COUNCIL PLANS
BUSY SESSION
Great Number of Ordinances Pile UP
Awaiting Action of Officials.
Board of Public Works
Far Behind

The announcement that the legal holi-
days would end next Tuesday brought
joy to the hearts of city officials yes
terday for the city's business has been
badly handicapped by the inability to
pass ordinances. If the governor ad-
heres to his intention to call off the
legal holidays next Tuesday, a week
city council.
There are nearly 150 ordinances that
have been held back because ordinances
cannot be passed on legal holidays. All
but about half'dozen of these are for
street improvements. The city attorney
has thirty ordinances, chiefly for the
opening and widening of streets.
Sixty-one ordinances for street work
by private contract have been drawn
up and are awaiting a business day, and
the city engineer has a large number of
ordinances for general street improve
ments under the Vrooman act. In addi-
ton to those already on hand others
are being prepared, and in all probabil-
ity, before the council has an opportu-
nifty to act on them, there will be at
least 200 ordinances delayed by legal
holidays.
After these ordinances have been
passed by the council they must be
signed by the mayor; such task
awaits him as he was compelled to as
sumo when the board of public works
took office March /.
The board of public works is exceed
ngly happy at the expressed intention
of the governor to discontinue the legal
holidays. This organization has been
badly handicapped since 1t took office.
When organized March 1 there was
two months work awaiting 1t that had
accumulated since the first of the year,
when the board should have gone into
office. but was prevented on account OF
the deadlock between the mayor and
council. Scarcely had the board sue
ceeded in getting it's piled up work out
of the way until the legal holidays were
declared and another delay was made
necessary.

RAID SAWTELLE
LIQUOR DEALERS
TWO ARRESTED ON CHARGE OF
HAVING NO LICENSE
OFFICERS Make Determined Effort to
Stamp Out "6oot-Leggers" and
Protect inmates Of SOL
ders' Home

In a determined effort to rid the
Soldiers Home at Sawtelle of its latest
acquisition Of liquor dealers Constable
De la Monte yesterday morning made
a little visit to the military encamp-
ment and warned ten men that il they
were caught selling liquor again within
the limited space reserved by the gov
ernment they would be prosecuted. De
la Monte arrested Tom Hines shoe
maker, and Ray Eurp, keeper Of a card
club. on charges Of selling liquor with
out license and brought the men to Los
Angeles.
For the past few weeks reports have
been received to the effect that boot
leggers" were infesting the reserva-
ton. The officers through persistent
work have managed to keep the vicin
ity of the home well cleared of such,
and when the report of the presence
of boot-leggers reached them they de-
cided on immediate action.
Secure Much Evidence
Evidence was secured in several cases.
but yesterday the constable learned
that many of the suspected men have
left the city others who were sus-
pected, but against whom no evidence
had been secured, were warned that
the slightest attempt to violate the
liquor law would meet with quick pun
ishment
The "boot-legger" has been the worst
enemy of the officers at other soldiers
homes for many years, but only in the
past few weeks have they appeared in
Sawtelle. These men carry TASKS of
whisky secreted on their persons, gem
orally stuck in their bootleg, and
they sell the stuff to the old soldiers by
the drink.
n ch lyo,. ,bO xtrac
rested yesterday morning, is an old
soldier. He is accused of selling liquor
to inmates of the home. 1t is alleged
against Hines that he kept the whisky
in an old coffee pot and that whenever
the old soldiers called in to have their
shoes fixed he sold them drink.
Results in Arrest
The officers began to notice that the
old soldiers were having their shoes
patched more than necessary and their
investigation resulted in the arrest Of
Hines.
Two charges were filed against Ray
Eurp, who has been conducting a card
playing resort. The first charges him
with playing poker and winnig the
money OF the old soldiers through the
kitty" The second charge alleged
Eurp sod liquor illegally as a side issue
to his gambling room.
The raid made yesterday was pre-
caution to stop liquor traffic in Saw
telle today, when the old soldiers will
all celebrate Decoration day. The
monthly pension day will give the old
men an extra supply of money and the
officers are attempting to save them
from being swindled of their money.
The old soldiers are indignant over
the raids and many of them state that
they want liquor sold in Sawtelle, and
that if they cannot get it there they
will simply have to go to Los Angeles,
where they can get all they want of it.

sPREckELs SELL COAL ROAD
Southern Pacific Buys Valuable Hold
lngs In Oregon for $1,ooo,ooo
sy Associated Press.


PORTLAND, Ore, May 29.-An
evening paper says the Coos Bay,
Roseburg & Eastern railroad, from
Myrtle Point to Marshfield, has been
sold by the Spreckels of San Francisco
to the Southern Pacific. 1t is said the
price paid was Approximately $1,000,-
600 for the railroad and all appurte-
nances, exclusive of the coal proper
ties owned by the Spreckels. 1t is
said the Hartman company has had
an option on the road for several
months.
A recent ruling of the supreme court
that railroad may not acquire or own
coal mines is said to have fastened
the transfer of the road. The Spreck-
els interests will retain the valuable
Beaver Hin mines and other coal prop
critics owned by them at the head of
Coos bay.
1t is understood that the Southern
Pacific will extend the road south to
meet the Santa Fe road at the Cali
fornia line under an alleged agreement
that the Santa Fe will not build into
Oregon and the Southern Pacific not
build into California on the coast. Con-
firmation Of the above cannot be OBJ
tanned here General Manager j. p.
O'Brien of the Hartman system in
Oregon states that he knows nothing
of the contamination of the deal il it
has been put through.

SoUALoR AND PICTURESQUE.
NESS PREVAIL
Opium Dens and Hishbinders Are to
Be Seen in That Portion Of Los
Angeles Great Celestial
Settlement

Teeming with the sights and sounds
of the orient, smelling Of opium and
dried fish and peopled by the most pic
turesque nal4on in the world, the Los
Angeles Chinatown, the greatest i'm the
United States, is at present enjoying
one Of the lost prosperous epochs in
its history.
Within just five minutes ride from
the very heart of the city lies the
quaint old settlement while thousands
of pedestrians pass 1t Y and more
than half the people of Los Angeles
have never been within its forbidding
limits
1t is Chinatown for Chinese and
they insist on having things their own
way. Back in the history of the great
Mongolian settlement of the northern
city, the white toughs and gamblers
figured prominently in the government
of the settlement but the white man
keeps strictly away from the affairs
of the Los Angeles settlement and to
the odor of garlic and the clatter of a
thousand foreign tongues the China
town of Los Angeles is forging to the
front.
See but the Simple Life
The thousands of tourists and Wis
itors who yearly stop in Los Angeles
rarely miss q chance to go through
Chinatown and all Of them tell of their
experiences when they return to the
east They have seen only the light,
airy section, the simple life of the
yellow man while within the craniums
of the smiling celestials who watch
them lie stories exciting enough to
cause listener to grow wide eyed
at the hearing.
The town proper begins at Ferguson
alley and Los Angeles street. Just
above that is long narrow street with
high brick buildings on either side and
Chinese live there, but they are con-
sidered outside the confines of the
town proper.
The stories about things which the
visitor fails to see would make large
book
To start down Ferguson alley. one
must watch warily, for cats lie bask-
ing in the sun at every turn and 1t is
a crime to step on a Chinese cat. To
the left is the Gong Jue joss house,
the type seen in every Chinatown,
and then begins the district that the
visitors never penetrate.
Relics of Former Days
Scores of shacks line the alley to the
right and left, and in these the celes-
tals live like rabbits in their burroW.
Many of the places were formerly used
as cribs, the doors still are painted
red and the names of former denizens
still glare forth from the door posts.
Within these houses the celestlals
smoke away their lives, playing fan
tan and caring for no one.
A turn to the left, short walk
across Alameda street and the stranger
is transported over the waters to the
home of the celestial. 1t is no longer
the John and Charlie" of the laundry
and vegetable wagons. The men are
called "Ah" as a prefix and they walk
about in their robes and bow to their
friends.
The streets are narrow and the
houses look like they were leaning to-

BL|GHTED LOVE
CAUSES INSANITY
Unfortunate Man viii Be Examined
Neutrality-suspicious. Agree to Care
for Disconsoate One If
Court Advises

When the pretty little sweetheart OF
Marvin Purdue refused to marry him,
the young man, who at that time was
employed by a local confectioner, be-
came i'll and refused to have anything
to do with his friends, Several days
ago, when the young woman eloped
with another and was married in the
north, Purdue became crazed with grler.
Yesterday, after a weeks treatment IN
the county hospital, he was taken be-
fore Judge Gibbs In department two
of the superior court and arraigned on
a charge of insanity.
The young man came to Los Angeles
several months ago from Atlanta, Ga.
Ills relatives are descendants of we'll
to-do southern family. Purdue is
graduate of a Georgia college and sew
eral years ago was considered one of the
best bicycle racers in the south.
Meets Fair charmer
Finally he left home and came west.
He failed to secure employment in Los
Angeles for some time, but finally was
hired by l.. j. Christopher.
Then the young man met fair young
woman of the Westlake district. Who
she was none of his friends ever learned,
but he spent every moment of his lei
sure time with her and announced that
he was going to marry her.
The path of love seemed very smooth
with the young people and Purdue made
active preparations to we'd his sweet
heart. one evening he returned to his
work and seemed greatly distressed.
He refused to tell any of his friends
what the trouble was. He finally be-
came so melancholy that his employer
had him examined by an insanity ex-
pert. Purdue then said that his sweet
heart had refused to marry him and he
was disconsolate. Thinking a change
might be beneficial to him, the young
mans friends sent him away for q
short vacation.
Learns of Marriage
When he returned he seemed in the
best of health and went back to work.
Then he learned that his sweetheart
had married another. He disappeared
that night and all trace of him was lost
until he was arrested as a suspicious
character. Officers saw him prowling
about and talking to himself, and took
him to the city jail. Several days ago
he was examined for the second time
and then an insanity complaint was
filed against him and he was sent to
the county hospital for treatment
Yesterday he was taken before Judge
Gibbs and arraigned and his examina-
ton set for Thursday.
The young man has many friends
who will send him to a sanitarium II
the commission so advises. 1t is
though, however, that his case Is sim
ply one of melancholia brought on by
his trouble and that a few months Of
rest cure i'm some state institution will
restore him to complete health.
