DAUGHTERS ACT
PROMPTS SUICIDE.
FATHER OF YOUNG GIRL TAKES
LAUDANUM
George klotz Swallows Poison When
Told He Lacks the Nerve
to Garry Out the
Threat

Tainted to carry out the threat to
end his life, George I<lotZ, an employe
of the Los Angeles street department,
swallowed two ounces Of laudanum at
his home, 1854 North Main street, yes
terday afternoon at 6:1O o'clock. The
sequel of the attempt at suicide is that
Miss Georgia, the 15-year-old daughter
of Klotz, declared she would marry
Barnard Smith.
When Klotz returned home from his
labors yesterday afternoon he found
his daughter was not at home. She re-
turned shortly and the discussion of
Smith began. xlotz threatened to kill
himself.
"Why don't you," sneered the daugh-
ter 81 don't believe you have the nerve
TO kill yourself. Why it's all four
flush on your part" she continued.
With that she left the room, she says,
and did not return for some minutes.
While she was engaged at work in the
yard at the rear of their home a vague
fear overcame the girl.
AS Georgia rushed to her fathers
chamber a low moaning caught her ear.
once within the door she saw before
her the limp form on the bed, and out
of the pallid features stared reproach-
fully the CLASSY eyes. In one hand was
clutched an ounce bottle that had con-
tanned laudanum and a similar phial
was on the floor near the bed.
For moment the girl was almost
frantic, as the remorse of a loving
daughter filled her heart. The next in
slant she realized the full extent of her
fathers peril.
Madly she rushed into the street
screaming for help. Patrolman Dan
Long was not far away and ran to the
girl. In broken phrases she told the
officer the story An ambulance was
called, in which Klotz was removed to
the receiving hospital.
Police Surgeons Quint and Bonynge
attended the man and within a short
time had relieved his system of the
poison.
In broken sentences Klotz told his
story. He said that he had remon-
strated with his daughter for the past
six months against keeping company"
with Smith. He said he feared the girl
would be thrown into bad company and
get to drinking.
once before, the old man said, he had
prepared to take his life with a knife,
but had been dissuaded. Recently, how
ever, the family relations had been be-
coming more and more strained. When
his daughter declared her intention of
marrying. Smith the firm resolve to sui
eide overcame him.
| Klotz is a widower and has cared for
his two children for the vast few years.
He has been in rather feeble health. 1t
was the fear that his older daughter,
Georgia, would marry a man unworthy
of her that prompted him to the action
according to his statement.
Klotz' condition is serious. He was
closely watched by the doctors last
evening, but they were unable to tell
what the result of the poison would be-
He gave his age as 81 years.

scene of a beautifully appointed dane

entertained a large company of guests.
Seldom during the season has the
club house been so elaborately deco
rated as for this affair, and under the
direction of Miss Waite blossoms. ferns
and gay-colored lanterns were used in
abundance.
In the auditorium where the COM
pany danced to the strains of the music
of Arend's orchestra, the entire room
was canopied with festoons of Japan
ese paper. japanese lanterns shading
electric lights, hanging baskets OF
ferns and small Japanese umbrellas. A
large Japanese umbrella occupied the
center and from this to the smaller UNI
brellas and fern baskets which were
dropped from the ceiling in rows, the
fe5toonS of paper were gracefully
looped. Japanese banners representing
scenes of Japanese life formed a frieze
around the walls and above this were
festoons of smilax. The reception hall
was beautiful with fruit blossoms and
ferns. The blossoms, which were ar
ranged in bamboo vases, almost hid
the walls and bamboo in large japanese
jars still further added to the general
effect. The hall was canopied with as
paragus plumosus and balls of spren-
gerii depended from the ceiling beams.

included Mines. j. Ross Clark, Will

broad mantel was banked with pink
fruit blossoms against a mass OF oam-
boo and it was in front of this charm
ing background that the handsomely
gowned assistants stood.
Yellow and green was the color
scheme in the other parlors, where
quantities of yellow acacia was COM
bined with ferns and bamboo. The
doorways of these rooms were framed
in smilaX and the same greenery was
festooned over the walls, while lights
were shaded in yellow and pink Jap
anese lanterns.
Late in the evening supper was
served above stairs, where the rooms
were canopied with fish net, into the
meshes of which smilax had been
woven. Japanese wall baskets Of pink
stocks decided the color tone and the
centerpiece for each of the small ta-
bles was of the same delicately col
ored blossom combined with white iris.

present in becoming gowns, and. there
was a corresponding number of hus-
bands and young bachelors to repre-
sent the smart set.

BARGAINS IN
MEDICINE.

A woman once wrote us
that she was not going to
buy SCOTS Emulsion any
more because it cost too
much. Said she could get
some other emulsion for less
money. 4 Penny wise and
pound foolish. Scott's Emul-
sion costs more because it is
worth MOTE costs more to
make. We could make
SCOTS Emulsion cost less by
using less oil. Could take
less care in making it, too.
If we did, however, SCOTS
Emulsion wouldn't be the
standard preparation of cod
liver oil as it is to-day.

tendency to reduce the amount of alco-
