ORDER OF MOOSE FINDS
WORK FOR AUTOMOBILE

Ever alive to It's duties as an organ
ixati0n, certain iraternal order in
y Los Angeles has found q new use for
the automobile.
Several months ago when there ap-
poared special need for charitable
work among its members, the Loyal
Order Of Moose Of that city established
what Is known as its Relief Commit
tee Immediately the wisdom of the
move became apparent and since its
formation the work OF the committee
has been most effective
Handicapped, however, because OF
the lack OF facilities for calling on the
members In need and distributing sup
plies, the officers OF the lodge hit upon
the idea Of purchasing an automobile.
So apparent was the need Of the Relief
Committee that the idea Of buying a
car for its use met with hearty approx
~ and the progressive members of the
lodge voted to purchase touring car.
Now the Relief Committee has the
automobile-a beautiful Regal.
Our membership, writes w. A.
Anderson, of Los Angeles, Dictator OF
the lodge, sis over $500 and SO large
that Il Is impossible for the Relief
Committee to do its dnty without the
aid OF the automobile. The new Regal
- being used to great advantage every
day and by its use the Loyal Order of
Moose has jumped into the front ranks
IN its work for charity. We have
found the automobile an effective fac
tor for the success OF the Relief Com
mittee and can strongly recommend
that other organizations buy a motor
car for a similar purpose"

nORAnS \ Me BLAtKENED
/ BY MOTHER AND DAUGHTER
Mrs. Louise Ruprecht Unmoved
In Court by Testimony
of Relatives

Mrs. Louise Ruprecht sat in Judge
Colds court, Friday, and heard her
mother. Mrs. Sophia Kern, and her
1.year-old daughter. Mrs. Lillian Mac
Lean, testify against her in the suit
for divorce, brought by her husband,
Herman Ruprecht, musician. The
defendant was apparently little moved
when these two witnesses made most
serious charges against her, coupling
her name with that OF DIR. N. f. Har-
rison. who has an ONCE on Gratiot-
ave-. near st. Aubln.
The Ruprechts were married In
1898, and separated In 1910. The
wife fatty denies the charges against
her.
Mrs MacLean testified that her
mother frequently came home late
smelling OF strong drink. She also
said that many times she answered
the phone. when men would ask for
Miss Louise"
Mrs. Kern told of entering the Rup-
recht home and finding DR.. Harrison
there. She said her daughter was
very angry at the intrusion and swore
at her.
Charles Ruprecht, a brother OF the
pIaintif, and William Kuhagen,
cousin, a pitcher for Battle Creek,
ID the Southern Michigan league, al
% gave testimony rejecting on Mrs,
Huprecht.
The Ruprechts are we'll known and
well connected In the eastern part OF
the city, and the case is being watch
Cd with great interest by a large
number Of people.

were elected on municipal ownership
platform and only five or six OF them
voted against the submission OF this
franchise TO the people The rest.
while protesting TO be In favor OF
municipal ownership. saw At 10 disre-
gard their pledges.
The franchise supporters tell US
that well have bunch OF lawsuiS 4 .
we don't settle now. What assurance
have we that we wouldn't have any
lawsuits after this franchise expired
In 1924? Why put on the fight for Is
years?
There Is nothing in that franchise
that looks good to me. It's full OF holes
and promises that will never be carr
ried out, and what Is more, IL Is
against the constitution of the state OF
Michigan in that the city binds itself
to suspend the power or taxation.
Don't fail to vote no next tues
day. and when this fight Is over wen
have fiat three-cent fares and destins-
ton transfers"
In answer to query No. 1, Mr.. Dust
advocated condemnation proceedings
as the quickest way TO acquire the
lines.
IF the ordinance fails when do we
get the extensions?" was another
question.
When the ID. u. r. stops fighting
In the courts" was the frank reply.
When will We get three-cent fares
II this ordinance Is not adopted. =
II don't know; no one knows. The
harder we fight the quicker they will
come"
How will We get more cars and
better service?"
Elect new board OF aldermen and
a mayor who will not advocate ans
other franchise"
Mr.. Dust suggested that the city
could begin nosy TO try out municipal
ownership by paralleling some OF the
lines with motor vehicles, which could
be built by home industry. and his
suggestion was heartily applauded.
Mayor Thompson addressed about
400 employees OF Parke. Davis a. Co.
Friday noon. at the plant. and was
well received, Only a few employees
asked questions. No vote was taken
and Il was impossible TO say just how
the sentiment was divided.
At o'clock, the mayor spoke to
the employees of the Solvay Process
Co. Tonight he has three meetings,
all In the west end. -

mittee went on record, Thursday

CONNECT SMORRIS
WITH MONOPOLY PLAN

CHICAGO, Jan. 19.-Profting by It's
failure last week TO secure the intro
duction Of testimony to connect j..
Ogden Armour directly with the mo
nopOly conspiracy in which IL is al
legged his company was engaged, the
government In the packers trial to-
day made sure OF its ground in the
case OF Edward Morris by showing
that he and Louis II. Heyman, both
defendants, directed the secret test
cost" department of the Morris COM
pany.
This was shown through Walter A.
Wall. former office manager for Nor
ris at East st. Louis. but now with
m Independent packing concern. Wall
testified that he had been sending the
~test cost" sheets from the East ST.
Louis plant direct to Morris, but in
january, 1909, he received orders to
cease sending the sheets to Morris
and to send two copies to Heyman.
The government also showed
through Wall that In all the plants
of the Morris company, the order to
resume the allowance for the cost OF
hides In figuring the cost of meats
was resumed at the same date. The
government will now undertake to
show. In support Of its general con-
spiracy charge, that the Armour COM
pany and the National Packing Co.
ceased to make the hide allowance
and resumed II at the same date as
the Morris company. The allowance
was resumed. Wall testified, on April
IS. 1909, when the packers were under
FEDERAL Investigation. He admitted
that to overcome the hide allowance
after that date, an arbitrary boost in
the killing cost of 80 cents for each
animal was made.
Wall was called after the attorneys
for the packers had agreed to submit
AL the books Of the defendants to ex-
animation by an accountant to be ap-
pointed by the court This offer Is
still under consideration.
