READY FOR TRIP
T0 PACIFIC ISLES
Members of Chamber Of Commerce
Excursion to Hawaii Next Month
Are Completing Their
Plans for Sail

With the approach of sailing time, Los
Angeles business men who will form
the excursion from this city to the
Hawaiian islands next month are max
ing preparations for the journey Ward
robes are being purchased, old trunks
and steamer bags renovated, and final
plans being made for the journey.
The committee on arrangements de-
clares that the coming trip will be one
Of the best the chamber has ever en-
joyed. Over ITS have already secured
accommodations, and the committee
has decreed that all who signed up for
the trip must either reserve their
berths at once or outside parties will
be permitted to take their places.
The Hawaiian promotion committee
has suggested a slight change in the
itinerary. Instead of stopping at Hilo
on the way home the promotion COM
mittee suggests that the party go to
Hilo first, where the entertainment
committee will meet them and take
them to the volcano. From this they
will be driven down to the other side
of the island to Honuapo. The steamer
will continue it's course around the
island and meet them at the far side.
In this way the visitors will be shown
the old city of refuge, and alco Capt.
Cooks monument.
The chamber of commerce has ap-
pointed Chairman Harron as a regular
steamship agent, with offices on the
third floor of the Chamber of Commerce
building. Mr.. Harron is in constant
attendance at these offices.
From Tacoma comes the word that
the Washingtonians were so well
pleased with their reception last year
that they desire to repeat it. The Ta-
coma chamber of commerce has sent
word that 100 residents of the northern
city will visit Los Angeles February 16
to pass ten days or two weeks in the
Angel City. The local chamber is ar
ranging many pleasant side trips to live
up to the reputation for hospitality
made last year.
The Berkeley Daily Gazette is ar
ranging to send a bevy of seven of the
fairest maidens of the university town
to this city and has written to the Los
Angeles chamber for information as to
local attractions. The young women
will be chosen by ballot, the contest
ending March 8.
The National Educational association
has given up the idea of meeting in
Philadelphia next summer, and is now
figuring OH rates to Los Angeles. A
telegram to that effect was received by
the Los Angeles chamber, which al
ready feels confident that the educators
will gather here next summer.

RESENTS interference OF
HUMANE SOCIETY
Prefers to Take Care of His Brothers
and Sisters Himself, and Pro-
tects Home with His
Fists

When the responsibility of the care
of a home and three children falls upon
one little boy that little boy has to
have a great big surplus Of the pure
metal rammed down his backbone If
he hopes to succeed, and little Charlie
Darling, outlaw, outcast and rebel, who
defied the entire humane office and the
juvenile court in defense of his home
yesterday, found that a brave man, old
or young, Is respected as an equal Of
any man.
Charlie Darling is II years of age, but
is so small that he does not appear
more than 10 or II. His father, Charles
Darling, a hard working man, has had
enough troubles to drive an ordinary
man to the madhouse, but the father
is built of the right sort of material,
and the boy probably inherited it.
Several months ago Mrs. Darling. the
mother, was taken i'll.
Mother Goes Insane
She gathered about her her four chill
dren and hugged them to her as If she
knew what was to come and feared to
lose them. The little Hunter street
home became gloomy where there had
once been sunshine. Then one day
Darling came home to find his wife
staring at him and laughing, but 1t was
not nice to hear. Mrs Darling was
sent to the insane asylum, and four
little youngsters were without mother.
The father worked every day, receiv-
ing a small wage, and he could not
afford to hire anyone to care for the
children. Therefore the duty fell to
Charlie, the Oldest of the family, to
little Charlie, whom the boys of the
street call Shorty Red" and whom the
women Of the neighborhood call hero.
Charlie was not accustomed to being
called by his last name. Such epithets
were saved for the others. He had
been just Shorty" His face was not
pretty, but the expression Of determine
ton gave 1t a glow. His head was
shaved. showing it's fine shape but dis
closing the fact that Charles ears
stood out too far from his head. His
forehead wrinkled with grins his eyes
wrinkled with more grins, showing blue
and Irish under the sunburned lashes.
His face used to be white before 1t was
freckled. and a small nose snubbed up

ward to show the broad gap of mouth
and the strong white teeth. His neck
was thin like all little boys necks, but
his shoulders squared out and his legs
WERE stocky, and no one ever remem
bered having offended him withou
bearing away painful marks of thu
combat.
Charlie Nurses Whole Family
So Charlie was nurse for the family
He washed dishes, and when the boys
twitted him about 1t he clicked EN-
good" He swept the house, wearing a
soiled kitchen apron tied under his
freckled chin, and no one laughed at
him a second time. He made beds and
played mother for the home. His sis
ters, both larger than himself, are beau
tiful little girls, and Charlie helped
dress them to send to school. His
brother Willie, the baby of the family,
had to be amused and cared for. When
the little hero would have liked to have
been kicking a football in the street or
fighting the battles Of his gang he was
slowly spelling out some fairy story
from a dirty book. The gang was slip
ping away from him, and he, their king
and master, who had ruled by right of
might, sat by and watched them go. 1t
was bitter pill, great big lesson for
one little man, but the little one fought
1t out alone and unaided.
Then came a time when Charlie re-
turned home to find that the humane
officers had taken his sisters from him
and had put them in converts. Lille,
II years old, was sent to Boyle
Heights home, and she escaped and re-
turned to her home. Charlie lied like
a gentleman for more than a week and
kept the officers from finding her. AT
last they found her and she was sent
back to convent.
Defies Humane Officers
That nearly broke Charles heart
Again the officers came, and Charlie,
unable to stand the thought of losing
his little brother had the youngster
Juvenile court and the humane officers
1t was the fight of very little boy
against the whole world, but the blue
eyes did not waver and he kept the
officers at bay. Finally they captured
him after he had fought with his fists
standing in the doorway of his home
and keeping the officers away.
First they took his little brother away
and then they took him on a charge II
being incorrigible. He had threatened
to shoot the humane officer.
Yesterday he was examined by judge
Wilbur and he was allowed to return to
his father.
Five women in the neighborhood had
testified to his manhood, his self-sacri-
flee and his desperate defense of his
home. Those same women have ar
ranged now to find homes for the girls
and for the little boy, and Charlie will
remain with his father and go to school

SUNSHINE HURRIES
CROSSWALKS WORK

The crosswalks gangs of the board
of public works are busily engaged TAX
ing advantage of the sunny weather to
lay down the much needed walks.
Hundreds of applications are on file,
and four is the maximum number of
walks that can be installed in one day
with the present force of workmen.
For some months the street railroads
have delayed walks across their tracks
at crossings on the plea that they
wanted to put in permanent asphalt
crossings. The board has now issued a
peremptory order that either asphalt or
wood be put In at once between the car
rails.

GATEWAY OF ANCIENT CHINA.
Old Mud Fort With Heaps of Small

embassies from the West, have been
forced to await the permission of the
mighty emperors of Cathay before en-
tering China. AS such, aud from its

frontier post has long enjoyed halo

to such places as are to be seen at

quarters.

an area some 1870 To $50 yards square
On the north and south sides these
