tions of sulphur, of which Stuart's
Calcium Waters is undoubtedly the
best and most widely used.
They are the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure con-
stipation' and purify the blood in a
way that often surprises patient and
physician alike
DIR. r. M. Wilkins, while experiment.
ing with sulphur remedies, soon found
that the sulphur from calcium was
superior to any other form. He says:
For liver, kidney and blood troubles.
especially when resulting from con-
stipation or malaria, have been sur
prised at the results obtained from
Stuart's Calcium WATERS In patients
suffering from boils and pimples and
even deep-seated carbuncles, 1 have
repeatedly seen them dry up and dis
appear in four or five days, leaving
the skin clear and smooth. Although
Stuarts Calcium Waters is a propri-
etary article and sold by druggists
and for that reason tabooed by many
physicians, yet I know of nothing so
safe and reliable for constitution.
liver and kidney troubles and especial
ly in all forms of skin diseases as
this remedy"
At any rate people who are tired of
pills, cathartics and so-caIled blood
purifiers" will find in Stuarts Calcium
Wa1ers' a far safer, more palatable
and enective preparation. 4-11-1S-25.

THINKS MARTIN is A CROOK
Policeman Walsh Makes What He
Believes to Be an Import
ant Arrest

In the arrest of a man giving the
name of James Martin, Patrolman
Walsh thinks he has landed a profess
sional crook.
Friday night the policeman saw two
men on North Main street lettering
about the entrance to a building. He
followed them and saw the pair had
a ladder. He called on them to halt
and both ran away followed by sew
eral shots from Walshs revolver.
Martin finally stopped and was booked
as suspicious at the police station.
Walsh thinks the men were trying to
effect an entrance into several Spring
street business houses.

Accident

Mrs Agnes Young, who is staying at
433 Crocker street, fears that some ac-
cdent has befallen her brother, Enton

Spring Catarrh,

Almost every one has come to believe
that spring is a season that brings de-
rangements of the body dependent on
blood impurities.
The belief is an old one. is nearly uni

of the teachings of the medical frater-
nifty, but has been learned in the bitter
school of experience,

A short course of Peruna, assisted by
the balmy air of spring, will often re-

have resisted treatment for years.
A Word of Advice.
To those who have been afflicted with
chronic catarrh we wish to say that
the spring season affords you splen-
did opportunity to get rid of your dis
ease
1t may be you have been afflicted for
several years; you may have tried diff

Now Is Your Opportunity.
This failure was during the winter
months. But now is your opportunity.
Nature comes to your assistance at this

Just help her little and she will
bring you out of the quagmire in which
you have been houndering so long.
Give nature a little assistance, lest her
struggles be in vain.

The Correct Remedy.

Peruna meets every indication and
proves itself to be perfectly adapted to
all their varied peculiarities. Peruna
invigorates the system, rejuvenates the
feelings, restores the normal appetite
and procures regular sleep.

Nervous DeDreSSiOn.

Depression of the nervous system at
the approach of spring is a fertile
source of blood impurities.
There are general lassitude. dull,
heavy sensations, continual tired feel
ings, with irregular appetite and some
times loss of sleep.

A Spring Tonic.

Almost everybody needs a tonic in the

invigorate the brain, and cleanse the
blood. That Peruna will do this is be-
yond all question Everyone who has
tried it has had the same experience as
Los Angeles herald., 1906-03-04
Do Not Delay.

Get bottle of Peruna when the first
languid feelings make themselves ap-
parent in the spring. Take it according
to the directions on the bottle. Con-
ttnue this treatment through the first
months of spring.
This course of treatment is no expert
ment. 1t has helped thousands. Why
should it not help you?

A street car collision, due. it is al
legged, to gross carelessness on the part
of a motorman, occurred at Seventh
street and Grand avenue at 10:30
O'Clock yesterday morning. Six of the
occupants Of one of the cars were in
jured. and from the nature of the ac-
cident it seems strange that more per-
sons were not killed or seriously in
jured-
Car No. 260 of the West Seventh
street car line of the Los Angeles
railway was running at fair rate of
speed west on Seventh street. Glen
dale car No. S57 of the Interurban line
was running east on the same street.
At the intersection of Grand avenue
and Seventh street one branch of the
track turns into Grand avenue, while
the other turns to the west.
The motorman of the Seventh street
car did not attempt to check the speed
of his car as he neared the junction
point, but ran on at a speed of about
nine miles an hour.
Switch Was Open

Grand avenue was open, which would
send his car into the Grand avenue
line. But that fact was not noticed by
the motorman-
When the heavy Glendale car was
within a few feet of the lighter yellow
car the wheels of the latter caught
the open switch and shot the body of
the car to the left, running into the
front end of the Glendale car and
smashing the front ends of both the
vehicles.
Flying glass was responsible for
many minor injuries to the passengers
of the Seventh street car, there being
hardly a window left unshattered by
the force of the collision. The larger
car was not damaged to any great ex-
tent. The front was crushed, but few
of the windows were broken.
The nfotorman of the car which

caused the accident was A. NJ. Eaton
and the conductor was C. L. Farrah.

The most seriously injured of the
passengers was G. Z. Rood, a CONNER

dence is at 1912 Orange street. He was
severely bruised around the hips. was
cut by flying glass and was thrown by
the shock against a corner of the car
and his head was severely injured.
Margery Newby, 6 years old, was being
taken for a days visit to the home of
Taylor o. Taylor, who was accom-
panying the little one on the car When
the collision occurred the girl was cut
by flying glass in spite of the efforts of
Mr.. Taylor, whose back was injured
in an attempt to shield the child from
harm.
Walter Irving Taylor of 1241 West
Seventh street also was slightly in
jured and sustained a severe nervous
shock. William Werner of the Hotel
Baltimore was cut by glass and was

face.
Mrs. L. H. Riasker of Hotel West
moore was seriously cut about the head
and face by the flying fragments of
glass and was seriously bruised. Mrs
r. S. Hodgden of Hotel Westmoore
was also cut by glass. The women were
removed to a drug store, where their
injuries were attended to and they were
then taken to the hotel.
Others were more or less seriously
injured, and the general state of mind
among the victims of the collision was
that the motorman of the Seventh
street car was to blame, as the open
switch was plainly visible from the
front part of his car.
