of Senator Nixon, is riding the waves at
the Walker gravel pit. Nagle and fif-
teen of his followers are guarding the
boat, ready to start down to the<place
of gold when the signal is given.
Peterson and Crowley of San Fran

known. will place their boat In the wa

boat is on the railway right of way
Their pull does not seem so strong.
The launch of j. H. Miller of Nina will
go into the water tonight. Miller de-
clares he holds a document giving the
sanction of Agent Larribee to his plac-
ing of the launch on the lake; as a re-
suit there is howl of protest going

have permission to enter the reserva-
tion ahead of the time
The last of the five launches to be
heard from is on the north shore of the
lake. The name of the owner of this
launch has not been made known, but

PREPARES THE AMENDMENT
Pasadena Committee Is Working
Upon Plans for Metropolitan
Water Districts
Special to The Herald.


PASADENA, May 2S.-Considerable
interest is still being shown in the citi-
zens' mass meeting called for tomorrow
evening in Woodmen's hall to discuss
the consolidation issue as raised by the
LOS Angeles chamber of commerce con-
ference on Friday. 1t is stated that a
committee of representative citizens of
Long Beach will attend the meeting to-
morrow evening to make plain If possi-
BILE the at titude of that community with
reference to the Los Angeles PROPOSE
tion.
Long Beach citizens seen by the Pasa-
dena committee Saturday represent that
the beach city will not seriously object
to the amendment with plain provisions
allowing the towns to vote upon the
proposition separately. The comnit-
tee appointed to draft such a consti-
tutional amendment as 1t is expected
will be satisfactory to Pasadenans re-
garding the formation of water dis
tricts will hold final meeting tomor-
row morning for this purpose.
One of the rough drafts of this
amendment already prepared reads as
follows:
Municipal corporations to be known
as metropolitan water districts, for the
purpose of acquiring, storing and using
water, and with power to issue and sell
its bonds to obtain money for it's cor
porate uses, may be formed under gen.
eral laws to be passed by the legislature.
The territory of such metropolitan
water districts may include one or more
Incorporated cities or towns and any
territory within one or more counties,
providing that the territory within
any such district must be contiguous"

WINS HIS TEN-CENT SUIT
Railroad Company Can't Legally
Charge Storage for Packages
Held Over "a Hours
special to The Herald.


MOUNT HOLLY, N. j., May 2S.-A
jury today decided that the Pennsyl-
Vania Railroad company cannot enforce
the payment of storage charges at the
rate of five cents a day on parcels car
ried under its package express system.
when they are not removed by the
owners within twenty-four hourse after
reaching their destination. The de-
cision has resulted in the suit of Goldy
Montgomery Of Pemberton.
The suit was the outcome of a charge
of ten cents for storage made against
Montgomery when he went to the Penn
berton baggage room to get suit of
clothes shipped to him two days before.
Montgomery questioned the right of the
company to enforce such regulation
and he refused to pay, leaving the pack
age. He brought suit. and Justice
White OF Pemberton, decided against
him, but he appealed to the county
court.
The testimony showed that at the
time Montgomery needed clothes badly,
and he was compelled to make another
trip to Philadelphia to have the original
order duplicated. In addition to the
cost of the suit he had expenses Of S1,73.
In his charge to the jury Judge Joline
stated that If the verdict was in favor
of the plaintiff it could not be for more
than $3.50, this amount covering the
cost of the clothes and carfare, and the
jury decided In his favor for that
amount.

SAN BERNARDINO, May 2S.-The
police rounded up gang Of youthful
bicycle thieves and recovered number
of stolen wheels today. For the past
two or three weeks the officers have been
by the large number of bicy-
cles disappearing about the city. No
trace of them could ever be found.
Today negro boy was caught with
one of the missing wheels, and after he
had been put through the sweat box
he confessed that he knew of other
wheels and also implicated number OF
other boys in the job. The boys would
take the wheels to their residences and
take them to pieces, constructing new
wheel from the parts of several differ
ent wheels, thus making them hard 10
detect. Some of the youngsters in the
case will probably go to the reform

WoMAN'S BRAIN NOT FOR JAGs
Strain Too Great---More Women Than
Men Enter Bellevue Psycho-
pathic Ward
Special to The Herald.

NEW YORK, May 2S.-More women
than men are now being admitted to
the psychopathic ward of Bellevue hos
pital By some of the officials this Is
regarded as sign that the drink habit
is on the increase among women.
Liquor seems to influence the brain
of woman more than man. The manias,
the dementias, the acute confessional
affections of the mind which take away
the memory and destroy or pervert
the moral IDEAS all occur far more fire.
quently among the female patients in
the psychopathic ward. For example,
out of 140 subjects of Oppressive mania,
101 were women. OF the 40 who were af-
f1icted with paranoia, ITO were women.
The only patient out of 2241 who had
developed idiocy was a woman.
The old theory that drunkenness and
consumption do not go together, that
where one is the other is not, is borne
out by the experience in the psyche
patbic ward. There were only seventeen
cases of pulmonary tuberculosis among
the 2241 patients, and of these ten were
women.
Another popular idea, namely, that
nearly every drunkard has kidney dis
ease in some form, is disproved by the
psychopathic statistics. Out of the 2241
cases under observation only two
showed diabetes; only six of the pa
tents had heart disease, of which four
were men.
The nerves are the great sufferers
from drink-the nerves and the brain.
And Whereas liquor attacks woman's
brain quicker, 1t seems to exert its
greatest effect in man on the nerves.
Out of 295 psychopathic patients with
general paralysis. 235 were men. Epi-
lepsy is more common among men
drunkards, hysteria among women.
There are more "chronics" among the
men, and more cases of 'jim-jams"
The deadly effect of over-indulgence
in intoxicants on the brain is nailed
tight by the fact that out of 2611 pa
tients who passed through the ward,
there were only twenty-one which pre-
sented no mental disorder; of these
only eight were women.

ELDERLY WOMAN
BREAKS HER ARMS
IS WITHOUT ATTENTION FOR
SIX HOURS
Falls Down Flight Of steps While on
Way to Attend Band Concert
in Auditorium at Long
Beach
specIal to The Herald.

Special TO Inc tteTdlu
LONG BEACH, May 2S.-After fall
ing down a flight of steps and breaking
both her arms, Mrs. Elizabeth Fish, u
years old, sat for six hours without
medical attention last night in her
room in the Cynthia annex, an Ocean
avenue apartment house. Her injuries
also included several bruises and de-
preston in the external table of the
skull.
Mrs. Fish had started to go to the
auditorium to attend the band concert
The flight of stairs down which she
fell Is but a few steps from her room
and in the hallway Of the apartment
house. A young man passing down
Ocean avenue saw her fall, and after
to her room. The elderly woman was
the severity of her injuries and the
young man soon went away, leaving her
sitting in her chair.
It was about o'clock this morning
that J. H. Lucas, who has apartments
in the same building, heard the wo-
mans groans as he was passing
through the hail. accompanied by w.
II. Narrower, night watchman. They
summoned DR.. j. w. Wood, who
dressed the woman's injuries. Today
she was removed to private hospital.
Mrs. Fish came here from Omaha,
Neb, three months ago. Her son, G.
II. Wheelock, lives at $50 Cedar ave-
nue., but she preferred to live near the
auditorium, so that she might enjoy
the band concerts, which 1t has been
her wont to attend every afternoon and
night.

BY Associated Press.

LONG BEACH, May 2S.-Plans for
the furniture factory which c. A.
Adams and others will build in Long
Beach are progressing rapidly, but have
not yet reached the point where Mr..
Adams is able to discuss them in de-
tail. The factory, exclusive of the site,
will cost $25,000. 1t will consist of three
divisions, a sawmill, q veneer cutting
works and furniture factory proper.
Two locations are under consideration
but it has been definitely decided that
the plant will be built along the new
harbor which Is being constructed by
the Dock and Terminal company. The
men backing the proposition say that
because Long Beach will offer the
closest port for the hardwoods which
can be secured along the coast of Mex
leo and Central America, the plant
should prosper. The woods used can
be brought directly to the factory by
an uninterrupted water route. High
grade furniture only will be manu-
featured.

SAN PEDRO. May 2S.-The all-ab-
sorbing topic of conversation on the
streets of San Pedro since the meeting
held in the office of the secretary Of
the chamber of commerce last Satur-
day to talk the affair over is annexa-
tion.
The holding of this meeting seems to
have engendered some ill-feeling, as It
was more in the nature of a private
meeting than otherwise, no notice of
It having been given to the local papers
and very few knowing anything of 1t
until afterward This is not consid-
cred the fault of the Los Angeles men
who came down ito spread the light"
but rather that Of the men who had
the affair in charge here. A prom
inent man, who Is a large property
owner here, said today:
"I do not think that the plan as un-
dertaken is going to be the right way.
The people at large are deSirous of
information and they want 1t first
hand, not from the committee Of any
local body The proper thing to do is
to call a mass meeting and lay the
matter before the people in general
and let all questions be asked and
answered"
Ask for Better Rates
The trend of opinion in regard to the
situation is that something more defin-
its must be offered than has been
talked yet to get the people to vote for
it. One of the first things which will
be asked is whether the Southern Pa
cific and other roads running into this
place will give San Pedro terminal
rates, or the same as Los Angeles
now has or will have in the future.
This, they say, should come from the
roads and not from representatives Of
Los Angeles, who are not authorized
to offer these things.
Another thing which would cause
general opinion to be in favor of the
move would be that a low rate of fare
on the electric roads be put into execu-
ton, a five-cent fare each way If pos
sible, or at least not more than 25
rates for commutation books in the
latter case.
Lower fares here, to the exclusion of
other beach cities not in the new cor
poration, might have a. Salutatory eff
feet on the vote say many of the citi-
Zens.
The offer of more water to come
from the Owens river does not meet
with much enthusiasm here. 1t is
claimed by those who know that there
is a thousand times more water going
to the sea under the ground near here
than San Pedro will need for many
years to come. Therefore. it is not
that which is wanted, but lower fares
on the roads and lower freight rates
as we'll.
An effort will be made at once to
have a public meeting called which all
may attend, and to which eminent
Angelenos, who are posted as to the
manner and plan of annexation, will
be invited to attend and speak, as well
as answer all questions.

STEER SWIMs ACROSS BAY
Jumps Overheard While Cattle steam-
err is Being Unloaded in
San Pedro Harbor
Special to The Herald.


SAN PEDRO, May 2s.-There was
quite little excitement on the
wharves today when the steamer
Santa Rosa Island came in with a load
of fat cattle from the island of the
same name. In discharging the stock
one large steer jumped over the side
of the boat next the open water and
swan across the bay. He was lassoed
before he could land and led back to
the boat, where he was lifted on board
with swing, the rope fastened to his
horns in the same manner used in the
Philippines.
The barkentine Cleaner, Capt,
Schmehl, and the schooner Bainbridge,
Capt InglebletZer, both of which got
out of this harbor on Friday last, ran
into each other in a dense fog off the
island of Santa Rosa yesterday morn
ing and did each other considerable
damage. Both vessels were obliged
to put back to this port for repairs
before they could proceed to their des-
tinations.
