however, he pointed out that the up

persons capable of making the trip sue

the class to make it his or her deter

but to beware lest, in striving to do so,
they should be diverted to some route
which seemed easier, but In reality did
not lead to the right place at all.

POMONA, June 21.-Residents Of
that district near Claremont, where E..
H. Lemon recently has erected a
handsome new home, are looking for
a tough who visited the place and,
after frightening a painter named
Cheney, who was working there, did
about all the mean little tricks he
could think of. He entered the house
and demanded money and food of
Cheney, but the latter slipped out of
the door and ran to the home of Frank
Wheeler. From there Constable
Slanker of Pomona was telephoned for
and started at once in an auto for the
scene. Meantime the hobo proceeded
to commit deeds of vandalism about
the new home. He first satisfied his
appetite from the painters dinner pail,
then he amused himself by smearing
the white walls with mud, pouring a
cup of stewed Strawberries on the
hardwood floor and cutting Cheeney's
coat into threads.

SANTA MONICA, June 21.-Lottie
Stevens, the 16-year-old daughter OF
Cakes Stevens, who mysteriously dis
appeared Friday night, and for whom
the police of this city have been dill
gently searching, returned to her pa
rents home on Ashland avenue before
daylight this morning. Her mother,
who had not slept since the girls dis
appearance, was up waiting for her.
Miss Stevens would not at first give
any explanation as to where she had
been. She finally said she was down.
cast because her scholarship marks at
the time she was due for graduation
In the Lincoln school in Santa Monica
were low and she did not like to bring
the news of her failure home.
She explained that after she left her
school books at the HOLSTER street
station of the Los Angeles-Pacif1c
railway, where they were afterWard
found, she went down to the ocean and
threw herself under the Bristol pier.
She lay there all Friday night and
Saturday and until the early hours of
Sunday morning. She had only light
clothing on, with not even a hat, and
suffered severely from cold.
In time Miss Stevens grief spent
itself and she decided to return home.
When she arrived there, not more
than a quarter Of mile from where
she had been lying in the sand, she
was bedraggled and sick from expos
ure and exhaustion. Mr.. Stevens. VINO
is connected with the Casino at Ocean
Park, had to wake up a druggist to
get the girl stimulant. Later she was
able to eat some solid food.
Her parents were overjoyed to get
their daughter home again and were
besieged today with anxious inquiries
regarding her. They had positively re-
fused to give any information that
might have led to a discovery of her
whereabouts, further than to furnish
the Santa Monica officers with a de-
scription of her. Their reticence only
made the case seem to be the more
mysterious. Even the officers on the
case could not make out whether there
had been trouble at home and whether
she had been driven to contemplate
suicide through some imaginary trou-
bles.
The officers say they made thor
ough search of the Bristol pier as late
as Saturday night and went over every
foot of sand beneath 1t that was not
covered by tidewater. There was no
trace of any human being in hiding
there The pier was opened to the
public for the season Saturday ana
there was an immense traffic over ana

plain she had suffered severe expos

Ordinarily Miss Stevens disposition

DEMOCRATS HOPE TO ELECT
FULL BOARD OF SUPERVISORS

Special to The Herald
SAN BERNARDINO, June 21.-Con-
siderable interest has been evidenced
on the part of the Democrats as to
nominations to be made by the county
convention, which will convene in this
city next Saturday. Ernest Martin.
for a number of years engaged in the
newspaper business in this city, is
mentioned prominently as a candidate
for the assembly and may receive the
nomination.
For supervisors Judge J. H. West
In the First district and J. B. Glover
in the Third will be nominated, both
now being members of the board, as
they have been for years. The latter
will have no opposition, as the Repub-
licans realize that it will be futile to
attempt to defeat him. they having
vainly attempted to do so several times
before. In the Fifth district S. ".
Horton of Mission probably will be
named, and the Democrats of that dis
trict hope to win and thus gain a
Democratic board of supervisors.
For superior judge there may be no
nomination. Two years ago the Re-
publicans made no nomination against
Judge b. F. Bledsoe, and 1t is prob
able that the Democrats this year will
reciprocate the compliment as to
Judge Oster.
