Nurses Have Lots of
Fun Stealing Melons,
But Doctor Paid Bill

Now that the watermelon season in
Sonoma county is over the farmers
around Santa Rosa are enjoying a
quiet little laugh at the expense OF
half q dozen pretty nurses of the
Mary Jesse hospital.
DIR. ]. w. Jesse, head of the Santa
Rosa institution. Is known through
out the valley as wit.
When one of his prettiest little
nurses said she would pine away if
she couldn't go out and steal water
melon Just for the fun of It," DR..
Jesse was worried. Next day, how
ever, he bundled four or five of the
girls into his auto and whirled them
all out into the country. They climbed
cautiously over a fence, swooped down
on a patch of fine, big melons and
carried them away with terrified
backward gIances and suppressed gig
giles. This proved such great sport
that the doctor repeated the perform
ance about twice a week.
The girls thought 1T all great joke
on the farmers, but 1t is the latter
who are laughing now. The secret is

DIR. Jesse, before each stealing" ex-

things with the farmer, paying him

Efforts to Close Deal Dropped
When Western Pacific Fails
to Meet Price and Cash

When President Benjamin f. Bush
OF the Western Pacific laughingly re-
marked several days ago that 'he
couldn't buy Oakland. Antioch and
Eastern with promises he scored a
Ibullseye. I'VE can't buy until we sell, ?
said Mr.. Bush at that time, and re-
cent events have proved the truth Of
his assertion.
1t was learned this morning from
those on the inside that the Western
hours to close deal with the Oak
land, Antioch and Eastern. but that it
offered not only a lower price than
that railroad considers its holdings
worth. but also Western Pacific
couldn't produce the necessary cash.
In other words, the Oakland, An
tioch and Eastern can't see the
philosophy or business acumen in
taking green paper for yellow paper.
Therefore. the deal between the
two railroads is practically at a
standsti1l, although the Western Pa
cific is firm in its belief that the cleo
trio line from Sacramento to San
Francisco is valuable property for it
to acquire.

cluding several New York bankers.
leave San Francisco tonight for a
leisurely trip back to New York.
They will traverse the surveyed route

Ralph c. Goodwin, secretary Y NJ. C.
Al am certainly happy to hear
of the acquittal of Bells. 1t was a
very unjust accusation against him,
and / am glad to express my ap-
proval of the verdict.
II was absolutely not possible for
such charge TO prevail. There
could not be a scintilla OF truth in
II. Ones reading of history and
ones knowledge OF the Jewish life
are entirely convincing as to the
impossibility OF such practices.
Rev. Father Ramm, secretary of Arch
bishop Riordan--I am glad Bells
was acquitted. ! am sure that the
accusation of ritual murder is false.
1t is absurd, In fact.
There Is a difference in what an
organization and an individual may
do. I do not believe that the Jewish
church would countenance such a
thing, but whether or not Bells
committed a murder is another
thing. and that depends upon the
testimony.
The Catholic church has, through
it's successive popes. for more than
700 years declared against the belief
in ritual murder.
Rabbi Bernard VI. Kaplan of Congre-
cation Ohabai Shalome-The ac-
quittal of Bells is a triumph for
the American liberal press and the
millions of liberal minded Christians
throughout the world who have
protested so earnestly against the
ritual blood accusation.
1t means. also. the dawn of a
more liberal humanity in Russia
The world is progressing.
Mayor James Rolph Jr.---I am delight
ed TO hear this good news. My SYM
pathy has been with the Jewish
people In this blasphemous attempt
to attack their character. and / re-
joice with them in the outcome of
this case and extend to them my
heartfelt congratulations
Mayor Mott of Oakland-That the ac-
quittal Of Bells upon a charge of
ritual murder was due in a great
part to the worldwide protest
against this wicked accusation there
can be no doubt. / believe the peo-
pie of Oakland, without respect to
creed or religious faith, rejoice in
the verdict.
For more than two years this
charge has hung over an humble
follower of the Jewish faith. During
that time. and up TO the hour of ac-
quittal, there has been such pro-
test made that the force of Ii could
not be overlooked by the Russian
government. This is another evi-

action 80 days, and their attitude re-

There is not a penny in the treas

Jew Charged With Killing of a

dinary criminal case, the Kiev trial
held the attention of the civilized
world because of the religious racial
elements injected into it by the Rus
sian government.
The anti-Semitic hostility of the
government here was given free play.
The prosecutor sought to make it ap-
pear that the Jew had killed the
Christian boy for ritual motives.
From the very first the defense met
legal blow with blow, and before the
trial was half over 1T became appar-
ent that the government would bring
down tremendous censure on itself if
it allowed verdict of guilty to be
returned.
