to be considerably in excess of that OF a

CHAUTAUQUA FUNDS

WORK
Despite SmaIlness of Crowd, Attend

Postponed
129 East Third street
Long Beach Office,
Phone--Home 2a7.


LONG BEACH, July T.-Despite the
fears of many that this years Chautau-
qua would not prove a financial success
officers of the association today gave out
a statement to the effect that the season
closed with a balance on hand for the un-
dertaking of the work next year.
The ChautauqUa did not attract sc
large crowd as last year for the reason
that it was not held in the auditorium,
but in a church, where 1t was believed
the acoustics would be better. Other
things tended to discourage the directors
but the assembly proved more successful
than they had hoped for.
The session closed tonight with a lee
ture by Prof James Clement Ambrose
on 1.-The Fool in Politics." The lecture
was both witty and full of sober truth
This afternoon Prof James H. Hyslop
delivered a strong address on the Science
of Psychology"
The various classes concluded their
work today in review and summing up
work which proved interesting and help
full.
Chautauqua will be held again next
year, ard it has been practically decided
to hold the exercises in the auditorium
The election of officers has been post
poned until a later date. The Rev. Ches-
ter P. Dorland, who has served as presi-
dent of the association for two years, has
stated that he will not accept the office
again. Stephen Townsend and w. w.
Lowe arc spoken of for the presidency.
A resolution thanking the Land and
Navigation company for the use of the
Methodist church property was adopted
by the directors of the association.

DOCTORS KILL
SICK HORSES
TRACE GLANDERED ANIMALS AT
REMOTE POINTS
STATE, CITY AND COUNTY MEN
SEARCH IN AUTO
Arrests VIII Follow Today at Instance
Of Veterinarians, Whose Quick
Work Alone Averted Se-
rious Results

After an all-day chase state, county
and city veterinarians yesterday discov-
ered TOUR widely separated glandered
horses and Immediately dispatched two.
They took steps to kill the other two
today after isolating them.
DR.. w. c. Morrison of the state. DR..
w. Il. Rowland of the county and DIR.
Leon W. Young of the city inspection
service covered many miles in an auto
mobile in the chase but by nightfall had
done most of their work
Today two of the men responsible for
the movement of two of the sick horses
will probably be arrested under a misde-
meanor charge.
The statutes plainly provide that every
animal with glanders must at once be
deprived of life by the owner or persons
in whose charge it may be. on informa-
tion or knowledge that it is so afflicted.
Omission of the act of destruction
promptly constitutes a misdemeanor
Inspector Acts Promptly
The first animal found was in the rear
of butcher shop and grocery at First
and Utah streets. the doctors state The
owner had become suspicious of the
symptoms of his sick horse Meat In
-spector John Nelson happened to visit
the shop and when told of the case inn
mediately notified the health office. The
animal was shot
Another infected horse belonging to a
solicitor was found at Forty-first and
Normandie avenue. the owner was noti-
fled to be on hand today, when it will be
killed
The third case was at 2S14 East Elev-
enth street DIR. Young states that DIR.
w. A. Connolly traced the animal there
and found that its owner and a negro
had just disposed of it to another negro
named Ed Ball. The trail was followed
for further evidence
The doctors will trace Ball today and
they say arrests will follow in this case.
Another case involving extra work was
that of a horse belonging to a butcher at
Thirty-eighth and Wall streets. This an
mal was suspected and the tuberculin
test applied. 1t is charged that a rancher
had taken the animal away in the inter
val of the doctors visit. The steed was
finally traced to a ranch half mile be-
yond Manchester and South Park ave-
nues and Immediately killed.
1--WE sometimes find glanders in a herd
where other horses have been infected
because of being in the bunch, but four
so widely remote beats the record" said
Dr. Young yesterday. 1.-THE cases are very
dangerous and we use rubber gloves and
antiseptics freely. The dead animals are
buried deeply and other precautions
taken"
The health authorities congratulated
Drs. Morrison, Young, Rowland and Con-
nelly on their successful work of yester7
day.
