BLAMED 1T ALL ON
MEAN CARBURETER'
Miss Irene BuIger, M. E., Also Actress,
Explains How All of Her
Troubles with Police
Occurred

NEW YORK, July 19.-"It was all
the fault of that mean old carbureter,
which got mixed up with lot of hor-
rid sparkling plugs, and don't you think
the hats women are wearing this sum-
mer look awfully funny from behind?
This was the way Miss Irene Bull
ger, the vaudeville actress, explained
why her new automobile refused TO
start after she had given bail at the
West One Hundredth street police sta
tion, having been arrested for speed
ing. And If any one should know
what was the matter with the ma
chine it is Miss Bulger because she
has the degree of mechanical engineer
presented by correspondence school at
Easton, Pa,
Miss Bulger had just bought the lit
tie runabout. Although it was the 18th
of the month, she couldn't help taking
out for a ride Mr. and Mrs. j. w.
Health of the Hotel Bayard, 142 West
Forty-ninth street, where Miss Bulger
lives. In Central park the little car,
with Engineer Bulger at the helm, act
ed SO beautifully that a mean park po-
liceman on bicycle chased 1t several
blocks and spoke to Miss Bulger with
out an introduction. The substance Of
his remarks was, You're plnched."
When Engineer Bulger arranged

turned to the car it was cold and un-
responsive until several obliging police
men gave the car a helping shove.
Then suddenly the engine snorted and
everything went beautifully and Miss
Bulger waved her hand in trium-
phant farewell.
Next morning, oh, so early, the fair
engineer went to her garage and liked
the car all by herself
II cleaned the whole machine, put in
new sparkling plugs, fixed the coils,
which had got mixed up with the car

see the car was so new that the thing

sides hadn't become well acquainted.
oh, yes, I'm full fledged mechanical

And Miss Bulger waved her Penn
sylvania license, jumped into the run
about and whisked off to Magistrate
Barlow's West Side court, where she
was held on $100 bond for trial in the
court of special sessions.

GEORGE A. SMITH IS
AFTER MAYORS SEAT
In an Open Letter He Declares What
He Would Do If Elected and
Denies Political Affili-
alton

Former Councilman George A. Smith
yesterday in an open letter to the
People of Los Angeles" announced
himself as candidate for mayor. His
announcement Is as follows:
after giving the matter very care
ful and mature consideration, / have
decided to be a candidate for mayor,
and do now announce myself as such
at the coming municipal election.
will try to explain my position briefly
and l trust that everyone will at least
give me credit for being truthful in my
statements. l am making my announce
ment to the people of Los Angeles abb
solutely on my own responsibility, re-
lying entirely on my own acts as a
citizen and business man during my
forty years residence in Los Angeles,
and my public service as councilman
from the Fifth ward.
II have always been Republican,
but when in public Office I believe in
giving all parties square deal-and
as the people have voted a provision in
the charter which is intended to elm
mate politics from municipal affairs, l
believe my views in that direction VIII
be indorsed by the people.
"I am not the candidate of any po-
litical organization or corporation, or
combination of interests. Neither have
/ the promise of the support of any
My appeal is to the people, and will
stand on their verdict.
"I fully appreciate the responsibilities
of the Office of mayor of this city, and
l believe that my experience in the
council and as chairman of the finance
committee, and my other business ex-
perience, has made me competent to
handle the executive end of the city's
affairs to the satisfaction of the people.
"I expect that political and othe.
interests will place other candidates In
the field and oppose my election; but
will, if elected, be their mayor and
fair representative as we'll as other
citizens who vote for or against me.
"If I am elected to the Office of mayor
il will be without strings or binding
conditions of any kind, and / will be
in a position to administer the citys
business without fear or favor, accord
ing to my best judgment-and that l
would expect to do.
"I-believe that combination of large
capital represented by a corporation Is
essential to the progress and general
prosperity of our city, and believe such
corporations are entitled to encourage
ment and protection, and as long as
they obey the law they will, as far as
lies in my power, get as fair treatment
as any citizen-but no better. believe
that every citizen has a right to live
and be protected as long as his busi-
ness is lawful. and he abides by and
obeys the laws, and II I am elected
mayor it will be my bushes and duty
to see that the laws are respected.

INSTEAD or LEAVE
ALFONSO TOOK VOWS
Spanish Princes Marriage to Princess
Beatrice, Which Cost Him His
Title, Was Result of
Romance

MADRID, July 19.-The marriage of
the infant Alfonso of Bourbon-Or-
leans and Princess Beatrice of Sake
Coburg, for which the prince has been
deprived of his title as an infant of
Spain, was the sequel of romance.
Prince Alfonso recently was brew
eted a lieutenant and was anxious to
proceed to Melilla, to which place
Spain is sending large detachments of
troops. While the mobilization of his
brigade was in progress the prince hur-
ried to Paris to visit his mother the
Princess Eulalie, and from there went
to Coburg to say goodby to Princess
Beatrice, to whom he was hetrothed.
Instead of farewells there was a
marriage ceremony, both civil and re-
ligious the latter according to the
Catholic and Protestant rites.
1t is understood the king opposed the
union because the princess declined to
change her religious faith.

other was Tom McCarey of Los Ange-

an offer of fortune, failed TO land
the attraction.
Gleason, who is part owner of the
San Francisco baseball club in the Pa

about what happened in New York,

Gleason explained one point which
caused considerable unfayorable COM

lots OF other things nearly as import
ant that would prevent such a battle
state? Surely Gary isn't dreaming
like that. Advertising is good for
Gary. just as il Is good for other places
and things. and II looks as If Gary
knew It, too. The first bitches In the
Jen-Johnson fight cropped up during
the week, and both came from the
Johnson camp. The first hitch was
produced by an alleged demand by
the negro that he and JEFF split the
purse. This could not be verified from
the Johnson end. and 1t is said OF
JEFF that he would not consent 10 such
q plan under any consideration II
the big black is really in earnest about
splitting the money. there may be
trouble before the men enter the ring,
but 1t Is not likely Johnson will go
along with his splitting talk.
Jeffries May Yield Point.
But there is another hitch which
may cause more serious trouble and
one which the negro Is likely TO win
out. The champion wants three judges
to decide tine winner of the fight II
both men are on their feet at the end
of the - rounds scheduled for them

judges. one of them to be negro
This seems fair enough. as Johnson
will consent to having the referee and
one OF the judges white men. Prob
ably Jeff Will agree TO this plan if
necessary.

Johnson that there is a chance of the
