PASADENA, April GA larger at
tendance graced the second day OF
Pasadena's first annual flower show
because Of the better weather which
prevailed outside.
Within the hall there were many new
exhibits and a wonderful accession of
cut flowers brought from prominent
local gardens, not for competition but
for simple display Among them were
ten dozen roses and six dozen carna-
tions sent with the compliments of
Walter Raymond of the Hotel Ray
mond. The judges were kept busy to-
day placing the ribbons and passing
IN careful review the over five hun
dred different entries.
Among the novelties on exhibition
were some fine specimens of the Trans
vaal daisy, deep red flower as large
as the Shasta daisy in it's medium
growth, contributed by Secretary D.
w. Coolidge of the board of trade
number of Japanese dwarf trees.
During the day the Pasadena or
chestra furnished music. The show
continues over tomorrow and if the
weather continues favorable will then
see its largest attendance. The man

the interest being taken both by eX-
Cattern Is Elected
Todays school election in South
Pasadena did not bring out as large
a vote as was expected, the total fall
ing short just eighty votes as COM
pared with the vote at the election on
school bonds less than two weeks ago.
Frank A. Cattern was elected to the
vacant place on the school board by
a vote of Ill, his opponent, Jacob H.
Freeman, receiving but Il. The curious
feat that the vote for Freeman stands
at exactly the same figure as did the
vote against the bond issue is taken
by some to show that this is the
exact strength of the faction which
has been standing in the way of what
is believed to be progress in school
matters.
Cattern is a local attorney and was
for many years principal of an eastern
school. He has been one of the
strongest supporters of the school bond
ISSUE while his opponent has been con-
sidered a leader against them, so that
today's fight was in effect another
battle between the two old factions
which have kept both school and mu-
nicipal politics at white heat for some
time.
The newly elected trustee takes up
the duties of his office on July 1 and
with the two hold-over members will
have the expenditure of the $685.
voted by the electors of the district
for new high school building.
An Expensive Hat
Judge C. ]. Willett. attorney for F.
E. Twombley of this city, will move for
a new trial in the now famous Panama
hat case in which Twombley is de-
fendant and Theophile Colville, a news
ic n1o int Iof
in this case is made because of a de-
cision of the superior court reversing
the verdict of the lower court and Civ
ing judgment in favor of the plaintiff.
The case concerns a fifteen dollar
Panama hat which ColvilIe left with
Twombley to have cleaned. The hat
which he received back from Twombley
Colville refused to accept as his 1t
apeared to be as good a hat and to
the ordinary person looked as if it
were the same hat, but the newspaper
man insisted that it did not feel the
same on his head and certainly was
not his hat.
He sued Twombley for fifteen dol
lars. Police Judge Congdon decided
for TwOmbley and the case was APP
pealed. Now the other party has a
verdict. The dispute has already cost
several hundred dollars, but this does
not deter the newspaper man and the
halter from insisting on what each OF
them believe is justice.
Arrest Mountain Hobo
Justice Klamroth today sent Fred
Zubey to Jail in default of $1,000 bond;
for his appearance and trial tomorrow
on the charge of breaking into and rob
bing the camps of the United States
forest rangers in the mountains.
Zubey is a Frenchman and typica
mountain tramp and his years of soil.
tary wanderings along the mountain
trails have almost reduced him tc
savagery. Ranger Sewer captured the
man last evening and with Chief
Ranger Grow made the complaint to-
day which may send the man to prison
for a term of years. For some months
the rangers have been missing articles
of clothing and food from their cabins
Usually the thief had entered through
a window, but often a lock was broker
and the cabin showed signs of oc-
cupancy. Traps were laid for the thiet
but they were avoided with the cunning
of an animal and it was not until yes
terday that the trail became warm
enough to bring about the capture.
Since the national government takes
particular cognizance of cases where
property belonging to United States
rangers is concerned, zubey is likely
to suffer severe penalty for his crime
Saved by Electric Car
The unexpected approach of al
electric car saved T. E. Taylor from be-
ing obliged to part with a roll of bill:
amounting to about $500 at late houl
last night. Taylor is employed at the
Lucky" Baldwin ranch and on his
way home stopped into an Arcadia sa
loon for something to keep out the
wet. While in the saloon he man,
aged to display a considerable sum Of
money. An hour later, as he was near
ing his destination and was about tc
cross the line of the Pacific Electric
railway, a man with a gun touched
him for the wealth. Taylor was very
10th to part with it and hastily look.
ing about for help, noticed an ap.
preaching electric car. With consider.
able presence of mind he moved into
