TO. BALLOT ON
THE ALIEN BILL

SACRAMENTO, April 30.-The
stage is set for final scenes in the

tempts are made to amend the
measure by the democrats 1t will
be passed according to schedule.
"I have fulfilled my mission, :"
Secretary of State Bryan announc-
ed at the close of the executive
session with the legislature last
night. He had just told the leg
islators that he had telegraphed a
copy of the Webb bill to the gresi-
dent.
"The president does not deem
it advisable to endorse any anti
alien legislation at this time"
said Bryan.
Bryan's visit has resulted in the
changing In the wording of the
anti-alien land law only. Instead
of saying that aliens ineligible to
citizenship shall not hold land,
the bill will declare that aliens
ineligible to citizenship shall be
allowed to hold land.
''The people of California in
formed the legislature they want
ed an anti-alien land law" said
a prominent legislator today.
"They declared it in many letters
and kilograms; they did not care
how such law was worded, or
what diplomatic terms were used
The president said ne desired that
words ineligible to citizenship be
not used. We have satisfied the
people Of California and the fed
leral administration with this bill. .

of the child.
He allowed his attorneys to
stipulate that he had been guilty
of improper relations with the
girl, but emphatically denied
while testifying that there had
ever been promise of marriage,
and attempted by a long string of
testimony to prove that Rex B.
Clark, a millionaire rancher, had
also been guilty of similar inti-
macy with the prosecuting wit
ness.
There was nothing to show that
Clark had been guilty of any
wrong-doing. 1t was established
that Ervay took the girl to the
Hotel del Coronado on the night
of April IL, 1912, and registered
her as his sister, Margaret
Ervay."
1t was then, she testified, that
he betrayed her under promise to
make her his. bride ON the follow

Just a little baby girl-a
sort of human question mark

sOrdid reams of testimony
about her-and the fight not

of the ease of Henry $. Err

Elsie NJ. Johnston of wrong

marriage.
At the end of q trial last
ing 10 days--a trial fraught
with bitterness and sensa-

Fruit NAV be cooked in the jar or in

sugar should be used than would be
desirable if it were to be eaten fresh.
To preserve the original taste and color
it should be cooked as little as consistent
with good keeping and handled very
carefully. Fruit cooked in the jars in
which it is to be kept has better flavor
and color.
Fruit may be cooked in this way by
the use of the time-honored glass can
with a screw-on top. or by the use Of
any of the new wide-mouthed jars.
Fruit canned in this way is put into
