 Him Badly Treated.
 London, March 31-The Times corre- spondent at Vienna, in treating of the Storer incident, says;

the wish of Mr.. Niles for a long time
that he could have DR.. Branner as

look around the station and think what
a disappointing outlook there was. Now
1 am going to see all the wonderful
beauties of the city of which we have
heard so much" said DR.. Branner when
seen last evening in the Angelus cor
ridor. Asked about Stanford, DR..

markable the rapidity with which the
buildings are being remodeied and we
will be able to put our best foot for
ward again"
1t is expected that DR.. Branner's ad-
dress this evening will be one of the
most interesting of the institute. He
will speak at the Polytechnic school.

with other prominent members Of the
committee arrived at the Alexandria
Yesterday from San Diego, where they
have been attending the meeting of the
committee.
1.-THE meeting was the most success
full we have ever held and we did
things. We did not waste our time in
mere conversation but we did things,
said Mr.. Jennings.
"a question which is vital to every
part of California and should be upper
most in all men anxious for the better
development of the state, was discussed
and / predict that great good will come
of the action taken there. l refer to
the harbor question. The betterment
of the San Pedro harbor will benefit
not only the people of Los Angeles, but
the people of the whole state.
"a harbor at San Pedro is as much
benefit to the man who lives in the
northernmost part of the state as to the
man who lives down here, for it de-
yelops the entire state. Our harbors
should be free ports of the best kind
that will invite the commerce of the
world, and we do not intend to stop
until they are such.
Lee y. ddtes, VIM ~ csSi1Su 'iiN
harbor question at the meeting, did so
in a very able manner, and his remarks
were received with much enthusiasm.
1--WE believe that the entire state can
make a much better appeal for aid in
the building of harbors than any one
section of the state, and we hope to
achieve much in the way of harbor APP
preparations.
There were one hundred delegates
at the meeting in San Diego and they
represented fifty-one counties. The
work is growing all the time and the
field is still broadening.
Anything of detriment to one part
of the state is a detriment to the whole
state, and when everyone begins to
boost the whole world will know Of

HUSKY DEPUTY HAS BACKBREAKING
EXPERIENCE EJECTING TURNIPS

the tenant OF the lots upon which he
kept his truck garden.
Has Weird Experiences
A writ of dispossession is not a nice
document to serve, particularly when
Il is upon q truck gardener, and Ad-
ans was assigned the duty.
Adams has been assigned such jobs
regularly and his stories of hard luck
would fill a book. First, when trying
to eject the black mamma of a dusky
prize fighter he was padded then he
argued with such feeling in trying to
eject General Moore of the Union mis-
sion from his premises that he was
compelled to engage in rough and
tumble fight. Then, In trying to cap
ture some bad BOYS who were planning
to carry away a real estate office on
Halloween night, Jack climbed into the
real estate shack only to have the tiny
building rolled down the hill near
Colegrove by the festive lads, and Jack
was still i'm it wen 1t reached the bot
tom of the hill. Such have been few
of the experiences undergone by the
deputy and yesterday he reached the
limit when he was told to eject the
gardener.
When Adams reached the place he
was told that his presence was not de-
sired He intimated that he was about
to eject the plants and vegetables from
the property and then started in to
do it,
TIE gardener refused to assist. He
even refused to allow the deputy to use
any of the spades, rakes or hoes about
the place. and Adams was compelled
to claw about on that acre of ground
like a good little rat dog, digging up
with his hands, wedding up
beets piling out tomatoes in the street,
while the owner watched the wreck
and ruin with language inappropriate
for public print
Finally, after playing the CLEANER for
three hours, Adams had piled up every
plant on the acre and taken them to
the street. He then returned to the
office, but it is understood
he will be unfit for duty for several
days because of his backbreaking eX-
perience

POLICE BAFFLED
BY BARE FEET
LOS ANGELES VISITOR WORKS
PASADENA
Enters Three Houses in one Niaht.
Dog chsses Him Out of one
Residenee--secures Some
Money

The barefoot burglar, late the terror
Of Los Angeles householders, has paid
Pasadena a visit and left his bare
tracks in three of its homes. Two of
them were the residences of wealthy
citizens.
The police worked on the case all
day yesterday and own to being baf-
fled. There is no clew to the burglars
identity nor any description of him,
save meager one, given by a boy
who chased him from the residence
of Mrs. C. Rememan at So Catalina ave-
nue. at midnight last night.
The residence of DR.. Dillworth, III
South Eel Moline avenue, was entered
and $40 secured Entrance was OBJ
tanned through the bathroom. The
burglar leaving his big footprints to
mark his trail, stole up the stairway,
through the corridor and into the bed
room of George Curry. who is staying
at the Dillworth residence. While the
young man slept the burglar went
through his clothes. From a coat he
took a pocketbook containing $50 in
bills. Checks and papers that might
lead to identification he left behind
From a trousers pocket he took purse
containing S. in gold and SIS in silver
He then descended and there all trace
was lost.
Just prior to burglarizing the Dill
worth residence the burglar went
through the residence of o. T. Nay, 1856
South FL Moline avenue, Just across
the street. He took a box from the
rear of the barn and put it to the din
ing room window and raised the SASH
Through the various rooms he stole
till he had looked over the whole in
terror of the house and then finally he
dived into the bedroom of Mr.. Nay
and went through his clothes. Mr..
Nay was sleeping three feet from him
as he worked.
Secures Money
He secured a $40 gold piece and two
fives and departed. Outside the win
dow he stopped long enough to put on
his shoes and wore them as he crossed
the street to enter the residence of Dr.
Dillworth.
At the residence of Mrs. c. Rememan
the burglar secured entrance through
pantry window and. though the shelves
were loaded with good things, he passed
them by and entered the bedroom of
Hugo Rememan, went throughs the
young mans pockets and secured 40
cents. A dog sleeping in the kitchen
set up a howl and awakened young
Rememan- He arose and chased the
burglar through the window and across
the lawn. An attempt was made to
telephone the police but telephone con-
nection3 were severed.
The burglars tracks, left at each of
the houses he entered, are ten and
three-quarters inches long and four
inches wide; the instep is exceptionally
hollow. The big toe turns in, the sec
ond toe squares up with the big toe
and the impression answers in every
particular to that of the barefoot burg
lar footprints left at Los Angeles door
steps. The local police believe the man
was the same as he who fought two
running duels with the police officers
of Los Angeles, who tried to capture
him after catching him red-handed at
his trade

Coming-"Uncle Josh Spruceby'' for
one night, Tuesday, October 9th, at the
Mcintyre Opera House. The realistic
saw mill scene in Uncle Josh Spruce
by" the DownE asst play, comes nearer
to the genuine article than any Of the
many stage effects now before the pub
lc In fact, SO real is the 35-inch buzz
saw, that one of the actors OF the
play had his right hand cut off at the
wrist during q performance last season
in Illinois. No play nowadays is COM
plete without something in the way OF
mechanical effects. "Uncle Josh Spruce
by lays claim to of the most
novel scenes of any piece on the road
this season. 4 full and entirely prac-
teal saw mill is placed upon the stage
and appropriate scenery Is used to make
a superior stage picture. When the
heroine Is rescued from her perilous po-
sition at the climax of the act, tho
hearty applause gives evidence of the
appreciation of this acme of stage real
ism.
