BOY SHOOTS STEPFATHER

Boss of Smelzer Beet-Topping Crew

Special to The Herald

Special to The Herald
SANTA ANA, Aug. 25-Julian
Paran, boss of a beet-topping crew
employed by the Golden West Celery
company at Smelzer, is in the Santa
Ana hospital with a gunshot wound in
his back and another in his breast, and
Alfonso Salazar, the 15-year-old lad
responsible for the shooting, has so
far evaded arrest.
The shooting took place last night
at Ocean View, nine miles from here,
as the result OF an alteration over the
payment of wages due Salazar. Paran,
who is the lads stepfather, it is
claimed, refused to give Salazar all
that was coming to him. A wordy
war followed and when this had
ouieted down Salazar went into an
inner room and reappeared with a
double barreled shotgun. which he
turned on Paran, the fist shot taking
effect in the latter's breast and the
next in the back. Word was sent to
the sheriff and the wounded man was
brought here and placed in the hos
pital. where examination showed that
while dangerously hurt he will prob
ably recover.
Paran's first story was that Salazar
had been handling the gun which had
been discharged accidentally. The fear
of death later made him tell another
tale. which sent the sheriff after Sal
azar, who had fed, however, before the
officer arrived.

SAN BERNARDINO, Aug. 25.-The
fire on the San Bernardino mountains
has been checked along its western ad-
vance. but to the east the flames have
ragged furiously most of the day, the
rangers and their aids winning the
first signal victory shortly after 2
o'clock, when, in the face of high
wind. they prevented the flames cross
ing the crest.
It was a battle royal for a time, the
wind finally coming to the aid of the
fighters, and at A o'clock word was re-
ceived that for the present the danger
of a crest fire has been checked, though
the flames have now rolled to the fire
break along the ridge over the santa
Ana canyon, and if not stopped here
damage may be caused the power COM

The Brookings telephone line from
Redlands to the summit at F'redalba
went out during the night. Addi-
tional forces were hurried to the sum-

ent time there seems little probability
that the flames will get into Santa Ana

encouraging.

LAST NIGHT
Banquet Follows Initiation, and
Speeches on Principles of Union
ism Are Made by Leading
Labor Men

One hundred and fifty new members
were initiated into the Carpenters

at one of the largest meetings ever held
by that organization in Los Angeles.
Carpenters in this city, the union Of

dition by affiliating with that body.
Following the ceremonies admitting
the new members the union ad-
journed to the large BANQUET hall
where seats to a number of i,,,s, iong
tables were soon filed. The hall
was filled to it's capacity and the en-
thuSiaStic workmen were soon busilv
engaged in Saving and cutting the
edibles that were placed before them.
While they were eating an orchestra
furnished the latest selections, and w,
Howe rendered several appropriate
selections.
After the last course had been served

addressed the assemblage. He spoke
earnestly and convincingly and placed
facts and figures plainly. He reviewed
the world of labor and showed the

PLUM3MING QUESTION NOW
SUBSIDIES FOR A TIME
Vexed Question Regarding Pasadena
Schools Causes Reversal of Coun-
clPs Ordinances and Sharing
Of the Blame
Special to -hs Herald.

Special to -he Herald.
PASADENA, Aug. 25.-After an un-
usually lively session the city council
this morning voted to allow the con-
demned plumbing at the high school to
remain in two years longer. and that at
Mckinley school one year more. Coun-
Gilman c. ]. Crandall alone dissented
from the vote, which was made upon
recommendation of Councilman III. G..
Cattell
BY this action the council goes di-
rectly counter to it's own ordinances.
Plumbing Inspector A. c. Shaver gave
formal notice that he would not as
sumo the responsibility of allowing
the plumbing in question to remain, in
the face of the existing ordinances, and
the council had some difficulty in fix
ing the responsibility.
Mayor Farley tried 10 make the
board of health responsible for the
violation of the ordinance, but failed.
Councilman Mersereau then offered to
assume it, and Councilman Cattell
added that he would take his share.
The question vas allowed to rest with
this curious arrangement.
Plumbing Inspector Shaver made a
vigorous demand that the vents in the
basement, which are stopped up, should
be changed. He said it could be done
before the opening of school at cost
of not more than $500.
Superintendent of Schools A. l..
Hamilton protested against such a step,
but the council this time upheld the
inspector and ordered the change
made.
Another act of the council, which is
of considerable Importance, also con-
Germs the plumbing ordinance. The
city attorney was instructed to draw
up an amendment to that ordinance
which will allow two houses to be con-
nected with the same sewer. 1t was
specified that permission to do this
should be at the discretion of the coun-
ell. This will mean a large saving in
expense for persons allowed to take
advantage of it. The plumbing in
spector pointed out, however. that it
will be impossible to fix the blame in
case the sewer is allowed to become
plopped
