MRS. MALAPRop OF TODAY.
Modern Rival Of the Famous Charac-
ter That Made Richard Sher-
idan Famous.

In an uptown social circle 1t is mat
ter of gossip that a certain charming
young woman never let's her mother
out of ear shot because the older
woman's conversational transports
need to be continually checked. She
is rich even for New York, but she
outdoes all the Mrs. Malaprops In
town.
When she returned from Paris last
year some one asked her Ii she had
seen the tuilleries. why, certainly
not" she responded, drawing herself
up majestically. 1--WE too much sense
to push in where I'm not wanted, and
If the tuilleres had wanted us to visit
them they would have called first.
They didn't, did they, Carrier" she
asked, turning TO her embarrassed
daughter. The latter explained to her
mother that the tuilleries was a pal
ace of the French kings, and that 1t
was filed with works Of art, like the
louvre. The mother thereupon re-
joined; "Speakin Of works of art,
you can break up all the rest If you'll
only leave me the belladonna and the
dying gladols Did ever tell you
Of the artist my daughter met in Rome?
lie went mad over the shape of her
hand, and nothin would DO but he
should make a bust of it"
The daughter had one thing to re-
.joice over, however, and that was
that nobody this side of the Atlantic
would be'likely to hear Of the message
that she had heard her mother send to
visitor by servant in London
hotel.
Just tell him." she said, gazing Ian
guidly through her lorgnon at the card
that had been handed her, that he'll
have to excuse me this time, as just
at present | am decomposing on the
sofa."-New York Press.

Brought Her Own Potatoes.

A young German girl who has re-
Gently come to live with relatives in
America, amused them exceedingly by
bringing with her large box filled
full Of potatoes, because she is par
ticularly partial to them, and was
told that in this country we had only
the variety known as Sweet" which
did not sound to her nice at all. As
her potatoes sprouted % the journey,
showing decided inclination to con.
vert themselves into fourishing vines
she was greatly comforted to find that
her relatives could supply the def.
cheney. This German girl is astonished
that, though we seem to value the DO
tato, we do not, as in the case In her
country, erect statues to Sir Walter
Raleigh, who introduced the plant into
Europe

MAIDEN NElGHBOR IS
ACCUSED OF PERJURY
w. F. DUNN OF AZUSA DEMANDS
COMPLAINT
Saws That First Trouble Arose When
He Returned Home with Bride
Several Years His
Junior

Is Miss Myra L. Eckles, the eccentric
spinster ranch woman of northwest
Glendora, actuated by a spirit of jeal-
ousy because of unrequited affections
in her prosecutions of William F. Dunn,
a neighbor, who was found guilty in
Azusa's justice court Tuesday after
jury trial on a charge of trespass, in
stituted by Miss Eckles? Dunn believes
she is, because, he says, Miss Eckles
first manifested her feelings Of resent
ment on the day he returned home with
his bride after a short honeymoon trip.
Dunn was at the district attorneys
office yesterday seeking information re-
garding the steps necessary to be taken
to file charges of perjury against Miss
Eckles, who, he claims, testified falsely
in the justice court trial when she said
she did not on any occasion threaten
with a shotgun any person attempting
to use the generally travelled road
through her property.
For several years Dunn and Miss
Eckles have been neighbors, their asso-
citation being friendly until year ago,
when Dunn married a woman several
years younger than his erstwhile friend,
"At one time" said Dunn, Miss
Ecl1les wanted me to purchase property
separating our ranches and to work
the land on shares. l think she con-
templated that this would be followed
by a wedding"
1t was, but, according to Dunn, the
partner he chose to share his joys and
SORROWS and contentious with Miss
Fckles did not meet with her approval.
Her first action was to lock the gate
through which Dunn usually passed in
short cut to his home. When Dunn
forced open the gate and pushed the
woman aside from her point of vigilance
he was arrested on two charges, one of
battery and the other trespass. The
latter was disposed of Tuesday when
he was found guilty and the time of
sentence set for Tuesday next. The
latter charge is still pending.
Following the fling of the charges
Dunn had Miss Eckles arrested on a
charge of insanity, claiming he wanted
her mental condition passed upon be-
fore she appeared against him as wit
ness She swas released on this charge,
and so far has been the victor in every
case.
Owing to the absence of Percy Ham
mon, deputy district attorney, Dunn
did not secure his perjury complaint
Yesterday. He says he will appeal to
the superior court from the decision of
Justice Glover of Azusa in the trespass
matter
The roadway barred by Miss Eckles
has, it is said, been used generally for
fifty-seven years and is the only road
between Redlands and Pasadena over
which easy access can be had to the
Angelus forest reservation. For this
reason, says Dunn. it should remain
open, and he adds that steps already
are being taken by citrus organizations
of Lordsburg, San Dimas. Charter Oak,
Coyina, Glendora and Azusa to appeal
TO the board of supervisors to make the
road a county thoroughfare.

NEW DOG COMMISSION
HOLDS FIRST MEETING
President of Humane Animal League
Says League Will Surrender
Rights if Salary Payments
Are Guaranteed

The new humane animal commission
appointed Tuesday by the mayor held
a preliminary meeting In the mayors
Office yesterday afternoon and dis
cussed plans for the future. The COM
mission is composed of Charles A. Eld-
er, Walter Schmidt and Francis G..
Haley.
It will be the duty of this new COM
mission to handle the dog pound, but
until the contract the Humane Animal
league holds with the city is surren-
dered the commission can do little or
nothing. It is probable this contract
will be surrendered at the next meeting
of the city council.
Reports that the Humane Animal
league would stand on it's rights and
demand the full ninety days notice to
which it is entitled by reason of the
contract were denied by Miss Helen
Mathewson, president of the league,
yesterday. She intimated the league
would voluntarily give up its contract
on assurance by the new commission
that the debts contracted by the league
would be paid. These debts are chiefly
salaries owed to employees who have
not been paid for the last three months
on account of an injunction against the
city auditor forbidding his paying any
money to the Humane Animal league.
The new commission expressed a pro-
nounced sentiment yesterday in favor
of paying the employees every cent that
is due them.
Councilman Healy was much incensed
at the reports yesterday he had OPP
posed the confirmation of the commits
sion in the council because he feared
the new commission would discharge
the Vachers.
That's not my idea at ALL" said
Healy. "If 1 had been assured the new
commission would discharge the Vach-
ers 1 would have voted for it in a hur-
ry. I think they ought to be dis
charged on account of the way they
handled the dog pound under the old
system. I only opposed the commission
because I believe the way the Humane
Animal league has been conducting af-
fairs in the last year is the best way
it could be done, and believe in letting
well enough alone"

CLAMPITT is AGAIN LATE
FOR MEETING OF COUNCIL
Business is Delayed Halt an Hour
Waiting Arrival of Tardy
Member

Caiolery or threat by President Pease
seem to have no effect on the council
or at least on that part of it composed
of Ed Clampitt. Clampitt is never on
time for meeting of the council and
he was late, as usual, yesterday morn
ing. AS a result the meeting of the
council, which was set for 10 O'clock
could not be held until 1O:30 o'clock.
I'D be ashamed of myself If l
couldn't get here on time. said Presl--
dent Pease yesterday, and he glared
mildly in Clampitt's direction as he
said it. Clampitt crawled into his col
lar and looked wildly around for some
means of escape, but there was none at
hand.
Ii is different with some of the other
members of the council who used to be
late in attendance. By dint of constant
rendition and some scolding the pres
ident has at last convinced a few OF
them that 10 o'clock is not II, and thai
when the council is scheduled to meet
at 10 O'Clock Wednesday morning thar
does not mean some time next week.

DARK FOR PARK
IN PlCO HEIGHTS
COUNCIL PRACTICALLY GIVES
UP PROCEEDINGS
TWENTY-FIVE PROPERTY OWN
ERs FILE PROTEST
AS Necessary Percentage of Inter-
ested Land Owners Have Not
Signed Petition Matter Is
Taken Under Amusement

Although the matter is technically
| under adVisement," the proceedings
for converting a tract of land in Pico
Heights into a public park have prac-
tically been abandoned by the city
council. This action was taken by the
council yesterday, when President
Pease, who represents the district in
which the proposed park is situated, re-
ported a recommendation that the as
sessment district be enlarged
When the president made this re
port Councilman Yonkin called the at
tention of the council to the rule re-
Gently adopted defining the policy of
the council to begin no proceedings un-
der the park act unless a petition is
signed by the owners of 35 per cent of
the property frontage in proposed as
sessment district. This rule was adopt
ed by the council while President
Pease was on his vacation, and he had
no notice of it.
The proposition was to convert the
vacant land between Pico street, Six
teenth street and Normandie avenue
into a public park. This property is
now owned by the Rosedale Cemetery
association and is divided from Rose
dale cemetery by Sixteenth street. Al
though the land was acquired for
cemetery purposes an ordinance was
passed after it was purchased defining
districts in the city limits where ceme-
teries could be located. and as this land
is not in the cemetery district it can
not be used for burial purposes.
Property Owners Want Park
Pico Heights property owners have
long wanted to have this land turned
into a public park, and this park
project has been one of the pet meas
ures of President Pease. The tract
contains about twenty-three acres and
is we'll adapted for park purposes nat
urally.
The assessment district for this park
had been fixed at the western city linn
it's, Twenty second, San Marino and
Hoover streets. President Pease be-
lieved these limits should be extended.
When the president presented the
matter to the council yesterday he
found a protest had been filed against
the project. The protest represented
the sentiments of twenty-five property
owners who held a meeting in a Pico
Heights real estate office. The senti-
ment of these property owners was
that they did not want this particular
park, because it was attached to a
cemetery, and that they did not want
a park at all that the city did not pay
for out of the general tax fund. As
such a small number of property own
ers were represented by the protest the
council did not feel justified in sus-
tanning the protest and compromised
by taking the matter under advise
ment. But the only way Pico Heights
property owners can secure this land
for a park is to present a petition to
the council signed by the required 80
per cent of frontage owners.

CONSTRUCTION CLERKS TO
INSPECT AQUEDUCT FOOD
Board of Public Works Formally
Approves Step to Insure
Healthfui Meals

Although the complaints about the
food served on the aqueduct have been
few and far between in the last two
weeks, and the men who were the
first to complain have been forced to
admit the quality of food they now
receive is all that can be asked, the
aqueduct department has taken steps
to eliminate any future cause for com.
plant by creating two posltlohs Oh
food inspectors. The positions are to
be technically known as construction
clerks, but the duties of these two
construction clerks will be to examine
the messes on the aqueduct and make
regular reports.
The board of public works formally
has approved the action of the aque.
duct department in the creation OF
these positions. and that it is designed
good men should be employed is SHOWN
bv the salaries to be paid. Each food
inspector will receive a salary Of $3.50
a month.
