DENIES THE VALIDITY OF
REFERENDUM PETITIONS
Court Decides Against Former
Park Watchmen Who Seek
to Be ReinStated

Defeat again yesterday was the lot
of the FIVE civil service park watch
men who have been fighting for weeks
to retain a place on the city's pay roll.
Judge Conrey in the superior court
ruled against them in their suit to
compel City Clerk Lelande to certify
their referendum petitions as ade-
uuate. The case was dismissed.
The former watchmen are still full
of fight and are considering the use
of the initiative provision of the city
charter. When the council passed an
ordinance abolishing their positions
they promptly invoked the referen-
dunn. When their petitions were filed
they were referred to the city attor-
ney. He reported back that one man
had signed several of the petitions
and this invalidated them. They were
thrown out and as the number of
names remaining was less than the to-
tai required, the city clerk refused to
certify them to the council.
At this 1uncture the former watch
men applied to the superior court for
q writ of mandamus to compel the
city clerk TO certify the names thrown
out. While this proceeding was pend
ing the council passed another ordi-
nance repeating the ordinance against
which the referendum was directed.
This put the petitioners in the attitude
of fighting something that had ceased
to exist.
In dismissing the action yesterday
Judge Conrey ruled that the petitions
thrown out by the city attorney were
invalid, for the reason stated by him.

ELOPES WITH A MAN
HER FATHER OPPOSED
While One Suitor LanguiSheS in
Jail, Fair Maid Departs
with Another

Outwitting her irate parents, who
We're watching her closely, Estella
Quintana, a pretty 17-year-old girl,
climbed out of window at her home
in Santa Ana Sunday night and eloped
with Manuel Rodriguez, % years old,
of Tustin. The couple were traced to
Los Angeles, and Charles Quintana,
the father of the girl, is here making
a search for the missing girl.
The young woman was the belle of
the Spanish colony in Santa Ana and
had numerous suitors. Her parents
did not approve Of the young men who
called on her and as a result of an
alteration with Manuel de la Fuente
a short time ago the father of the gin
was stabbed by the unWelcome suitor.
Fuente now is in jail awaiting trial
for the assault.
Since the incarceration of Fuente
Rodriguez has been a frequent visitor
at the Quintana home The father did
not approve of his suit and he was
ordered to keep away.
Sunday night the girl retired at 10
O'Clock. Rodriguez, it appears, was
waiting outside her window and when
the parents were asleep he assisted her
to, escape.
0uintana discovered the disappear
ance of his daughter yesterday morn
ing and notified Sheriff Lacy of
orange county to- assist In the search
for the runaway girl. Sheriff Lacy in
turn notified the county clerks in sew
eral Southern California counties to
refuse to issue marriage license to
the couple.
Oufntana traced the pair to Los An
geles and arrived here yesterday after
noon. He will ask the local authori-
ties to assist him in finding his daugh-

SOCIALISTS WILL HAVE
TICKET OF UNION MEN
Leader Says New Labor Party Is
Unnecessary

A. K. Holston, prominent Socialist
and attorney of Los Angeles, stated
yesterday that the Socialist party OF
Los Angeles county will have a full
ticket on the ballot at the primary
election August 16 next, and that the
candidates for nomination at this cleo
tion would run on a Socialist platform.
ut is probable, however" said Mr..
Holston, that these candidates will be
selected from the ranks of the union
labor organizations. This appearing
to be almost a foregone conclusion
among the Socialists we fail to see
any reason for the existence of union
labor party or ticket, which 1t has
been reported some OF the union labor
leaders are attempting to form.
practically every Socialist who will
go on the ticket at the August pri-
maries will be a member of labor
union. We expect to work with the
support and cooperation of the union
labor men and they regard our ticket
as their own. For this reason the new
union labor ticket spoken of seems to
be superfiuous."

FORGER WHO VIOLATES
PAROLE SENT TO PRISON
Fails to Account for Absence and
Gets Two Years

Two years in San Quentin prison as
penalty for forging check for 81 was
the sentence given Charles Jackson
yesterday. The prisoner was tried for
forgery in November, 1908, and placed
on two years parole. After reporting
four times to officer Dodds he disap-
peared and until arrested on the street
a week ago had not been heard from
since.
Despite the courts warning of the
penalty for perjury, Jackson swore he
had not been outside of the county and
that he had been employed all of the
time. He was asked to prepare re-
port Of the jobs he had held, which he
did. About eight months, one-half the
total time, was accounted for, but this
was thrown out yesterday when one
employer after another testified that
instead of a month or two months
jackson had been employed by them
only a few days in each case.
A letter was also produced, pur-
ported to have been written by him,
wherein he told of recent travels TO
Kansas City, Pittsburg and Spokane
as we'll as other places.

DISTURBS COURTS PEACE;
CHARGED WITH INSANITY

Determination to make a lot of noise
got #. A Nlttenger into much trouble
In Judge Wilbur's court yesterday. When
he was fined S5 for contempt Of court
he became even more bOisterOus and
began quoting the Declaration of In-
dependence at length. Judge Wilbur va
Gated his order hning Nittenger and or
dered that he be arrested on an insanity
charge. He will be given hearing to-
day.
Nittenger told the court his homo was
In Ocean Park. His presence in court
was due TO his desire to learn some
thing regarding a civil suit involving
$500, in which he is defendant. He be-
gan talking loudly to the clerk and all
n efforts to silence him were fruitless.

VIGOROUS FIGHT STARTED
FOR WILMINGTON LOTS
Guardian of ManueIIa Adarga
Wants Property Returned

A vigorous fight for the possession of
three lots in Wilmington, said to be
worth $4,000, was begun before Judge
James yesterday. The question rests
entirely on the sanity of Mrs. Manuella
Adarga, who decided the property to her
daughter, M. A. Campillo, n 1903.
The parties to the suit are Manuella
Adargo, by her guardian. Thomas R.
Whitley, against the daughter, M. A.
Campillo and T. e. Campillo. In
addition to the attempt to show insan-
ity an effort is being made to show
that the second defendant conspired to
get the property. AS a step in that
direction the testimony of the daughter
that she had never been properly mar
ried to T. E. Campillo was secured.
The case was continued till June 80.

Pats wife was very i'll and the
doctor, who was about to leave the
house, was giving Pat implicit direc-
tons as TO the way of giving some
medicine that he was leaving.
Now" he said as final injunc-
ton, you must be very careful in
giving the medicine, because it is
very dangerous, and an over guam
tity is liable to kill her. You must
not give her a particle more than
what will go on a dime. Do you
see?" After being satisfied that Pat
understood, he left the house.
In few hours he returned to find
the woman dead, Much astonished
he asked Pat what sudden change
had taken place, Imagine his feel
ings when the Irishman said calm

This forecast given by Delegate
EuhiO of the appointments that will
be made by the President indicates
to the people of the Territory of Ha-
wall that they still have something
tC say regarding who shall be placed
in Office. It gives them some assur-
anCe that dark lantern methods are
not to forever prevail in the selec-
tlOn OF men for government service;
that we are not completely reduced
to a vassalage that shall accept with
out whimper anything and every
thing that is Matched up in the Sc
Cret counsels of the very excellent
gentlemen who inhabit the building
up yonder.
We say, excellent gentlemen ad-
yisedly. AS men, they have always
seemed to be all tight. But
some perversion inexpressibly vague
and nevertheless tremendously real
appears to get into the head of every
citizen who becomes an official and
occupies seat among the mighty
in our Territorial Capitol building.
As time goes on, he puts off the at
mosphere of the average citizen,
draws into himself, becomes secre.
tive and dictatorial, and therefore
out of touch with public sentiment.
