There they will remain pending their

to give them little concern.
In connection with their apprehension

guilty. If the changes are investigated
and pushed he may be arrested on a

STATE INDUSTRIAL FARM
FOR PRISONERS AGITATED
Leader of Movement Points Out That
California Is Spending 100000
Annually on Inmates of
JaiIs

G. L. Robertson of 123 South Broad
way has started an agitation for a
state industrial farm, where prisoners
may be placed to work out their terms
on a farm which would be self-sup-
porting.
Mr.. Robertson said in regard to the
subject:
THE vagrancy law now in force in
California since I have resided here
some tWenty-four yearS-has always
been an unjust law and has been the
means of making many hardened GRIM
inals instead of helping any one Did
you ever stop to think how unjust it
is to arrest man simply because he
has no money, no friends and is out
of work? Just put yourself in his
place, will you? Surely the punish
ment is much greater than the offense.
First give man a chance to work
The failing of men for being idle with
out giving them employment is an out
rageous practice, wholly wrong, in
human, thoroughly un-American, a dis
grace to our state and nation
Our jails are crowded to overlooking
all over the state. We are spending
about one million dollars a year to iaiI
and feed the unfortunate class. Call
them by whatever name you will they
need helping hand. Why not spend
at least part of this vast amount to
buy and equip state industrial farm.
where any man out of work could go
and be well fed and we'll treated. where
men could be helped to a better life.
where man could regain new inspira-
tions and learn how to work? The
state has everything to gain and moth
Ing to lose by such an enterprise"

geles city gets three Of the winners,

Gold Sinks Into Vault
One million dollars in virgin gold that
will sink automatically every night into
steel vault, to reappear with the
same precision in the morning will be
the central feature Of the Alaska ex-
hibit at the Alaska-Y ex-
position. Piled in glittering heaps Of
D11iIldnI
display will be one of the greatest at
fractions. The gold pavilion, where
the million dollars will be on display,
will be inclosed with a heavy wire
cage, and special guards will patrol
the section night and day.
The large steel vault, built in solid
concrete, will operate automatically
on time lock. Each night at the clos
ing hour the two tons Of gold will dis
appear and the steel and concrete top
Will slide into place, leaving nothing
in view but the smooth surface of the
floor. The time lock will be set for
the opening hour in the morning, when
the treasure will reappear. The con-
struction Of this vault will cost $4,000
Can Handle Nuggets
In the gold exhibit are three of the
largest nuggets ever found in Alaska
They were taken from the famous Pho
neer mine at Nome, and the total value
of the three is slightly in excess OF
$1,000. 1t is proposed to have the largest
Of these three nuggets arranged so that
visitors may pick it up and the big vel
low lump will pass through thousands
of hands during the exposition.
The Alaska fair commission has al
ready secured the dust, nuggets and
gold bricks for the display, and it will
be arranged in the gold pavilion of
the Alaska building several days in
advance of the opening of the exposi-
ton on June 1. A portion of the gold
is now in safety deposit vaults in Sc
attic.
Every claim and prospect in the four
divisions of Alaska contributed not
less than an ounce of gold to the dis
play, and the Seward peninsula, Ia
mana river, Copper river and Southeast
ern Alaska districts are all represent
ed. In addition to the gold, many OF
the mine owners of the Nome and
Fairbanks camps will also have sam
pies of pay dirt, gravel, bedrock and
black sand.

CAR HITS AGED MAN:
DEATH MAY RESULT
VICTIMS LEG FRACTURED;
OTHER INJURIES
Believe Approach of Car Was Not
Heard, as Unfortunate Is Deaf,
and Whistles and Gong
Were Sounded

Robert Thompson, p years old, living
near Benkert station on the Playa del
Rey line of the Los Angeles Pacific
railroad, was struck by an inbound
Venice car near his home at 10 ocolck
last night and probably fatally injured.
Thompson, who is deaf and feeble,
was walking on the right of way and
probably did not hear the approach of
the car or the warning whistles and
bells. He was tossed from the track
and his left leg was fractured at the
thigh. his left arm at the shoulder and
his scalp was cut.
The car was stopped and the injured
man placed on board and taken to the
receiving hospital at the city Jail. Drs
Quint, BOnynge and Chamberlain re-
duced the fractures and sewed up the
wound on his head.
Owing to the nature of the injuries
and the age of the man the surgeons
express but little hope of his recovery.
