judge, a sentence or two from the po-
liceman who had made the arrests.

OFFICIALLY WOMAN WAS USELESS
The policewoman looked at them
kindly and shook her head sympa-

less.
1t was not, as might be seen by the
most casual observer. their first expe-
rience of the kind Reformation or
assistance lay not within the power
of the officer.
Then came a case involving the
presence of three little girls in dainty
white frocks and bright hued hair rib
bons.
They had been kept in the judges
chambers until their presence was re-
quired; then they flocked in, under the
care of a dignified woman in black
and an anxious looking man.
The policewoman felt that this was
something in which she was specific
ally interested. She went up to the
bench and made inquiries as to the
nature of the case. consulting care
fully with the judge.

critics altogether and turn them over
TO Tevis, Hanford and their associ-
ates.
More excitement was aroused over
the offer OF a bonus to Smith to get
out of the affair and in return receive
enough money to pay a lot of his
other debts than over the mysterious
story that Hanford had raised eastern
capital enough to carry on the refi-
nancing. Hanford would not reveal
the source of this capital
II this proposition should be ac-
cepted by the trustees Hanford pro-
posed to assume the s2,500.0O0 Halsey
loan, the tidelands debt of s1.1O0. 600
and also all the floating debts and
bonded indebtedness of the traction
company and the light and power
companies and the Union Water and
Sierra Power company.
Ihis proposition was given as one
which the trustees had a limited
number of days to think over In
the event the trustees approve, the
representatives of the new capital
would appear in person and close the
deal.
F. NJ. Smith, through his personal
representative, Louis Bennett. says,
however, that the proposition is
merely a sign that Hanford had failed
in obtaining the promised finances
under the option granted him last Au-
gust by the trustees of the United
Properties company, and a brand new
counter proposition has been offered
which Hanford hopes will be the
basis of new negotiations

Being a policewoman is not so very
exciting. after all.
There are possibilities of thrills. of
course. but the actualities day by day
are rather more of the type that re-
quire the exercise of patience.
There is much rather dull waiting,
tedious investigation, ending, perhaps,
in no result, and the real events come
with a frequency which reminds one
of the homely old saying about hens
teeth.
Yesterday one of the three feminine
members of Chief Whites force spent
the day on watch in the police courts.
Cases specifically involving women
and children were to be her study, as
that seems to be the main duties ex-
pected for policewomen, Dependency
and delinquency are the two phases
of life which must appeal to her. and
for them she must have the guiding
hand, the feminine touch and all that
sort OF thing.
Yesterday was an unproductive day
for the policewoman's end Of affairs.
Just inside the rail she sat, trim,
alert and unobtrusive

women's cases yesterday in the police
court. Sad, sordid sort of offenses or
charges. but nothing in which the
policewomans aid was needed.
First came a waitress who was
ing the peace. In phraseology which
lowered with perfect treasures of
colloquialisms she described the diff
ficulties which arose from the refusal
partners at a dance. The police
woman listened carefully, but the
complainant seemed able to care for
herself, and the officer sat back until
the next woman appeared before the
Judge.
PRETTY GIRL WITH BOLD STARE
She was a pretty girl with a bold
stare, accompanied by worried look
ing man. Before there was time to
get the details or even the charges
against her she was gone. Between
the pauses of the testimony in a tire
some suit about securing automobile
tires under false pretenses the judge
listened to her and dismissed her with
a nod.
Gone was the opportunity for a
guiding hand there.
Then came two miserable women
on charges of vagrancy.
