MISS SCHAUPP Is CHARGED
BY FATHER WITH INSANITY
Young Medical Student Declares
Action Without Foundation

On complaint of her father, Vera B.
Schaupp, daughter of Adam Schaupp,
a wealthy resident of Pasadena, was
yesterday arrested on an insanity
charge and arraigned before Judge
Bordwell. Her hearing was set for
July at p. m. until which time
she will remain in the custody of her
father and in care of the Bishop san
itarium in Pasadena.
1t is not known whether Owen Par
rett, the young Adventist medical stu
dent who secured a writ of habeas
corpus for her release, will appear to
contest the matter. Parrett, at the
time of obtaining the writ, anticipated
that the question of the young wom-
ans sanity would be raised to pre-
vent her release, but he stated there
was no foundation for such proceed
ings.
The parents, as we'll as DR.. Bishop,
state the girl is not now able to care
for herself. At the arraignment yes
terday she appeared rational, though
angry at the charge brought against
her.

WIRELESS CO. PERMIT
PUZZLES AUTHORITIES
Building Department Seeks Rul-
ing Whether or Not Tower
Conflicts with Ordinance

Whether a wireless tower is a part
of building is now being considered
by City Attorney Leslie r. Hewitt. The
American Wireless corporation several
months ago asked the building depart
ment for permission to erect tower
$50 feet in height on top of the Herman
w. Hellman building, to hold the neces-
sary antennae for the sending and re-
ception of wireless telephone messages.
The department did not feel warranted
in granting the permit at that time, in
view of the fact that the ordinances
specify that no building shall be over
1S0 feet in height
The department wants ruling on
whether or not a wireless tower is a
mart OF a structure. The Hellman
building is 11S feet in height, and with
the addition of the proposed tower the
height to the top of the wireless mast
would be 36S feet.

HUNTINGTON PARK HALTS
NEW WATER ORDINANCE

The South Los Angeles Water COM
pany secured an injunction yesterday
against the enforcement Of the new
water ordinance of the city of Hunt
ington Park. The measure, which was
passed March 21 of this year, to go
into effect July 1, provided that 10
cents a thousand gallons, with min
imum of 81 a month, should be the rate.
This, the company contends, is too low,
or, in other words, confiscatory.
The injunction, which is but tenn
porary, enjoins the enforcement of any
of the provisions of the ordinance, or
the bringing Of suit against the COM
pany to enforce the forfeiture of any
of the companys franchises for its
refusal to accept the rate.

BIG ARMY POST NEAR CITY
ASSURED, SAYS M'LACHLAN
Congressman States Outlook Ex-
CeIIent for Federal Steamships

Congressman James McLachlan re-
turned from Washington yesterday,
and stated that the outlook is excellent
for the passage Of the bill introduced
by him in congress for the establish
ment of a federal steamship line on
this coast and for the placing of an
army post near Los Angeles In
speaking on the latter matter Con-
gressman McLachlan said;
"I introduced this resolution after a
conversati ton with Gen. Chaffee, who
showed how difficult it would be for us
to expel an enemy, although it would
be easy for one to get footing in our
territory.
'While I am confident of the ulti-
mate success Of the bill for a federal
steamship line on the coast, friends of
the measure in the committee after a
canvass of the situation assured me
that it would be unwise to press for
action on the bill at the session just
ended.
"At present there is no likelihood of
securing a subtreasury building for
Los Angeles. We must first secure the
passage of a bill establishing a sub
treasury here"

TO ASK NEW TRIAL FOR
MRS. GERTRUDE briggs

Because Judge Davis refused to give
f1fty-three of the instructions to the
jury asked for by the defense, a new
trial, and, if that is refused, an ap-
peal in the case of Gertrude briggs,
found guilty of forgery Thursday night,
will be asked when the prisoner comes
up for sentence this morning. Seven
ty-six instructions were asked, and
the judge gave but twenty-three of
them. Error in this and in the pro-
ceedings during the trial will be al
legged. O.
The question of whether probation
will be asked in event the appeal fails
rests chiefly with the defendant her
self. Her attorney, Paul Schenk,
stated emphatically yesterday that he
would never advise in favor of such
a request.

Normal Enrolment 1875.

The annual Beaver County normal
which is in session in Beaver this
month is one of the biggest ever held
in the county. The enrolment up to
date has reached 1856 and there will
probably be others who will come in
the last two weeks.
The corps of instructors which is
composed of Prof II b. Scott, Prof.
Scroggs, Miss Lena Wright and Miss
Agnes Young, is one of the best that il
is possible to obtain and they are go-
ing ahead with the work in manner
that shows that they know exactly
what is expected of them. The teach
ers are making the best of the op.
portunity too and much good work is
being done. Supt. Meeks has spared
no effort to make this session of the
Beaver county normal excel those OF
other years and nothing has been
omitted that would be of benefit to
the teachers of Beaver County. His
effort TO raise the standard of Beaver
County schools should be and is appre-
ciated.

A. F. Rock In.

For sometime past detective rep.
resenting NJ. Herbert franklin Of
Beaver County Okla has been in the
city watching the performances of Mr.
Franklin's wife, Mrs. Kate Franklin,
who came here several ths ago and
set up in the dress-making business.
Last Friday night at the instance of
this man, deputies of the city and
county police force called at Mrs.
Franklin's rooms and but for her nerve
in the usc of a OBTAINING weapon,
would have found man In her apart
ments. As it was he escaped through
a window, though he broke through
the screen and left fairly good hat
behind.
In this connection Mrs. Franklin
and A. F. Rock were arrested on the
usual charge in such clses and cited
to appear in police court Saturday
morning. Later their case was set for
wednesday morning, at which time
Judge Schaber fined them each $500
and costs. The explanation of all this
is found in the lact that Mrs Franklin
has divorce suit pendiag here and
her,husband has one on the docket in
Beaver county. The divorce part of it
is easy enough. The contest is on the
custody of the eight year old daughter
who has been living with MIS-. Frank
lin. The husband considered that il
was up to him to prove the wife an inn
proper custodian. Duly appraised Mr..
Franklin came on for the big doings
and when he reached here begin. ha-
beas corpus proceedings in Judge Ben
netts court to obtain his daugh ter, but
the Judge decided he had no jurisdic-
tion. In the meantime the police court
cases were appealed.
Rock and Mrs. Franklin were arrest
ed on state warrant charging ad dultry
Mrs. Franklin gave bond but Rock
went to jail
1t is said there will be further
charge against Rock.
The above was taken from a Paw
huska paper Most of the people OF
Beaver county know A. +. Rock as he
was one of the pioneers of this county
and was engaged in the real-estate and
farm loan business at Beaver, and
Liberal Kansas, up until, few months
ago. Mrs. Franklin and her husband
homesteaded place out near Gray
LaKemp Mirror,
There are few people in Beaver
who know Rock to the extent of sew
eral SIS and there il not much surprise
to hear of him in this light. However
he has a fine family and they are al
highly respected and long since Rock''
crookedness has cast no reflection OF
them.

Mrs. F. j. Birdsall Dead.


Deaths sting has again been felt by
the pioneers OF Beaver County. An
other of our deeply loved and respect
ed friends OF the "old days" has been
called Home. Mrs. r. J. Birdsall, OF
Madison, is that one for whom we
mourn. Mrs. Birdsall passed to her
reward early Tuesday morning after
lingering illness Of several weeks, at
her home near Madison. A husband ,
one daughter, Mrs. +. p. Madison, Of
Beaver, and one son, Charles Birdsall,
Of Madison, besides many other rela-
tives and a legion of friends, are left
to mourn the loss. OF devoted wife,
true mother and kind friend.
Funeral services were conducted at
the home Wednesday, June Sth, at l
FLOCK, p. NJ, and interrment was made
in the Madison cemetery. Rev w.
B. Leonard, pastor Of the Presbyterian
church at beaver, conducted the SER
vices.
The death OF Mrs. Birdsall will be
mourned by all who knew her She
was a woman whose gentleness, kind
ness and sympathy for all won place
in the hearts of all who were fortunate
enough to know her. With her family
she has resided on the ranch on the
Kiowa for many years and everybody
always knew that hearty welcome
awaited them at Birdsall's. In the
pioneer days Mrs. Birdsall's hearth was
home to many, many OF the cowboys,
all of whom loved her as mother.
Their home was the scene of many
happy gatherings. In later years when
conditions of the country changed and
the ranch was converted into farm,
it was still the old meeting place of all
the old timers and many of the new
friends. Nobody ever thought of CO.
ing in many miles of that home with
out stopping over night or for meal
and if anyone ever had chance to pay
one cent for anything they received /,
it was in some way in which these good
people never knew of it.
Truly. good woman has gone to
| her reward-one who lived to brighten
and cheer the lives of others. She will
be sadly missed but the memory OF
her good deeds will live on forever.
To the family, we extend our sincere
| sympathy. Your darkest hour of sor-
row is now upon you. With Mother
gone there is not much left of all that
is good perfect and true. A faithful
wife and a devoted mother is Gods
richest blessing to the home. Let us
hope that her children and her child
rens children may live to,emulate the
worthy example set before them and
that we all may learn lesson in love
and devotion by being acquainted with
Mrs. Birdsall, Our sympathy especi'
ally goes out to Mr.. Birdsall, who is
deprived of the companion of his de-
clining days. His depths of sorrow
cannot be fathomed. And to little
Georgia Madison. the pet of her grand
mother and with whom she made hel
home. May Gods choicest blessings
rest upon them and may they be able
to look beyond and find comfort and
consolation in the hope of meeting
where there will be no more partings
