LOS ANGELES, May Geo.
II. Bixby, millionaire banker of
Long Beach and member of one
of the most prominent families
In Southern California, is today
under arrest charged by two
grand jury indictments with hav-
ing contributed to the delinquency
of minors.
Detectives found the banker at
his home in Long Beach. He was
brought back to Los Angeles i'm
metIiate.y and taken before Judge
Paul j. Mccormack.
BiXby furnished bonds of
$4,000.
The case is one of the most
sensational in the history of Los
Angeles and the police are trying
to dig down deep into the mystery
of the scandal.
Whether a clique of million
aires, men high up in social and
business life of a big city, has
been instrumental in Turing hun
dreds of young girls to ruin or
whether Clique of women has
been trying to blackmail wealthy
men into paying large sums as the
price of women's silence are the
question the police of this city are
trying to answer.
"A woman scorned," says Chief
of Police c. Il. Sebastian, ''is re-
sponsible for opening a vice in
quiry."
Disclosures following the arrest
of Kittie Phillips resulted I'm a
grand jury investigation into
which Bixby's name was drawn.
Kittie Phillips was taken into GUS
tOdy ON charges of alleged black
mail and keeping a disorderly
heuse. The girl, believing the
charges to have been inspired by
a man who had been attentive to
her for several months, told the
police chief of conditions which
led him to call upon the prosecut-
ing attorney to demand grand
jury investigation.
"a man." she alleged, alluding
to the one whom she suspected of
bringing t e charges against her
to force her to leave the city, is
at the head of a ring to betray
young girls through the agency of
a woman who seeks them out"
Kittie Phillips told of orgies i'm
which girls from 10 to 20 years
took part i'm apartment houses and
roadhouses. Los Angeles has no
redlight district.
Mrs. Josie Rosenberg was ar
rested OF charge of contributing
to the linquency of young girls.
Two me were arrested at the
same time and were given Jail SEN
tences on charge of unlawful as
sociation with girls under age.
Girls who. had been summoned
by Kitty Phillips were summoned
TO police headquarters and inter-
roghted as to their knowledge of
organizee white slavery. Two of
these lis were Eva Nesbieth and
Marie Brown Levey. Miss Nes-
biefh IL described as a counterpart

Paper Clothing.

The latest idea is clothing made of
paper. A representative Of a large
English firm of paper manufacturers
states that they are at the present
moment experimenting in the hope Of
producing a kind Of paper really suit
able for the making Of clothes which
can be sewn and hold buttons PA
per towels are an excellent idea-these
are made in Germany" he said. Pa
per hats have been a fashion for
some time. Instead Of wearing wash
able cotton sun bonnets and caps,
children can have each day a new pa
per hat costing from two cents to
twelve cents, which takes one item of
the washing bill. Paper shirts are
being produced at IL cents apiece,
while the cost Of a paper handker-
chief is two cents-the price OF the
washing Of linen one. In the house
hold, too, the washing bill can be
largely reduced by using paper In
stead Of linen, for now there are paper
blinds-lace edged-paper serviettes,
paper toilette mats, paper doilies, pa
per table covers, while paper toweling
| could be adapted to kitchen use for
| tea cloths, busters and similar arti.
cles.

Mourning CoIors.

when people who write for fashion
publication" says a Vienna letter,
"have nothing more to say about
queer-shaped hats, grotesque skirts
and other equally important matters,
they tell us that black is going out and
white is to be the mourning color-if
white may be so termed. This fashion
news item may be looked for several
times year, but black, sombre black,
still maintains it's place. The band on
the sleeve has done much to save
money for those who still wish to wear
a badge of mourning, but the sleeve
band will never be white. The greater
display Of mourning Is made with sta
tionery, the size Of the cards and the
depth Of the black borders indicating
what? There will be real mourning
among the stationers when one may
announce the death Of beloved one
or tell Of his good qualities on paper
which is pure white"

COME ON WITH THE "NOIsE"

The Ocala Star says the Tribune
ought to keep hammering the dirty
cars which are imposed upon patrons
by the railroads. We have been ham
mering" almost necessarily on this
subject, but we have begun to despair.
Nothing has been done by the Rail-
road Commission and the Tribune's
recent appeal to the authority of the
State Board of Health, based upon the
unsanitary conditions on most of these
cars, has been equally fruitless.
The Star says the Tribune is about
ten times as big as the Star and should
be able to 10 ten times as much good
for. when it makes a big noise it is
sure to have a lot of echoes in the
country press, and the country papers
can move mountains when they all pull
together"
All right; we are waiting for the
echoes" Get together and swat the
railroads which require their patrons
to ride in dirty, unsanitary and dis
ease breeding cars Let's make a noise
loud enough to be heard at Tallahas-
see.-Tampa Tribune.

FINAL EVENING OF
:. THE DEMONSTRATION FAIR

The armory was crowded Saturday
afternoon with visitors to the dem
onstration fair, there seeming to be no
Stacking Of interest by the people in
this pretty and useful event.
Much praise was given by all TO the
members Of the Woman's Club for
the brilliant manner in which they
planned the fair and carried out their
plans. 1t was a most successful affair
from both an instructive and social
standpoint
After supper the general cleaning be-
gan, but did not progress very rapidly.
The ladies were tired, as they had
reason to be, and were inclined TO rest
on their laurels and chat with each
other and their visitors, of whom there
were many until 9 o'clock.
During the afternoon and evening,
the Teatley tea booth brewed and dis
pensed five gallons OF fragrant and re-
freshing beverage The o. ks ex-
eellent coffee and the dainty sand
witches at Fl. w. fuckers booth, de-
licious samples OF Miss Harris cook
ing, candy and other delicacies were
freely given to all who would par
take
Mr. C. w. Hunter auctioned off some
OF the agricultural pFOuuctS, IecelF he
good prices for the same.
There were several happy prize
winners, among them Mrs. D. NJ. Smith
whose ingenuity in devising a motto
won the electrical toaster given by the
Ocala Plumbing and Electric Company
Her motto read, Our Policy En-
courages Local Competition Only"
No SO won the handsome centerpiec'
ratified off at the Hayes and Guyn1
booth. This handsome article nettet
$40 for the club. The handmade
bag drawn for at Hayes and Guynn'
in the afternoon was won by Miss Mel
lie Beckham.
The Star was in luck, one of it
representatives winning the box of fin
handkerchiefs given at H. A. Water
mans booth.
The ladies are proud of their success
and are already planning for big
ger fair next year. One thing is Ger
tain, and that is that they will neet
a much larger hall than the armory
which was swarming full every after
noon while the exhibition lasted
The occasion impressed on them NOR
fully than ever the great necessity o
the Woman's Club having a big build
ing of it's own.

ADJUSTMENTS
FIVE REELS EVERY
EVENING AT THE TEMPLE

Now that the road attractions" sea-
son is practically over, Honey Boy

being the only shows booked. I want
TO announce that tonight I viii start
the summer season with the best and
highest priced licensed service of up
to date pictures that has ever been
seen in Ocala Continuing straight
through the summer every
night there will be shown at the
Temple theater, FIVE reels OF fea-
ture licensed films, and after
each reel there will be good music by
the Temple Orchestra which has or
ganized again and which made such
a hit when I first opened at the
Temple theater.
/ have learned by long experience
that rs per cent of the picture theater
patrons want more than three reels
and it is my sole aim TO give my pat
rons what they want and consequently
my reason for installing a FIVE
reel service 80 per cent of the peo-
pie who attend the movies want
good music and now that the shows
will not break in on me 1 can establish
a permanent orchestra Amateur nigh
will continue each Friday night and
there will be one nights week devoted
| to feature reels. Q. GREEN,Mgr.

MIR. K c. Jones, generally known
as Casey JONES'" a we'll known travel
ing man, is in quarantine at DunneI-
Ion. Mr.. Jones left Ocala Friday morn
ing. not feeling very well, but not sick
enough to miss a day from his bust
ness. After interviewing his Gus
toners, he started to return, but i'm
mediately after boarding thetrain be-
came osick that a physical had tC
be called. The doctor said Mr.. Jones
had smallpox, which caused a lively
stampede, shared in by a young lady
from Ocala, who hasn't recovered from
her scare yet. Mr.. Jones was hurried
to an improvised hospital, and the cal
was sidetracked and fumigated. The
latest news from Casey is that he is
doing we'll and most folks are skep-
tical about his disease being smallpox
The Star is Informed, however, that Mr.
Jones says that two weeks ago hi
travelled for some distance with a fam.
lily, member of which broke out with
smallpox a day or so later.

YOUNG MEN IN THE SADDLE
Comparative Youths Are Just Now
Guiding the Destinlss of the
Great British Empire.

Lord Haldane, who has just been
made lord chancellor of England, Is
exceptionally young for the post. He
was born in 1859, remarks the New
York Sun. He is the youngest mem
final court Of appeal-younger than
any of the appeal judges, and he has
only two juniors on the chancery
bench and three on the kings bench.
Winston Churchill is, of course, the
youngest member Of the British gov
eminent, the changes In which en-
tailed by Lord Haldane's transfer have
still further reduced the average age
Of its members. There have probably
been few or no administrations in
which that average has been lower.
Today there is only one minister
seventy and only two are in the six-
ties. Ten, including the premier. are
still In the f1fties, and seven are still
on the right side of fifty
With Winston Churchill, aged thirty
eight, at the admiralty and Colonel
Seely, aged forty-three, at the war Of
fee, youth Is certainly we'll served.
At their combined ages Of eighty-one
Gladstone was at the height of his
fame and the duke of Wellington was
still power in the house Of lords
and In the country.
There are many links between the
careers of Colonel Seely and Mr..
| Churchill. Both were at Harrow and
both saw fighting In South Africa.
l T,la
a cavalry regiment and Colonel Seely
fought with the imperial yeomanry.
Both entered the house In 1900 and
both entered It as unionists. Both
have sat for three different constitu-
encies. Colonel Seely followed Mr..
Churchill as undersecretary for the
colonies, an Office which both held
for two years. Both married soldiers
daughters.
Sir Philip sasson, the new mem
Der for Hythe, ia the "baby" OF the
house Of commons, though he is far
from being the youngest man to enter
that chamber. Leaving Pitt and Palm
erston out Of account, Sir Philip, at
twenty-four, was surpassed in point of
youth by Mr.. Gladstone, who had not
completed his twenty-third year when
he was first returned for Newark. In
modern times Earl Winston was still
younger when he first entered the
house as member for the Horsham di.
vision few months after he had at
tanned his majority.
Before the return OF the new mem
Der for Hythe Viscouat Wolmer had
been the youngest member Of the
house. On the liberal benches the
youngest member is the Hon. F. w
8. McLaren, Lord Aberconway's sec
ond son, who entered his twentyssev
enth year some weeks ago, while W
G. c. Gladstone is nearly twelve
months older.
The labor members have few young
men in their ranks, but the "baby" OF
the nationalists is their leaders son
w. A. Redmond, who celebrates his
twenty-sixth birthday this year.

CLOSE OF THE REVIVAL

The revival meetings that have
been going on here for the past few
weeks, came to a close last night
After preaching a stirring sermon
Rev. Bob Jones made his farewell tC
the people He said he believed that
the meetings had done good, and that
it had done him good to be in Ocala. He
sincerely thanked the people for the
friendship and kindness shown tc
him, and expressed an earnest desire
to meet them all again. Everybody
was deeply moved, and many went
forward to take the revivalist by the
hand. Mr. and Mrs. Jones and child
left this morning via the Oklawahe
river route for PaIatka, from where
they will go to meet apother engage

AN INTERESTING LETTER
FROM MIR. DUAL
Long Grove, Ky, March 8.

Editor Star:-That is a fine editorial
Of yours on the a. c. L. in its de-
mands is surprising. The city might
have been requested to build the de-
pot in addition to giving the streets,
for il and not the railroad will re-
.ceive all the benefits. OF course, the
present shack" is a disgrace TO the
city and not TO the \. c. L.-merely
measures it's business. The ordinance
is either the same, or one very much
the same, as the one which has been
presented to the various councils for
the last five years, and will doubtless
meet with the same fate at the hands
of the present that its predecessors
met at the hands of former councils.
I am improving and hope to be able
soon TO return to Ocala.

some things I must do. The minister
has told me, for instance, that where
I have done wrong, must make resti-

She (sympatheticaIly)- Sometime
that cannot always be done For min
