point often comes in for special con-

MAKING PLANS FOR GARDENS
Well TO Remember That Quick. Grow

In Poor Soils.

When laying on the garden IL Is well
to remember that lettuce, radishes, tur-
nips, onions. heetS cabbage and all OF
the quick'growing salad plants will not
grow satisfactorily unless planted In
rich soil. Quick growth is necessary to
evold their being tough and unpala-

and pole and lima beans will grow well
on any fairly fertile new soil.

Soy beans may he satisfactorily

crops, thus affording a greater vari-

mixture Of soy beans and cowpeas

FATTY ARBUCKLE
HELD FOR MURDER
Continued from First Page).

is held next Thursday, it was an
nouncd.
Miss Rape died Friday after she
was removed from Arbuckle's rooms
in a hotel last Monday in a critical
condition following a party at which
five men and four women were pres
ent. Autopsy surgeons said death was
due to peritonitis, superinduced by an
internal injury.
Dist. Attorneys Statement.
Assistant District Attorney Milton U.
Rem said the charge of murder was
based on a section of the penal code
directing that such charges be made in
cases where death resulted from a
felony-in this instance, actual or at
tempted assault
Accompanied by his attorney, Ar
buckle came here by automobile last
night from Los Angeles and went. at
once to police headquarters. He was
questioned by detectives for several
hours, but on advice of his attorney,
refused to answer questions. At mid
night, Capt. Matheson ordered him
booked for murder.
Refuses To Smile.
Arbuckle lost his usual jaunty man
ner, and as he posed for newspaper
photographers who asked him to smile,
he said: Not on an occasion of this
Sort
All today Arbuckle persisted in re-
fusing to answer questions of the police,
and his attorneys, under whose instruc-
tons he was acting, declined to discuss
the case.
Chief of Police Daniel O'Brien, Capt.
Mathewson and Mr.. U'Ren issued a
signed statement as follows:

Arbuckle. He either attempted a felo-
NOUS attack or committed a felonious
attack upon her. That is first degree
murder. and on that we were unanim-
Gus. Nobody can come to San Fran
cisco and do q thing like this and get
away with it.
I'VE believe that we have plenty of
evidence to substantiate the charge of
murder that has been made in this
case
Anti MOrtem Statement.
Sensational evidence in the form of
an affidavit signed by Mrs Jean Jane
son, the nurse who attended Miss Rappe
at her death, was said to have been the
basis of the police case against Ar
buckle. The affidavit, as made public
by the police, quoted Mrs. Jameson as
saying:
''She said she blamed Arbuckle for
her injuries and wanted him punished
for it. That was j;.St before she died,
which was about 1 o'clock in the after
noon on September 8. 1 noticed abra-
sions on her body, her left thigh and
her upper right arm, 1 think, and she
said they were made by Arbuckle
This is a true statement made by
me freely and voluntarily, without fear
of punishment or hope of reward
Victim 25 Years Old.
Miss Rape was % years old and
was born in Chicago. She attracted at
tention in that city in 1913, it is said,
by advice to young women to create
original methods of making a living
She was then making 81 600 a year as
a travelling art model, she said. Miss
Rape came to San Francisco in 1915
and for time designed gowns and
wore them as model. She began act
ing in motion pictures at Los Angeles
in 1917, and took leading parts in sew
eral.
