DYNAMITE BOUTS
SALOON PATRONS
CUSTOMER THROWS A STICK ON
THE COUNTER
Patrolman Pautz, at Peril Of His Life,
Carries Dangerous Explosive
to Police Statlon--Falls
to Yield Drink

Two sticks of dynamite deposited on
the bar of an East First street saloon
last night almost precipitated a riot
and led to a hurried call upon the police
station for assistance.
Policeman Pautz at once was sent to
the rescue of the terrified bartender.
When he arrived at the saloon he took
the explosive, placed it carefully III u
cigar box and started back for the
station.
When he reached there, he mopped
the perspiration from his forehead
and with a sigh of relief turned the
box over to Desk Sergeant Harris.
There was enough dynamite in the
box to wreck the entire police station
and Harris treated IL with Difference
due so powerful an explosive.
Then Pautz departed on a search. for
the man foolhardy enough to carry
such a package through the city streets.
- Customer Arrives
1t was about nine o'clock when a
typical bum entered the saloon at
f12 East First street and demanded
drink. He was asked for the price
and at once proceeded to search him
self, but the only thing he could find
was the dy2amite--two sticks of it,
each about seven inches long and as
big around as a mans thumb. These
sticks he placed carefully on the bar,
explaining just what they were, and
then disappeared.
The bartender's hair stood on end.
He looked at the explosive and then he
looked at his patrons, vanishing through
the front door. Finally he took the
dynamite up gingerly, placed it out, of
harms way, and telephoned the police
station for help.
Pautz to the Rescue
Soon afterwards Pautz arrived on
the scene. The difficulty was explained
to him and he was asked to remove
the anarchists friend to some place
of safety. AT first he demurred, but
there didn't seem to be any way out
Of 1t and at last he consented.
With the tenderness of a mother car
ing for her first born, the big patrolman
carefully deposited the explosive in a
cigar box and taking the box firmly In
both hands, started on his walk to
the station.
He didn't dare to board car for fear
of accident and every time a pedes-
trian came within five feet of him he
shuddered at the thought of what q
careless joStle might mean.
Knowing that his life depended OH
it he hung on to that box tighter than
the late Russell Sage every clung to a
five cent piece; and he walked as
though his feet hurt him.
Each block traversed was an achieve
ment: each street crossed, another dan-
ger left behind. Finally the station
was gained and Pautz deposited his
unwelcome burden with the desk SER
geant.
According to the clock it had taken
him tWenty-seven minutes to make the
trip. He, himself declared it had been
three hours and a quarter.
The dynamite now is reposing on a
shelf in the central station and will
be turned over to the chain gang for
possible use in their work.
Where it came from originally no one
except the bum" knows, and the
bum" has disappeared. 1t may have
been part of burglars kit, or it may
have come from some grading camp.
Its origin is a. mystery.

Special to The Herald.
LONG BEACH. Aug. 31.-Fred Bald
win, city clerk, and r. II. Jackson
searched all day yesterday In the court
house at Los Angeles for the original
petition of East san Pedro and Ter
minal island and the petition of
twenty-five per cent of the qualified
voters of Long Beach asking the coun-
Gil to call an annexation election.
The document could not be found
and according to the city officials the
indications are that II has been stolen
in the belief that its absence may i'm
validate this city's jurisdiction over
the east side of the bay
At the time when San Pedro con-
tested the election. all the papers filed
and the minutes of the city clerk were
submitted in evidence, as Is shown
by the records of Judge Bordwell's
court.
Recently West Long Beach merchants
refused to pay for business licenses,
and when they had been arrested,
Henry Steiglitz, the city clerk of San
Pedro, offered to defend them. He made
a demand upon City Clerk Baldwin for
the petition heretofore mentioned.
A day later, the San Pedro city clerk
stirred up the city council there when
he told them that the annexation of
West Long Beach was illegal and that
there was no copy of the petition on
record.
Money was Forthcoming soon after
ward to pay for certified copies of the
petition If City Clerk Baldwin could
find the document. The search proved
futile.
All the papers in the case were found
save the two petitions mentioned.
Lawyers here think that since the
document was in the hands of the
court and matter of record, it is thus
identified.
This morning the city clerk made
certified copies of the minutes showing
the preliminaries of the council in the
annexation election and also the reso-
luton declaring the result Of the elec-
tion and forwarded them to the San
Pedro clerk.

DELAY CHANGE
ON MAIN LINE
PASADENA OFFICIALS HAVE
NEW ORDERS
FOR Some Reason the Promised Time
Schedule Through South Pasa-
dena Is indefinitely
Postponed
Pasadena Agency,
16b East Colorado Street.
Telephone Main 752-


PASADENA. Aug. 3t.--Orders have
been issued canceling the proposed
new time schedule on the Pacific Elec-
trio which was to 60 into effect to-
morrow. September 1.
1t has been announced from head
quarters that a twenty-minute service
between Altadena and the ostrich farm
with convenient transfer arrangements
to Los Angeles cars. together with other
greatly desired changes over the main
line, would come with the opening day
OF the month.
Superintendent Rowray gave the
welcome news to the public and all
needed preparations for the change
were made. But peremptory orders
reached the superintendent yesterday
postponing the change indefinitely for
some unexplained reason.
The new schedule was not all that
could be desired by some; in fact, it
appeared to many merely a makeshift
and not likely to be permanent.
What 1t furnished in the matter of
through Altadena, Pasadena, South
Pasadena and ostrich farm service 1t
lacked In through Los Angeles service.
The change came no doubt as the re-
suit of constant requests for better
service and as such was pleasing to
the patrons of the road.
Makes Removals Necessary
AS related in The Herald few days
q go the change of schedule announced
carried with It the transfer of the
South Pasadena or main line service
to Los Angeles, forcing conductors and
r1otormen on this line to make their
homes in the Angel city instead of in
Pasadena as at present. This caused
considerable dissatisfaction among the
ennDlOyes of the road
j. e. Carson, city attorney for South
Pasadena, reported to the city trustees
a. few days ago that the Pacific Elec-
Uric people were cont emplating changes
FIN the car service over the main line
which passes through South Pasadena
which would probably be satisfactory
to all concerned.
He was not informed of the exact
nature of these changes and it is fair
to assume that reference was not made
at that time TO the schedule advertised
TO go into effect September / and now
Indefinitely postponed.
The reason for the latest order rela-
tive to the time schedule cannot be
learned here as the officials reached
prosess entire ignorance of it. They say
that no time was set for. putting the
revised schedule into operation and
that they do not know whether II
Will ever be tried or not.
One thing is certain. however, and
that is that the old time table will be
in use tomorrow and no change will
be made without a previous notice OF
four or FIVE days.
1t is predicted by some that this is
the last that will be heard of the tins
and car schedule as last proposed, and
that when another schedule appears
II will be much nearer what the pa
irons along the main line have beer
petitioning for.
