LONG BEACH, Nov. 7.-Evangelist
e. J. Bulgin has acceded to the request
of Mayor f. II. Downs that he sign q
formal complaint against the proprie-
tor of the Mission Smoke House, whom
he charged with conducting a gamb-
ling "joint" at one period in his sermon
last night.
Previously the preacher had conduct
ed a party of citizens to the Smoke
House and had pointed out a group of
young men playing a game of cards
with poker chips in evidence. He
charged r.. A. Levereau, the proprietor
openly from his pulpit, and also ac-
cused prominent city officials with neg
Letting their duties.
AS he talked Bulgin stated that he
had convincing evidence and all neces-
sary proof against Levereau.
City Marshal Young expressed a will
lingness to arrest Levereau IL Bulgin
would swear to a complaint but de-
clared that he has no evidence against
the man.
A conference between Mayor Downs
and Mr.. Bulgin resulted in the latter
communicating with Recorder Hart,
requesting him to draw up the form,
after which he would sign 1t.
The judge complied, and as a result
Levereau will probably be arrested,
and 1t will be up to the evangelist to
prosecute him, with the assistance of

PASADENA, Nov. 7.-Councilman T.
j. Ashby of the First ward rendered
his resignation today, at it was pre-
dicted in The Herald he would, and
Charles H. Towle was named in his

adopted resolution expressing regret
at the necessity for his dropping out.

WON'T HAVE TO PAY GAS BILL
Tacoma Millionaire Fights Success
fully Suit Brought Against Him
for the Sum of $3.50
Special to The Herald.

TACOMA, WASH, Nov. 7.-Henry
Hewitt millionaire lumberman, and re-
puted to be one of the few wealthy men
in the northwest, and who by common
report is the richest man in Tacoma
has just fought through to a successful
issue a suit brought against him by
the Tacoma Gaslight company for the
sum of $3.50.
The whole suit hinged on whether Mr.
Hewitt had used the gas for which he
was charged, He declared that he or
dered the meter out of his home last
February, testifying that the gas bills
were getting higher and higher until
they finally reached $50 a month. Then
he thought If he continued to use gas
he had better make 1t himself and save
money. Nevertheless the company re-
fused to take the meter out, but con-
tinued to charge up bills notwithstand-
ing that no gas was being used he hav-
ing ordered a domestic boycott of the
light company. Attorney McLane and
Mr. Hewitt had several Wordy encoun-
ters, the lawyer trying in every way to
get Mr.. Hewitt to admit that he used
the gas. Then came the question of
whether meter would register a con-
sumption when the gas was not being
used. The gas experts. present as wit
nesses for both sides, learnedly differed
and gave their reasons, the Hewitt ex-
perts declaring that meters frequently
went on tangents and got crazy spells,
while the gas company's experts
brought evidence to show that a gas
meter was as infallible in its opera
tions as the planets in their courses.
The attorneys for the company freely
accused Mr.. Hewitt of taking advan-
tage of his wealth and position to beat
a petty and legitimate bill, and brought
witnesses to prove that he had made
nlsstatements. He gave these the lie
point blank and the court had hard
work to maintain order. After being
out some time the six jurymen brought
in verdict for Mr.. Hewitt.

GERMANS WANT CHEWING GUM
They Crave the Yankee Article-Aus-
traIia Hankers for United
States Windmills
Special to The Herald.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.-Spellbind-
ers labor leaders, auctioneers and some
few manufacturers will swell with
nride TO learn that in Western Austria
lila the American windmill is regarded
as the best in the world. On thou
sand hills in that far away country
our windmills rear their lofty fronts
water may be coaxed from the depths
of the earth for the refreshment of
thirsty herds. 1t is dry, rough land,
where springs are none and streams
are few, and cattle and sheep will die
by droves and focks If the clank of the
pump does not sound it's note in un-
broken monotony for days and weeks
and months at a stretch.
Hence the mill that drives the pump
must not be faltering windmill but
must be ever true to it's task as the
weary time rolls on. The American
windmill has built up a reputation for
always being there with the goods,
otherwise the water, and the conse-
quence is that the cattle kings of West
ern Australia will have them even if
they cost 20 per cent more than any
other. The United States consuls there
report that the Australian manufac-
turers have tried repeatedly to dupli-
cate the Yankee article, but have never
yet turned out a mill which will COM

own the cattle which must have the
water that the mills have to pump.
An unusual request has come to the
department of commerce from Ger
many, showing how the whole world is
gradually becoming Americanized. The
request is from firm which wants to
be put in touch with some manufacture
er of chewing gum with a view to i'm
porting the same-that is, the gum
for sale to natives and tourists. 1t ap-
pears from what the German inquiry
says that the United States is the only
country in the world where such an ar
ticle as chewing gum is made, and that
American tourists have introduced it
into Germany and caused the Germans
themselves to set aside their stems long
enough to try it. The result has been
that they now relish and crave 1t, and it
may be that a great temperance move
ment will thereby be inaugurated i'm
the Fatherland. Certainly the jaws
which are champing gum cannot drink
beer at the same time.

DEMOCRATS MAKE INR0ADS
Pasadena Returns Fall Far Below the
Average at the State Election
Held Two Years Ago

Special to The Herald.
PASADENA, Nov. 7.-While Pasa-
dena has gone safely Republican, save
in the case of Hahn. the plurality of
Gillett is only 952, whereas he should
have carried the city by about 1900 to
keep up with the Republican record of
two years ago.
Calvin Hartwell ran behind his ticket
even in his home town. much to the
surprise of the wise ones, while Hahn
was absolutely defeated on even terms
by the Hon. Charles w. Bell, the Dem
ocratic and non-partisan nominee for
state senator from the Thirty-sixth
district. Hahn gets just 959 votes in the
entire city, whereas Gillet got 1852. Mr..
Bell received 800 and his friends are
greatly rejoiced at his splendid sohw--
ing.
From the day the Dear Walter" let
ters were made public by The Herald
Hahn's chances were below zero. Bell
was favored from then ON in the bet
ting and the result shows that the bet
ters knew what they were about
McLachlan leads the ticket with a

In Its Frenzy

Special to The Herald
LONG BEAC.t, Nov. IA splendid
black horse belonging to Small Bros.
