provided to carry the crowd of one
hundred persons from the park Do

when the car started, and believing
he would not be noticed, he seized
the ankle Of woman who was stand
ing on the step above him. She told
her husband, however, and Patrolman
Henry Westenberg, who is deputized
to act as sheriff at the dances, was
then notified
Fell Off the Car.
The car was nearing Centerville,
when Westenburg made his way to-
ward the rear platform where Doran

ing. he promptly fell off the car. which

DIDN'T KNOW GUN
WAS LOADED PLEA

"Just in fun," Robert Jones, a Ken
tucky negro, pointed a hammerless re-
volver at Harley Simpson, colored, 226
North Fourth street, but contrary to
his expectations, Jones claims, the gun
went off. Both Jones and Simpson
stated to the police yesterday that the
revolver was pointed for fun and that
the bullet exploded when the hammer
was accidentally struck.
An investigation revealed that the
revolver was hammerless and that it
had been loaded shortly before the "ac-
cident." The bullet missed Simpson
and crashed through the door of his
home, lodging in the wall
Jones was fined s5 and costs in po-
lice court this morning, charged with
carrying concealed weapons. His fine
was paid.

STREET OILED AND
IS THEN TORN UP
South Fifth Street People
Say They Did Not Get
Square Deal"

Did the city give Will Quigg and
John Zwissler and other business men
and residents of the first square on
South Fifth street. a square dear A.
ter they had paid to have the street
oiled and the city had rolled II with a
street roller, destroying the effect of
the oil?
Quigg and Zwissler. representing the
entire square, state that the city
should replace the oil and have told
Mayor Zimmerman their views on the
matter. The matter was laid aside by
the mayor with his usual sign of dis
missal: 'T'll look into the matter"
The street was oiled almost three
weeks ago under private contract,
Quigg and Zwissler agreeing to make
the payment for the work for those in
the block who were not able to afford
oil. 1t cost these men so each. Five
or six others on the street donated to
the fund
Before the oiling was contracted for,
the men petitioned the city, asking
that the street be repaired. A few re-
pairs were made then and the oil plac-
ed on IL. The street dressing had not
dried when a force of men from the
street department tore up the street.
A new macadam surface was made but
even this is not satisfactory. The men
who paid for the street oiIing now ask
that the city reoil the street but be-
lieve the prospects for satisfaction are
small.

arms here today to quell the expected
rioting of hundreds of hop pickers
who engaged in a battle with a sher-
ifs posse last night, killing nine and
wounding 25 others. Leaders of the In

vile, Constable l.. G. Anderson, of
Wheatland, Marshal Scoggins of
Wheatland, postmaster John Johnson
of Wheatland, and George Bilby of
Marysville. Many of the strikers were
reported suffering from fatal injuries
today.
The striking hop pickers urged on
by l. w. w. agitators attacked the
small sheriff's posse that had entered
the strike region to preserve quiet
The strikers had demanded higher
wages, and when this demand was re-
fused, walked out of the fields, the
leaders asserting that they were ag-
grieved because OF their low wages
and the presence of Japanese work
ers in the fields where they were
picking.
In addition to the troops ON duty
here, 800 citizens of Wheatland, arm
ed and in charge of police chief Nc
Coy of Marysville, were kept in readi-
ness to quell trouble that was expect
cd to start today. There were about
500 hop pickers on strike and the I.
w. w. leaders were trying to add to
their forces by calling out the pickers
from all the surrounding farms.

AS TO THE LOCATION
OF FIRE STATIONS

There seems TO prevail in the east
end OF the city an apprehension that
il bonds for the new fire station are
voted tomorrow, il will mean that the
long needed protection on the bluff
will not be provided for. This is abso-
lutely a mistake.
The station to be voted on tomor-
row will be known as No. and will
be located in the southwest section of
the city. Station No. 4 for the bluff
district on Elm street has already been
provided for. an appropriation for the
erection OF the hose house having
been made some time ago by the city
commission. At the meeting of the
council last Monday the mayor was
authorized 10 advertise for bids.
With the establishment of these two
stations the city then promises 10
move the station on Seventh avenue
east Of Elm street 10 the former To-
cation on Twenty-sixth street. In this
way all parts of the city will be prop
erly cared for.
