PLAN ANNUAL CEREMONY
TO COMMEMORATE LINCOLN
Illinois Society Members Meet, and
MidWinter Picnics VIII Result
from Resolutions

Hereafter, or so long as the Illinois
association of Southern California eX-
lists, Lincoln's birthday anniversary
will be fittingly observed by the Illi-
noisans in Los Angeles. That they
were determined to celebrate the birth
anniversary of the ''emancipator" by
giving a midwinter picnic became
known at a meeting of the members
of the board of control of the society
Monday night.
The meeting, held In room 300 in the
Union Trust building. was called for
the purpose of effecting a permanent
organization of the Illinois club, which
will work to bring about a closer bond
between Illinoisans in Los Angeles and
elsewhere in California; also to scatter
to the winds any pessimism and nos
talgia which might linger with the
newcomers. Deputy District Attorney
Frank w. Blair, formerly of Chicago,
was elected president of the club. DR..
d. d. Nice was chosen vice president
and John e. Murray was elected sec
retary- treasurer.
At the next meeting, March s, to be
convened in the same room, the COM
mittee on headquarters will announce
it's selection of suitable room or suite
of rooms where both organizations will
have a, home.

BELIEVE ROBBINS
HAD MOCK WEDDING
Assayer Under Arrest in Mexico on
Charge of Bigamy, May Be In
nocent of Accusation
Against Him

Although a marriage license was
issued to George c. Robbins, assayer,
to marry Genevieve A. Lindsay, Jan
uary 6, no record showing that a we'd
ding ceremony was performed can be
discovered. The alleged bigamist, no.
tice of whose arrest in Mexico City
was received by Sheriff Hammel Thurs
day, is still held by the Mexican au-
thorities until the necessary proceed
ings for his extradition are completed.
The register at the marriage license
bureau shows that Robbins obtained
the permit to wed Miss Lindsay Thurs
day, January 6. The law requires that
the license shall be returned to the
recorders office by the marrying JUS
tice or minister within three days
after the ceremony. More than six
weeks have elapsed since the license
was issued and no information that a
wedding took place has been received
ut is barely possible that the license
has been forgotten by the person who
performed the ceremony" said a clerk
in the recorders office yesterday.
"This is the first instance, however,
that / can remembey where a permit
was not returned within six weeks"
The belief now is that If wedding
occurred it was a mock ceremony, in
which event Robbins can not be held
on a charge of bigamy

PASSION PLAY GIVEN
DRESS REHEARSAL
Principals Try Costumes and Seem
cry, and Lighting Effects Are
Experimental with at
the Auditorium

For the first time, the costumes for
the Passion Play, which will be given
at the Auditorium theater the week of
March IA, were worn at the rehearsal
of the principals on the Auditorium
stage Monday night. While the chorus
of the play was being drilled at St.
Joseph's hall by Edward Hayes, those
with speaking parts were receiving in
structions in regard to the wearing of
beautiful dresses and robes by William
Stoermer at the Auditorium. The
settings for several of the scenes were
placed in position and experiments
with the light effects were made.
All who witnessed the rehearsal
argue that the scenic splendor of the
Passion Play will surpass by far any
thing that nas been seen in Los An
geles.
A very poor impression of what the
final performance will be was to be
gained last night, however. because of
the confusion and excitement. Many
of the costumes will have to be re-
made in order to insure perfect fits.
BY the opening night of the play
everything must be prepared in such
a. way that there shall be no room for
criticism in any detail
The wardrobe mistress of the Pas
sion Play will be busy woman for
the next three weeks, Claiming her
attention, the 900 participants in the
production should be able to leave her
with little leisure time. The costumes
used in the San Francisco presentation
must be altered. 1t is the intention of
those in charge of the play to be as
conscientious in this feature of the
work as in all others.

HAS WHISTLE PLAN
FOR TRAFFIC SQUAD
Sergeant Buffers Trial at Fifth Street
and Broadway Finds Favor
with Commissioner
Davidson

One whistle, north and south traffic
stops-two whistles, east and west
traffic stops. This is one feature of
the plan in the mind of Police Com
missioner A. N. Davidson to control
traffic conditions in the congested por-
tions of the business district. Mr..
Davidson suggested his plan to the
police commission, and the commits
sion has instructed Chief Galloway to
take the matter up with Sergeant But
Ter of the traffic squad and work out
better facilities for handling the
traffic.
Sergeant Butler tried out his plan
at Fifth street and Broadway several
weeks ago.
while in the east last summer I
found 1 could get along better in my
automobile on Broadway, New York,
than can on Broadway, Los Angeles, y
said Mr.. Davidson, land noticed that
the traffic policemen all carried whis-
ties. One whistle meant that traffic
going north and south had to stop and
let the east and west traffic have a
chance and two whistles stopped traffic
going the other way. OF course, there
they have more than one policeman to
a crossing, while we have only one,
and some important crossings have
none, but the whistle seemed to help
solve the difficulty"
The council has recently passed a
new traffic ordinance that will be in
effect in about two weeks, and the
provisions of this ordinance will help
unravel the congestion problem. This
ordinance was framed by the legisla-
ton committee In conjunction with
Sergeant Butler, and 1t contains many
of the traffic sergeant's ideas.

HARRIS, IN JAIL,
TALKS AT LAST
ADMITS HE TOOK MONEY FROM
MACFARLAND co.'s SAFE
THOUGHT He HAD RIGHT TO DO
so AS THE SECRETARY
Trial on Charge of Grand Larceny Set
for March 31-Defense to
Fight Case to
Finish

For the first time since his arrest,
two months ago, Herbert Leslie Har-
ris, held in the county Jail to await
trial on a charge of grand larceny,
made a positive declaration yesterday
concerning the alleged theft of $5S7.75
from the safe of the MacFarland Shirt
company December 10.
Harris, talking. through his leading
counsel, w. Ona Morton, acknowledged
that he had taken the money, asserted
its ownership for himself or other per-
sons associated with him and evaded
the question when asked to explain
why he had denied that he had been in
the MacFarland store. He also failed
to give a reason for hiding the money
in out of the way places in the john
son building.
Harris trial is set for March 81 in
Judge Willis criminal department. At
torney Morton said yesterday that the
case will be strenuously fought.
There will be no plea of guilty and
request for probation in this case" he
said. 1--WE will be able to show that the
MacFarland Shirt company was a cor
poration and that Harris was secretary
and acting manager of that corpora
tlOn. we VIII snow tnaL ne was Stlll
entitled to that Office when the money
was taken.'
"Then you admit that Harris took
the money!" was asked.
"Yes, that is conceded, but we be-
lieve he was entitled to it," replied Mr..
Morton.
Let me tell you the story from the
beginning, and as much of our defense
as we can reveal at the present time" !"
continued the attorney. I'm May, 1909,
a man named Austermill bought out
the corporation from MacFarland for
about 100000, giving some cash and
notes for the balance. In July Harris
became the owner of a few shares of
stock and was made secretary and
general manager, and actually took
possession of the store. He was in
control until September.
"In the meantime MacFarland had
gone east on account of poor health.
In September Harris and Austermill
went away, and shortly after their de-
parture MacFarland returned and took
illegal possession of the store, which
Harris and Austermill had turned over
to the employees. Agents of Austermill
and Harris protested to MacFarland
against his action in claiming the
property, and 1t is the contention of
Harris that MacFarland is still In
wrongful possession of the store"

DOCTOR SAYS RABIES
CAUSED BOYS DEATH
DOG BITE PROVES FATAL TO
JOSEPH SCOTT, JR.
After Conducting Thorough Investi-
cation Autopsy Surgeon Warns
Parents to Be Alert for
Symptoms of Disease

Rabies, said to be the second case
known in medical history in California,
resulting from the scratch mark made
by a dogs teeth, caused the death Of
Joseph Scott, jr., son of Joseph Scott,
president Of the city board of educa-
tion of Los Angeles, and president
elect of the chamber of commerce.
That the 10-year-old son of the presi-
dent of the board of education was be-
lieved to have been afflicted with rabies
was announced yesterday exclusively
in The Herald.
Proof of the statement was made
public last evening by DR.. Stanley
Black, who was the autopsy surgeon.
The poStmortem examination conducted
in the interest of science in the hope
that the surgeons investigation might
tend to prevent death in similar cases
was made at the undertaking place of
Cunningham & OConnor. DR.. Black
was aware of the fact that Drs. H. G..
Brainerd and John r. Colburn were
admittedly baffled while they battled
for the boys life, and that the boy in
his dying hours displayed an aversion
to water.
Also he knew that tramp dog
had attacked the boy last December
and it's teeth had left scratches across
the calf of one of his legs. IiIvestiga-
IlOn OF Ln9 history OI lfl0 case SIOWeu
that the dog was not killed at the time,
as was presumed, but fled from the
Scott home at 984 Elden avenue, after
biting the boy. Whether the dog at
tackled and bit or scratched other chill
dren or adults is not known. 1t is pre-
sumed that the dog died of hydropho-
bia afterward. DR.. Black made public
the result Of his search for the rabies
germ so that parents and physicians
and surgeons could prepare to act ac-
cordingly.
The funeral of the boy will be held
this morning at 915 o'clock at the
Scott home. Rev. John ]. Clifford will
be in charge of the services at the
residence. The body will be taken from
the house at 10 o'clock to st. Vibiana
cathedral, where solemn requiem mass
will be celebrated by Rt. Rev. Mgr
Harnett. Rev. Frank J. Conaty will
conduct the services at the interment
at Calvary.
The seven children in the family of
Joseph Scott had each a godfather. Six
of these-W. e. Hampton, Michael
Rush, p. J, Mcdonald, James G. Kays,
I. b. Dockweiler and John P. Burke
will be pallbearers at the boys funeral
The seventh godfather was the late
John r. Francis.
