announced in the Sunday paper

asked irrelevantly.
Beth laid down the paper In disgust.
You're changing, Nell Stafford, " she
said sternly, and not for the better
You used to be crazy over fixing up
this little fat. Now all you think of
Is clothes, and you know we agreed
that clothes shouldn't count until we
got everything We wanted In the way
VI household furnishings"
But there's no end to It, Beth" Nell
pleaded. The fat looks well enough.
In fact, it's beginning to look better
than we do. It's time we began to live
Gp to our surroundings"
Il suppose you mean Dick Wheeler"
Beth interpreted. Il notice he consti-
tUtes your surroundings most Of the
time"
Nell ignored the innuendo.
Everything 1 possess is old fashion
ed and unbecoming," she continued.
i've been awfully patient, Beth; real

AS Nell grew excited Beth became
cGlmer.
Considering what close friends we
are. Nell she said quietly, Il think
yen might tell me the truth"
Whereupon Nell, breaking into tears,
confessed her engagement

Beth pulled herself together heroical-

I but if you've got courage enough &c
commit matrimony after all we've said
against it, why, then l guess I've got
courage enough to carry out my con,
victions alone. Was it lace waists you
asked the price OFF,
This being the way Beth took the
news, Il was characteristic that she
pursued her original intention OF visit
Ing the furniture sale during her Mon
day noon hour.
She had Just settled down with an
air of relaxation in a green cushioned
morris chair, sale price $3.50" when
she was rudely startled out of It.
This is the only one we have with
green cushions, sir" salesman de-
clared pompously to some one on his
right bringing his hand down by way
OF emphasis upon the crown OF Beth's
hat.
Apologies, greetings and explanations
followed, during which the offending
salesman tactfully disappeared. 1t was
obvious that three made no party to
this chance meeting.
''Will business keep you in the city
longF' inquired Beth. The question In
dicated more courtesy than interest.
Gilbert Taylors eyes twinkled.
"It has kept me two years so far"
he answered soberly.
Il hadn't heard" Beth said rather
coldly.
"And your he asked. There was no
doubt that his interest was genuine.
"Ah, I'm an established household
err" Beth informed him with no little
show of pride. "A business chum and
1 have a little fiat together. That eI-
plains my monopoly OF this morris
chair. We need one, or, rather. we
want one. But I've just about decided
TO wait until can afford leather cush-

Gilbert agreed.
But Tn awfully interested in this
housekeeping experiment OF yours,
Elizabeth" he said earnestly. I'm
thinking of trying something Of the
sort myself. You can give me lot of
pointers. Take lunch with me, won't

Elizabeth hesitated. She saw comph-
cations ahead Nevertheless, because
there was no time TO analyze possible
she accepted.
"The lace waists" she explained TO
Nell that night. "were such wonderful
bargains that I got two OF them

CHAUFFEUR ACCUSED OF
GOING ON LONG JOY RIDE
Alleged That EmpIoye of Motor Car
Company Kept Machine Three
Days

Accused of having driven his en-
ployer's automobile on Joy ride eX-
tending three days, Ramon Corona, an
employe of the Western Motor Car
company, was arrested by Detectives
Zeigler and Mcnamara when the young
man appeared at the garage to re-
plenish his supply of gasoline. Corona
will be held in the city Jail until the
police have completed their investi-
cations.
According to the complaints made to
Deputy District Attorney Alexander,
Corona was given permission to take
the automobile out of the garage Sun
day afternoon for the purpose of DEM
onstrating the auto for a prospect We
purchaser. Nothing more was heard
of him that day and when he failed to
appear at the garage Monday morning
the police were notified.
Yesterday morning Corona appeared
at the garage for a fresh supply OF
gasoline and promptly was taken into
custody by the detectives.
The accused declares he was unable
to find the prospective buyer and took
some friends for a ride. Later he drove
the motor car out beyond Slauson
junction, became lost and was com
PEELED to pass Sunday night in the au-
tomobile. The police have different
opinion of the case and are making full
Investigations.
No charge has been preferred against
Corona, but it is probable he Will be
charged with taking an automobile
without the permission of the owner.

ALLEGES DEEP-LAID
PLOT, NOT ROMANCE
ASKS DIVORCE THREE MONTHS
AFTER ELOPEMENT
Advertising Agent for a San Diego
Hotel Says He Was puped into
Marriage at Los
Angeles

Bert C. Fricke, advertising agent
for the Hotel Robinson at San Diego,
who was arrested several months ago
in this city on a charge of eloping
with Miss Nellie Evans, at that time
said to be under legal age, and who
subsequently married the young wo-
man to escape prosecution, appeared
at the county courthouse yesterday
and obtained a certified copy of his
marriage license, which he will use
as evidence in divorce proceedings
which he has instituted at San Diego.
Fricke is a young German, who has
Travelled extensively. He is grad
uate of a prominent German university
and at one time was an instructor in
the German naval college. His uncle
is one of the largest stockholders in
the brewery at San Diego and owns
considerable real estate there.
"I was the victim of well-laid plot,
said Fricke in discussing his case. Il
finally learned that the woman had
been frequenting cafes and seven or
eight times she returned home intoxi-
Gated. Later 1 found out that her
real age is 23 years and that | was
roped in, inasmuch as the woman
married and her sister picked me out
as a likely victim because they thought
was wealthy.

HOLLYWOOD COMMITTEE
CALLS ON THE COUNCIL
Asks Concerning Sewage in Case oi
Consolidation with Los
Angeles

A committee of the Hollywood board
of trade visited the city council cham
ber yesterday for a twofold purpose
One object was to see what a legis-
lative body that in the future will
make the ordinances for Hollywood as
we'll as the rest of Los Angeles looks
like, and the other was to hear the
opinion of the city engineer concerning
question that had been raised by the
board of trade.
The board wanted to know If the Los
Angeles outfall sewer could take care
Of the Hollywood sewage in case of
consolidation. The city engineer re-
ported that the outfall was construct
ed for a population of 100000 and that
the extra sewage could easily be cared
for.
When it consolidates with Los An
geles Hollywood expects to build a
trunk line sewer to connect with the
outfall at it's own expense.

ASK THAT IMPROVEMENT
ORDINANCE BE MODIFIED
Realty Men Want Provision for
Cheaper Work in Recently
Annexed Districts

L. B. Burke, representing number
of real estate men, asked the city
council yesterday to take some steps
to change the specifications for street
work so that cheaper improvements
could be made on tracts of land for
merly outside the city but which have
been taken into the limits by the re-
cent annexation of territory He also
asked that the ordinance be modified
to provide that these tracts could be
accepted by the city even if the street
work was not.
Councilman Wren objected to ac-
cepting these tracts, because the city
will have to maintain the improve
ments if they are accepted, and this,
he said, will be a burden on the tax
payers.
The matter was referred to the board
of public works and the city attorney
to thresh out. The board has previ-
ously shown opposition to any modi-
fication of the Improvement specifica-
tions, as 1t was only after hard fight
that it succeeded in having the higher
standard adopted.

COMMITTEE OFFICIATES
AT OBSEQUlES OF BILLS
Solemn Interment of Progressive Leg
isIaton by Council Grave
yard Squad

There was rafting of dry bones in
the council chamber yesterday after
noon when the legislation committee
made it's triennial report. Usually the
LEGISLATION committee makes a bien-
NAL report, because two years is the
length of the councilmen's terms, but as
the term of this administration is fol
three years there was no apparent ne
cessity for such undue haste.
AS usual, the committee made nc
other recommendation than that all
the petitions and protests and other
matters that had been referred to il
be filed.
This committee, like the committee
of the whole, is a graveyard in which
the council enters everything that il
does not want to bother it's head
about or that it does not know what
else to do with. When the committee
is ready to report at the end of the
terms of office of it's members every
thing referred to it has become dead
issue,
