RIDICULOUS RUMOR OF DEATH

how foolish the story was, rs the
American boundary line is about 60
miles from Sierras Pintas, which il

Running down the yarn caused
considerable work on a hot day. and
newspaper folks cussed the mis-
guided brain of the party who
started the rumor. Apparently the
latter was caused by an over in
duIgcuce of tequila, plus a healthy
imagination.
Several local residents who have

calls from the latter, asking how
many people had been killed here,

san FRANCISCO, June 81
The British minister at Pekin has
made Il demand upon China for in
demnity because of the Shameen
riots in which British subjects were
wounded. the Chinese Times told the

The demand, said advices to the

The Chinese newspaper Chung Sal
Vat Po reported to the United Press
that British and French ambassa-
dors had jointly protested to the
Chinese foreign office at Pekin over
the wounding of British subjects and
killing of French subjects by Chin
ese at Shameen. According to this
paper the foreign office suggested
that such protest should properly be
made to the Canton government.
The Times said it had been in
formed that the diplomatic corps at
Pekin had replied to the Chinese
note, saying the time was inoppor-
tune for revision of treaties that the
Chinese had stamped as unequal. p"
Chung Sal Vat Po reported its
Hong Kong correspondent as cab
ling that the Chinese banks there
had decided to reopen their doors
Monday. Further evidence of the
breaking down of the strike there
was seen by the newspaper in q re-
port that two Chinese ships were

blamed on crossed eyes today
when DR.. Henry j. Sclireson,

NO FORMAL PLAN
OF DEFENSE DAY
OBSERVANCE HERE

Mayor Anderson is in receipt of
letter from r. +. MittelStaeat, the
adjutant general of California, call
ing attention 10 Defense Day. which
is to he observed this year ON the
Fourth of July.
The object Of Defense Day, is to
mobilize for the day only, the
theoretical and practical military
strength of the country, not as
show of military power, but TO en-
able the government to ascertain
the details of mobilization, in case
such n need should arise. also to in
spire patriotism and to act as n
check on the military resources of
the country.
Throughout the country the day
will be observed by parades, patrio-
tie progress, mobilization of the reg
ular army. reserve army and nat
ional guard units, and in some places
by sham battles or other military
maneuvers. The success of Defense
Day last year was very gratifying
TO the military and government lead
ers, and was made possible by the
whole hearted cooperation of the en-
tire country.
This year an even more satisfac-
tory observance is anticipated mas
much as the idea was new last year.
The movement has the endorsements
of the national organization of the
American Legion, which has pledged
itself to aid in every way possible
in carving out the Defense Day
plans.
While there will be no public
demonstration in FL Centre, Mayor
Anderson urges every citizen to
give thought on Fourth of July to
our country, and to renew allegiance
to the United States and its Con-
stitution, recalling to mind the
patriotism of the country's heroes in
time of peace and in war and pledg-
ing themselves to carry on as good
citizens, the traditions which are a
part of American history.
The mayor has advised the ad-
iutant general that due to climatic
conditions and the fact that the
majority of the people will be away
from home on Defense Day, a praeti-
cal observance of the day is not
possible. but that the people of the
city of FL Centre endorse the idea
whole heartedly and that no COM
munity will prove more willing to
aid the nation at any time that the
need should arise.
