KlDNAP HEARING
by United Press Leased Wire

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 11.--Night
sessions Of court will be held to
speed proceedings in the Mary Pick
ford kidnapping trial if testimony
is not completed by tonight
Intimating the case was being
dragged out to unnecessary lengths,
Judge Victor McLucas advised attOr
neys for both sides today to pre-
pare for nocturnal sessions, and a
speedy termination of the case.
Adrian j. Wood, third and last
of the defendants called to the wit
ness stand, underwent a severe
examination today at the hands
of states attorneys.
Wood testified the entire icon
spiracy,, was just "big talk, '~and
that none of the defendants at any
time had taken seriously the alleged
plot to kidnap the famous movie
star and hold her for ransom. Louis
Geek. police informant, was the
moving spirit in all the discussions,
the witness said.
The defense claims Geek "trap.
ped the defendants into the econ
spiracy' as part of a publicity
scheme to gain credit for the city
detective force.

THINK POISON
BOOZE CAUSED
LE0NI'S DEATH

Investigations conducted by Cor
oner Lemons into the death OF
James Leoni. who died suddenly in
this city yesterday morning, led to
the belief that death was caused by
drinking poisoned Liquor.
There was nothing to show that
Leoni took his life, and it is now
thought that following a protracted
drinking spree, he purchased some
bootleg liquor, which contained
wood alcohol or some other poison,
and that death followed when he
drank some of it. This conclusion
was reached following an autopsy
on the body yesterday afternoon.
John Massarini, an uncle or the
dead man. took charge of the BODY
this morning upon instructions from
Leoni's brothers. who live at fres-
no. Funeral services will be held
from Lemons parlors tomorrow
morning at 10 clock followed by
services ut the Catholic church
Burial will be in Evergreen ceme-

FINES RANCHER
FOR FAILING TO
REMOVE WEEDS

Full cooperation with the horti-
cultural commissioner office in
enforcing the state law relating to
noXious weeds viii be given by
Judge Mayfield, the latter stated
this morning in imposing u $50 fine
on II. G.. Rinkleib. rancher in the
Mesquite Lake district, for failing
to comply with an order from the
commissioner s of,ice to remove
noXious weeds on his property.
In addition to the fine, the court
imposed q sentence of 10 days in
Jail, execution being suspended upon
condition, that Rinkleib clean up
his property which is infested with
johnson grass.
Otis Kelso, inspector for the hor-
! ticultural commissioner, appeared in
court against Rinkleib, and inform
ed Judge Mayfield that several no.
tees to remove the Johnson grass
i had been sent to Rinkleib but the
| latter refused to pay any heed to
j them. When personal visit was
! made to Rinklcib ne would not
give the officials any satisfaction.
In passing sentence on Rinkleib
Judge Mayfield stated the laws of
i the state are made t) be enforced,
and he added that violation of the
inoxious. weed law is a serious Of
] fenSc, inasmucl rs large areas of
land might be rendered unfit for
cultivation f the weed is allowed
to spread.
! Under the state law, tenants on
/ land infested with noXlous weeds
can be compelled to remove these
weeds, it was stated at the horticul-
! tural commissioner s office. Some
I tenants hold that eradication OF
weeds is matter for the landown'
er to worry about, but this is not
true as the law makes the tenant
equally responsible.
In places where johnson grass eX'
lists the present is a particularly
dangerous time to neglect taking
steps to eradicate it as it will &C
to seed in Il few weeks and spread
to. adjacent land.
