DID you ever look up the meaning
- of the words price" and Cost?
We venture you'd be interested, even
surprised.
Price" originally meant not money, not CASH
but Reward Praise, Worth. In the days of
Caesar they called it ''Pretium."
Cost" comes from the old Icelander word
"Koster," signifying to Choose, to Test. to
Prove.
So "Price" is really the Worth of the thing sold.
Cost" means how well the thing bought proves
up in actual use.
So we're far off the track today for when you
buy paint the Price of should be the of its
usefulness in appearance and wear. Its Cost to you
will be how we'll it stands the test you put it to. it
does well, it's cheap; if not, you paid too much.
Measured by this poor paint far, far than
good paint; never worth the price asked and never
stands the test of wear.
There's one house paint made that's worth the price
and stands the test, and that's HORSE SHOE

After Third Request

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 22.-F. E. Haw-
nan, wanted in Pueblo, Colo, for en-
bezzlement from the Red Mems lodge
there, is under arrest here, pending the
arrival Of a Colorado officer.
Hawnan walked into police head
quarters several days ago, and re-
quested that he be locked up, explain
ing why.
The officers refused to comply with
this request. Next day he returned
and repeated the declaration that he
was wanted in Pueblo and Chief Will
son wired the officers there for par
ticulars. Meantime Hawnan had
again left the police station. He re-
turned this morning for the third time
and was told he was wanted for en-
bezzlement.
He apologized for putting the officers
to so much trouble, and, borrowing "a
cents from the desk sergeant, went out
alone for breakfast, promising to re-
turn in 80 minutes. He. did, and is now
in jail awaiting the arrival of the
Pueblo officers.
Hawnan says that while treasurer OF
the Colorado lodge he took $1,000 of the
lodges funds.

TYRANNY OF MEXICO

SAN BERNARDINO, Oct. 22.-
Adopting stinging resolutions against
the arrest and detention OF l.. Gultief[e1
De Lara. the carpenters union of this
CITY has condemned the action of the
authorities and protest against the par
ticipation of the United States govern
ment in the affair. With other strong 8
statements the protest Is embodied in
the resolution THAT the spectacle OF
nation governed by such institutions as
is the United States, aiding and aoet-
ting the Iawless tyranny of Mexico, is
to say the least, deplorable circum-
stance that can but merit the con-
demnation of the working class of all
civilized countries and lower our ma
tion in the esteem of the world; that
this conduct on the part of our govern
ment is inconsistent with the spirit OF
the age-a spirit made manifest by the
universal uprising against ana tne
condemnation of legalized murder such
as that of which Spain has so recently

TEMBLOR FELT NEAR
MOUNT ETNA AGAIN
AMERICAN HAD F0RECASTED
EARTH SHOCKS
Earth Is Believed to Have Resisted
the Stress and Strain Ex-
erted by the Solar
Bodies

MESSINA, Oct. 22.-Yesterday's
earth shocks felt in the vicinity OF
Mount Etna coincide with the renewed
activity of Mount Vesuvius, and have
caused much alarm here. The fact that
such a seismic disturbance had been
predicted by Frank A. Perret, the
American scientist, does not lessen the
uneasiness.
Mr.. Perret was in this city during
the last week of September, and at that
time pointed out that September 20
would be a date most favorable for
earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, for
the reason that at that time the sun,
earth and moon would be in line, thus
constituting a combination tending to
produce gravitational distortion of
the earths form.
Mr.. Perret added that if nothing out
of the ordinary occurred, as proved to
be the case, it would mean that the
earth had resisted the unusual pressure,
but that telluric convulsions probably
would be experienced in the latter half
of October

Saws II Is Less Dangerous Than Auto
mobile Racing-Reliable Motor
Alone Is Essential

PARIS, Oct. 22.-Orville Wright has
outlined his views on the subject of
mechanical flight.
"There is not as much danger In
flying as there is in automobile racing,
he says. 1--WE now turn out motors
that will run regularly for short
time, forty-nine times out of fifty, and
in ten years, or five years, or even two
years, 1 think there will be an aero
plane motor absolutely reliable
1--WE will soon build machine for
speed to be used with our presnt mo-
tor to show what can be done. 1t Will
go faster than any machine you have
seen over here"
"How fast can you fly in one of your
present machines ?" he was asked.
'In Berlin" he answered, Il took up
as a passenger a man who weighed 225
pounds. 1 had seventy-five pounds of
gasoline on board. I could replace the
weight of the man with gasoline and
that would give me 800 pounds of fuel.
With that, I could fly 800 miles.
Anyone who can run an automobile
can fly. 1t is not nearly as difficult or
as dangerous as automobile racing

willing to purchase from American
houses and that the latter produce
many goods which the Orientals can
use profitably. The trouble in the past,
according to the special investigator
was that American houses seeking
business there had no personal repre-

did have such representatives., and
they made friends with the Chinese
and have profted by 1t.
The report declares an enormous
business can be done through branch

SAYS NORMAL SPAN
OF LIFE IS $50 YEARS
LENGTH OF MANS EXISTENCE
Is GROWING
Declares Human Animals Should Live
Five Times as Long as Period
of Growth, as Do
Mammals

NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-The normal
span of human life is $50 years, ac-
cording to a remarkable study by Pro-
fessor Fisher of Yale, which has just
been published by the national con-
servation commission at Washington.
Professor Fisher shows the length of
mans existence Is steadily growing,
both in this country and in Europe,
with the progress Of science, sanitation
and social betterment, and declares
that the span of 150 years will not long
be impossible of attainment.
The investigations by Meichnikof are
quoted by Professor Fisher to show
that the average normal span should
be 15O years. Manuals generally, he
points out, live about five times their
growing period. Mans period OF
growth is 80 years, and according to
that he should live for $50 years.
The present average duration of life
Is stated at SO years. Two cases OF
persons who lived to great ages are
Drakenberg, a Norwegian, who died at
the age Of 146 years, and Mrs. Mary r.
Wood of Portland, Ore, 120 years old,
both of which are authentic.

TERRIFIED AT DARING OF
LATHAM WITH AER0PLANE
Crowds Watch Aviator Battle Against
Gale Blowing Thirty Miles
an Hour

BLACKPOOL, England, Oct. 22.-
The capabilities of the aeroplane IN
the hands of a daring pilot were eX-
emplified here today, when Hubert
Latham, the French, aviator, gave an
exhibition that first entertained and
then terrified the spectators.
In a monoplane Latham battled
against a gale blowing fifty miles an
hour, and he twice circled the course
AS the machine struggled in the teeth
of the gale it appeared at times to
stand still in the air. When, however
Latham came about in the wind the
monoplane was driven at rate estl-
mated to be between eighty and one
hundred miles an hour.
At one time he barely escaped being
carried out to sea- and the spectators
ceased to cheer and besought the avia-
tor to come down. When Latham did
alight he was not permitted to attempt
a further fight while the wind con-
tinued high.

POLICE SUSPECT
WIFE'S MURDER
DEAD WOMAN SUPPOSED TO
BE GERMAN GIRL
ANNA LATTER SAID TO HAVE
BEEN MISSING A YEAR
Tale Told by a Road Housekeeper
About Automobile Trip Last
Fall Hinges on the
Case

rBy Associated P1ess.l ]


NEW YORK, Oct. 22.-Following the
receipt of dispatches from Hamburg,
Germany, last night, saying that the
young woman whose body was found
at Islip, l.. l., last Sunday, might have
been Anna Latter of Altoona, sub
urb of Hamburg, a number of points
in the mystery have been cleared away.
The Identification is considered cor
rect, and the police are now seeking to
locate Otto Mueller, who is said TO
have married the girl in Newark, N D.,
February 6, 1908.
For several months previous to that
time, it is said, Anna Latter had been
employed as maid in the home OF
Isaac Seligman, a New York banker.
Shortly after the wedding, Otto Mueller
took his bride to Europe, where they
visited her relatives in Germany, and
then hurried back to New York. They
spent a few days in Newark, visiting
friends, but suddenly were lost track
of and, although inquiries were made,
their disappearance remained mys-
terry until the disclosure of the fact
that the skeleton found at Islip might
be that of Anna Latter. 1t has been
the belief of the police that the muir
der was committed more than year
ago. The girl could then have been
bride of but few months when she
met her death.
The discovery of a pair of automo-
bile glasses near the skeleton strength
ems the theory that the girl was taken
to the woods in a motor car. A road
house keeper near by has told the po-
lice that two men and woman came
to his house in an automobile last fall
and after quarreling, hurried away
The two men returned later without
the woman.
Mueller met Miss Latter at Far
Rockaway beach while she was car
ing for an invalid there. He had rep.
resented himself as an architect, and
said he owned lots in Jamaica, l.. l.,
where he planned to build mousse
The police are looking for Mueller for
further information.

Labor Council Protests
At the Central Labor council last
night strong resolutions of protest
against the arrest and deportation OF
every union in the city has either fallen
in line or has signified intention ol
adopting similar resolutions.
Of the scores of letters received by
The Herald, all of which commend the
fair attitude taken In regard to this
De Lara case by this paper, none pays
higher tribute to the character Of
the man who has been made a target
of Mexican officials seeking vengeance
than the one which follows:s.
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 22.-GEdi-
tor Herald: l have known L. Gu
tierrez de Lara about two years.
l have heard him address audi
ences both in Spanish and En-
glish. 1 have had numerous con-
Versations with him upon the con-
ditions in Mexico, his hopes and
desires for the emancipation of his
countrymen from the rule of op-
preston. Never have I heard a
single word that did not indicate
the ioftiest patriotism, the most
unselfish devotion to a great and
high purpose.
De Lara is as gentle and sympa-
thetic as a woman, but with all
that glowing enthusiasm that char
acterizes the Latin races. The
blood of a true patriot courses
through his veins. Is that crime?
Then, were our own revolutionary
forefathers criminals, then is every
man who dares speak a word for
justice, for freedom, for truth,
criminal? Then are the members
of the Good Government league,
who are standing for civic right
eousness in this city, criminals?
The whole matter of De Lara's
arrest would be simply ridiculous,
If 1t were not that an innocent
mans life is at stake If he be rail-
roaded back to Mexico
Citizens of Los Angeles, are you
going to sit supinely by and allow
a man like De Lara-a Ferrer to
the Mexican people-to be deported
to Mexico, there to be shot down
by the government authorities?
