TO RESTRICT USE
OF NATIONAL FLAG
PATRIOTIC ASSOCIATION WILL
PREVENT DISSERTATION
Society Will See That Recently En-
acted Legislation to Prevent Ad-
vertising Emblem Is
Observed

The near approach of In sependence
day and the active preparations under
way to have Los Angeles in gala attire
for the great Elks' festival has stirred
the members of the Los Angeles Patri-
otto association to action to see that the
recently enacted law to prevent the
dissertation, mutilation or improper use
of the national flag is not violated.
1t is we'll understood by the members
of the patriotic association that no well
meaning citizen will purposely trans
gress the law, If it is thoroughly I'M
derstood. -,
In the desire of merchants and citi-
zens alike to do honor to Los Angeles
and also to the thousands of visiting
Elks who will arrive in July, the ma
tional flag, it is said, has been dis
played in a manner contrary to the
new law. Special attention has been
called to the fact that the American
flag has been conspicuously displayed
in windows, and used in other ways
prohibited by the law.
For the information of those who
have not perused the law, and to avoid
unnecessary prosecution, the act re-
Gently passed by the legislature, and
which became operative after being
signed by Governor Gillett, is printed.
1t reads:

BAD CHECK GETS
BROKER IN JAIL
CASE REVEALS PECULIAR COIN
CIDENCE IN TWO MEN
Prisoner Has No Funds In Bank nut
Namesake, Also Crippled and
SpecuIator, Did Have in the
Same Institution

A peculiar coincidence and unusuai
conditions were revealed in the ar
rest of r. S. Clark, said to be a bucket
shop Spectator, charged with passing
q valueless check for 1865 on MRS
Minnie M. Steffens of 152 New YORK
street. who was arraigned in Ponce
Justice Frederickson's court yesterday
and locked up in jail, in default OF
$4,000 bonds.
According to the complainants story
70 Deputy District Attorney Paul Nc
Cormick, Clark, who lived at the Stet-
fens home, approached Mrs. Stefrens
Wednesday with statement that ne
had inside information on big deal
and that If he had enough money ne
would be anabled to carry out Dig
thing in the stock market. He is al
legged to have mentioned the fact that
he had a credit of $500 at Logan &
Rryan's brokerage Office here and
asked her to advance him what money
She had. Mrs. Steffens gave him two
checks, one for $3.50 and the other for
500. and in return Clark gave her
check for 1865 on the First National
bank as security.
Clark left the house Thursday morn
ing and later in the day Mrs. Steffens
took the check to the Highland Park
bank and through them is said to have
learned the paper was valueless and
that Clark had no money on deposit
Los Angeles herald., 1909-06-09

in the bank on which the check was
drawn.
Clark failed to return and she APP
peared at the central police station ana
asked Deputy District Attorney NC
Cormick for a complaint Mccormick
talked the matter over with the
woman and advised her to think the
matter over and return the following
day. This Mrs. Steffens did and de-
clared her determination to prosecute
her friend. A complaint was filed and
Mrs. Steffens was told it would not
be withdrawn.
Returns and Settles Account
Saturday. so it seems, Clark returned
and settled with Mrs. Steffens. Mon
day she called on Mccormick ana with
tears in her eyes begged him 10 WITH
draw the complaint and dismiss the
charge. This Mccormick refused 10
do. and as the result of - questions
asked the woman 1t was learned Clark
was in the city and at her home. Yes
terday Detectives Hosick and Zeigler
visited the place and arrested Clark,
who is a cripple, and took him to the
central police station. .
In the meantime Mrs. Steffens, 1t Is
alleged, made Investigations through
her attorney and was about to attach
the bank VI Aldih -
learned that the Clark who had de-
post in the First National bank was
S. e. Clark, also cripple and a bro
ker, but was in no way connected with
the Clark who passed the alleged value
less check.
When Clark was arraigned in police
court yesterday afternoon Mrs Ste1-
fens was present with her attorney,
who advised with the accused. When
Clark's bonds were fixed at $4,000 Mrs.
Steffens is said TO have made an at
tempt to furnish the security, but be-
cause of the fact she is the prosecut-
ing witness was unable to 90 SO.
When asked about the case Mrs. Stef7
fens was extremely reticent, but stated
when Clark returned to her the money
which he had obtained and she saw
that he was doing the right thing
wanted to drop the prosecution.
