PLAN GREAT DRAINAGE
SYSTEM FOR BEACH
to The Herald.


VENICE, Jan. 2S.-In conjunction
with the Los AngelesPacific railway
and the Abbot Kinney company, per-
sons owning property in the Short Line
beach district are considering plans for
the installation of a system of drainage
which will make impossible a reoccur-
ance of the deporable conditions that
have been brought about by the recent
rains.
Southwest of Fredericks there are
tens of acres Of land completely under
water, while for about half mile run
ming south of the Los Angeles-Pacific
tracks pools ranging to a foot in depth
have formed. Considerable relief has
been afforded by the canal waterways
through which muc.- of the rain has
drained.
Unless some unforeseen obstruction
should be thrown across the path of the
Abbot Kinney company tomorrow when
the United States engineer at Los An
geles will be prepared to receive pro-
tests, If any, against the construction
Of the promised breakwater, the work,
according to the statement of c. E.
Barnard, general manager of the Kin
ney company, of advancing the project
will be Immediately and vigorously
pushed with the Idea of carrying out
the plans in the shortest possible time.
The expense will be a secondary con-
sideration in the matter.
So far as is known here there has
been no objection entered nor Is there
likely to be from local sources.
With few exceptions the plans have
received the approval of the prof. erty
owners in the districts which will be
most affected by the improvements,
while in all other parts of the bay Sec
ton the project has received unanimous
Endorsement.
Engineers who have recently been
here and expressed themselves after
investigating the breakwater plans are
of the opinion that not less than $780,
900 will be required for the work.

Special to The Herald.

LONG BEACH, Jan. 2S.-W. H.
Hermann, the young Canadian whose
pocketbook and cash We're filched from
his oVercoat pocket month ago by a
pretty blonde, the girl with the cold
hands,' was in Long Beach last night
and related strange coincidence which
occurred Saturday night.
Il was in a dance hall in Los An
geles," he said, when a gentleman
friend told me he wanted me to meet a
chance acquaintance of his. He led me
across the hall and introduced me to
a blonde beauty, the very one whose
cold hands were shyly stuck in my
pockets in front of the Salt Lake depot
some weeks ago. 1 threw 1t up to her
at once. She denied that her hands
had ever been in my overcoat pocket,
or any of my other pockets for that
matter and said that a friend of hers
had taken my coin. She said they
had considered it great lark and that
they didn't suppose that 1 cared enough
about a measly little $12 to make a
fuss about it.
"She said this friend of hers was at
the dance hall and that she would
bring her around. She further asserted
that If wanted the money back this
lass would hand it over. Well, she
struck across the floor, looking here
and there, as if hunting her friend
Soon she was lost from my sight in
the crowd. 1 waited for her to come
back, and 1 am still waiting"
Hermann said that he would return
to Winnipeg in a short time and that
he would warn any of his friends con-
templating a trip to sunny Southern
California to beware of the girl with
the cold hands,"

who was the central figure in one of
the most peculiar and sensational series
of court proceedings that occupied the
attention of Los Angeles county judi
cial talent is theJcentral figure in an
other court action brought today when
Mrs. Fred PAIL swore to a complaint
charging Mrs. Lewis with disturbing
the peace. Mrs. PAIL stated that Mrs
Lewis swore before Mrs. Pahl's chill
dren. The complaint was the third one
sworn to in which the Lewis and PAIL
families are mixed.
David c. Lewis, familiarly known as
Bud" Lewis, swore to the first COM
plaint. 1t charged David Pahl with as
sault.
Following this the second complaint
was sworn to by Mr.. Phal and it
charged Mr.. Lewis with disturbing the
peace.
BY the time all the stories were told
and retold Judge Mcdonald was seri-
ously thinking of charging all four with
disturbing his peace. The court was
on the verge of distraction.
Starts About Chickens
Mrs. Pahl and the children, having
discreetly muttered their maledictions
themselves that there is no charge the
Lewis family can bring against them.
The court is equally grateful.
According to the tales that were
poured into the ear of the court the
squabble started over chickens. The
members of the feathered tribe, it is
alleged, belong to the Lewises. The back
yard of the Pahls belongs to the Pahls
and the chickens in strolling from the
back yard of the Lewises transgressed
and. 1t is alleged, worked destruction
in the land commonly known through
out that neighborhood as the Pahls
back yard.
This transgression lead to an ex-
change of courtesies between the two
families. Pahl lives in the third house
south of Westgate on old Fair Oaks
avenue and Lewis lives in the fourth
house south OF Westgate on old Fair
Oaks avenue, SO all the two families
had to do to exchange courtesies was
to shout over the back fence.
1t is said that the courtesies We're
principally a mixture of French and
English though 1t is alleged the Eng

queens English. 1t was also sadly at
variance with the variety prescribed
