HOTEL WENTWORTH MAY
BECOME HOME FOR ELKS
Proposed to Make Over Unused Hos
tery for Use of Antlered
Tribe

PASADENA, May 24.-Will the large
Hotel Wentworth. with it's fine grounds
and its Moorish architecture, become
home for the Elks? 1t is question
which is being agitated and which VIII
probably come up before the national
convention of that order at the con-
vention in Los Angeles in July.
The suggestion is that of L. L. Ber-
tonneau, uncle of A. j. Bertonneau Of
the Pasadena board of trade, and is al
ready causing no little discussion
among the Elks of this city. The order
now embraces some 300 600 members in
the United States, and is one of the
leading benevolent orders in the world.
1t is proposed. in view of The fact that
the establishment of a home for weak,
i'll and aged members is being gener-
ally discussed throughout the order,
that no better place for such home
could be found than in Southern Cali
fornia, and that the Hotel Wentworth,
now idle in the hands of its owners
because of the bankruptcy proceedings,
which necessitated its being closed be-
fore it's completion. could be secured
as cheaply as the order could build Il
home of the kind it would want
The hotel would, beyond any ques-
ton. fill the needs of the society for
many years to come, as, with its hum
dreds of rooms, it is capable Of accom-
modating many more people than would
be liable to seek shelter under its roof
at one time.
In close trolley connection with the
cities of Los Angeles and Pasadena, the
hotel is ideally located for a home of
this kind, and the wide wings and big
windows, which admit sunshine to all
the rooms, would make it a splendid
place for the i'll or the aged. The sug-
gestion of Mr.. Bertonneau will receive
serious consideration, it is believed.

PASADENA, May 24.-The city COM
missioners today decided to accept the
invitation extended to them by the
John f. Godfrey post, G. A. r., and
take part in the Memorial day parade
to. be held Monday, May 81. Accom-
panied by the mayor they will prob
ably appear in a carriage.
One other feature Of todays meeting,
and one which may have an important
development in the police department,
was the application filed by Miss Eliz-
abeth Mann of 713 Temple street, Los
Angeles, for position as police ma
tron A matrOn has not been included
among the members of the Pasadena
police force up to the present time, and
while there are few women arrested in
this city, not more than a dozen in the
course Of a year, it has still been hard
for the police to provide for one when
an arrest is made. Chief Favour has
several times suggested the naming of
some person who understood the work
as a matron and having her live near
the station so that she could be avail
able at any time.

more upheld the contention of Gray
that the powers of the recorders court
are more limited than those of a JUS
tice of the peace and that in case like
that at bar, brought to collect a prom
issory note, the city recorder had no
jurisdiction.
