ments are now completed to start the
Monarch Mining and Smelling com
pany's new mill, according to the
statement of c. w. Plate, general man

ly after it's installation caused a
years setback in the operation of the
mine. but the company has now ample
finances in it's treasury to prosecute
operations on a more extensive scale
than ever.
Mr.. Plat returned to his camp on
the southbound train last night.

ROBBED OF DOLLAR A DAY
Pretty Girl Complains That Men
Leave Pay Stations She Has
Charge of Without
Paying

At one of the large downtown hotels
recently pretty telephone operator
was sitting at her desk answering a
telephone call.
Near her were several phone booths.
These were all pay stations, the price
for a call being a nickel
A. woman who was talking with the
operator noticed that a man stepped
out of the booth while the latter was
busy on her desk phone, and went
down the street.
AS soon as the operator was through
with her work at the desk she turned
to the woman and asked:
''Didn't one of those men in the booth
step out without paying for his
phone"
"Well, he's another who jumped his
phone BILL" replied the operator.
The woman visitor asked the opera
tor if that sort of thing was customary.
ooh, yes" replied the other. About
twenty times day they go away with
out paying me.
"At five cents apiece that makes
about dollar day which / have to
pay for them"
'Why, do you have to pay it?"
oueried the woman, astoniShed at this
statement.
"Surely," responded the other; IT am
held responsible for this station and !
must pay when they try to skip their
bills"
And the woman who had been visit
ing the hotel exclaimed about the in
Justice of the thing and of what she
thought of men who would try to
cheat young girl out of five cents.

SEWER PROVES INADEQUATE
IN INDUSTRIAL DISTRICT
Break in Alameda Street Underground
Drain Points to Necessity for
Larger Tubes In That
Section

Another break in the Alameda street
sewer is worrying the board Of public
works.
The fracture is at a point below Sew
enth street, and the blame is laid by
complainants on the Bishop & Co. fac
tory.
Discharges of waste matter and
steam from this and other industrial
plants have long pointed to the neces-
sity of a larger sewer in this district,
hence the board members visited the
section yesterday to study the ques-
ton of repairs.
Once before the sewer broke and the
Bishop company officials paid the bill.
President J. o. Koepf1i is inclined to
doubt this time that the company is to
blame for the trouble.
The break extends for sixty feet and
is due mainly to the insufficient dame
ter of the sewer for the amount of
fluid it is expected to drain. 1t will
cost $500 to make repairs.

DOCTOR WARNS AGAINST
TAKING TOO MANY BATHS
Physician Tells Patient That Three
Dips a Day in the Tub Are
Disastrous to
Health

The doctor looked at his patient, who
had stepped into the Office complaining
about that tired feeling"
II reckon it's just spring, doc" re-
marked the unlearned individual, as he
slumped into a chair and sat on the
middle of his spine.
Il can't somehow account for it,
any way 1 put it,"
And the doctor asked him a few
questions.
Like the dartings of a rapier In the
trained hand of fencing master, the
questions pierced the mans habits
through and through. His case was
bit hard to diagnose. Temperate, alb
stemious, careful of his diet-and yet.
withal, certainly played out and
tagged by the time each day closed.
Suddenly the Doctors face lit up with
the pleasure of finding the real cause
of the malady.
80 you take about two or three
baths day. do you? Enjoy them?'
Bet you" replied the patient. They
are everything to me. 1 change my
socks every day of my life and I battle
sometimes three times day."
Battles Too Often
MAKE you feel good. eh?" queried
the physician.
Fine. doc: just fine. Wouldn't miss
my mornin' dip for a dollar And then
l drop in at the club and take a show
er at noon, and often battle before
going out again at night If it's hot
weather, or else when get home again
just before going to bed.'
well, my friend" replied the doctor,
with a decided air and a firm tone of
voice. cleanliness nay be next to
godliness, but you don't want to battle
yourself to heaven. And, tell you,
that's just what one man did of whom
I know. He practically washed him
self to death. He was forever bathing
and soaking HIMSELF That man be-
came what might be called water
logged. He washed himself to death.
OF course, the baths make you feel
fresh for the time being. But too
many of them are not good for you
They are ennervatine when overdone."
And the patient who had complained
of that tired feeling" went away after
promising that one bath a day would
do him hereafter. and that he would
substitute the dry rub down. of the
good old Turkish towel for the other
baths.

BIG CLUBS TO ABIDE
BY PENDING DECISION
COMMITTEE WILL PROBE INTO
LIQUOR RIGHTS
"High Up" Social Bodies Name Men
to Decide on Validity of Law,
and Verdict Will
Prevail

Whether the social clubs of Los An
geles shall continue to dispense liquors
to their members without taking out
retail licenses is the question to be de-
cided by a committee consisting of one
member each from the California,
University, Jonathan and Athletic
clubs. The committee is composed of
Joseph Scott. chairman, California
club; Fielding ]. Stilson, University
club; S. c. Spruance. Jonathon club.
and Frank Garbet. Athletic club. They
have retained as counsel the law firm
of Gibson, Trask. Dunn 81 Crutcher,
who have offices in the Pacific Electric
building.
Some two months ago Prosecuting
Attorney Woolwine notified each of the
clubs that he was about to start a
crusade against the sale of liquor with
out a retail license; that. according to
law. he was forced to include all clubs
addicted to the practice and would
have to proceed against them exactly
as if they We're blind pigs"
1t was his desire to give the clubs
ample time and opportunity either to
take out the required license or cease
the practice altogether. With that he
dropped the matter and went after the
blind pigs
Clubs Get Together
Within the past week Mr.. Woolwine
called up the various clubs to see what
action, If any, had been taken. When
it became evident to the directors of
the clubs he meant business they got
together, with the result that man
from each club was appointed, thus
forming a committee to decide the
question.
AT the office of Gibson, Trask, Dunn
G. Crutcher no one could be seen yes
terday afternoon, but it is understood
that, whatever decision the legal
lights may come to. the clubs will
abide by it. IT,. for instance. in the
opinion of the lawyers. the ordinance is
defective, it will be attacked and, If
possible, set aside. II it is thought the
ordinance does not include, or is not
meant to include, bona f1de social clubs.
they will continue to dispense liquors
to their members.
Mr.. Woolwine admitted he himself
was a director in the University club,
and added, with a smile, IF 1t should
prove necessary 1 will prefer charges
against myself. I am going to see this
thing through to the finish.
According to the law, as read IT.,
a millionaire's club is no more immune
when it comes to selling liquor without
a retail license than the blind pig
patronized by the hod carrier"

VEGETARIAN RESTAURANTS
ALL MOURN 1.-THE JUNGLE
People Who Were Scared by SincIair's
ArraIgnment of the Slaughter
House Are Beef Eaters
Again

There are several vegetarian cafes in
Los Angeles. The proprietor of one of
these was speaking the other day, and
with a sad, dreamy look of reminis-
cence said:
TT was not like this in the olden
days, in the days that are past recall
for sure"
Il refer" he added, 'to the days
when Upton Sinclair wrote THE Jun
gle,' and everybody had a tremendous
fear of meat in them, and they were
trying to avoid all canned meats ana
canned anything else for that matter.
Il remember for time after that
book first came out depicting the hor-
unwholesomeness of meat eating in
general, and when the book could not
be obtained from the public library
without three or four days applica-
ton In advance, that we owners of
vegetarian restaurants had the BUSH
ness of our lives.
"Old boys, you know who would gen.
orally pass up by with guffaw and
go and stuff themselves with enough
steaks and roasts to put them to sleep
for a month, would crowd into our
places and eat the cleanest food they
had partaken of since they were
hungry.
Getting Over the Scare
"They would pucker up their nous
tache and order some cereal which
they hardly knew the taste of, and
would talk all through that first course
on the iniquity of meat eating. Youc
see a copy OF The Jungle peeping ou
of their pockets and then you'd know
they'd been scared into coming to theil
senses.
well, they had the time Of theiI
lives for awhile They would do their
level best to eat decently and avoid
smuggling their system with enough
meat to deaden all their sensibilities
but finally they would have to desist
and go back to the flesh pots of Egypt
About a day they'd be gone, then
they'd come back looking more scared
and worried than ever and eat at the
vegetarian cafe again.
"Oh, it was good hunting for a
time.
But now they say the slaughter
house evils have been eradicated. And
all our portly beef eaters are back to
for our gaining many new converts by
the wholesale, as was the custom then,

might show the futility of trying to
eat nothing but the meat of animals
and we would have full counter ere
