And two years ago Colorado went

would have been drug on the mar

PLAN TO SEGREGATE SEXES
IN PARK Is ABANDONED
Funny Story Marks Passing of
Proposed Regulation

Certificates of morality will not be
required to enjoy a seat in Central
park, after all. Having carefully con-
sidered the proposal to segregate the
sexes. and having heard some forceful
opinions regarding the plan, members
of the park commission have aban-
doned it. At the meeting yesterday
mornn the plan was dropped
Commissioner O'Melveny took his as
sOciates into his confidence and related
a conversation he had heard on a street
car. Immediately the commission de-
cided to permit the old plan to con-
tinue except that the seats along the
walk from Fifth and Olive streets to
the fountain in the center will be re-
served for women and children.
Mr.. O'MelVeny was on his way
downtown when he heard two men dis
cussing the commissions proposal to
segregate the sexes. one of them
said:
segregation of the sexes in Central
park is one of Judge Silent's ideas.
Those other doddering idiots sit on that
park commission and vote for the
things he wants to put over" Judge
Silent enjoyed the joke more than any
other member of the commission.

PRISONER PARALYZED, SO
COURT IS HELD IN WAGON
Judge Goes to Black Maria,
Where Accused Man Is
Formally Arraigned

Justice .Summerfleld held court in a
wagon yesterday at the arraignment
of f. X. Baker, charged with issuing
worthless checks, who told the jailers
he couldn't walk.
The county's "Old Black Maria" was
pressed into service. When the squeak>
ing vehicle, which has seen many
years of faithful service and always
found business good. drove up before
the court room Judge Summerfied
stepped heavily into the bus and took
seat. Bailiff Richardson crowded in
alongside the prisoner and thumped
for "Oder in the cut"
Between frequent starts made by
the horses, who scented something un-
usual. Judge summertield read the
charge.
"Jedgo, [ never seen this town be-
fore" blurted the prisoner.
Il trust you will like it, replied the
judge, 'and fix your ball at $500 with
preliminary examination on Decem-
Der 21."
With as much dignity as possible
the judge backed from the vehicle,
followed by the bailiif who lodged
his entire 200 pounds on the prisoner S
right foot. Baker WINGED and looked
angry, but he was paralyzed and didn t
feel it, so the bailiff forgot to apollo
gize.
Baker was brought from Louisiana
several days ago by Deputy Sheriff
Woods. When Woods placed him
under arrest the prisoner lost the use
of his legs, he SAID, from the shock.
and Woods was forced to carry him to
jail carry him to the depot and pack
him on his shoulder when they
changed ears." Yesterday, however,
Woods refused to do the trained nurse
stunt even for the sheriff.

CITY FARM TO START
WITH TWENTY ACRES

As a nucleus for the municipal farm
the water department has agreed to let
the police department have twenty acres
of its richest land In the san Fernando
valley. but the water department wants
an official request made for the land.
In compliance with this desire the
police commission last night voted TO
ask the city council TO ask the water
department for the use of the twenty
acres. 1t Is officially described as lots
, and 3 of block So OF Rancho Pro-
Nidencia and Scott's tract.
Ii was originally intended to have
farm of 800 acres, but the twenty acres
is considered sufficient for the expert
meni. The council has allowed 5000
in the budget for the project. IL is
planned to have city prisoners work on
the farm instead of the chain gang.
