Chamber of Commerce and Leading
Merchants of Town to Give Away
Inducements for Beauti-
flcation of City
[specIaI to The HeraId.l

REDONDO, BEACH, Oct, eff this
city doesn't find itself in position next
spring to boast of some of the most
state it will not be from lack of in
ducement offered property owners and
tenants. The civic improvement COM
mittee of the chamber of commerce is
conducting a contest in which Valu-
able prizes are to be awarded those
entered who can show the greatest per
cent of improvement in their lawns by
May l, 1910.
The committee is composed of prom
inent citizens of Redondo Beach, In
cluding the Rev. w. P. Hardy, H.
FEEDER, w. F. Sprinkle, A. M. Brooks
and ]. H. Cavanah. All of these men
are active in the upbuilding of the city.
No entries in the contest will be al
lowed after November Is. A large num-
ber have already filed out the blanks
and declared their intention of working
hard to win one or more of the prizes.
This competition originated with the
civic improvement committee ana is IN
tended to encourage the planting OF
lawns and shrubbery, which are almost
a luxury in many of the beach cities
1t is especially hoped by members OF
the committee that tenants will par
ticipate in the contest and aid in beau
tifying the grounds around the houses
in which they live. One of the mem
bers said today that this would be one
of the greatest civic improvements that
could be made in Redondo Beach 70
day.
Disinterested persons from Los Anr
geles will be invited to Judge the con-
test and will make three inspections
during its progress. The first tnspec-
tion will be made of the lawns after
the time of entering expires the second
will be made some time in the winter
and the third will be made just pre-
vious to the close of the competition.
Eight cash prizes and an equal num-
ber of useful articles in caring for
lawns, such as lawn mowers and gar
den hose, will be given away by the
committee. There are three classes OF
entries-class A, for grounds showing
the greatest Improvement; class B, for
best kept grounds on lots of 50-foot
frontage or less, and class c, for best

said Mr.. Gregson, Los Angeles mer-
chants would carry stocks in ware
houses at San Pedro and would make
an effort to get some of the business
of Mexican and Central American
ports, as we'll as Hawaii. Unfortu-
natelv the local rate between Los An
geles and San Pedro prohibits Los An
geles merchants entering the field
against San Francisco merchants,
who take full advantage of the termi-
nal rates there"
Mr.. Jones denied that there was
water competition at San Pedro, but
admitted there was in Los Angeles by
reason of the rate granted by the Santa
.Fe between Los Angeles and San Diego
for the benefit of the American Ha-
waiian company.

BOY IS BELIEVED TO
HAVE BEEN KIDNAPPED
POLICE SUSPECT MOTHER OF
COMPLETELY
Pupil at Ann Street School Is Called
from PIaymates and Whlsked
Away - Parents Are
Separated

1t is believed by the police depart
ment that Frank Farreliy, years old,
a pupil at the Ann street school, was
kidnapped Thursday morning by two
women, heavily yelled in black, and
that one of the women was the mother
of the youngster, who for several years
has been separated from her husband.
Young Farrelly has been living with
his father and grandmother at IL
West Ann street since the separation
of husband and wife, and strategy was
used in enticing the youngster from
his playmates
The two women went to the Ann
street school Thursday morning and
approached a little boy, an attendant
of the school, and asked him to tell
frankie that his aunt wished to see
him to direct her to his grand
mothers house, that of Mrs. E. KEEL
ley, 122 West Ann street.
Frank quickly responded, and in
company with the two women started
across the East Main street bridge.
When he realized he was not going in
the direction of his grandmother
home he struggled to get away from
the women and his screams for help
attracted a crowd.
He was seized bodily and placed
aboard a car, and it Is believed he was
taken to San Bernardino, where his
mother is supposed to have lived since
her separation from her husband.
It is said that Mrs. Farrelly Is a
half-breed Mexican and has conducted
a rooming house in San Bernardino
for several years, to which place the
boy is supposed to have been taken.
The youth, who is alleged to have
been kidnapped, wore a white shirt
waist, knee pants and light colored
cap.
That he accompanied the two mys-
terious women against his wishes is
the report received by the police, and
efforts are being made to apprehend
the trio at San Bernardino.

peculiar accidents that ever happened
to vlayer. McGaughey was at bat
and Fred Moore, who is now with the

Moore started to throw the ball to the
plate, but it rolled from his hand and
along the ground back of the batter
His arm dropped helplessly to his side
and, knowing that something was
wrong, players rushed to his side and
found that he had snapped the bone of
his pitching arm above the elbow
Moore explained the accident by say.
ing that as he started the ball his
catcher changed the signal and in his
efforts to change the kind of ball the
sudden twist snapped the bone. Moore
