turquoise is suspected to exist are
broken into pieces small enough to
determine whether or not they carry
marketable gems These comparatively
small pieces of turquoise rock are
taken from the mine to a specially
arranged sorting room having a cell
ing of white cheese-cloth and white
window shades. where the rock frag-
ments are dumped on tables covered
with oil cloth. The work OF sorting
is done under the watchful eye Of
the superintendent, in order that no
valuable stones may be appropriated
by the w~orkingmen, who are usually
MeXicans.
The turquoise mines for the past
one or two years in New Mexico have
been worked only in . small way

LAP. RAILWAY
MADE TO YIELD
FLYER" SERVICE TO SANTA
MONICA TO BE RESUMED
ORDINANCE WHICH REPEALED
FRANCHISE is KILLED
Company Agrees to Make Stops as
Requested-SettIeme of Diff
ferences Satisfactory to
Citizens

SANTA MONICA, Jan. 25.-Hostlll-
ties between the city council and the
Los Angeles Pacific Railway company
were declared off this evening when
a communication was presented to the
council by Mayor Dudley informing
that body the company had agreed to
resume the short line flyer" service
Wednesday morning.
The action of the railroad company
was contingent on the repeal of the
ordinance declaring the company 5
franchise forfeited. The ordinance was
returned to the council by the mayor
with recommendation that action be
reconsidered. This was done and the
chief executives veto being sustained,
the ordinance died a natural death.
The company agrees to stop all Saw
telle, WeStgate and local cars at all
established stops and to run one car an
hour on the short line" Two cars an
hour will be run by way of the short
line" and they will make only a limited
number of stops between Pier avenue
and North Beach.
The action of the company puts the
service back where it originally was.
and appears to be satisfactory to all
concerned.
The ordinance presented at the last
meeting of the council and passed to
the mayor for his signature was re-
turned unsigned. This ordinance
would have cut the merchandise tax
so per cent. Another ordinance which
abOliSheS this tax was introduced The
council sustained the mayor in his veto
of the first measure and passed the lat
ter. This action does not affect license
taxes that come under police regula-
ton.

EXCEEDS SPEED LIMIT TO
BID HIS DAUGHTER G0ODBY

PASADENA, Jan. 25.-To bid his lit
tie girl goodby, ]. K. Stewart, a
wealthy business man of Chicago,
braved the local police motorcycle
force and smashed few speed laws in
quiet Pasadena yesterday morning.
Due to catch the limited for Chicago,
leaving at 1925 o'clock, Mr.. Stewart
waited for the train until the last
minute. Still his daughter did not re-
turn to her home from a morning visit
she was paying. The time was stretched
to the limit and then Mr. Stewart or
dered the chauffeur TO cast off his
moorings and sail for the station. The
chauffeur sailed.
On the way Mr.. Stewart found his lit
tie daughter. The car was stopped and
the farewell kiss given by the hurry
ing father.
Again the mad rush to the station
was resumed, this time at a forty
mile clip. Two specks appeared in the
wake of the flying motor car They
drew up slowly and then, in the Ian
guage of the dime novel, swooped
down on their prey.
The specks proved to be Motorcycle
officers Nichol and Slade and the
speeding millionaire was put under
arrest for violating the speed laws.
Hurriedly a hearing was held in the
road and it was arranged that Mr..
Stewards chaffeu- should appear for
him.
The chauffeur told the story in the
police court this morning and Judge
Mcdonald took the case under advise
ment.
Mr.. Stewart caught the train and is
now on his way to Chicago.
