MAYOR STICKS TO
POST ELECTION DAY
HEARS ARGUMENTS OVER CITY
HALL SITE
Purchase of Temple Block Endorsed
in Resolutions Passed by Mer-
chants and Manufacturers
Association

Although yesterday was election oay
and every other candidate was out do
ing politics, Mayor Alexander stuck to
his post and passed the entire day at
tending to the citys business.
A large part of his day was taken up
by opposing real estate men, one fac
ton trying to persuade the mayor to
veto the contract for the purchase of
the Temple block for a city hall site
and the other offering arguments to
show that the site selected was the
logical one. The mayor spoke favor
ably of the Temple block site yester-
day, but would give no assurance OF
what he proposed to do when the con-
tract reaches him, which will not be
for a week or ten days more.
The Merchants and Manufacturers
association added it's Endorsement to
the selection of the Temple block when
the board of directors of the organiza-
ton met yesterday in special meeting
and passed resolutions approving the
councils action. The chamber of
commerce approved the matter at a
ganization Tuesday.
The resolution of the Merchants and
Manufacturers association follows:
Whereas, the honorable city council
has decided to purchase the property
known as the Temple block for a city
hall site for a consideration of $500 GOO
of which $125,000 is to be raised an ens
the citizens;
Therefore, be it resolved by tle
borad of directors of the Merchants
and Manufacturers association, that
we approve said action of the coun-
ell and believe it to be to the best in-
terests of this city to locate a new eity
hall at the place designated, therehy
concentrating the federal, county and
city buildings"

MAKES ATTEMPT
TO TAKE POISON
UNREQUITED LOVE CAUSES
GIRL TO WISH TO DIE
SWEETHEART PREVENTS SUICIDE
BEING SUCCESSFUL
Young Woman Is Rushed to Receiving
Hospital, Where 1t Is Said She
Will Recover-Man Held
on Suspicion

Unrequited love is the cause given by
Miss Annie OJeson, 20 years old, for her
Intellectual attempt at suicide at her
room, 535 Wall street, last night when
she drained the contents Of a tWo-ounce
vial containing a by-product OF car
bolic acid.
At the receiving hospital Miss Oleson
stated she came from Salt Lake City
a week ago at the solicitation of Will
liam Clements, with whom she said she
has been living since her arrival in this
city.
She declared that she is tremendously
in love with Clements, and that she
understood he intended to make her
his wife on her arrival in Los Angeles.
No sooner had she reached this city,
however, than she says she became
convinced he had lured her here for
immoral purposes, and watching him,
she declares she saw him acting sus-
piciously with other girls.
When she came to a realization of
what her life seemed to be destined to
be with Clements, Miss Olcsen says she
decided it would not be worth the liv-
ing in such conditions, and determined
to end it all.
Much as she had loved Clements and
believed in him, she could not permit
herself to forget the early teachings of
her mother. who admOnished her to be
q good girl, and so she thought death
preferable to life in such circumstances.
She purchased small bottle of
drug similar to carbolic acid. she
locked the door to her room, and throw
ing the keys out of the window, pre-
pared to drink the poison. Just as she
placed the vial containing the drug to
her lips Clements entered through an
unlocked door from an adjoining room
and knocked the bottle from her lips.
AS a result the poison came into con-
tact with her face, her hands and her
arms, and she was burned painfully.
Very little of the drug was swallowed,
and there is no danger of her dying,
according to the physicians at the re-
ceiving hospital, where she was hurried
as soon as Clements realized what she
had tried to do.
He hurried to the receiving hospital
with her, and as soon as Chief Dish
man was informed of the case he or
dGred that Clements be held at the sta
tion on suspicion until Miss Oleson be-
comes able to make a more detailed
statement.

BURDETTE DENIES HE
WILL ACCEPT CHARGE
SAYS "PAST0R EMERITUS" is
GOOD ENOUGH FOR HIM
Declares He Has No Intention of leav-
ing Temple Baptist and Assuming
Passionate of the Pasadena
Church

Rev. Robert ]. Burdette in brief
address given at Temple Baptist
church last evening denied he intended
to throw aside title of pastor emeritus
of the Temple church and would ac-
cept a pastorate in Pasadena.
Mr.. Burdette said in part:
"Some of you, hear, have been
disturbed at a story printed in morn
ing paper stating that / had decided
to throw aside the title of pastor emer-
titus, with which l was honored by
you,' and that 1 would return to the
pulpit as pastor of the West Side Con-
gregational church in Pasadena.
There is not a particle of truth in
such a statement. The pastorate of
no church in Pasadena has been Of
fered me. There has been no talk of
pastorate with me. 1t has never
been under consideration. 1 am not
going to sit down, the remaining years
of my life, and do nothing. will
preach once in a while, lecture occa-
sionally, write a little more than l
will preach and lecture, l expect to
travel a great deal. But since ! re-
tired from the active pastorate of Tenn
Pile church 1 never have thought of
another pastorate. 1 never will accept,
or even consider, any other, anywhere,
under any conditions or circumstances,
or any inducement.
How could l lay aside my beloved
title of pastor emeritus even should
so desire-which / never will?
Emeritus was originally applied to a
soldier who had served his time and
honorably retired from service. Well,
now, how could he undo that? The
title is a gift to me from the church
that l love more dearly than 1 love
life. 1 would not, if / could, exchange
it for any other in the gift of men.
Just remember that whenever you
hear any talk about my accepting an
other pastorate anywhere. Don't be-
lieve it until you can verify the story
in the Encyclopedia Britannica"

conditions insisted on by investors.
These essentials are ample, inexhaust-
ible water supply, the richest soil the
state can boast, the right geographical
location, perfect transportation facil-
tiles and planting on scale that will
produce a forest able to command ev-
cry commercial advantage to the lum-
ber markets.
when such conditions exist, aided
by the most scientific cultivation and
care until maturity, the returns from
eucalyptus surpass even the most SAN
