ELOPER ARRESTED
VENTURA COUNTY COUPLE
CAUGHT AT RED0ND0
Man, 81 Years Old, and Young Woman
with Whom He Ran Away
Are in Hands of
Police

]. w. Hatfield, 81 years old, and Miss
Pearl Woods, Is years old, who have
been missing from Sespe, Ventura
county, for several days, were located
yesterday in a rooming house at Re-
dondo Beach by City Marshal Staunch-
field and placed under arrest.
Hatfield was booked at the city jail
on a statutory charge and Miss Woods
was sent to the detention home.
1t is stated by the police that Hatfield
had been paying attention to the young
girl, and that he asked the girls mother
for permission to marry, which was re-
fused.
Miss Woods apparently was infatu-
ated with Hatfield, and at his sugges-
tion agreed to elope. Miss Woods told
her mother that she was going to visit
relatives in San Francisco, and at the
time of her leaving Hatfield also left.
Word was sent to the police depart
ments of various cities, which resulted
in the arrest of the couple at Redondo
Beach yesterday.
They were brought to Los Angeles
last night, and the young girl wept bit
terly when Hatfield was placed in the
city Jail
Her parents were notified and the girl
will be detained at the detention home
until their arrival.

UPLAND FOLK LINE
TRACK TO SEE TAFT
President, SaIuted by School Children,
Says a Few Words of Greeting
During Stop of Ono
Minute

UPLAND, Oct. 12-"Big Bill" Taft
came, saw and conquered.
Six thousand people were lined up
along the Santa Fe tracks to greet
him, as his special rolled into the town,
twenty-seven minutes behind sched-
ule. Six thousand voices were raised
in cheers as the train came to a stand
still, and the air was filed with f1utter-
ing flags.
Il thought this place was uninhab-
ited," said the chief executive as he
came out on the observation platform,
"but L see that it is inhabited, and by
loyal, true citizens Of the United
States.''
Everybody INDUCED in a laugh at
this sally, the president himself laugh
ing until his sides shook.
The children of the grammar school
then gave a flag salute. The president
listened to the salute with head bowed
and when they came to the words,
lone nation indivisble; liberty and
Justice to ALL" tears crept into his
eyes. But only for moment. His race
bore the big, human, genial smile SO
common to him, when he again ad-
dressed the crowd.
you have come to see the presi-
dent" he said. "You wish to see the
man who will preside over the des-
TIMES of this great republic during the
next four years. Here l am You WIZ
at least see that I have no horns"
And then the train started, for the
party was due to arrive at San Ber-
nardino.
But the people were satisfied with
one minute of the chief executives
time. They came to see the president,
but they forgot his office in the real
ization of the fact that he was man.
a hig whole-hearted man. And then,
when the mingled impression of both
office and man was forced upon them
they were glad that the United States
of America had put into the office OF
president William H. Taft.
