jured Internally and Suffer-
ing Great Pain

crushed by a landslide Friday last, the
father and husband, Fred Drew, is the
only one whose condition is worrying
the physicians at the Pasadena hospi-
tai He is suffering intensely. Internal
injuries have developed which COM
plicate the case and the fact that his
left lung was bruised by. the blow
which fractured his ribs is an un-
favorable feature.

death of her 5-year-old by, Thayer.
TO the surprise of her attendants she
said she had known it ever since Sat
urday, when they told her about all
the other children.
The Pacific Electric company is
planning to rebuild the pavilion in the
spring, although some location other
than that occupied by the wrecked
building probably will be chosen.

Women Clubs

During a season of delightful and
varied entertainments the Ebell club
has presented no program which at
tracted larger audience or was more
cordially received than the presentation
of Bernard Shaw's one-act farce, "How
He Lied to Her Husband" interpreted
by Mrs. Lillian Burkhart Goldsmith
assisted by A. Byron Beasley and Ben
nett Southard. The vein Of Shaw wit
running through this clever sketch is
rapid and scintillating and was deftly
brought out by the charm and skillfuI
acting of the leading and only lady.
Mr.. Southland as the young poet, al
though eXtraVagant in his love for the
wife of another man, was also con-
Vlncing, and Mr.. Beasley, who is por-
traying the role of Mephistopheles at
the Burbank theater this week, doffed
his satanic role for the hour and be-
came a bluff, whole-hearted English
man, who felt no form of alteration too
great for his beautiful wife. At the
conclusion of the performance Mrs
Goldsmith was literally loaded with
flowers.
Members Of the club will meet Thurs
day afternoon to discuss the establish
ment of branch of the Red Cross So
ciety and Monday afternoon at the reg
ular meeting there will be a celebration
in honor of George Washington's birth
day. All members who desire to do so
are requested to wear costumes appro-
pirate to the occasion.
s.
An interesting event is promised the
California Business Woman's associa.
tion at the club rooms on West Third
street tonight. Mrs. Florence Collins
Porter will give an address upon one
of the momentouS questions now agi-
tating our city: Good Government

upon the subject following, and the last
half of the program will be devoted to
