FALSE ENGLISH HEIR
MULCTS WEALTHY MEN
Obtains Money for Drawing Plans
Which He Does Not Execute.
Pleads Guilty to
Charges

d. B. June pleaded guilty in Police
Justice Fredericksons court yesterday
to three charges OF, obtaining money
under false pretenses and will appear
for sentence this morning. he was
sent back to Jail without benefit OF
bail.
June is said to have been operating
in Los Angeles for the last eight
months and to have defrauded num-
Der of persons by his methods OF Sc
curing money.
According to the police, his system
was to represent himself to wealthy
persons as being a member of rich
and aristocratic English family ana
claim to be an heir to considerable
money and property. Then, after get
ting into their confidence, would say
that he was an architect and designer
of fine residences and secure money
for plans which he promised to exc
cute. Several prominent Angelenos
are said to have lost money by this
scheme.
A short time ago June is said to
have ordered $500 worth of furniture
from a local firm. The goods We're
taken to a house designated by june
but when the merchants saw there
was no possibility of being reimbursed
the furniture was returned to the store.

noon at a rooming house at 2So South
Hill street on complaints issued by
Deputy District Attorney Paul Nc

CHINESE, Indifferent
TO PAIN AMAZES DOCTOR
Lew Cow, Chinese Vegetable Ped
dIer, Severely Injured in Runaway
Accident, Gives No Indication
of Suffering

Lew Cow, a Chinese vegetable ped
dler, was taken to the receiving hos
pital for treatment of injuries which
he sustained when he was thrown from
the seat of his wagon when his team
ran away at Seventh and Merchant
streets shortly before noon yesterday.
The Chinese was hurled to the ground
and painfully injured. His jaw was
fractured in two places, his right ear
was torn off and hanging only by a
slender thread of flesh, and two bones
of the right hand were crushed.
Cow was hurried to the receiving hos
pital and, although his wounds We're
extremely painful, never uttered a
groan while he was being treated by
Police Surgeon Wright. After his
wounds had been dressed Lew Cow
arose from the operating couch, stag
gered over to where his coat and hat
were, donned them and, before the
amazed police surgeon could speak,
thanked the hospital attendants and de-
parted.
''He walked out as if nothing had
happened" said DR.. Wright. 'It was
one of the most remarkable exhibitions
of nerve that have ever seen"

YOUNG FOUND TO BE
INNOCENT OF CRIME
Former Social Favorite Charged with
Passing Worthless Check Was
Allowed overdraft of
500 at Bank

&C. e. Young, former secretary to
Senator Daniel of Virginia, an attor-
ney who achieved many notable sue
cesses at the national capital, and who
was prominent in society circles at
Washington, was given his preliminary
examination in police court yesterday
on a charge of passing a fictitious
check. After certain testimony had
been presented he was discharged by
the court at the request of Deputy Dis
trict Attorney Pearson.
Young was arrested Tuesday on a
complaint sworn to by w. C. Oaks,
proprietor of the WELLINGTON saloon,
who accused Young of rendering him a
worthless check for 500 The former
social lion was locked up in the city
Jail and not a friend went to his aid to
furnish bail
During the testimony of a represen-
tative of the Columbia Trust company,
on which the check was drawn, 1t de-
veloped Young had been authorized to
make an overdraft of 500, and at the
time of his passing the check on Oaks

FERRIS OBJECTS TO
FLEAS IN BALLOON
Does Not Take Kindly to Suggestion.
Toy Advertisement Taken for
Bomb and Hotel Patrons
Scatter

Suggestions enough to make an ency-
clopedia on how to navigate the air
are coming to Dick Ferris as the re-
suit of his fame as an air contest pro-
moter Somebody who knows just how
to do things is on hand every time he
goes to Chutes park.
81 think" said one of the men with a
sure-as-death idea yesterday, lit would
be fine to get out a circular claiming
that the only sure cure for the Cali
fornia flea is to go up in a Dick Ferris
balloon several thousand feet. The flea
would be along, of course, but 1t is
reasonable to suppose that he would
take it into his head to exercise. In
exercising his customary agility the flea
in making a jump to land under the
dining room table en- route for another
member of the family would find HIM
self careening in space-with result
that the flea mortality would grow until
the vicious little beast will ultimately
be numbered among those that are eX-
tinct."
Nothing doing" said Ferris. do
you suppose a little matter of skid Of
$4,000 or 10000 feet would feaze flea?
Not on your life for any flea numbered
among those 1 have met. Why, after
two or three flea descents would wake
up in the morning and find the street
packed with a struggling mob of f1eas
struggling to get in line for me to
make sure of going up on the next
flight I'm near enough bughouse
getting this race off; anyhow L don't
want the fleakiller championship"
The suggestionist is the least of the
troubles Ferris Is having. An irate
hotelkeeper near the plaza is threat
ening to sue him for damages and
loss of trade as a result of practical
joke. A man who secured one of the
toy balloons advertising the Ferris ball
loon race took it into the hotel, which
is patronized by laboring men repre-
senting every nationality known in Los
Angeles. He cut the balloon loose,
and there was frantic dive under the
counter and for every other place OF
refuge. with shout of Bomb" in
fourteen different languages. When
quiet was restored with the aid OF
Policeman Bottorf of the Chinatown
squad. the proprietor realized that sew
eral excited guests were clamoring to
leave. Now he swears that Ferris must
pay for it.

INSANE WOMAN HAS SLIGHT
CHANCE TO RECOVER MIND

Mrs Kate Johnson, who became in
sane as the result of witnessing the
death of her mother in a runaway ac-
cident Wednesday morning, and who
was placed in the insane ward at the
county hospital Thursday afternoon,
is resting quietly and the attendants
say she is becoming more rational.
While a arrangement of this nature
is usually permanent, the condition of
Mrs. johnson indicates her malady
may be an exception, and there is a
slight chance for her recovery.
Her sister, Mrs. Rhoda Ostrom, who
was an occupant of the buggy at the
time her mother was hurled to death,
sustained a fracture of the cheek bone,
numerous bruises about the body and
laceration of the face. Attendants at
the Clara Barton hospital say the pa
tient is improving slowly.
At the request of relatives there was
no inquest held on the body of the
mother, the coroner simply signing a
certificate of accidental DEATH The
funeral services were held yesterday
morning at Bresee Bros chapel, and

BLIND PIGS RAIDED

Two Assistants Arrest Two Pro-

Two raids on places where, it is
charged, liquor has been sold in viola
tion of the county ordinances were
made by S. L. Brown, chief of detec-
tives in the district attorneys office
and two assistants, Louis Duni and C.
V. Carey, yesterday.

pass and owned by s. S. Anderson of
the Hollywood hotel. The proprietor
has a restaurant license, but drinks
without meals are said to have been
served freely. Roddich and Anderson

EXPOSITION WILL
BEGIN TONIGHT
MAYOR WILL PRESS BUTTON
AT 7:45 O'CLOCK
FoRTY-FlVE THOUSAND FEET OF
FLOOR SPACE USED
One Hundred and Fifty Industrial
Concerns of Los Angeles and
Vicinity Will Display Home
made Products

AT 7;45 o'clock tonight, instead of
Monday as previously announced, the
Made in Southern California exposition
will be formally opened. to continue
for an indefinite period.
Mayor Harper has promised to lend
his personal aid in an endeavor to see
the big show, which Is intended to
boost, in a practical manner the manu-
featuring and industrial interests of
this section OF the state, is given q
good send-off
By pressing a button at the time
specified the city's chief executive will
set in motion the machinery of the
exposition and thus indicate the for
NAL opening of the industrial feature
of the year.
Forty-five thousand square feet Of
floor space is considerable, but it is all
utilized by the booths of more than $50
manufacturing and industrial concerns
of Los Angeles and vicinity. 1t is also
greater by half than that afforded the
exhibition at the first exposition early
last year, but according to Manager
Newman it is not equal to the de-
mands of the local industries, as dur
ing the past few days he has received
requests for space which could not be
granted. In many instances these re-
quests have come from unexpected
sources and from concerns whose ex-
istence sin our midst" was not known
and this fact he regards as an addi-
tional evidence of the continuous and
rapid growth of Los Angeles as a
manufacturing and industrial center.
Day Is Strenuous
Yesterday was strenuous one for
Mr.. Newman and his assistants, and
also for a number of exhibitors, who
let Father Time 'trample on their heels
hnfnra fhnxr horo a oF 70 of
they were liable to display merely
empty booths instead of the products of
their plant.
AS a result of hustling tactics. the
work that should have required two
or three days was crowded into one,
and last night so much order had come
out of chaos that very little remains
to be done today to place the entire
exposition in proper order and to make
it ready for the critical inspection Of
the thousands who are expected to at
tend the big show tonight. AS far as
the exposition building itself is con-
cerned, the opening might have taken
place several days ago, as every de-
tail had been completed.
Yesterday the teachers of culinary
art, who will give demonstrations
showing how the products of the
fields, farms and orchards of Southern
California can best be prepared for
the table, appeared and polished the
pans and kettles, preparatory to CIV
ing their very interesting and tooth
some exhibitions, while Cesare La
Monaco, the youthful leader. assembled
his Royal italian band and gave a
slight demonstration of what the pa
irons of the exposition may expect in
q musical way
A. Paul Mathot, who has charge of
the production of Zukor's ''Humanovo,"
in the theater, to be presented in
connection with the exposition and
which will be free to exposition visit
ors, yesterday announced his part Of
the program will be presented at the
appointed hour tonight.

SEVEN TESTIFY
TO GRAND JURY
CITY OFFICIALS ARE AMONG
WITNESSES
PUBLIC WORKS MAY BE UNDER
INVESTIGATION
Mayors Libel Suits Against Express
Set for Hearing in March-First
Case Filed, Last

: Seven persons were examined by the
grand jury yesterday and when the
jury adjourned until Monday at 10
o'clock only two witnesses were in
the corridor awaiting call. These
were r. c. Humphrey and F. L. Coe,
motorcycle policemen.
E. A Gibbs, draughtsman in the city
engineers Office, was the first person
to be called before the Investigating
body His testimony, it is believed,
related to work on the outfall sewer,
with which he is perfectly familiar.
e. ]. Fleming, who was succeeded as
city prosecutor by Thomas L. Wool
wine, replaced Mr. Gibbs in the jury
room, remaining from 1O:45 o'clock I'M
til noon. Mr. Fleming is now associat-
ed with Attorneys w. J. Hunsaker and
e. w. Britt. His testimony, it is be-
lleved, was In connection with the
charges of protected vice made by Mr..
Woolwine.
j. Charbonnel, real estate dealer,
was the first witness called in the aft
ernoon and remained in the room ten
minutes. He declined to say anything
about his testimony.
Hewitt Testifies
Leslie r. Hewitt, city attorney, was
the next witness. He was in the cham
Der some time. G. w. Cox, proprietor
of the Delmonte saloon, entered the
room as Mr.. Hewitt emerged. Harry
Roster, a saloonkeeper, was in the jury
room a few moments. M. Sheldon.
street contractor, was the next person
to be called and it is surmised his tes-
timony concerned the city's public
works w. B. Denman, patrolman,
was the last witness of the day.
The two suits filed by Mayor A. c..
Harper against the Evening Express
and Edwin T. Earl, its publisher, in
which libel is charged as an outgrowth
of Mr.. Woolwine's statements that vice
is protected in Los Angeles, were set
for trial by Judge Conrey yesterday.
The second suit filed will be the first
one tried. This is the action in which
the mayor demands 100000 damages
for alleged libel, and is set for trial
March g. Trial of the first suit, in
which 100000 damages is asked, is set
for March 10. Both cases will be tried
by jury.
Mayor Harper is expected to appear
before Notary Arthur e. Bagley in the
International Bank building at $3.50
o'clock today to give his deposition In
the case set for March Is. Conditions
of secrecy, for which the mayors at
torneys have so strongly contended,
will, it is understood, be adhered to.
