CENTER STREET
IN TERROR

People living in the vicinity
of Center and Twenty-second
streets are complaining to the po-
lice about a crazy man who ia
frightening women and children.
The police tried to locate him
last night but he escaped into the
thick brush and could not be
found.
Yesterday afternoon the man
was seen chasing children, who
ran screaming into their homes.
Last night he seemed specially to
go after the women.
Throws Stones at Women.
Mrs. Sarah Lestwick, who had
been visiting her daughter, Mrs.
Seymour. on Twenty-first street.
started home about 9 o'clock last
night, the man jumped out of the
bushes and began throwing stones
at her. Mrs. Lestwick is GA and
had difficulty escaping from the
man. If one of the stones had
hit her it might have killed her.
Mrs. Seymour had noticed the
man hanging around early in the
but thought nothing Of
il till later.
Another woman barely escaped
with her children when the man
started after her with club.
The man is described as about
40 years old, of medium stature,
poorly dressed in overalls and
wearing a dark hat. He usually
carries a big club ard hides in the
brush when men ap lear.

MAY FORCE
CHEAPER
GAS
NEW COMPANY MAY COME TO
AID OF PEOPLE UNLESS
DOLLAR GAS is GRANTED.

Announcement in the Times
last night that a fight Is to be
made for dollar gas in Tacoma
was received by the exploited citt-
zens with lot of satisfaction.
Those behind the movement are
men of ability and means and
they are not going to be denied
this time. This is a fight to a
finish, they declare, and they
mean to win.
j. P. Johnson, head of the cof-
fee roasting department of the
West Coast Grocery company, who
is one of the leaders, has been in
gas fights before. And he knows
that gas can be made and sold In
Tacoma for much less than 81 a
thousand feet.
Practically every big business
house in the city is lining up with
the movement and the present gas
company will either have to drop
its price or get out of the field.
New Company Coming.
You can say it authoritatively
that there will be an application
for new gas franchise to cover
the city by men entirely able to
carry the project to a success, -
said Assistant City Attorney Bak-
er this morning.
But not only are the people de-
termined to have cheap gas, they
want good gas also. 1t is fav-
orite trick of gas companies when
forced to lower price to deliver an
inferior gas.
Want Good Gas, Too.
Tacomans are awake to this
game and do not intend to stand
for it.
Dollar gas, unless up to stand
ard, will give us absolutely no re-
lief" says DIR. Herman s. Judd,
who advocates the installation of
gas testing machine by the city.
The people of Tacoma are
heartily sick of the present ex-
tortion and the fight that is start
ing already has assumed a very
businesslike aspect.
The facts are at hand to show
the present company can make
and deliver good gas at less than
81. 1t is up to 1t to do it and
do it quick or have gas fight
on that may mean the ultimate
supplanting of the whole company
by another concern.
The people are going to have
i0lIar gas.

Second Choice at Matrimony Is

CHICAGO, July 29.-That the
second choice in the matrimonial
game is always the best is the
opinion of George M. Ferguson,
originator of the trial separation
idea, who today is on his second
honeymoon.
The first love, Ferguson de-
clares, is animated by impractical
and impulsive emotions and Is
lacking in common sense, both of
which faults, he said, were elm
mated in the second marriage.

that a United States warship will

cause of an outrage committed by
Arabs In that country a year ago,
