Red Bluff, Cal.-For 10 years
Miss Nina E. Robinson has fought
to give her daughter name. But
all her efforts came to naught.
A few days ago she demanded of
the local district attorney that
Thomas v. Walton, wealthy dairy
man, be forced to marry her, sup
port her 17-year-old daughter, who,
she claims, is Walton's also, and
give her his name.
Informed that nothing could
be done, Miss Robinson commenc-
ed to shoot. For 10 hours, barri-
caded in the district attorneys Of
flee, she held the police and city
officials at bay, only to be captured
by ruse.
The outcome of the case is prob
lematical, but it is expected that
public opinion will force Walton to
marry her.
Miss Robinson declares that she
is ready to divorce Walton imme-
diately, if he will marry her, for
what she desires most is a name
for her daughter, who is known in
the movies as June Love.

The John Jennisch store at 1920
Tenth street was entered through
the cellar window. When THE pro-
prietor arrived this morning all
the doors were open. The cash
register was also open, but moth
ing was taken.
The unsuccessful attempt to en-
ter was made at the Fullerton

Twentythird avenue. A hole *
inches in diametr was bored

Per

There were no dissenting votes
to the proposition. However, there
were q number Of suggestions that
it will be difficult to obtain money
to build an ice plant Also that
the city will have considerable
competition in cold weather.
Alderman Anderson claims that
ice can be produced to sell at 50 a
thousand pounds, $3.50 cheaper
than the present price in Moline.
He pointed out that the city has
at the waterworks all the facilities
for making ice with the minimum
Of overhead expense. He cited
Omaha as an example where one
city is making ice to retail at s. a
thousand.

the waterworks, practically corro-
borated Mr.. ,Anderson's statements.
