The Birds Knew Him

The death Of Francois Copper in Paris
is announced, He was Il poet, drumntist
and writer Of r%oinanccs. but his best
work was lIis poetry. and nc was held
by the poor Of France in much the same
estimation that BObbie Burns was and
is by the popr Of Scotland. TTc was so
essentially kind that as nc walked
though the Luxembourg Garden the
birds would light on his shoulders and
arms for the crumbs which he always
carried i'll his pockets for them. And
he would talk to them and they would
twittcr back to him and they were all
tenants in common of the Garden as
much as were Adam and Eve and the
birds in the first garden before cruelty
was born into the world.

All of the Imperial Valley towns will celebrate the Fourth of July at Impe- rial this year. This is in accord with plan whereby the towns of the val ley shall take turns in having this an nual patriotic celebration. Indications are good for large assemblage at I'm perial today and the various commit tees have provided an interesting pro gram of events.
 Although it is but little more than two weeks since the ground was broken for Imperiars large new audi torium, a large portion of the building will be enclosed so that it may be used as amusement headquarters for the celebration.
 Congressman s. C. Smith will be the orator of the day. He arrived at I'm perial last evening, having been met at Old Beach by committee from the Republican Central Committee of I'm perial county. This forenoon Congress- man Smith will speak ill the enclosed section of the auditorium, and there will be patriotic music, reading of the declaration of independence and short talks by prominent citizens of the val ley
 The Southern Pacific is to give the people of the valley special service to- day. Extra coaches will be carried by the regular morning train from Old Beach southward; and special train will leave Calexico at 10:30 this fore noon to carry the people from south of Imperial to that town. A special train will leave Imperial at midnight for Brawley, and will double back so as to carry the visitors from south of Imperial to their homes.
 Numerous entries have been made for the horse races. These sports are in the hands of Arthur Edgar At night grand ball will be given on the second floor of the auditorium.

JAP GETS INTO TROUBLE.

W. A. Scase, who has a melon ranch about four miles west of El Centro, on Thursday swore to a complaint of as sault against a Japanese foreman,'H. Yamasopi working with a gang of his countrymen on the Scase ranch. The Jap, with three supporters, appeared at Scase's ranch house Wednesday and demanded money for the payment of himself and all the Jap melon pick CTS. Scase says he told the fellow that he had no money, but would see that he was paid later, whereat the Jap de- clared: You must have that money for me by noon or I will shoot you" The case was tried before Justice Tout at Fl Centro yesterday afternoon and Yamasopi acknowledged making the threats, but said they were just for fun He was sentenced by Justice Tout last evening.

CHINESE CAPTURED.

Immigration Inspectors R. Ames and Chadney and Custom Officer Ralph Conklin captured six Chinamen at Inn perial Junction, Tuesday afternoon, and placed under arrest three Mexi- cans who had assisted the Chinese in getting across the international boun. dary line. Inspector Ames took the entire party to Los Angeles for ap- pearance before the Federal Court Francisco Chaves, one of the Mexicans arrested, has long been suspected of being engaged in smuggling Chinese across the boundary line. His appear ance at the hotel at Imperial Junction to purchase food resulted in his being followed by the inspectors to where the Chinese were hidden in clumps of mesquite about half-mile south of the railroad station.

 This association represents the lead ing papers of the eight counties of Southern California. A personal knowledge of the Imperial Valley ac, quired by visit of the editors to all of the valley towns, will mean much ad- yertising of this country's resources and a more intelligekt handling of news events pertaining to this part of the State
