Mrs. Wallace Moore.

Mrs. Wallace Moore's silk stocking
shower for Miss Morgan on last Friday
afternoon was one of the most beauti-
fully planned affairs given in her honor.
The color scheme was pink in the
dining room. A huge basket made of
pink roses was suspended from the
chandelier with ribbons running to the
four corners Of the room and one for
Miss Morgan to pull, which she did to
find herself literally covered with beau-
tiful silk hose. The tally cards were
hand-painted brides and the refresh
ments were ices and cake in rose de-
signs. The prizes were awarded as fol-
lows: Miss Mary Stuttgart, first; Miss
Weltmer, consolation. Miss Morgan
was presented with a beautiful hand
embroidered pillow.

were both artistic and appropriate. The
tally cards were especially attractive, be-
ing hand-painted cupids with a tiny slip

rice to each. The bridal idea was fur
ther carried out in the refreshments,

The Schubert Symphony Club, one Of
the oldest and best known organizations
in the United States, will appear again
IN Union City after an absence of six
teen years, at Reynolds Opera House
next Tuesday night, Oct. IS, in bene-
fit entertainment for the Elks. The
price of admission is usually one dollar,
but the Elks have secured this attrac-
ton and are offering the best seats for
IS cents.
The Schuberts consist Of the Schubert
Lady Quartette, known everywhere for
the excellence Of their music, Thomas
Valentine Purcell, instrumentalist, and
Miss Anna Pearl Weatherington, mono
logist. Numbers embglce selections
also by the Symphony Club, and the
entire arrangement is one of the best Of
its class.
Union City should welcome the Schu-
berts with crowded house solely for the
character of their work, but more so be-
cause the Elks are seeking to increase
the fund for new home in Union City.
The reserved seat sale will be at S. d.

Los Angeles herald., 1910-10-22

Editor Herald: 1t is surprising to me
that inasmuch as the future OF the city
of Los Angeles is of such great inter-
est and Importance, more of the cltl-
zens have not become interested, or II
Interested, have not expressed opinions
on the electrical power question, This
problem is not alone for the city otti-
cials and the electric companies OIL
cials; 1t is a question for all the people.
The corporations have engaged compe--
tent counsel to argue their side,. and
the citizens OF Los Angeles should act
in that capacity on the other side ana
argue for the city, and by arguing pre-
vent this power from being disposed OF
to any corporation.
1T is certain that if the city retains
this power and retails it to the inhabl-
tants and commercial enterprises OF Los
Angeles, the general cost of living,
building and manufacture Will be
greatly reduced The uses of electrici-
ty are innumerable, but for the point
let us consider light, heat and motive
power.
Every street, alley and dark spot in
this city should be made at night as
light as day; this alone is regarded as
safeguard against crime and. could
be very easily done If the city retains
the power And the extra expense
would be partially If not wholly made
up by the reduction of expense in the
police department.
AS to heat, there is no heat that can
be compared with electrical heat for
cleanliness and health. Such use of TINS
power would diminish the cost Of build
ing homes and all other buildings
wherein heat is used, by doing away
with the necessity of building cellars
and installing large and expensive
heating apparatus, furnaces, etc, there

THE MOTHER

In the curve of her snowy arms lies her
treasure,
No miser ever SO close
In his counting, recountng in most careful
measure,
The gold that he hid so secure.
The mother looks down with smile SO benign
ant,
look that is stolen from Heayn;
The look that would drive away ali thats s
malignant,
From the side of her little one there.
Each soft lock of hair, she seems in recount
ing
To GID by her love and her pride;
The round Of his face. and the color slow
mounting,
As he sleeps. she imprints on her mind
Rose petal fingers which grasp hers unknow-
ing
Are the strongest to clutch at her soul;
Feet which are helpless, in tender hues glow
ing
She kisses and blesses ofttims.
Her thoughts are but prayers. hallowed. lie
hearkens,
She and her babe. and, He. are one;
For mothers are Heaven. without them all
darkens,
Their love IS all prayer which reaches each
time.

THE THIRD DEGREE

AEANY indignant letters to The Her
W aid show what the people think
AL1 of the third degree"-the po-
lice method of torturing statements out
of suspects. It's latest victim is Mrs.
LAWN, who the police think knows
something about the Times horror, If
the law or it's agents. are cruel they
can't hope to have the popular respect
for themselves or Endorsement for any
results they OBTAIN.
The third degree" has been con-
demned in scathing language by all
who have a knowledge Of its use and
operation. Col Sontagg of the state
board of prison directors, said of it in
the San Francisco Chronicle of Octo-
Der IS:
I'm my opinion the so-called third de-
gree, reported to be in general prac-
tice by police authorities, is the most
barbaric act with which this modern
age is afflicted. I consider it the most
criminal, barbaric and inquisitorial
torture imaginable, and l do believe
that it is responsible for the filling Of
prisons with first and second termers
more than anything else There are
many men VINO, through the torture
of the third degree, commit crimes af-
terward, more out Of a feeling of re-
venge and spite for the rules of So
ciety that permit them to be tortured
than out of criminal instincts"
Colonel Sontagg uses the very argu-
ment that runs as a backbone through
the book, "Crime and Criminals" pub
lished by our Los Angeles Prison Re-
form league. His testimony is the
more valuable inasmuch as the mem
bers of the board of prison directors
are the last persons in the world who
can be accused of mawkish sentiment
ality
The administration of the third de-
gree" is absolutely Illegal, being in
fragrant violation of the constitution
of the United States. Our district at
torney, as the police stations legal ad-
wiser, could stop it in a moment, but
John d. Fredericks is not that sort
of man.

Opposes Sale Of Power

by doing away with the dirt and ashes
of coal and wood and at once settles
the smoke question. Further, the pres
ent rates of insurance could be reduced,
for if the risk Of loss We're reduced
which it certainly would be-the insur-
anee rates would be reduced in proper
ton, and with the wires properly insu-
lated and inspected 1t would so reduce
the risk and danger of con1agration
that full insurance would no longer be
necessary Then also, think of the adj
vantages of electrical power as heat for
cooking purposes; the obnoxious fumes
of gas, the dangerous gasoline, the dirt
and ashes of coal and wood would all
of necessity go and never return.
AS to motive power, IL could be made
so cheap that not only would most of
our manufacturing concerns be glad
to get this power, but many others
would come and locate here If for no
other reason than that of the electric
power alone. What would municipal
electric railroad to our harbor mean?
The present freight rates to and from
that point, plus little thought, and
YOU have the answer 1t would not
only mean lower freight rates ana bet
ter service, but very likely the electro
lizing of all railroads in this part of
the state.
The power companies of this vicinity
must recognize the immense profit this
power affords, because they seem to
want it, and want 1t badly, as evil
denced by their recent argument before
the city council, and the fact that such
recognition alone should be sufficient to
warrant the city in refusing to sell or
lease to any corporation or individual.
except by retail to the inhabitants and
commercial industries of Los Angeles.

EoR AN EleHr-HouR LAW

Editor Herald: 1 am delighted with
your Letter Box, and particularly those
letters on politics and social reforms.
1t seems to be q recognized fact tnat
we need some social reforms, but fol
the life of me I can't see how we are
to get them until there is higher
standard of morality among men than
at present. We keep pinning our faith
to first one politician, then another;
only to find they are no better than
their predecessors. They and the press
of the country make up some bones OF
contention, such as tariff, protection,
free silver, ETC., for the rank and hle
to squabble over, instead of something
that would be a definite benefit to the
millions of toiling people. What dlf-
ference will 1t make to the average
family whether we have high protec-
ton or low protection. so long as we
have no protection from the trusts
and money thieves of this country
Why not work for a national eight
hour law that would do the most good
to the greatest number? Is there any
doubt about the election of any presi-
Dental candidate who would make the
eight-hour law a national issue in the
next general election? A WORKER.

HANDSOMELY DONE

IN HE business men of San Francis
co who, through the chamber of
L commerce of that city, sent gift
of $4,000 in cash to the fund for the
benefit Of the Times sufferers, did a
gracious and handsome thing. The
contribution was spoken Of as a thank
offering in remembrance of the gem
erous relief sent by Los Angeles at
the time of the earthquake, but we
are pleased to believe San Francisco
would have sent it's help without that
inspiration. 1t is characteristic of
California cities to have an open hand
when there is need.
1t may be proper to say in this con-
nection that Los Angeles, in raising
the sum Of $4,000 for the living vic
Tins of the catastrophe, has done a
thing that few cities of it's size and re-
| sources anywhere would have equaled,
! This is equivalent to about a dollar
for every adult resident. In addition
the people of the city, individually and
through the authorities and private
organizations, have raised a reward
fund that we believe exceeds anything
of the kind on record in the nation.
If, as now seems likely, it shall be
| shown that no resident of this city had
a hand in the dastardly act Of Octo-
ber 1st, Los Angeles will emerge from
the cloud cast upon her by the act
not only with her reputation unsulied
but really enhanced by her strong
stand for law and order and generosity
TO those afflicted through the mem
orable calamity
