MISTAKEN ZEAL

The people of Los Angeles highly ap-
preciate the good work accomplished
by the Humane society in general and
particularly the jealous efforts of the
society's executive officers. Probably
it is better to err in excessive zeal than
to reach the other extreme of ineffl-
cheney, but is is well to guard against
excess even in the most commendable
work.
Prohibition of the appearance of
young children on the stage is entirely
right as a general proposition. The rule
should not be so rigid, however, as to
admit of no fiexibility whatever. The
purposs of the law applicable in such
cases is to avoid any possible cause of
injury to a child, physically, mentally
or morally, by participating in any
performance on the stage.
A case in point has been called to
public attention in this city by the
announcement of a play to be enacted
here next month involving the appear
Los Angeles herald., 1907-06-13

ance on the stage of several young
children. Mistaking the roles to be
taken by the children. an executive Of
ficer Of the Humane society intimated
a purpose to prevent the appearance Of
the youngsters.
The local theatrical managers gen.
orally, as well as the one directly in
terested, resent such interference on
the ground that the children really take
no part in the play aside from being
present OF the stage as passive spec
tators of acting by adults. The inti-
nation that the managers determined
to challenge the society's legal author
ity in this case is supposed to have
caused an abatement of zeal on the
part of the society's official.
There are plenty of cases in city
like Los Angeles at all times that OBJ
viously call for the good offices of the
Humane society. Such an instance as
the one here noted is likely to be rated
by the public as an example of we'll
meant but misdirected energy.

NO SUCCESSOR TO MRS. EDDY

Los ANGELES, June 11.-[Editor
Herald: The rumor to the effect that
there is strife in the Christian Science
movement concerning leadership, which
has periodically appeared in the public
press, and which has recently been re-
vived, has not become true with age,
but is quite as much a myth now as
it was when first put into circulation.
1t is quite as much out of place to
talk of a successor to the discoverer
and founder of Christian Science as
it is to talk OF a successor to the dis
coverer of America. Moreover there
is nothing in the position of the revered
pastor emeritus of the Christian Science
church which could be succeeded to by
any man or woman. Already Mrs.

THE ANTITRUST LAW

There seems to be a misunderstand-
ing of some sort among the district at
torneys of California with respect to
the rigid enforcement of the so-called
Cartwright antitrust law.
For instance, the district attorney of
Sacramento tells the newspapers of
his city that he is taking no active
steps to enforce the new law, as it is
understood the first tests of the law
are to be made in Los Angeles and
that the district attorneys generally
are looking to this city to start the
ball rolling. He says that Senator
Cartwright is believed to be in con-
ference with the district attorney of
Los Angeles with view of mapping
out campaign Of enforcement, and
that in the meantime other district at
torneys will probably make no move,
except to act upon any complaints that
may be presented.
Thus far there has been no evidence
of any campaign being mapped out in
Los Angeles for the enforcement of the
Cartwright antitrust law. On the
contrary, District Attorney Fredericks
has said to The Herald that he does
not know Senator Cartwright and has
had no conference with him. He also
gives out the astonishing information
that Los Angeles practically has no
trusts.
Los Angeles should be proud of the
TACT, as stated by the district attorney,
that all those alleged conspiracies in
restraint of trade which the unthinking
public had presumed were trusts, had
been either improperly labeled, or else
have melted away at the first touch of
the Cartwright law.
Mr.. Fredericks finds only two sus-
oicious cases and he is not sure
whether the insurance companies and
he biscuit companies are in a trust,
'ut he will find out and let us know.
In the meantime we are utterly at
oss to determine where to put the
'redit for this surprising and agree
lble condition of affairs. The whole
'ity had thought there existed a lun-
Der trust, furniture trust, a grocers
rust, a job printing trust, an insurance
rust and various other unlawful COM
oinations. Now that all these have
Melted away, shall we credit the law
Lbiding promptness of the persons who
lad been engaged in them? Or the eff
'acy Of the Cartwright law in forcing
hem to dissolve? Or the energy and
apability of District Attorney Freder-
cks in discovering their dissolution?
AT any rate, we are pleased to notify
lie district attorney of Sacramento and
III other district attorneys who may be
waiting for the enforcement of the
law in Los Angeles county
hat they needn't wait. There being no
rusts in Los Angeles, there is no need
o appeal to the antitrust law.
Happy Los Angeles

Eddy's teachings have in large
measure become her successor, and she
VIII never be succeeded by anything
else than the spiritual influence she
has planted in human consciousness.
We believe that every Christian Scien-

is not student in this science any
where who has ever dreamed of being
a successor to Mrs. Eddy or has had
the slightest aspiration in that di
rection.

 NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-woe be unto the man who robbed Tom sharkey's villa at sheepshead Bay of all the sll- verware except that marked with Sharkey's name and two of. the works of art executed by old masters.
 Woe be unto him If Tom sharkey gets hold of him. 'T have a clew. 1" said the former pugilist as he watched the cash register in his Fourteenth street liquor store.
 The coward who robbed me had small feet. and he had a pair of new shoes on. As soon as I found I was touched I looked for clews. If see q man with small feet and new shoes and be can't prove that be didn't rob me I'll make q parable that be will new CT rob anybody else.
 Well. I was robbed. and I'd never think It. because all thieves are cow ards, and I didn't think one of them would break into the home of Tom sharkey. If I get hold of the robber I won't turn him over to the police. I'll handle him myself.-

 Thirteenth Round. Britt landed twice with left on the Danes stomach. Then Britt shot fearful left to the stomach and followed 1t with light left to the jaw. Nelson, however, fore ed the fighting. Nelson again almost slipped to his launches, but was quick ly in fighting position.
 Fourteenth Round.--Acting under No lan's instructions, Nelson, with a de- termined expression, forced Britt about the ring. Britt drove Nelson's head back foot with a terrific straight right. Britt then shot his left and right to the face, and they wrestled for moment, during which Nelson gave Britt the elbow and foored him. The crowd yelled its disapproval.
 Fifteenth Round. Nelson followed Britt around the ring and received a hard left to the face. Britt then drove two wicked lefts on the jaw, complete ly turning the Dane around
 Sixteenth Round = Nelson uppercut with right to jaw and then butted with his head The referee pulled the men apart, and Britt swung left to the head.
 Seventeenth Round.-The boxers clos ed in, both holding to some extent. Britt staggered Nelson with a left swing to the jaw, and they clinched. Separating, Britt landed right and left to the jaw and easily avoided the Danes attempt at retaliation.
 Eighteenth Round.-Britt crossed his left tp the ear and shot his right to the nose. A left hook to the mouth again started Nelson bleeding. Britt sent a straight left to the face and then swung his right to the jaw. Nelson forced his man about. only to receive a telling left uppercut to the mouth.
 Nineteenth Round. - Nelson sent Britt's head back with a straight left to the mouth. The crowd hissed Nel- son for what they believed was putting. Nelson forced Britt around, but Britt stopped him with a well directed left and right to the jaw. Finally at close quarters Britt landed right that look cd wicked enough to put out an ordi- nary man. but Nelson never faltered. It was all Britt's round.
 Twentieth Round.-They shook hands and fought hard at close quarters. Nel- son drove a wicked right smash to the jaw. Britt drove Nelson to the ropes with several hard swings. Nelson tot tered about the ring helplessly. Britt went at hls man like a maniac and al- most sent Nelson through the ropes with a right flush to the jaw. The gong rafg at this stage and saved Nell son from certain knockout Nelson went to his corner vomiting, and Britt was given the decision at the end of the round.
