due to improperly fitted glasses The

PETITIONS COURT TO
GIVE Her. NEW HOME
Fifteen-Year-Old Girl Asks to Be
Taken from Under the
Charge of Her
M Mother

A strange appeal was made to Judge
Wilbur of the juvenile court yesterday
when Goldie Neff, 10 years of age, pc
titioned the court to take her from the
home of her mother, Mrs. Carrie Nott,
and place her in family where she will
he surrounded by influences that VIII
tend to make her q good woman.
Papa left mamma more than year
ago in san Francisco said the youth
ful applicant as she sat in the juVenllt
courtroom yesterday awaiting the ac-
ton of Judge Wilbur. He told several
friends if they wanted to know why nc
went away to ask me; that | knew the
Jason. | do know the reason, but have
never told it, Mamma has never
whipped me or treated me cruelty, but
| don't think her actions in other re-
spects are proper"
The dissatisfaction Of the girl with
her home life was first made known tC
Mrs. Virginia Heap, district visitor of
the Humane society, who received d
telephone message from Miss Neff late
in July asking that some action be
taken to take her from under her
mothers charge. The society placed
the girl i'm the home of Mrs Maggie
McAndiless, 629 San Julian street
where she remained several days. She
was then placed in the detention home
to await the decision of Judge Wilbur
to whom the matter was carried yes
terday.
owing to other proceedings in the
juvenile court the hearing on the girls
petition was continued to 2 o'clock to-
day. Accompanying Miss Neff's appli-
cation for a change of custodians is a
petition from Mrs. McAndiless asking
the court to appoint her guardian ol
the girl.

Jars filed with Vari-coored liquids pre-
pared by Coan for this purpose were
introduced as exhibits. Coan was com
mitted to the asylum at Patton inn

A reminder of the fight of L. f.

appeared several months ago after it
was discovered he had been involved
In numerous swindling schemes, was
had yesterday in the suit of Thomas
Ball against the Jones q Ryder Land
company, now defunct, TO obtain a
court judgement canceling a mortgage.
Unlike the many actions already in
stituted against the land company, tho

to pay a balance due on mortgage and
thus secure valid title to his home
In October, 1908, Ball gave the land
company a mortgage on his Hollywood
property for 1892. With the excep-
ton of $220 this money was repaid
Then Jones disappeared and Ball is at
a loss to find some person entitled to
receive the money. In his complaint
he asks the court to take charge of
the money, pay it to somebody and
order the mortgage Cancelled.

Everything was serene in Judge Da-

habeas corpus proceedings having for
their purpose the release from custody
of John H. Mackie, wanted in Ctncin-

feature, had taken place the night be
fore. The two warning factions
Charles Houillion, a Cincinnati detect
i've, and Detective Mcnamara of Los
Angeles on one side and four deputy
constabes on the other, greeted each
other pleasantly, which seemed quite
natural when it was learned that all
concerned in the fracas took part in a
