NEW YORK, June 9.-Jack John

You remember when a certain
member of our race went to Australia

Aren't you afraid in that white

EARLY, The LEPER
sent TO new YORK
HEALTH DEPARTMENT OF CITY
WILL ALLOW HIM TO ENTER.
There is Still Much Discussion as to
Whether Man Has the Dread Mala-
dy or Not as Experts Differ.

NEW LORk, June 9.-Jonn Eedrl5,
who has been pronounced a leper, is
expected to arrive in New York this
week. The health authorities at Wash
ington have consented to his removal
on compliance with certain formalltles
if assured that he will receive proper
treatment here. Early's family and
friends have insisted all along that the
cannot be afflicted with leprosy. They
feel now confirmed in that view by the
findings of a specialist who has exam
ined him and made culture tests.
The Skin and Cancer Hospital is will
ing to receive Early as patient. The
expense of removal will be paid by the
Salvation Army, in which Early was
formerly captain
When Early developed the disease
from which he suffers the Washington
Board of Heath diagnosed it as lep-
rosy. He was accordingly removed last
August to a camp several miles outside
that city, where he has since remained
in quarantine. There was nothing in
the history of the case to indicate its
origin.
Earlys proestations and the insist
ence Of his friends resulted in a sum-
mons to Dr. L. Duncan Buckley, spe-
cialist in skin diseases, of No. 531 Mad
ison avenue, to examine him. DIR. Bulk
ley made two visits to Washington, OBJ
tanning skin cultures each time. On his
report that the disease was not lep-
rosy Earlys friends urged his removal
to this city where DR.. Buckley might
have the case in immediate charge.
While DIR. Buckley was arranging for
hospital accommodation and making
sure that the health authorities here
would not object to his bringing Early
into the city Dr. Edward Ehlers, of
Copenhagen, famous as a specials in
leprosy, visited Washington. Washing
ton health officers took him to the
quarantine camp last week. He eX-
amined Early and pronounced the dis
ease leprosy.
| Having made full preparations for
the removal. DIR. Buckley presented to
the Washington board yesterday for
NAL application. DR.. William c. Wood
ward, who is at the head of the board
ruled that the application must be
made by Early himself or his attorney,
and that certain other legal require
ments must be satisfied, necessitating
a little delay. 1t is expected that all
will be ready for tn trip today or O.
morrow.
When DR.. Buckley found that remov-
al would not be possible yesterday ht
invited the members of the Washing
ton board and DR.. J. H. White, of the
Marine Hospital Service. to visit Early
with him that he might convince
them it was not a case of leprosy.
/ They went, but examination did not
change opinions previously expressed
DR.. White, saying that he was present
only as a spectator, declined to com
nit himself

CLERGY SHOCKED
BY PROFESSOR
RApTIsTs WOULD TURN HIM OUT
BECAUSE OF HIS BOOK.

CHICAGO, June "a motion re-
questing the resignation from the
church of Prof George Burman Foster
of the University Of Chicago, whose
latest book "The Function of Religion
shocked Baptist clergymen a short
time ago. was made before the Bap-
fist ministers conference meeting yes
terday. The request came following a
review of the book by the Rev. W. A.
Matthews. who denounced it as mere
IDEAL in its teachings. Dramatic in
tensity was added by the presence OF
Professor Fosters 17-year-old son, who
sat in the front row.
The boy shifted nervously in his
chair during the early part OF Dr.
Matthews denunciation. Unable TO re-
strain himself longer he half rose
from his chair and cried: "Why don't
YOU review the book, and not the
man" A buzz of excitement spread
over the room, but the speaker paid
no attention to the interruption.
Professor Foster is a member of the
Divinity School alumni. The book
treats of evolution and natural pro-
cesses associated with theology. The
Rev Matthews said the work aimed at
the destruction of Christianity. The
book says to copy Jesus is to destroy
the soul" said the speaker, Just THINK
of that and question your own minds

Phil A0ELPHIA GIRL
HAS DuEAL SUlToR

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
PARIS, May 12.-What resem-
bles an old-time tourney of gal
lantry is amusing society at Nice.
The prize is the favor Of a young
American girl, Mrs. Percy Win
throp Smith of Philadelphia,
whose romantic marriage several
years ago created a sensation.
Mrs. Smith is a daughter of Mrs.
H. Mason Raborg of 161 East
Thirty-sixth ST., New York, whose
former husband, w. Livingston,
now resides in Germany. Mrs.
Smith, who Ia scarcely twenty
years old, came to Nice and ex-
cited general wonder by her ex-
traordinary beauty and taste in
gowns.
She at once came under the So
cial patronage OF the Duke de
Moutebello. The old duke took
great pride in escorting the attrac-
tive Mrs. Smith about and show
ering attentions upon her. But he
was not permitted to long enjoy
undisputed the favor OF the fair
American. The project of the
Maritime Alps, Monsieur Jolly,
also became attracted by the
charms Of the lady and threw
down the gauntlet to the old man.
Then began contest in earnest.
The weapons used were boxes for
the opera, teas, dances, receptions
and balls, all in Mrs. Smith
honor. The spirit o. contest be-
came so intense that society was
divided by the counter entertain
ments, and It bids fair to see the
factions displaying the colors OF
the rival knights.
In the meanwhile Mrs. Smith g
endurance is being taxed to the ut
most by the society requirements
forced upon her. With such So
cial launching and a divorce from
her husband near at hand 1t will
not be surprising IL another inter-
national marriage is soon an
nounced.

sprinkled the poison over the car

Municipal Affairs
LYON OUTLINES PLAN
FOR BIG CITY RANCH
ADVOCATES MUNICIPAL HAY
FIELD ALONG AQUEDUCT
Says Municipality Could Harvest Feed
at SIS a Ton Where Now
the City Pays
$3.50

\ municipal hay field on which hay
could be raised for So ton and de-
livered at Los Angeles at a total cost
of about IS a ton is Il plan that is
buzzing around in Councilman Lyon s
busy brain. He outlined a little scheme
on the council at its meeting yesterday
morning, and while it was received
more in Jest than earnest Lyon will
push the idea.
Lyon points out that the city owns
thousands of acres of land in the Owens
valley which it acquired in purchasing
water rights and that enough hay could
be raised to supply all the municipal
wants of Los Angeles and have large
quantity left over to sell.
When the council made the inspection
Of the owens river conduit Lyon says
the farmers in the valley told him and
City Auditor Mushet they could raise
the best quality of hay for S. ton.
Some hay is being raised by the aquo-
duct department, but this department
is concerned with more important things
and does not devote much of its time to
Tanching.
The high price of good quality hay is
the reason advanced for a municipal
hay field The lowest price quoted to
the city for $50 tons of barley hay to be
bought with $3.50 tons of oat hay was
S15.19. Hay bids were opened Tuesday,
and when Councilman Wallace heard
them read he declared he had that
morning purchased hay for SIS a ton.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Wallace cor
rected his statement and said that the
SIS a ton he had paid for hay was not
delivered, but T. o. b. cars. He had to
pay extra for delivery.

LAVENTHAL CHARGES TRIED
BUT NO VERDICT RENDERED
Accusations Against Foreman of the
Fire Department Paint Shop Are
Taken Under Advisement

The charges of j. H. Palmer, en-
ploye of the fire department paint
shop, against Henry Laventhal, fore
man of the paint shop, were tried be-
fore the fire commission yesterday
morning and the matter taken under
advisement A number of spectators
who heard the evidence did not think
Palmer had made a good case against
his chief and it is confidently pre-
dicted the charges will be dismissed

workman and Chief Lips declares he
Is the best striper in Los Angeles.
Palmer charged that LaVenthal had
PAINTED vehicles for outside persons at
times when he should have been work
ing for the city and that he had used
the citys materials He also charged
that Laventhal had borrowed money
from him with no intention of return
ing it and that he had abused him
without cause.
The money and abuse charges were
easily disposed of and appeared to
have little foundation. Evidence was
introduced to show that LaVcnthal had
done work for outside persons, but that
1t had all been done outside working
hours and he produced receipted bills
to show that he had purchased ma
terial for the work.

Iced Drinks
Dangerous

The American people consume
during the hot weather a very
large quantity of iced drinks OF
various kinds and colors and pay
dearly for it with disOrdercd
stomachs that refuse to perform
their work; bowel complaints, eX-
haustion, congestion, sunstrokc
and many other ills follow, and
from these causes the loss OF life
is great. Doctors say all danger
can be prevented by the proper
use of a teaspoonlul OF Duffy 5
Malt Whiskey in each glass.
1t has been recommended and
used by ministers of the gospel
and temperance advocates and
prescribed by doctors OF every
school as an efIectual preventive
and cure of consumption, bron-
chitis, Indigestion, stomach trou-
bic, and all diseases OF the throat
and lungs.
Duffy's Pure Malt Whisley is
an absolutely pure distillation OF
matted grain, great care being
used to have every kernel thor
oughly matted, thus producing 4
liquid food requiring no digestion
in the form Of a pharmaceutical
whiskey, which is one Of the most
effective tonic stiuulants and in
yigorators known to science. Its
palatability and freedom from in
furious substances render ii so
that it can be retained by the most
sensitive stomach.
If weak and run down, take a
teaspoonful four times day in
half a glass of milk or water.

NO PEACE FOR
''SOLID THREE
WAR DECLARED BY MEMBERS
OF ADVISORY BOARD
BOARDS OF DIRECTORS OF CIVIC
BODIES TO MEET MONDAY
This Action Decided on at Meeting
of Men Sighted by Supervisors
at Chamber of Commerce
Yesterday

Very much in earnest and apparent
Iy somewhat veXed by their grievance,
the members of the advisory commit
tee of the good roads commission
emerged from secret conference in
the Chamber of Commerce building yes
terday afternoon and announced that
they are in the fight to stay. The
slight offered them by the county
board of supervisors has not been for
gotten, nor do the members intend to
"lie down" Several of them admitted
that they will not capitulate.
The only formal action taken, as Tar
as is known, was the adoption Of a
resolution asking the boards of di-
rectors of the four organizations prin-
cipally interested in this fight to meet
next Monday afternoon at o'clock in
the directors room of the chamber of
commerce to discuss the next step to
be taken. These bodies are the cham
Der of commerce, Merchants and
Manufacturers association, Municipal
league and the Good Roads association
of Southern California.
There will be no representatives OF
delegations. The meeting will be one
of the consolidated boards of directors.
1t is asserted this can mean but one
thing-a question of fight.
Whether at the meeting Monday 1t
will be decided to back the advisory
committee in its determination to make
an organized war on the recalcitrant
board remains to be seen. If they VIII
not do so another meeting of the COM
mittee will be called to discuss ways
and means for a campaign of their
own. 1t is believed that the civic or
ganizations interested will join in the
fray with enthusiasm.
At the meeting yesterday there We're
delegates from each Of the four bodies
named together with practically all
the members of the advisory commit
tee. They were in conference for two
hours and it is reported were not al
together in harmony on certain points.
But whatever their differences on
minor issues. they admit they were
agreed TO stand for war against the
Supervisors.

STORM SEWERS ARE
CAUSE OF PROTEST
CITIZENS ON MONTE VISTA
STREET AROUSED
Pico Heights Residents Also Preparing
to Make Objection to the
Proposed Drainage
There

one of the largest protests against a
public Improvement ever presented i'm
Los Angeles was filed with the city
clerk yesterday. The protest is against
the main storm sewer and laterals on
Monte Vista street between Avenues
Forty-nine and Fifty-nine. The pro-
test is Noluminous and the signers de-
clare they have 50,537 feet of frontage
Of the assessment district. This repre-
sents nearly ten miles Of frontage, and
if correct will knock out the proposed
sewer
Another protest just as large is ex-
peCted from property owners in the as
sessment district for the PicO street
storm sewer. A protest is being circu-
lated in Pico Heights and is being
numerously signed. The property own
ers i'm Pico Heights feel that since Pico
street has been paved the storm water
is well cared for and they do not feel
they should be called on to assume the
expense of a storm drain.
