.EBELL CLUB OBJECTS
To ARROYO EARTH FILL
Largest WOman'S Organization
Joins Big Movement for
Pasadena Av. Bridge

Since the park commission voiced
the first protest against the construc-
ton of an earth fill across the arroyo
seco at Pasadena avenue, not day
has passed that has not produced a
protest from some other source. Yes
terday the protest was in the form OF
a resolution from the Ebell club, the
largest woman's organization in the
city. The objection was like all the
others, a protest against spelling the
beauty of the arroyo with Va fill that
will cost as much as a concrete bridge.
r. w. Pridham, of the board of su-
pervisors, was before the streets and
boulevards committee of the city coun-
ell yesterday. This committee is also
the bridge committee that is consider
ing the matter of the earth fill.
Mr.. Pridham declared he had asked
the supervisors for all the money he
felt justified in asking for the dirt fill
but If it was the intention to build a
concrete bridge and property owners
would appear before the board of su-
pervisors and ask a larger appropria-
tion to provide a concrete bridge, he
would make no objections.
Bids for the fill are to be opened by
the supervisors October "a and the
bridge committee of the council has
decided to await the action of the su-
pervisors on the bids. The city is
pledged to pay one-fourth the cost of
the fill but the protests against it are
becoming so numerous and strong that
a bridge may be provided in place of
the proposed fill.

Be Sure You Get Pure
Drinking Water
Don't Be Satisfied with the Ordinary Sup
pIy--You Can't Afford to Be

Everybody recognizes today that the
Pure Food idea is not fad. Much
good work has been done, and the wide
publicity given the matter has been of
inestimable value in preserving the
public health.
Many thousands of people are care
full also, to secure Pure Drinking Wa
ter. And this is not fad, either-but
as important to every person as the
matter of pure food.
Nowhere is this fact more widely
recognized than in Los Angeles. Thou
sands of people here drink Puritas
Distilled Water.
They know that natural waters in
Southern California contain many inn
purities-among them large quantities
of mineral matter. And they are not
willing to take into the system this
foreign matter, which cannot be assim-
Hated. They know it is cause of
rheumatic and kidney troubles.
In Puritas they find an absolutely
pure, "soft" water Many OF them
have been to our plant and seen Puri-
tas distilled. Hundreds of physicians
have looked into our Raethods-and to-
day are regular users Of Puritas.
We have every facility and years of
experience in producing a pure water.
Puritas is distilled twice, for double
distillation is essential to water purity.
After dstllation the water is aerated
with pure ozone, secured by passing a cur
rent Of electricity through filtered air.
Then the water is bottled in clean, glass
demjohns. Even the corks are wrapped in
foil, in order that the air. filtering through
porous cork, may not contamtnate the
pure water within.
Puritas is very inexpensive. Five gal-
Ions cost but 40 cents, delivered within the
old city boundary lines. At outside points
the cost is a trifle more, owing to the long
haul.
Regular Puritas customers purchase Cou-
pom Books, thus securing the pure water at
discount When you telephone ask us
about these. Home 10053, Sunset Main Sl9l.
Purtas can be had through dealers in
most towns in Southern California. IL you
are unable to find 1t, write us and We Will
see that you are supplied.

PASADENA WANTS JUICE


Mayor Farley of Pasadena declared
that his city would want some of the
electrical Juice" just as much as it
wanted some of the Owens river wa
ter. as soon as Los Angeles was in
a position to furnish it. He pointed
out some of the mistakes Pasadena
had made in its municipality owned
electric plant and cautioned the Los
Angeles authorities against similar err
rors. He said that if the city was
going in to the business of municipal
ownership Of electric power it should
supply all the light and power used
in the city and not enter into competi-
tion with the power companies.
w. B. Mathews, attorney for the
auueduct and power departments, de-
clared that any plan to dispose of the
power through the power companies
must be carefully thought out in way
that would meet the ideas Of the peo-
pie.
1.-THE power companies must say on
what basis they expect to take over
this power and how the consumer is
to be treated" said Mr.. Mathews. Tine
people must know definitely what the
power companies are to pay the city
and what they will charge the consum-
er. This question will be decided by
the people and if they are to be guided
in their deliberations they must be CIV
en- a comprehensive idea of what to ex-
pect. The sooner the representatives
of the power companies meet with rep
resentatives Of the city to determine
working basis the better it will be for
all concerned"

Miss Fanny Wills, just home from

WHY ROSS DALEY
 HAD TO BE SENT FOR
To Testify In the Case Against Walter
 Grainer.

Deputy Sheriff Adams returned on Saturday night from Flagstaff with Ross Daley who is wanted as a witness in the case of the territory against ConductorStowell at Mesa last summer. Daley was one of the men who ar rested Grainer. That he did not appear in court on his motion wos not his fault for he was in the custody of Sher- if Francis of Coconino county who had just arrested him on a, charge of horse stealing
 When Deputy Sheriff Adams arrived at Flagstaff Daley had been in jail about six hours. As soon as he has testified, under court order, he will be returned to Flagstaff by the sheriff s office here.
 Daley says, regarding the horse stealing charge, that he is the victim Of circumstances which he had no part in making He said that last summer he was authorized to gather lot Of horses and mules on the range annd when he got through, this horse was among them. He kept it with the others in pasture and one day a Mexican came along and identified it as his. Daley says he bought it though he neglected to take bill of sale or to inquire the name of the Mexican.
 The Cochino authorities do not accept this explanation unreservedly. They have put it up to Daley to find this Mexican. They say they have been hunting for just such a Mexican; one without a name who has been stealing property for the last eight or nine years, and selling it to people who are unable to give even a fair description of him.

NEW MANAGEMENT FOR SIXTH AVENUE HOTEL
It Will Be Conducted In the Interest of Both Regular and Transient
 Patrons.

The Sixth Avenue hotel on the cor ner of Sixth avenue and Adams street has changed hands, Mrs, May Easter the property, planning to conduct it as a fully equipped hotel catering to both regular and transient trade.
 The building is of three stories and has thirty apartments for rent, being provided also with a roomy but cosy dining room amply large for the pur- poses of the regular patrons and a considerable number of transient guests.
 The Sixth avenue is one of the older hotels of the city and though not among the larger ones it has all ways been 9. first class establishment At times it has been merely a Iodging house, the dining room not being in use though recently it has been and it is the purpose of the management to continue it, maintaining its good reputation and where bettered ap- pointments can be made it will be done.

The same is true of lodging. The greater number of the rooms are occupied by those whc are somewhat permanently located by weekly or monthly rates. though there are quite a number of rooms not so disposed of and whenever they are available transient guests will be wei comed ~

Nearly everybody knows that this is the line that has made Cascarets famous.

 When an article gains fame it is usually initiated more or less, and Cascarets is no exception to the rule. For a time these fakes and imitators seem to thrive by taking advantage of the unsuspecting public, and the worst of it is, unless the purchaser discovers the cheat, he is likely to credit the real article. with the un- satisfactory results obtained from use of the substitute.
