Proprietary Medicine Frauds
Should Be Exposed.

There have been plenty OF them. no
doubt and they have been vigorously
.condemned-so vigorously that every sort
of medicine the formula of which Is prl-
vately owned is condemned and pro-
nounced "unethical" by the Medical Pro-
fession.
Ecknan's Alternative deserves attention,
not because it lis proprietary, but BE-
cause 1t really has cured many cases Of
tuberculosis. If 1t Is fraud 1t needs ex-
posing badly, because a number of cured
Consumptives will need to find some other
reason for being we'll.
Henry Clay said he would rather be
right than be President. Is 1t not better
for Eckman's Alternative to make cures
than to be ethical.

.HANDLEY SEEMS SLATED
FOR LELANDE's PLACE
Four CounCiImen Favor Good
Government Worker, and
Others Non-CommittaI

Lorin A. Handley to succeed Harry
j. Lelande as city clerk appears to be
the council lineup on the subject. Four
members of the council have admitted
they were favorable to Handley and
the others are nOn-cOmmittal but not
opposed to him. The six members can
elect a city clerk.
Until about a year ago HanGley was
a member of the faculty at Occidental
college, but since that time he has
acted as vice president and secretary
of the League of Justice. His salary
as secretary of the league is $2500 and
as city clerk he will receive but $240O.
He said yesterday that he was not a
candidate for the position but admit
ted that if it was offered to him he
would consider it. He declared that
if the League of Justice could raise
the funds necessary to do the work it
wants to do he would much rather
remain in his present position, hut
stated those funds were hard to raise.
Handley was a candidate for con-
gress on the Democratic ticket during
the last campaign, but was defeated
by w. d. stephens. He has been
prominently identified with Good Gov
ernment work since its inception in
this part of the state.
When it was rumored that Chief
Galloway was to resign Handley' s
name was mentioned as a possibility
for the chieftainship, but when it was
proposed to him he did not take to it
kindly.
City Clerk Lelande expects to resign
next Saturday and it will be up to the
council to appoint his successor i'm

HAVENS' DIVORCE
DISMISSAL GIVEN
Thrice in Year CIubman's Wife
Asks Dismissal of Action
That She Filed
WOMAN HER OWN ATTORNEY
Answer Filed by Husband Admits
He Had Slightly Slapped
SpouSe's Face

For the third time in year Mrs.
Myrtle Havens yesterday asked that
an action for divorce which she had
instituted against her husband, Ar
thur l.. Havens, clubman and business
operator of this city, be dismissed.
Mrs. Havens appeared yesterday be-
fore Judge Hutton, acting presiding
Judge, and after explaining that G.
f. ChapIine her lawyer is out of the
state, was permitted TO act as her own
attorney in the matter When that
procedure was completed she quickly
asked for the dismissal of the action
she had begun and her request was
granted, it being understood that there
is a likelihood of the couple being
reconciled.
Mrs. Havens had charged her hus-
band with cruelty, declaring that he
did not want her to live with him, had
called her vile names, had slapped
her face and last, but not least, had
refused to permit her to go with him
to the function known as ladies
night" at the Jonathan club, of which
the husband is a member.
Just as the case was about to be
brought to trial each time and after
Havens, who was reported to have said
he never would let his wife obtain
divorce. as he still loved her. had filed
an answer admitting that he had
slapDed his Wife's face Slightly, but
not enough to hurt" and generally de-
MED other charges. she asked for a dis
missal of her action. 1t was believed
that she had formed the divorce
habit although others thought that
she had been i'll advised by friends to
go upon the stage and that home life
occasionally therefore palled upon her.
Following the institution of one di-
vorce action she caused her husband
to be arrested on the charge of failure
to provide for her and as in the case
of the suits for a decree she succeeded
in having that matter dismissed before
it was brought to trial.

JUDGES WILL SIT
IN NEW QUARTERS
Rearrangement of CourtrOOmS Is
Planned for Several Depart
ments in County
NUMBERS ARE TO BE CHANGED
Judge Hutton Unanimous Choice
of Associates, May Take
Presiding Judicial Post

A rearrangement of the court rooms
is planned by judges of the Los AnSe-
les county superior court as soon as
the new hall Of records. adjoining the
court house on the south, is completed.
1t has been decided to have fourteen
court rooms at that time, although
there still will be only twelve superior
judges. The two criminal departments
will remain where they are-in the nan
of iustice-iust north of the county
Jail. There will be eight of the de-
partments retained in the court house
proper and four new rooms equipped
in the hall of records While that
makes the fourteen apartments, those
now devoted to departments one and
four will be used as witness ana jury
rooms, except when they are being oc-
cupied by outside or foreign Judges
two of whom, the regular judges be-
lieve, can be kept busy nearly al Ihe
time.
NUMBERING OF COURT ROOMS
Another change will be the number
ing of the court rooms in succession ac-
cording to their locations, instead OF
following the system in vogue now
At present departments two, four, five
seven and eight are located upon the
third floor of the court house, and de-
Dartments one, three, six, nine and ten
are on the fourth floor. There Will be
no baphazard numbering after the COM
pletion of the hall of records.
After the first Of the year, when
Judges IIerVey, Moss and Davis retire
being succeeded by Judges Wood, craig
and Finlayson, there will be several
changes in the courts and those presid-
ing over them. besides those necessl-
tated by the results of tho recent cleo
ton. Judge Mccormick will leave de-
,partment one and take up the criminal
work in department twelve, where
Judge Davis now presides. Judge Wood
will replace Judge Hervey, who re
tires. Judge Finlayson will preside IN
department four.
JUDGE HUTTON TO PRESIDE
Judge Hutton, now presiding in de-
partment four. and who is the unani-
nous choice of the judges as the sue
cessor to Judge Bordwell as presiding
Judge. who will not retire from the
bench, however, will take up the work
in department ten, where Judge Moss
now is located.
This change is caused by the fact
that it is the custom for the office OF
presiding judge to pass from one jurlst
TO another in numerical order, and as
Judge Bordwell sits in nine, his sue
cessor in that office must come from
department ten. The change in the
presiding judge, however, will not come
before May l, 1911.
