PASADENA, Sept. 10-Another at

Electric railway, together with the
newly arranged schedule over the main

Every other car. coming from Los
Angels stops at Mission street, there
connecting with the short line cars,
the alternating car stopping at the
ostrich farm. The schedule is far from
being acceptable to either South Pasa-

to Los Angeles or Highland Park or
Garvanza and are obliged to make dis
agreeable transfers in going that dis

IT is likely that more protests will be

Mr.. McLendon, in the course of his re-

in favor of the claim Of Searchlights
adherents that this camp will equal

contemporaries, Goldheld, Tonopah and
Manhattan. He mentioned the fact
that where the latter camps will always
have to depend upon their mines for

Searchlight has the advantage of not

WOULD GROW COTTON HERE
North Pasadena Citizen Is Experi-

Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
PASADENA, Sept. 10.-Viola Pinson
of 1882 Sunset avenue is carrying on an
Interesting experiment as to the possi-
bility of cotton growing in the neigh
borhood Of Pasadena and is ready to
pronounce his experiment a success.
Pinson was formerly a resident OF
Georgia, and on moving to this city
could see no reason why the crop which
is Georgia's staple could not become
valuable here. To this end he sent
back east for cotton seed, which he
planted in his lot on Sunset avenue.
Today he has six rows of the cotton
plants, each row about twenty feet
long and every plant In athriving con-
dition. He has given the plants but
one irrigation thus far and says that
two irrigations at most would be all
that the crop would need.
The plants were set out May IL and
will soon be ready for harvest, as the
cotton balls are nearly ready to pop
open. Mr.. Pinson says that in his
opinion cotton can be profitably grown
here and that an acre Of ground would
yield In the neighborhood of two bales
of cotton. AS cotton is worth about
s75 bale he considers that the income
would be very good.

Special to The Herald.
LONG BEACH, Sept. 10.--Constance
Lilly, who early yesterday morning shot
and killed Alexander Gonzales a Mexi-
can laborer on the Torrey ranch, north
west of here, was arrested this morning
by the authorities at Santa Ana and
was brought to this city and lodged in
jail. Lilly went to Santa Ana yester-
day, riding his sisters bicycle. He
stayed all night with family named
wilson, for whom he formerly worked,
He said this afternoon that he had
decided to give himself up here yester-
day, as his mother and elder brother
had advised him to do, but that he was
dissuaded by young friends whom ne
met on the street and who told him
that he would receive a long-term
prison sentence.
Lilly said this afternoon that he killed
the Mexican in self-defense, after the
latter had started toward him with a
milking stool raised above his head.

at me with pitchfork because L would

Lilly's mother who lives in a small
cottage on Walnut street, near the foot
of Signal Hill, said this afternoon that
Constance had expressed to her his

four children. An older son, we'll and
favorably known here, is employed by
the Pacific Electric company. The hus-
band is living in Pendleton, Ore, and

A leader of the Lincoln party told
the other day in Philadelphia n story
of the astuteness of Lincoln as a
lawyer.
When Lincoln was practising law
he said. he had case involving a
disputed will. The opposition claimed
the will was genuine and for several
hours adduced proof of this. For
Lincoln, who had to prove the will a
forgery, things looked black.
Lincoln, however, only called one
witness, a retired paper manufactur-
err. renowned the country over for
his wealth and probity.
Mr.. Dash Lincoln said to this
witness. handing him the disputed
will, please hold that paper up to
the light and tell us what is the water
mark on it.

We are wont to speak of this era
as the "age of IRON" and there is no
gainsaying that, industrially speaking,
iron is precious metal
Nevertheless, few people realize
how useful, If not absolutely neces-
.sary. to modern civilization, is that
other metal. lead. Soft. yielding,
pliable, it is not much like its sister
metal, but those distinguishing quail
ties are what give it such prominent
place In the arts and industries.
Modern plumbing. requiring many
turnings and twistings, but withal
tight joints, would be almost impos-
sible without lead pipe. The great
est civilizing agent in the world-the
printing arts absolutely dependent
on lead. Hand-set type, linotype
'.slugs." monotype type all are
made of compositions of which lead
is the chief component-to say moth
ing of the bearings in the presses as
well as all other kinds of machinery
in which "babbitt" metal is used.
Solder is another lead product
what field of usefulness that one
form opens up.
Then there is the most important
use of all to which lead is put-paint
that necessary material which keeps
our houses looking pretty inside
and out-and preserves them from
decay.
How many of us thank metallic lead
for the comforts of paint? Yet the
best house paint is nothing but me-
tallic lead corroded by acid to white
powder known as white lead" or
course, there are many limitations of
white lead" some of which are sold
as white lead and some which are
offered by the name of ready-pre-
pared paint under the familiar pre-
tense that they are just as good as
white lead. But all good paint is
made of the metal, lead, corroded and
ground to a fine white powder and
mixed with linseed oil.
White lead is also used in the coat
ing of fine oil cloths and for many
purposes besides paint.
Red lead" is another product of
metallic lead and is what is known as
an oxide of lead being produced by
burning the metal. Red lead is the
best paint known to preserve iron,
steel or tin, and is used largely in
painting metal structures. such as
skyscraper skeletons, mills and
bridges.
There are many other products of
the metal lead. such as litharge
orange mineral, etc. which are es-
sential to many of the arts in which
we never imagine that lead would be
of the least use.
Verify, we live in an age of lead
| as well as of iron.

If your teeth are fit, chew, chew,

If teeth are faulty, soften Grape

There's a reason" as follows:
Grape-Nuts food is in the form
of hard and brittle granules,
intended to be ground up by the
teeth; that work not only preserves
the teeth but brings down the saliva
from the gums SO necessary in the

food but other kinds which formerly
