MILLIONAIRE IS
TAKEN TO COURT
DRAWS HIS REVOLVER ON A
DAIRYMAN
w. H. Foster of Florence Road Admits
Making Threat and Is Placed
Under $500 Bond to
Keep Peace

Dairyman fought millionaire in JUS
ternoon and the dairyman won when
the justice placed w. H. Foster, mil
lionaire, under $500 bonds for six months
to keep the peace and to prevent him
from making any further demonstra-
tion against the director of cows.
There was a striking contest between
the two factions in court yesterday
afternoon when the case was called
Justice Summerfield, in handling his
first criminal case, smiled in judicious
wisdom from his bench while on one
side of the court room we'll dressed
prominent business men, friends of Eos
ter, the millionaire, sat and waited tt
testify in his defense. On the Other
side e. w. Lewis, the complaining
dairyman, clad in overalls, a ragged
COW puncher's hat and a heavy coat OF
tan, was surrounded by a dozen or more
of his followers.
Foster was convicted of making
threats against Lewis. The argument
occurred Wednesday at the Foster field
on the Florence and Compton roads.
According to the statement of Lewis
he had arranged to pasture his COWS OF.
Fosters land for certain sum. Fos-
ter, on the other hand, alleged that his
foreman had arranged with Lewis TO
sell him the cutting from the pasture
for certain sum.
Threatens to Shoot
Not a cent was paid. and wednes-
day when Foster looked from the win
dows of his palatial home and saw
Lewis cows pasturing on his land and
tramping down the alfalfa and causing
general havoc on the property he made
a hurryup run to the scene of action.
Lewis is about three times the size Of
the millionaire mine owner, but Foster
always carries a revolver with him.
Yes, 1 told him that if he didn't get
his COWS off by property 1 would blow
him to HI" testified the millionaire
yesterday in court.
Il always carry gun with me when
/ am in the country, and I was very
angry when 1 saw this man and his
cows destroying my property. l told
him to get off and used some hard
language, 1 suppose, and when he
started toward me 1 drew my gun half
way out of my pocket and told him that
if he started anything he would find
me right there.
when l became clamer put the gun
back in my pocket and walked away
after saw this man drive his cattle off
the field. 1 never intended to shoot
him and never expect to have any
further trouble with him"
Lewis then took the stand and said
he guessed he was pretty scared of
Foster anyhow, even though Foster was
a great deal smaller than he, and he
said that he would feel a gool deal
safer if Foster was under bond to keep
the peace. A bond of $500 was required
and promptly given, and the dairyman
and the millionaire left court and
started back to their homes on the
Florence road.

CHILD WIFE NOT
LEGALLY MARRIED
LITTLE BRIDE IS THIRTEEN
YEARS OLD
Tells Judge She ls Sorry and Was
Led Into Wedlock by an older
Woman's Adviee-oroom
In jail

Little Virginia Spencer. a 19-year-old
child bride, yesterday appeared in de-
! partment of the superior court before
Judge Wilbur, and with many sobs told
the court certain things about incidents
leading UP to the marriage that may
result in the issuance of warrants from
the district attorneys office.
The child bride had much to say re-
garding her marriage, marriage at an
age when most children are playing
with dolls. According to her statement
she was told to marry by a woman who
had been neighbor to her mother for
several months. The woman, accord
ing to the child's allegations, arranged
meetings between her and George Tab
bert, whom she later married. Tabbert
is 21 years of age and stated at the time
of his arrest that he had married the
Spencer girl to get her away from
home, where she was being abused.
Il did not want to get married." said
the sorrowing little bride yesterday in
the juvenile court. II met George some
time ago, and this woman began to
urge me to marry him. She said that
we could have a good time together.
and even before 1 was married lived
with George.
Il didn't want to get married. but
this woman said 1t was best for me
to, and she told me to lie about my
age and wear my mothers long skirts.
took one of mammals skirts from home
and put it on before we reached Santa
Ana, where we secured the license and
were married, and 1 have been sorry
ever since"

200 Egg Hen.

Those who have doubted that there
are such things as two-hundred egg
hens will have to admit that they
exist in considerable numbers il they

egg laying contest These hens were

pen-Black Langshans, the progeny

an average of Ia eggs each during
the year The next two highest pens
were White Leghorns. averaging res.
pectively 239 and 229 eggs each.
The eleven highest pens of 90 birds
averaged over 200 eggs each. While
there was no pen below No. IL that
averaged 200 eggs, the seventeen
highest pens as whole averaged a
little better than 200 eggs for each
hen. The lowest record was l20 and
the average for the 800 birds com
peting III. This was pretty good
laying. but We have farms in Amer
lea where 600 hens are kept and all
owned By one man that exceed this
number One farm in New jersey
secured an average Of 1859 eggs each
from 1000 hens. Many years ago
New York farmer secured al average
of 1876 eggs each from 600 hens, aud
at that time people who dared to
claim that their hens had made re-
cords Of 200 eggs in a year were re-
ferred to as 200 egg liars. There
Is no telling what the possibilities Of

Mile a Minute al Sea.

No little interest has been aroused
among expert engineers and nautical
men b. a new style of speed boat or
gliding craft originated and partially
developed by Mr.. Peter Cooper Hew-
lit. the discoverer of the famous
Cooper Hewett' light. This new
craft is very aptly designated "glid-
ing since it does not cut the water
like other vessels, but actually flies or
skins over the surface, the body Of
the craft being forced high enough to
permit free play of the valves. The
body of the device looks something
like a long, narrow and very shallow
scow. A strong steel frame similar
to that of an automobile extends over
the sides and across either end. From
each corner of the frame there are
dropped into the water perpendicular
steel arms, which extend about Is
inches below the bottom of the scow.
To these arms are fastened steel
planes having a slant upward in front
of about one in eight. The motor Is
set forward and the single screw
turns Just back Of the front set Of
planes. In operation, the screw driv-
ing or pulling the craft forward forces
the slightly slanted planes through
the water aud, on account of their
slant, the craft is forced upward. The
greater the speed the higher the craft
rises When it has reached a speed
which forces the topmost plans out
of the water, part Of the supporting
surface is last and the craft settles
