|NEWSOF TH[ COURTS i1 a
COURT MAY ALLOW
Her TO KEEP CHILD
LITTLE HELEN KRESSLER Is
LIKELY TO REMAIN HERE
Judge BordweII Intimates Mothers
Conduct Has Been Such That She
is Entitled to the Custody
of Daughter

That little Helen Bashford Kressler
will not be returned to her father,
william Bashford, of Fort Wayne,
Ind, was indicated yesterday by Judge
Bordwell of the superior court, before
whom the child appeared on habeas
corpus proceedings.
The case will come UP again this
morning, when it is expected the court
will render a final decision. Mrs.
Kressler was divorced from her hus-
band in Indiana and at that time an
order was made instrucing the mother
not to remove the child from the juris-
diction of the Indiana court. She
evaded this order bringing the girl to
Los Angeles and remarrying after her
arrival here. The Indiana court then
awarded the custody of the child to her
father, who made a long search for the
little one. When he found her in this
city proceedings were Immediately be-
gun for her return, but, as intimated
by Judge Bordwell yesterday, even If
the mothers action in removing the
child was not approved by the Indiana
court her conduct later might have i'm
proved sufficiently to warrant her being
given charge of her daughter.

LANGUAGE USED, BUT
NOT BY THE HUSBAND
DEFENDANT MERELY CARRIED
PIECE OF GAS PIPE
Justice Pierce Dsmsses Complaint of
Frightened Water Company Ems
ployes, as the Woman Did
the Talking

A charge of threats, using abusive
language and disturbing the peace ter
minated yesterday in the dismissal by
Justice Pierce of q complaint against
w. M. Cinnanond, who lives on In
diana avenue after it was shown that
Mrs. Cinnamond had merely expressed
a natural and wom&nly desire to sit
down and talk matters over with w. J.
Mitchell, an employe OF the Los An
geles Water company.
Cinnamond objected to the installa-
ton of a meter at his home on the
ground that he was paying for the
water and should not be charged Tor
the placing of the meter. Mitchell kept
at his work until the appearance of
Mrs. Cinnamond, who sat down on the
small excavation made by Mitchell and
wanted to talk matters over" she
was reinforced by her husband, who
used q lengthy piece of gas pipe as a
walkingstick. Whether it was this
object or Mrs. Cinnamonds persuasive
words that had the desired effect was
not learned. Anyhow, Mitchell and his
helper picked up their tools and made
their way to the court house, where a
complaint was issued through the dis
trict attorneys office for Cinnamond's
arrest.
Cinnamond endeavored to execute a
brilliant flank movement on his accuser
by trying to secure the services of JUS
tice Pierce as his attorney, and was
much chagrined when the latter ex-
planned the impossibility of acting in
other than his judicial capacity. How
ever, that made little difference, as
Cinnamond was discharged after the
justice had heard the evidence, which
showed the language complained of was
uttered by Mrs. Cinnamond and that
its character did not at all resemble
the dulcet tones OF her voice when
giving her testimony.

LABOR DAY PROGRAM WILL
AMUSE MANY AT CHUTES
Thousands Will Witness the Athletic
Events and Contests, for Which
Prizes in Labor Temple
Stock Are Hung Up

Union labor officials are going ahead
with the program for the Labor day
festivities on the theory that the crowd
at Chutes park will be the largest In
Labor day history.
From 10000 to $4,000 union men with
their families and friends are expected
on September Z, and from 10 in tho
morning till midnight there will be
something doing in all sections of the
big park.
Prizes amounting to 5000 in stock OF
the Labor Temple association are to be
hung up as inducements for athletic
excellence in the outdoor events. The
unions contribute everything, no solic-
itation having been done among mer-
chants.
The morning baseball game between
the teams of the Building Trades coun-
ell and the Laundry Workers will be
for prize of $50 in stock in the temple
Beginning at 1:30 there will be ar
afternoon carnival of sport, the boys

SAYS EASTERN FARM WAS
MISREPRESENTED IN DEAL
Agent for Owners of Los Angeles Lots
Asks That Exchange TRANSACT
ton Be Declared Null
and Void

So many complaints filed in the SUI
perior court charge persons disposing
of real estate with fraud that it is not
only out of the ordinary, but perhaps
refreshing, to discover an instance
where conditions are reversed and the
man from the east emerges from one
of the transactions perfectly satisfied
with himself.
This appears to be the case as re-
CARDS a suit filed yesterday, in which
Jacob Goldfiam, acting as agent for
Annie Goldf1am and n. Kaufman,
traded number of lots valued at $4,000,
he says, to w. R. Dykeman of Clinton,
N. Y, for a 92-acre farm near that
place. Substantial buildings on the
farm were thrown in, as were also fifty
chickens, hog and some other things.
Goldham says $3.50 was spent in the
trip made to the Empire state by his
clients. When they reached Clinton,
he says, they discovered the farm had
been leased until April next and that,
instead of being worth $4,000, the place
in reality would be hard to dispose of
for $500.
He asks to have the transaction set
aside, or, failing that, judgment of
$6500. together with expenses, paid him.

NEGRO UNFOLDS TALE
OF POLICE GRAFT TO
STARTLED SERGEANT
Saws PatroIman Tried, Convicted and
Fined His Friend-Story Proves
to Be Product of Vivid
Imagination

cam dis de place whar a pusson
sustains inflammation" inquired a
young negro of Desk Sergeant Haupt
at the central station yesterday. u
hab a scandalous story to tell if dis
am de proper place."
Sergeant Haupt told the excited
African to tell his story.
Law sakes," said the talebearer, lit
am awful. De graft in dis police de-
partment am abnormal. A fren' oh
mine was arrested by a big policeman
just while ago and fined 81 right on
the sidewalk. What L wishes to in
quire to ascertain Is If q policeman
has de legalized right to hold court on
de street. 1 know it is de trufe, TO
seed my fren' Immediately after he
paid his fine, TO- he borrowed de money
frum me-"
The idea of such unprofessional con-
duct on the part of a patrolman
shocked the sergeant so that he loosed
his grip and dropped to the floor an Ell
CABBAGE cigar that had been given him
by Alfred Trident of the S. P. c. A.
Boy" said the sergeant in cold and
steely tones, how dare you unfold a
tale of such terrible import. Get thee
hence to the captains office and whis-
per your vile Matchmaking yarn to the
lieutenants private secretary. But be-
ware and never breathe word of
your tale to anyone else under pain of
being thrown into the dungeon and
eaten by woozy bugs. Begone, base
villain; hurry beyond the range of
mine vision" The sergeant waved his
hand dramatically then sauntered to
his desk and consumed the remainde;
of an over-ripe cheese sandwich He
was overwhelmed. Even the loss OF
the excellent cigar was nothing to the
story of the African.
The negro entered the office Of the
captain and told his story. He de-
clared that he saw his friend arrested
by patrolman for violating the traf-
fic ordinance Later his friend came
to him and said the policeman had
fined him 81 and wanted to borrow that
amount.
DE policeman said to nah fren
'Niggah you is fined $25. / is de court
OBJ the las retort.' My fren' declared
he did not hab a cent. Dey walked Il
block furder an de policeman say:
Dis am your first defense. All reduce
fren' comes in and borrows de money
frum me-"
The police were astounded at the
story, but after they had put several
questions to the talebearer he admitted
that he had drawn on his imagination
and all that he knew about the affair
was his friend had borrowed the money
to pay fine.
The police at first could not under
stand why the negro wanted to tell
such story They soon learned that
his reason was because he was afraid
the friend would not pay the money,
and thought if he told the tale about
the patrolman holding court on Il
street corner perhaps the police would
refund the dollar.
The negro was warned never to re-
peat the experiment He left the sta
ton in a great hurry.
John Mccoy was the man who paid
the 81 fine for violating the traffic or
dinance. He did not have the money
and was allowed to go and borrow it.
He secured it from his friend returned
to the court and paid.
