MACHINIST SUDDENLY
BECOMES DEMENTED
FOREMAN OF PIERCE-ARR0W
GARAGE UNDER RESTRAINT
Associates Not Warned of Mans De-
mentia, Although They Had Mo-
ticed He Acted QueerIy for
Few Days

Clayton White, foreman of the Pierce
Arrow garage, 227 South Main street,
who has been acting queerly for sew
eral days, became suddenly insane yes
terday morning, and procuring two re-
VolVers, entered an automobile and for
four hours kept the police department
and attaches of the sherift's office busy
before he was captured.
White attempted to use his revolvers
when accosted in a machine shop on
North Main street, near Maud Junction,
but was overpowered and disarmed be-
fore he had a chance to use them.
White was taken to the county jail
and locked in a padded cell, apparently
a raving maniac.
Although acting queerly at times, it
was not until yesterday morning that
he was believed to be insane. The
foreman went to the garage and stated
that he had been driving machine all
night and his irrational talk aroused
suspicion. Replenishing one of the big
siX-cylinder machine with gasoline, he
uttered a remark about their being
after him, but could not get him." he
whirled up Main street at a rapid pace.
Fearing he might do himself or others
injury, the sheriff's office was notified,
and a sharp lookout maintained during
the morning.
Deputy Sheriffs Rico and SepulVeda
followed the man to the machine shop
and succeeded in bringing him to the
county Jail.
White was an expert machinits and
commanded a salary of $500 a month,
and no cause for his mental alteration
is known,

civic security where barbarians are
no longer feared, and where even in
warfare women's physical disabilities
are respected. Moreover, and here we
touch the pulse of the suffrage fever,
we have reached a point where
woman's powers of usefulness and her
higher education make her no longer
content or able to support herself by
old-time female interests. Machinery
has largely usurped hand labor. 1t is
not true that women mind their chill
dren less than in times past; they mind
them more; but weaving, spinning,
candle dipping and all such house
drudgeries are now done by mechan-
ical appliances. Woman has more time,
infinitely more time, than she had a
hundred years ago. She has more
education. One of our ordinary shop
girls writes as correct letter as did
our cherished Martha Washington.
Times have changed strangely and
wonderfully changed. Woman is
forced out into the world, forced to
struggle on an equality with men.
She has physical disabilities that she
needs to safeguard, she is morgan
lied, and man for centuries has been
learning to organize; she is a new
conner in the great field of economic
usefulness.
What does she need? She needs what
the white man gave to the negro fifty
years ago. She needs the vote. She
needs it to give her growing intelli
gence a wider opportunity; she needs
it to safeguard her interests as 4
public servant in a great republic.
Is it just to deny her civic rights
because she is not fitted for certain
public duties, such as fighting, police
duty, etc? Does she not give in ex-
change for these duties citizens to carry
on the world? Because her maternal
functions reserve her as q favored
class, is it right that she should have
no voice in a republic which could
not exist without her? Is it right that
she should be underpaid and unrepre-
sented where her vital interests are
concerned?

4 MAN | once knew "back east is
n reported to have said that there
- can be only one infliction worse
than girl playing a piano and that
is two girls playing two pianos
Fifty young women playing duets on
twenty-five pianos was a feature of
the program given in Temple auditor
fum last night by the Los Angeles
Chopin club. under the direction of
Lillian B. Peters, and the joy of the
occasion was commensurate with the
inverse ratio of the increase of the
square of the number of instruments.
The performers had their backs to
the audience and nearly all were so
placed that had they not been occu-
pied with the score it would have been
impossible for the INTO see the director,
who in consequence was obliged to
mark time with voice and foot as well
as with uplifted hands.
Herr Won der Aur formerly with the
Savage opera company of New York,
was soloist of the evening, and his
excellent work deserves more than
casual mention Herr Won der Aur has
a we'll trained voice that shows years
of experience in concert and grand
opera and his selections were given
with dignity and authority.
Considering that the Chopin club
was organized only a few weeks ago,
the ensemble of the fifty violinists
would have been quite creditable to
the director had the program been an
nounced as a pupils recital.
The attainment of the Fidelia male
chorus and Bruce Gordon Kingsley
work as an organist are too well
known to need comment.
The programmed numbers were the
following:

SCHOOLS OF FASHION
PROMISED INNOVATION

Schools of fashion for women with
small incomes soon are likely to spring
up in all the big cities of the country.
One of them already has been started
in Chicago, and it is said that they Will
follow in other cities shortly. the
founder of the pioneer institution in the
western city is a young woman with
good Paris training. Instead of pass
ing her days building gowns for mil
lionaires' wives, she is turning her tai
ent to the task of teaching women of
modest means how to copy French
fashions at small expense. In a chat
the other day she said: This is the
first school of it's kind to be opened in
America. It's system is wholly unlike
the methods of the ordinary classes
where dressmaking is taught, and l
think 1t is going to be very successful.
Women choose their own styles and
bring their own materials to me, and
they must devote a couple of hours a
day to study. This is not impossible
even to the busy woman with many
engagements.
First, I teach my pupils by cutting
out the garment before them and eX-
planning all details. Then comes the
fitting; after which the owner can, I'M
der supervision, do the sewing herself.
pupil with ordinary ability in this
way can make three dresses in the term
of twelve lessons. The lessons cost $12
for the term. No dressmaker would
make three dresses for this money, so
my pupils are saving money while they
are learning how to create gowns.
Many really pretty women do not OBJ
tain the success their beauty demands,
for they have no notion how to dress.
They don't understand coloring, and
will cheerfully adopt clothes that are
quite unsuitable to themselves if they
are fashionable. Here women will be
taught to study their good points, and
how to emphasize them, and which
colors to choose and which to avoid"

OFFICIALS JUSTIFY CUTTING
OF PHONE WIRES
DYING MAN UNABLE TO CALL HIS
FRIENDS
General Counsel of Pacific States
Company Hastens to Pasadena
to Take Charge of
Legal F ght

PASADENA, May 29.--Alfred Sutro
general counsel of the Pacific States
Telephone and Telegraph company, is
Fastening to Pasadena, and he is eX-
pected to arrive tomorrow morning
When he comes it is confidently eX-
pected Judge Bordwell will renew the
temporary injunction against the city
officials of Pasadena, and the severed
telephone wires will be repaired under
the truce the injunction will grant.
While the Pasadena officials stand
staunchly by the position they have
taken, and declare they have done right
the largest number of the 1883 patrons
of the telephone company whose con-
nections are severed loudly denounce
the severity of the action. They are
not only inconvenience, but in several
cases serious hardship has occurred.
One man died at the Maryland last
night and because his friends could
not be notified by telephone he died
alone, among strangers.
Council Condemned
Hot condemnation and equally heated
defense of the action of the mayor and
the city council is heard ron every hand.
That the city council intends to stand
by it's guns to the last possible mo-
ment is evident by the tone of their
talk today. Every man of them be-

the circumstances.
Councilman II. G. Cattell said; every
act of the Sunset company has shown
that it has no intention of adopting
methods we believe are fair, nor of
taking out franchise. We were obliged
to act in haste to prevent the taking
out of an injunction, which would tie
the matter up for another two years"
This is practically the position of the
others, even j. d. Mersereau, who
while not present at the special session
yesterday, stands as one with his COM
rades of the board in regard to their
action. Mayor Farley issued publicly
this afternoon an ultimatum to the
Sunset company, in which, after re-
hearsing the events of the night, he
says: 1--WE realized the inconvenience
which it would be to a large number of
our citizens, and we hope they will help
us in having our ordinances upheld,
even if they have to suffer some incon-
venience for a short time. If the Sun
set Telephone company will pay the
city what it owes, and makes applica-
ton, it can repair it's wires and do
business in our city on strictly bust
ness basis"
Believes Delay Avoided

suggested the wire cutting, and win be
