The ideas regarding a national sanatorium for

deserving they may be, is not a legitimate func

objections would be obviated and benefcent

ASK $1,000, 900 ISSUE
OF GOODROAD BONDS
WORKERS AND OPPONENTS
MAY UNITE
San Hernardino May Vote at Special
Election to Build 1875 Miles of
Highway, Agreeing Upon
Objections
LspeoIl !: to The Herald. ]


SAN BERNARDINO, Sept. 2O.-Al-
ready a movement Ia being taken up
among influential circles in the county
to put another bond issue up to the
people. This time It is believed that
the amount will be made million dol
lars instead of $625,000, as before, and
that it will be planned to build no less
than 125 miles Of road instead of 80
miles.
Several conferences hav@ already
been held between leaders of the oppo-
sition to the former issue and men who
are interested in seeing a bond issue
voted, and 1t has been found that q
common ground can be reached. With
that In view the matter will be taken
up, and 1t Is. more than possible that
before the winter Is over another cleo
ton will be held for voting million
dollar bond issue.
The defeat of the former bond plan
has stirred the good roads enthusiasts
In the county to even greater action,
and they believe that success will re-
ward their efforts. as the objections to
the former plan will be avoided A
change of 425 votes on the former cleo
ton would have carried for the bonds,
and 1t is thought that by reaching an
agreement with the influential oppo-
nents of the plan the bonds can easily
receive the desired vote.

JAPANESE CAPTURED
AFTER WEARY CHASE
Was Traced TO Native Land, Thence
to Alaska, and Finally Taken
Into Custody at AS
toria, Oregon

Seven months after the murder of T..
okazaki in restaurant at 211 North
San Pedro street T. Ito, the alleged
murderer, has been captured. The
chase ranged over several thousand
miles. to japan and thence to Alaska.
Ito will be brought to Los Angeles
Wednesday from Astoria, Ore.
Accused was located on the Alaskan
coast. 1t was then learned that he in
tended to sail for Portland on the
steamer Berlin, which was due in that
city September IL. The police of Port
land were notified by the local detec-
tive bureau and they In turn wired the
police at Astoria, where the Berlin
made her first stop in the United
States. Ito was arrested and held at
Astoria, while Detective Ziegler of the
central station was sent for him. Con-
siderable delay was experienced in get
ting out extradition papers, as the wit
nesses to the murder have become
widely separated.
7. Okazaki was shot three times and
instantly killed February 4. Accord
ing to witnesses Ito, a gambler. fired
the shots. Olkazaki was a prosperous
man and owned lodging house at 125
Vine street. 1t Is said that Ito APP
preached Okazaki for loan of money,
and on refusal shot him down.
Ito made his escape from the city,
and since that time has been traced
from one city to another. He was cap
tured finally, partly through the eff
forts of Thomas White. a Japanese in
terpreter. Ever since the crime White
has kept in touch with the witnesses.
two of whom are now In San Francis
co, while one Is In Fresno.

BOYS WILL ESTABLISH
THEIR OWN CLUB HOUSE
First Steps Taken by Fitting Social
Roor1pin Congregational Church
as Substitute for Pool
Rooms

PASADENA Sept. 20.-Progress
toward the formation OF large neign-
borhood institutional club for boys IN
the eastern part of the city was made
yesterday when the boys brigade OF
the Lake Avenue Congregational
church, now numbering sixty eight
members, fitted UP the social hall OF
the church for a club room.
Books, papers and large assert
ment of magazines have been secured
as well as. many games. It is the IN
tention to secure gymnastic apparatus
as soon as possible.
This step is but a preliminary 10 a
larger plan. formed at the time the age
limit for boys entering pool rooms was
raised here. At that time 1t was de-
cided to fit out the large parish house
of the church as neighborhood clup.
The time is not deemed quite ripe yet
for this step, and the smaller Begin
ming has been made. The committee in
charge, consisting of Mrs. Mary CO.
man. G. G. Jenkins and Edward Pick
ering, states that the larger project
will be taken up soon.
The pastor of the church, Rev.
James III. Lash, isl now In correspond
ence with leaders of the playground
wopJx in Los Angeles, and one of these
will be secured to give public lecture
on the subject, illustrated with
stereopticon views, in the near future.

MANY ENTRIES CAUSE LACK
OF ROOM AT FLOWER SHOW

PASADENA, Sept. 2O.-Although the
fall flower show is month away, and
entries do not close until two days be-
fore 1t opens, a remarkably great NUM-
Der of applications have already been
made, according to the president, John
Blake. The dates for the show are
October 22, 23 and "a.
The exhibition will be held some-
where on West Colorado street. al
though the Gardeners association,
which gives the show, has not yet been
able to secure a definite location.
President Blake says his greatest fear
is lack of room. Two classes which
have been prominent in former years,
groups of palms and table decorations,
have been ruled out because they take
up too much room.
The specialties this fall will be dah-
las and chrysanthen1ums, although
every variety of flower will be Wei
coined, and prizes given to all. me
display of chrysanthemurns, 1t Is SAID,
will be surprising.
Cash prizes to professional exnipi-
tors will be abandoned this year, as II
has been thought to create some dis
satisfaction in the past Certificates
will be substituted. Numerous novel;
ties are promised for the show. and IT
Is announced that any neritorious ex-
hibit win be given prize, no mater
whether any provision Is made Tor II
on the program.

Especial to The Herald. ]

PASADENA, Sept 20.--Bearing the

the hands OF City Clerk William L. Cox
of South Pasadena, asking that an
election be called to vote for the an
nexation of a triangular strip of land

ingly could not be followed.
1t will be several weeks before the
