GIRL TELLS JUDGE
A PI7zFUL STORY
FOUND LOVER HAD uLTERIoR
DESIGNS
Man She Accuses Is In Hands Of the
County Authorities and viii Be
Tried on Charge Of
Abduction

Pale with terror and her eyes red with
much weeping, pretty vesta Grubb hard
ly 16 years old, told Judge Wilbur of the
superior court yesterday perhaps one of
the most pitiable and revolving tales
which has been heard in court for quite
a long time.
When the girl drew near the bench
where the judge sat she became hys-
terical and had to be assisted to the
witness chair. The judge tried to calm
her, but that only made matters worse.
Finally, however, her weeping subsidized.
She turned pleadingly to the court and
lawyers as though asking them to make
her ordeal as light and short as possible.
Then in broken accents she began: II
loved James, James who" interrupted
the court. James Budd Claudius," was
the reply, ''but sometimes he went by
the name of Bert Lorraine. He told me
how much he thought Of me and asked
me to go to Bakersfield and live with
him At the time 1 didn't think any
thing of it and trusted all to him, think
ing he would right matters. When we
got there, we'll" here she paused, but
the court said kindly: go on, Vesta;
tell Jus all that happened"
The girls voice grew very faint, and
In tone that was not audible to the
curious spectators she told the judge
of how her lover lured her into dis
orderly house and would have kept her
there had 1t not been for the timely
interference of the police authorities.
w. M. Ingram, plain clothes man,
got hold of the story some way or other,
and Immediately left for Bakersfield,
where. making careful investigation,
he located the unfortunate girl and
brought her to Los Angeles.
Claudius, alias Lorraine, Is in the hands
of the county officers and on September
20 he will be arraigned on a charge of
abduction. According to arresting off,
GERS the case against the alleged abb
ductor is a telling one.
The girl is still under the supervision
of the superior court.

CLOWNS REALLY LEARN
SOME BRAND NEW STUNTS
Ringing Brothers Present Joil,
Bunch of Funmakers Who Do
Things Little Different
from Others

Ringing Brothers are presenting. thl
season the jolliest company Of comedian
that ever carried an audience over thu
merry highroads of laughter. All thu
old methods of Glowing have been dis
carded and In their stead are a thousand
funny scenes and familiar pictures of life
burlesqued in a manner that brings tears
of laughter to the eyes of the most Sc
date.
A few of these funny men are George
Hartzel in ridiculous monkey house
episode; AL Miaco, the greatest of all
pantomimists; Jules Turnour, presenting
an act which he calls ION the Field of
Honor; Doc Kealey, the laundering po-
liceman; AL White, the best imperson-
ator of familiar characters before the
public; John Slater, who was educated
for the hand organ; Dick Ford in a
hilarious moving day scene, and Art jar
Wis, who can get a laugh and round of
applause without moving a muscle.
In addition to the regular Glowing the
comedy element of the performance is in
creased by a number of grotesque spe-
cialties in the rings and on the stages,
among them being clever clown dog
stunt, and extremely funny bar and ira
peze travesties by Horton and Under, the
Livingston trio, the three Prosets, the
Marno troup and the great Toreodors
When Ringing Brothers circus visits
Los Angeles for an engagement of three
days. commencing Monday, September %,
people will witness the greatest parade
that ever passed through a city's streets.
From the great imported golden band
chariot to the siren-piped music wagon
on the tail end three miles away, the pro-
cession is one long panorama of novel;
ties, presenting themselves one after an
other in endless variety. Over 1900 peo-
pie, nine herds of elephants, 658 horses
and the finest array of imported foreign
made chariots, cages and floats ever seen
will be presented The parade is abso-
lutely new in idea; it bears the Ringing
Brothers, stamp of excellence and 1t con-
tains nothing that any other show can
offer.
In keeping with this great parade are
the menagerie and the performance.
Novelty and greatness are their terms of
qualification. What is seen under Ringing
Brothers tents this season can be seen
nowhere else. On the day of the show a
downtown ticket office will be located in
the store of the Bartlett Music company,
where reserved seats and admission can
be had at exactly the same price charged
at the ticket wagon.
