PROTEST BEARS ITS FRUIT
Robert FurIong Withdraws Application
for Pool and Billiard Hall on
Central Avenue

Finding the opposition to his Install
ing pool and billiard room in his
property at 2515 Central avenue too
strong, Robert Furlong last evening
withdrew his application for a permit
from the police commission. Fifty men
and women who live in the neighbor-
hood where Furlong proposed to estab-
lish pool room were present at the
session of the commission last evening
to protest.
Furlong owns a row of business
buildings in Central avenue, near
Twenty-fifth street. He succeeded in
renting all but one, and wishing to
secure some revenue from the unrented
building asked the police commission
for pool room license. When it was
known that a pool room was to be in
stalled in the building a church across
the street circulated a protest among
the congregation. In order to have the
protest withdrawn Furlong bought the
church property. The opposition, how
ever. was not lessened.

CHARGED WITH SELLING
LIQUOR TO INDIANS
LA CANADA MAN ARRESTED BY
COUNTY OFFICIAL
Complaint Made That Rancher Made
Wine Without License and Dis
posed of Product to Natives-Pasa-
dena Officers Take, Action

Complaint was ma lie yesterday morn
ing against Joseph Deitl of La Canada
for alleged illegal selling of liquor with
out a license, and late last night the
man was taken to Pasadena by Con-
stable Austin. Deitl will be given a pre-
liminary examination today in the JUS
tice court at Pasadena.
1t is alleged that for the past three
years Mr.. Deitl has been making wine
without a license at his place in La
Canada. The customers Of Mr.. Deitl
have been, it is said, Mexicans and In
dians. and it is alleged by the people of
La Canada much disturbance has been
made on account of drunkenness.
Two years ago complaint was made to
the district attorneys Office that Deitl
had been selling liquor to Indians. but
evidence was not secured which would
warrant the mans conviction.
During tire last three weeks a repre-
sentative of the Pasadena police force
is said to have secured abundance of
evidence which will incriminate Mr..
Deitl. The people of La Canada are
said to be ready with facts which will
show that wine has teen sold to two
Indians, and this fact is said to in
criminate Deitl for selling liquor to In
dians contrary to the federal law.

JOKE is ON AN
AGENT OF CUPID
CLERK MISTAKES GIRLS MOTHER
FOR BRIDE
official Thinks Young Man Is Foolish,
but Changes His Mind When
He Sees the
Girl

The joke was on the clerk at the
court house when a strangely assorted
couple entered the Office for a marriage
license yesterday. The official had
everything i'm readiness when they
stepped up to the counetr.
The usual questions were asked, such
as Were you ever married before?
and so on.
what is your name, please?" the
clerk continued.
Manuel Ascencio," came the willing
reply
81 think you had better put that on
paper. It's too strong for me-
Next came the question: what is
your age, please?" directed to the man.
"Thirty-one." That was recorded.
The woman did not understand Eng
lish
What is the lady's name?"
Francesca Yorba."
What is her age, please?"
The woman understood that and
complied with nineteen"
why" said the official, "you are
older than nineteen. You are an old
woman; you must be at least seventy.
You know you have to swear to 1t"
"Oh," said the bridegroom-to-be
"this is not the girl; it is her mother" "
Then the records were promptly can
celed on the books.
Later in the day the same man ap-
peared with his pretty and blushing
fiancee. She answered her Questioner
without a hitch and gave her age as
nineteen.
II thought at first that young fellow
was candidate for the foolish house,
but l see he knows what he's doing"
said the agent of Cupid as he turned
to the next couple.
