Although only seven bills were passed
at the special session, the time re-
quired for publication will be almost
as long as that required for publishing
the acts of regular session. More
than 10000 copies will be published
and while the work of printing will
not amount to much, 1t will require just
as much time to bind 10000 small vol
umes as it would to bind as many large

SPECIAL DONATION
FOR A VETERAN

TUBERCULOSIS
Associated Charities Asks Aid for
Young Man Who Can Be Cured
with Immediate Treatment.
Needs Outside Work

Special donations to make up $40 a
month are asked by the Associated
Charities, to pay for the treatment OF
Michael J. Crane, a Philippine veteran,
at the Barlow sanitarium. DR.. Barlow
says the young fellow, who is but 30
years of age and unmarried, can be
cured now, since he is in but the first
stage of tuberculosis.
1--WE would like to send him there on
the county's expense, only that is
strictly forbidden by law" said one of
the officers, speaking of the case yes
terday. 1.-THE fact is, Mr.. Crane came
from Lowell, Mass, originally, where
he enlisted in the army. After serving
in the Philippines, he returned to the
Pacific coast, worked at Berkeley, Cali
fornia, was taken down with typhoid
and came out too soon, with the result
that he contracted tuberculosis.
HE wants ranch work, where he can
get outdoor exercise-being a teamster
by trade-and where he can also ge'
plenty of milk and eggs, which he
needs. But after 1 sent him to local
hospital. and afterwards to DR.. Bar
low, I found that the only thing for the
.
DR.. Barlow's for a month for treat
ment, and fight off the malady. Born
in Ireland he is naturally strong,
healthy man, and would soon become
well again If properly treated in time.
DR. Barlow says he can be cured now,
whereas later, you know, when the
disease has gotten a hold on him, 1t
will be far more difficult to heal him.
He is not a resident of this county,
so we cannot out of our regular funds
aid him. But # those interested in the
Associated Charities would but sub
scribe to a special fund for his benefit,
we would pull him through all right.
1 know we wilt for our friends will
help u.s.
So many cases are being investigated
by the society that the officers have to
keep a waiting list" who are fed at
lie Associated Charities expense until
their needs are thoroughly examined
into, to find if they are worthy or not.
Sometimes it happens that those thus
supported for days are not really wer-
thy of assistance, but the society gives
them the benefit of the doubt"

mont of Attorney

When the cases of the twenty-five
men charged with election frauds in
the recent Ocean Park disincorpora-
ton election were called in Judge Con-
rey's court yesterday on a motion to
quash the indictments returned by
the grand jury, Attorney e. A. Me-
serve, representing the indicted men,
requested a continuance of the hear
ing the time as 10 o'clock Thursday,
All members of the grand jury will be
in court at that time. as will the de-
PENDANTS.
Counsel for the defendants had pre-
pared motions to set aside the in
dictments in each case and these were
ready to be presented to the court
yesterday should continuance not be
granted, but Attorney Meserve stated
that certain information had come to
him within the last twenty-four hours
which made 1t important that other
allegations should be incorporated
and 1t was in order to do this that
further time was requested.
The information. he said, was Of
such a nature that he hoped to be
able to file challenges to the grand
jury and to the members of that body
as individuals on the ground that they
were of prejudiced minds when the
| indictments were returned.
1t was also learned yesterday that
the defense will make an attack or
the appointment Of G. Ray Horton
as deputy district attorney, on the
ground that the appointment was ir-
regular in some respect.

EXPERT TO LECTURE ON
SUCCESSFUL SALESMANSHIP
Subject Is Now Being Taught in Many
Schools and Course of Instruc-
ton Has Been Arranged
by Y. M. c. A.

Although courses in craftsmanship
are comparatively new in this coun-
try, they have long been recognized
as an important factor of education
in other lands, particularly in Ger
many.
The idea that any man can be a
successful salesman is no longer held
by practical business men, and with a
knowledge of the fact that salesman
ship is q science and is governed by
laws. which can be learned and ap-
piled by any man of average intel
ligence, schools of craftsmanship are
springing up all over the country.
One of the most successful of these
schools has been held for the last two
years at the Young Mems Christian
association, with Walter Gould Lin
coin as instructor. Mr.. Lincoln has
had over eighteen years of successful
experience in craftsmanship, and hence
is no mere idle theorist.
The Young Mems Christian asso-
citation extends an invitation to every
business man in the city to hear Mr..
Lincoln lecture tonight at the asso-
citation rooms, at 8 o'clock, when he
will demonstrate his method of in
struction and explain the benefits OBJ
tanned by study of this science.

day; this phone business Is too

some important case, when the phone
rings. OF course, we have to go.
There's no getting around that. We

woman's voice squeaking out over
the wire some complaint about the

SUPERVISORS ACCEPT
The HIGHEST OFFER
NEW CELLS TO BE INSTALLED AT
COUNTY JAIL
Bid Is Accepted Only After Warm Dis
cussion Among Members of
Board and Representa-
tlves of Firms

Work on the interior of the county
iail for the purpose of making more
cell room, will begin shortly bids Tor
the erection of two tiers of cells hav-
ing been accepted by the board OF SUI
pervisors yesterday.
Five bids were received, two of which
were lower than the one accepted. "A
decision was reached only after warm
discussion among the members OF the
board and the agents of the firms who
wished to do the work.
The Pauly Jail Building company
offer of $27,S13 was finally agreed upon,
the lower bids of the Stewart Jail
Works company of $21,426 and the I'm
ion Iron company of $22,96S being
turned down.
This action was taken following the
statement of Sheriff w. A. Hammel'
who said that while he did not wish to
influence the judgment of any of the
members of the board, he personally
believed the system used by the Pauly
company was the more acceptable, as
that system Is now in use in the jail
snd therefore az extension OF 1t would
not cause the Inconvenience which
might naturally ensue were TWO ull-
ferent systems used.
Four bids were also received for safe
to be placed in the county treasurer
office. The successful bidder in this
case was the Sweetser & Baldwin Safe
company, for $3.50.
The board instructed the firm OF
Hudson & Mursell. architects, to pre-
pare and submit plans for new hall
