New Pullman Car Devices

Philadelphia Ledger: The railroads
whose headquarters are in this city
have been informed by the Pullman
company that it is using new de-
vice in the construction of it's cars,
which has proved highly effective in
tests for preserving the lives of pas
sengers in train collisions. The rail
road men have received this informa-
ton with interest and qualification. In
recent collisions, notably that disas-
ter on the New Haven road at Wal
lingford, Pullman cars have been so
completely demolished that many peo-
pie have come to consider them un-
safe for travel.
Pullman cars are mostly of wooden
frame. Recently the company has
turned to steel construction to avoid
the telescoping and demolishment
which have made wooden cars so un-
safe. But in collisions where the
speed of the colliding train has been
high, evcen steel cars have not proved
to be wholly safe, buckling and being
battered in. That is because rivets
have to be used for joining the steel
walls to the underframes, and these
rivets are sheared or wrenched off in
collisions and the car walls then bat
tered down. Any passengers sitting

No. 4 VS.. WOres
In Court Today

The suit for water rentals of $500 of
imperial Water Company No. versus
C. R. Wores, D. R. Crawford and I. l..
Wilson is before Judge Cole today in
the Superior Court.
Attorney Nichols of Imperial rep
resents Mr.. Wores, Attorney Brown of
Ell Centre, D. r. Crawford and Attor-
ney Dyke of Imperial, I. L. Wilson.
Attorney Wilson of Brawley repre-
sents No 4, the plaintiff.
The case is based on failure of ten
ants, to whom Messrs. Crawford and
Wilson had sub-rented land which
they had rented from C. r. Wores, to
pay their water bills.
Imperial Water Company No. is
suing on a claim made by the COM
pany that Mr.. Wores had guaranteed
water rents of Messrs. Crawford and
Wilson and that they had guaranteed
the water bills of their tenants.
Attorney Brown for Mr.. Crawford
claims that no partnership existed be-
tween Messrs. Crawford and Wilson
and that Mr.. Wilson was not author
i2ed to guarantee any water bills on
the land.
The case presents tangle of inter-
ests which will make it unusually
lengthy.

a tiger were liberated by a collision
between a circus wagon and a street
car and terrorized the city today. Two
of the lions lost no time in jumping
through the plate glass windows of
Blucher hotel, where, after threaten
ing everyone from the office, they pro-
ceeded to roam the corridors, the
guests barricading themselves in their
rooms, shrieking for help. Firemen
and troops were called and the beasts
minally lossooed and executed. A third
lion jumped to the seat of an autobus,
the driver plunging to the pavement.
A policeman shot the brute before
harm was done. Other lions were
shot in the streets by amateur big
game hunters. The tiger was capt
ured by a woman trainer.

STYLES and Young Women

Toronto Republican,: "There are
lots of pretty girls in this town, just
lots of them," said the he one of an
elderly duo. "Well," admitted the
other, "almost any young girl is good
looking if she knows how to dress and
keep a good complexion" And it is
true. Style and material differ from
generation to generation, but youth
IS ever fresh and fair, no matter with
what absurdities she decks out her
loveliness. When our mother and
your grandmothers were young, they
wore billowly, beruffled robes held
out by hoopskirts. They wore low
necks and short sleeves, too-lower
and shorter than you dare wear today
And they peeped coquittishly out
from roses wreathed inside big poke
bonnets, and they were just as sweet
and pretty as you are today.
"And your mothers wore tight bas-
ques and big bustles and flaring skirts
and little hats and polonaises and
chenille fringe and bead passemen-
terie and kilt plating, and she caught
fathers eye in spite of it all. So don't
be discouraged, young ones, because
of the slinky, feline styles of today
There is always modest, colder
mean to any freak fashion, and the
modest worthwhile girl always finds
it. And do not laugh too laudiy al

Cotton Profits This Year
Smashing All Records
Making Growers Wealthy

In no other year has the~cotton crop
yielded so great revenue per acre as
the crop now being harvested, and it
looks as though Imperial valley
would this year receive a million and
a half dollars for the lint and seed.
From every part of the valley the1e e
comes reports of large yield, while the
price is holding up splendidly, with
present prospect for continued good
prices.
Estimates of the yield this yea,
exceed 10000 bales, and the quota
tions thus far indicate the value as
above stated.
The magnitude of the crop and the
brilliant outlook is attracting very
wide attention, the agricultural de-
partment at Washington having TAX
en- cognizance of it, while the railroad
officials, having had their attention
attracted to the conditions, are widely
Imperial Valley press., 1913-10-20

heralding the conditions here.
AS the growers have obtained moro
experience with the crop under local
conditions, the average yield has In.
creased greatly, and the predictions
now are for vast increase in the 'ac-
reage another year.
AS yet there is no basis on which to
determine the value of the Durango
cotton, which constitutes about third
of the crop, and it is a matter Of con.
lecture how much this cotton viii
bring above the price of the upland
The cotton picking is now at its
maximum activity, and the teams are
passing through town hourly loaded
with the field cotton, many returning
to the farms with the baled cotton, to
be held for market, though an un-
usual percentage is being marketed as
soon as ginned, the price being very
satisfactory.
