SCIENTISTS OF SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA FORM SOCIETY
New Association Organized to Keep
Teachers and Others Informed
on Scientific Progress of
the World

The scientists of Southern California
have formed a permanent organization
under the name Of The southern Gail
fornia Science Teachers association.
The first meeting of the new Asso-
citation was held last Saturday IN the
Chamber of Commerce building, ana
Prof. w. A. Fiske of Occidental col
lege was elected president, with Prof.
H. T. Clifton of Throop college secre-
tary. Prof. Munroe of Whittier col
lege and Prof Daniels of Long Beach
high school were appointed on the eX-
ecutive committee, and Prof. Anderson
of Occidental academy was placed on
the committee permanently.
The object of the society is to keep
teachers and others dealing with
scientific work we'll informed on all
that is going on in the scientific world.
A similar society has been in existence
for some time in San Francisco. and
the results obtained by that organiza-
ton led the men Of Southern California
TO take this step; some of the mem
hers of the new society being members
of the older organization in San Fran
cisco.
To Prof. F'iske of Occidental belongs
the credit of having formed the club,
for he has been working out plans for
il for more than a year. President
Baer of Occidental has invited the
TWENTY-FIVE members of the organ1Za-
ton to hold their next meeting at DC
cidental college, and it probably viii
he held some time during the first part
of December. At that time all neees-
sary steps will be taken for complet-
ing the organization.

~TEDDY'S EYE KNOCKED
OUT WITH BIG STICK"
BUT HE'S ONLY A DOG
Testimony of Witness in Quarrel Over

of an Accident In the

Teddy had his eye knocked out
when he was struck with a big stick,
was the statement of Leonard Van
Wetzel In Justice Selph's court yester-

startling words suggested a boomerang

wieIder of the famous instrument.
But in this case Teddy is dog,
little fox terrier, whose bark aroused
the ire of William L. Holmes, neigh
bor of Leonard Van WetZel, owner OF
the dog. The trouble occurred Wednes-
day at Willowbrook, which is located
in a zone of discomfort and neighbor-
hood quarrels. Van Wetzel, when ne
reached home, found the dog lying, ap-
parently dead, in the front yard he
picked it up and, going to Holmes
house, told the latter the same treat
ment should be melted out to nm
Holmes says Van Wetzel threatened TO
'lay for him" some dark night ana
kill him. He had the dog owner ar

Van Wetzel denied making the threat.
Holmes was not aggressive in his tes-
timony. and seemingly wished the
whole matter could be amicably settled
out of court. Mrs. Holmes and MRS
van Wetzel, however. had different
ideas and expressed them with no lit
tie degree of heat. AS the two women
have not been on friendly terms for
sometime, and the court evidently pc
lieved the whole trouble lay in TINS
fact. the case was continued until sat

From the earliest days of the ring the

TRIES TO SHOOT
S.P.C.A. OFFICER
FRIEND OF ANIMALS FIRED ON
FROM AMBUSH
WOMAN ASSOCIATE ALSO IN DAM
GER BY BULLET
Representatives of Society Go to Yer.
dugo Canyon to Exhume Horse to
Furnish Evidence in
Cruelty Case

Mrs. Sarah Eppinger of Glendale and
S. p. c. A. officer II. j. Stilwell were
fired on from ambush yesterday after
noon while exhuming the body of
horse on the property of Fred Verdugo,
in Verdugo canyon, and had narrow
escape from injury. A bullet from
high-power rifle struck the ground
nearby, glanced and buried itself in the
loose earth at their feet
Stilwell believes the bullet was in
tended for him and the shooting was
deliberate attempt to kill him.
According to Alfred Trident of the
S. p. C. A., who is investigating the
shooting, it is a result of a case of
cruelty to animals, filed in township
Justices court ten days ago, when
Fred Verdugo vas arrested by officer
Stilwell for permitting a horse, with
a broken leg, to go unattended for
thirty-six hours, thereby causing the
animal great suffering and rendering
the death of the horse necessary.
Verdugo was arraigned in court. He
pleaded not guilty to the charge and
asked for a jury trial. The case was
set for next week and officer Stilwell
who had killed the injured animal and
buried it, visited Glendale yesterday
for the purpose of exhuming the car
cass and securing the broken leg for
evidence
Upon his arrival at Glendale he went
to the home of Mrs Eppinger, life
member of the S. p. c. A. She drove
him to the place the animal was buried.
Stilwell was removing the earth to get
at the carcass and Mrs. Eppinger was
standing nearby. Suddenly both were
startled by the report of a gun and
bullet struck the ground near them
and buried itself in the earth at Still
wells feet
Both glanced in the direction where
the sound came and Stilwell declares
he saw a man disappear behind near
| by hill.
last night, Manuel Verdugo stated the
shot probably was fired by hunters, OF
whom there are several in that vicinity.
He scouts the idea any attempt was
made to kill the S. P. G. A. officer.

vote of the seven members present in

an ordinance which shall provide for
submitting the amendments to popu-
lar vote In addition to the amend
ments contained in the petition of the
Municipal league, which petition was
reported to the council yesterday the
council will suggest several
y An effort was made by Joseph H.
Bell to obstruct the passage of resolu-
tions. Bell presented a protest to the
council. signed by himself alone, iii
which he declared the petition as pre-
sented to the council was not similar
In every particular as that presented
for the signatures of electors.
He referred to a letter, attached TO
each Individual petition, and addressed
to the voters in which synopsis or the
proposed amendments was given. 10
read the petition itself would nave
taken at least fifteen minutes of every
signer's time and the synopsis was
made to give the people an idea OF
what the petition contained without SO
much time being consumed by read
ing 1t.
When the petition was presented to
the city clerk for verification this
synopsis was removed and only the
formal petition presented.
The city attorney ruled the synopsis
was not a part of the petition and that
as the names were attached to the petit
tion itself and not the synopsis Mr..
Bells contention of fraud would not
hold.
He further held that as Bell had not
signed the petition his protest had no
standing with the council, as the only
protestants who could be recognized
were those who had signed the petition,
and as no one who had signed had
filed a protest the council did not give
Bells protest very much consideration.
The council meets again this morning
to hear the Grand avenue opening and
widening case, and will adjourn from
day to day until the city attorney can
prepare the amendments the council
will submit and complete the ordinance
for calling q special election.
It probably will require week to
get all these matters in shape, and then
sixty days must elapse before the date
of the election. Notwithstanding these
necessary delays there will be plenty
of time to present the amendments to
the state legislature at it's next session
for action.

Southern Pacific Loses Suit

LOUISVILLE, Nov. 16.-County
Judge Arthur Peter today handed
down an opinion in the long standing
litigation of the commonwealth against
the Southern Pacific company involv-
ing taxes on 100000 worth of property.
Judge Peter decides the cases for taxes
for 1907 and 1908 to the effect that the
franchise tax assessed by the state
board of valuation and assessment
covers all the intangible property; that
the company must pay taxes in Ken
lucky and that the county board of
equalization cannot assess intangible
property. On the second question
Judge Peter holds that steamship
holdings of the defendant company
which are set out by name in the suit
and which aggregate $S,0OO,000 in value,
are taxable in Kentucky and must be
paid here.
