football rallies glee club tours, etc, but
surely the extreme was reached MONDAY
night. when their special car, which mao
haen sidetracked at Oxnard, was entered
bv a hand of about twelve hoboes who
insisted on staying there for the night.
All the efforts of the brakeman and
one or two of his assistants seemingly
could not dislodge these WHY people,
Having entered they INTENDED having one
good, comfortable nights lodging.
When they were finally taken out one
of the fellows had the key In his boot,
evidently thinking to overtake them al
the next stop.
The enthusiasm of the many college
boys and girls who are now in Los An
peies during the Xmas vacation is grow
ing day by day as the Glee club boys
travel nearer. Bringing with them as
they do the De Koven club and the Elks
quartet of Berkeley, two of the mos'
popular organizations of the bay, the In
terest is sure to be intense.
Ii will be remembered that at the time
of the Taylor campaign In Frisco the
DeKoven club was chosen to sing at the
last monster rally at Dreamland rink,
where II 900 people were assembled and
where the club itself aroused almost as
much enthusiasm as the meeting itself,
owing to its well trained voices and roll
licking songs.
Two concerts are to be given here, one
in Los Angeles on next Monday night ana
the other at Pasadena on next Tuesday
evening The Los Angeles sale of tickets
will be at the Bartlett Music company.

MAYOR SIGNS FOUR
LATE-M- YEAR LAWS
HOLDS OVER SIGN ORDINANCE
FOR CONSIDERATION
Approves Conduit Extension Delay,
Health Office Reduction, Sewage
irrigation and New High Street
Wire Measures

Mayor A. C. Harper yesterday signed
the conduit extension. health department
retrenchment, New High street wires
and sewage irrigation ordinances, but
withheld his signature from the signs
ordinance until after New Years.
The conduit extension bill gives the
public utility companies years grace
in constructing new conduits because of
the difficulty in financing enterprises of
this character.
The New High street ordinance takes
telegraph and other wires off that street
beyond Temple street, opposite the site
of the new postoffice. If left there the
wires would mar the appearance of the
buildings facade.
The health department reduction ordin-
ance cuts six men off the rolls. 1t is be-
lieved that the positions will be filled
again shortly-as soon as the city 8
finances ease up some.
The sewage ordinance permits the use
Of sewage for irrigation in restricted
district south of Los Angeles for the
purpose of testing whether it can be ap-
piled to alfalfa without any inconvenience
from odors or otherwise to surrounding
property owners. The ordinance specifies
that the sewage must be used only for
alfalfa and will be rescinded if the ex-
pertinent proves Objectionable.
Mayor Harper said last night that he
believed that some concessions had been
made in the swinging electric sign fea-
ture, and he was inclined to favor the
new ordinance, even though 1t did not
grant all that he wished for.
