REFUSAL TO OBEY

AND PRISONER
Man Wanted on Burglary Charge Fails
TO Observe Warning to Keep
Away from Friend in
Trouble

John Salas is rejecting in a cell at
the city Jail whether it is better to
attend to his own business and remain
at libetry or to. interfere with the
police and occupy an apartment in the
Jail He was arrested late Saturday
night on a charge of burglary, all be-
cause he interfered when his friend
Clarence Crane, was arrested for
passing forged checks.
Crane was arrested by Executive
Secretary Lyle Pendegast several days
ago. Pendegast was passing a store
on South Main street when a clerk
rushed out and pointed to Crane and
declared the latter had just passed a
worthless check. Pendegast took Crane
into custody and then asked the ex-
cited clerk for more information. The
latter thrust a check into the officer S
hand and was about to return to the
store when Pendegast, seeking more
information, caught him by the arm
and informed him he would have to
go to the police station and explain the
circumstances. The clerk demonstrated
and declared he would not do so.
Pendegast detained him, and while
holding both men and waiting at a
patrol box. Salas appeared and sought
to converse with Crane.
Wanted on Burglary Charge
Salas was told to keep away, but
failed to obey, and was forcibly re-
moved by Pendegast, who having his
hands full with the two men, was un-
able to take Salas into custody.
At the police station Crane, when
questioned, told the name of his friend

The Locomobile continued on it's way

the Loco would have to finish the 300

of the automobile world every effort
was made to get the injury repaired,
but failed, when former Mayor Haz-
ard OF Los Angeles, who was at the
track with his wife in their car, a
duplicate of the racing machine, prof
fered to Slaughter the use of his car to
re-enter the race if Leavitt, his rival,
would permit it.
Leavitt told him he had no objections,

Slaughter against the, Locomobile for

HARBOR WEDDING
LEADERS IN CONSOLIDATION
SUGGEST INNOVATION
John T. Gaffey Says Lesson of Har-

Generations

A ceremony to be perpetuated here
after as symbolical of the wedding" of
Los Angeles and the harbor is being
urged as a part of the Harbor day fete
to be held in celebration of the CONSOLE
dation elections.
M. H. Newmark, Stoddard Jess and
other speakers in the consolidation
campaign referred to the proposed
union as resulting from courtship by
Los Angeles started nearly a quarter of
a century ago, and the idea frequently
was brought up in the course of the
campaign.
"I think somethig symbolizing the
wedding of the commercial interests Of
Los Angeles and the port opportunities
at the harbor, which consolidation
brought about, ought to be made an
annual celebration in the harbor," said
John T. Gaffey of the San Pedro con-
solidation committee yesterday. "It is
in fact a wedding, as was said during
the campaign, and is fully as worthy if
not a great deal more So of impressive
ceremonies as anything that inspired
the old doges of Venice.

eager hands, with wrencheS, had the
top, tonneau. hood and every article
removable from it off in short order,
and Soules and his mechanician. We're
soon bowling along at their old clip.
In fact the best part of the race was
after Soules gallantly sped the pleasure
car of the former mayor at the racing
clip set by it's injured sister car.
While the Stearns was down Orr
with his Locomobile was reeling Off
miles on the record book, until he was
more than forty-fiVe ahead of his rival.
The time of the winner-the Loco
mobile-was 6:43:07. The Stearns made
the 243d mile as the Locomobile crossed
the line, in the time of 6:42:511a.
Slaughter, the Stearns agent, took
his defeat philosophically, and while
it cost him something like $1,000, $4,000
of which went to Mr.. Leavitt he said:
You can never tell about these acci-
dents. They might come at once, and
might never happen; and I would run
the Locomobile again tomorrow morn
ing for $4,000. We had this race. in
our pocket when Soules was six miles
ahead, and increasing the distance con-
tinually, but we lost, and that is all
there is to It."
Naturally the Leavitt camp was in
high glee, congratulations pouring in
on the big automobile man in pro-
fusion. Slaughter, it is understood,
gave a check for $500 each to his drivers
as a gift, win or lose, and another
thousand among his corps of assist
ants for their loyalty.

Stearns, and Diamonds on the Loco
mobile.

that Salas is former convict and is
wanted on a charge of entering the
room of a friend and stealing $50.
Detectives who were working on the
case were told the circumstances of the
interference of Salas and they effected
his arrest Saturday night.
Crane stated that Salas was not in
any way connected with the passing of
the forged checks, which were issued
on the commissary department of the
aqueduct, but the police believe the
latter was attempting to obtain pos
session of several other alleged worth
less checks which Crane had in his
pockets when searched at the police
station.
A complaint against Salas probably
will be issued today.

ami he will tell you that he believes in
God more firmly than ever before, be-
cause he understands better what God
! is and he sees more clearly what is
mans relation to God. He will also
| tell you that his faith in Christianity
was never so strong as it is today be-
cause 1t brings him richer blessings in
the present and promises more for the
future. Who can say to such an one,
Your faith Is vain, or, You do not be-
lieVe what you profess? He knows in
whom he has believed and he has with
in himself the assurance that his faith
is not in vain.
When he recalls how he was restored
to perfect health after the physicians
had said there was no hope; when he
remembers how at one time there was
not even a silver lining to the dark
cloud above him, and now he has health
and the dark clouds have disappeared
and he rejoices in the glorious sunlight
of Gods unchanging love, is it any
wonder that he eXclaims in the Ian
guage of the Psalmist, Surely good
ness and mercy shall follow me all the
days of my life; and I will dwell in
the house of the Lord foreVer?" This
has been the experience of thousands.
That Christian Science heals after all
material means have failed is no longer
an open question. That is has brought

PROGRESS SHOWN BY
MAGAZINE OF INDIANS
Recently Issued Volume of Carlisle
Students Gives Interesting
Data About the ABB
origines

The Carlisle Indian school at Car
lisle, Pa, has recently issued it's In
teresting magazine, the Indian Crafts
man, illustrative of the work of the
school and the Indians who have come
under it's care. The magazine is not
only about Indians but is mainly by
Indians and deals extensively with the
Indian crafts and legends
The magazine is profusely illustrated
with halftone cuts of the school and
drawings and sketches by students
from the Native Art department of
the school which show marked ability
and much study along the significance
of Indian characteristics. The cover
of the June issue, by Lone STAR" Is
particularly deserving of high praise.
Extracts from personal letters by
Commissioner Leupp regarding Indian
dances are the leading articles for the
June issue. The following sentiment
by the commissioner is also given a
place of honor:
THE Indian is natural warrior, a
natural logician a natural artist We
have room for all three in our highly
organized and social system. Let us
not make the mistake, in the process
of absorbing them, of washing OUT
whatever is distinctively Indian. Our
aboriginal brother brings as his con-
tribution to the common store OF char-
acter great deal which is admirable
and which needs only to be developed
along the right line Our proper work
with him is improvement, not trans
formation"
The books are of interest not only
to those who have been connected with
the work among the Indians but to
those interested in the present and
future status of the red man.

Ala, which stated: 1.-The state or coun-
ty pays me nothing. l make between
$4,000 and $4,000 a year. This is in re-
ward for negroes who are needed to
work. l can take up anybody on suspl-
cion." With due allowance for local
conditions, 1t is pretty much the same
wherever the fee system is in operation.
One Universal Feature
We have taken up the trail at the
start, where there are no complications
and 1t can be easily read. Were it to
be followed to the county jail and the
sheriff's office, where the. administra-
ton of both the civil and criminal law
is burdened with an endless succession
of fees, every one of which denies jus
tice to the poor man and makes it the
monopoly of the rich, the tracking
might be more difficult but the result
would be identical-an entire class pc
cuniarily interested in depriving their
fellow beings of liberty, The situation
unquestionably is not ideal.
Meanwhile reformers and thoughtful
people write papers and deliver ad-
dresses. They show how the figures of
criminal convictions mount with every
industrial depression, and trace cause
and effect. They deplore the congested
condition of our cities and explain the
necessity of the worker getting back
to the country and the land. They
criticise the arrangements of our city
and county jails, in which the innocent,
the juvenile and the first offender are
herded cheek by jowl with the hardened
criminal, the chronic drunk or tramp,
all the flotsam and jetsam that one
sided civilization carries on its current.
They declare these conditions must not
exist one moment longer, and they de-
clare 1t so Vociferously that now and
again some paper takes the question up
and creates an ephemeral sensation by
writing up jail with sickening fidelity.
On the other hand conservatives swell
the chorus with laments over the in
creasing tendency to discomfort and
violence manifested by the workers.
They ignore, the fact that we have
passed through a long series of revolu-
tionary Industrial changes, producing
unsettled conditions that have thrown
huge armies of men out of work. 1t is
not pleasant to be anxious to earn a
living and to find the opportunity
closed. Enforced idleness invariably
produces a mental irritation that is
fruitful of disturbance, and on the top
of this inevitable bitterness comes the
country constable, "for revenue only,
anxious to make his living out of his
mileage and fees, and arrests the man
who harks back to the country and in
dustriously canvasses it in search of
work.
The Prison Reform league has said
repeatedly that the attitude of society
to the discharged convict is absurd. So
is the condition we have been consider
ing in this letter, and 1t Is self-evident
that 1t will continue, despite all the
lamentations of the reformers, so long
as we continue a system that makes
one mans existence depend on running
another into jail.
Perhaps there is one other fact that
is even more absurd, and that is the
callousness with which labor organiza-
tions contemplate this fee system. For
their membership furnishes by far the
larger proportion of its victims.

TRUE CHRISTIANITY
BESTOWS ALL GOOD
ON ITS FOLLOWERS
OLD IDEA IS MISC0NCEPTION
OF RELIGION
Science Teaches That Faith Takes
Away None of the Joy and satis-
faction of Living in the
Present

The religion taught by Jesus Christ
was intended to bring joy and glao-
ness into the lives of men, not at solle
futllre time nor at some distant place,
but here and now. For God sent not
His son into the world to condemn the
world; but that the world through hllu
might be saved" Humanity has every
thing to gain by the advancement or
the true idea of Christianity. In the
past Christianity has been too often
looked on as that which prepares oIl''
for death and insures a happy ana
harmonious existence beyond tae
grave. But while believing that IL
prepares one for the future some have
believed that 1t takes away much 81
the ioy and satisfaction of living In
the present. Some may have regard
ed the Christian life as life of sacrl-
flee and trial with no present reward
but this was due to a misconception
of the character and mission of Chris
tianity. When this false sense gives
place to the true it is seen that true
religion bestows all good on its fol-
lowers and takes away nothing which
they should desire to keep.
Jesus mission was to give to the
world the true idea of God-What lie
is and what He can do and will O.
for humanity. The thought of servin5
God because of love for the good and
because it brings the greatest joy and
satisfaction appeals to Christian
Scientists as the all-sufficient reason
for endeavoring to live according to
the preceprs of the Sermon on the
Mount.
Right to Expect Joy
When fear of God gives place to the
understanding that God is Love, 1t Is
seen that "He is a rewarder Of them
that diligently seek him" Then neither
the fear of punishment nor the hope of
future reward is the motive which in
spires one to serve the Giver of every
good and perfect gift. The fact that
such service is most graciously re-
warded today is a sufficient reason for
accepting and putting into practice the
teachings of the Master.
Paul declared that the kingdom of
God is righteousness and
peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
Jesus said, 1.-THE kingdom of God is
within you" The Psalmist sang, I'm
thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy
right hand there are pleasures for
evermore." If these sayings are true
then the Christian has a right to ex-
pect peace and joy and harmony and
satisfaction, here and now.
Since Christianity offers so much fo1
the present as well as the future, the
teaching that presents Christianity in
a clearer light and makes it more prac-
tical deserves the most thoughtful con-
sideration That Christian Science is
accomplishing a great work in this re-
spect thousands of witnesses testify. II
brings God nearer to human eXper-
ience, or rather it declares and proves
that God is always here, an ever
present help. 1t shows how it is pos
sible for man to trust God implicitly
and to know that He does help in every
time Of need.
Ask any person who understands
| Christian Science if he believes in Goo
