SAN BERNARDINO, Cal, Nov.
27. (UP)-Police today attempted to
identify Abraham Eshoo, 28-year-
old transient, as the slayer of JOS
eph Reinesch, San Francisco labor
organizer, as Eshoo lay dying in
the county hospital.
Eshoo, mortally wounded by a
patrolman early today when he
shot it out with the officer in a
street duel, made rambling death
bed confession in which he claimed
he was being bounded" He made
no mention of the San Francisco
murder case. and was beyond fur
ther questioning.
Police however. compared his pic
lures with those Of the man sought
for ReineSch'S murder, and were
taking finger-prints in an effort
to complete the Identification.
He was not expected to live
through the day.
Patrolman George Pickett had
noted Eshoo trying doors in the
business district early today. and
when ordered out of town, Eshoo
assertedly pulled gun and started
firing at the officer
Pickett returned the fire, one
bullet knocking the gun from Esh-
COS hand, but the latter picked it
up with his left hand and con-
tinued to spray bullets at the Off
Ger, whose gun meanwhile had
jammed.
Finally, from behind telephone
pole, Pickett felled EShoo with a
third bullet, and handcuffed him.

COAST HUNTER
DIES IN CRASH
AT KANE SPRINGS
Companion Badly Injured
In Collision With Trail
er Wednesday Night.

Killed instantly at midnight
Wednesday when his body was
crushed in the seat OF the coupe in
which he was riding as a passenger,
the body Of Homer Dean Watson,
%, 1021h Washington boulevard,
Venice, is in the Hopes undertak-
ing parlors, Brawley, today, while
Eugene A. Lince, 9030 National
boulevard, Palms, Cal, is in an In
dio hospital expected to die from
internal injuries suffered when the
latter drove his car into q hay truck
and trailer on tine Los Angeles
highway, four miles north of
Truckhaven Thanksgiving eve.
Watson was Pacific Electric
roalroad conductor in Venice. He
and Lince were returning home
from duck hunting expedition to
Salton sea when the fatal accident
happened. WatSon's father was in
BraWley yesterday to make ar
rangements for funeral services.
The body probably will be sent back
to Venice.
Watson was killed and Lince in
jured when the latter drove his car
into the rear end of a northbound
truck and trailer, driven by L. H.
Leinsinsen Of Compton, with Andy
Crish of Los Angeles as swamper
Although the rear end of the
trailer was demolished, the truck
driver and his swamper escaped in
jury.
Cause Unknown
Sheriff George l.. Campbell and
state traffic officers could discover
no cause for the accident. From
the condition Of the coupe it was
evident Lince was speeding when
his car struck the rear end of the
trailer, officers declared.
The car struck the trailer in the
center, driving the radiator and
dash board back against the driver
and passenger. The wheel gave
Lince some protection, probably
saving his life. Watson was killed
instantly as the radiator forced
the dash board pack against his
body.
The coupe struck with such force
it went partially under the trailer
before being stopped.
Coroner Bert Underwood probably
will hold an inquest this afternoon
or tomorrow, depending on reports
from Indio on the condition o1
Lince. When he was taken to 6
hospital there a physician informed
Sheriff Campbell his chances fol
life are few.
Financial difficulties and "tireo
of living complex were said to be
the cause of William Zillem, Co.
year-old Bard rancher, taking his
life in q field near his home yester-
day afternoon.
G. H. Humphreys and Robert Gun
ningham watched Zillem as he
crossed the alfalfa field and saw
him suddenly draw a As revolver
and shoot himself in the left breast
The rancher was we'll to do but
lately had expressed himself as be-
ing discouraged and tired of living
Bert Underwood, county coroner
conducted an investigation into the
death.
Zillem'S survivors are his widow
Of Bard, and a daughter, of Los
| Angeles.

Jury Returns Not Guilty
Verdict In Case Of Rich
Theater Man.
ENDS BITTER FIGHT
Spokesman Says Story Of
Pringle Girl Consider
ed Untrue.

LOS ANGELES, Nov o. W.P) =
IN a superior courtroom packed
with excitement and emotion, Alex
ander Pantages veteran multi-mil-
lionaire Snowman, was acquitted on
a charge of attacking Eunice Prin-
gle, a 17-year-old dancer
It was the second trial for Pan
tages. At the first trial, more than
two years ago, he was convicted and
sentenced to a term Of one to so
years in San quentin prison. The
state supreme court granted him a
new trial.
Pantages and his wife, Mrs. Lola
Pantages, were overcome. AS many
spectators shouted and threw hats
into the air, Mrs. Pantages tainted
in the arms Of members Of her fam
lily.
The theater magnate at first
smiled happily and announced his
plans for a new chain of motion
picture and vaudeville houses. Then
he seemed to realize that his long
ordeal was over. Tears flowed down
his cheeks as he buried his head in
his hands.
The verdict was returned att 1888
a. m by jury of eight men and
four women. The jurors started
their deliberation at p. m. last
Tuesday.
William John Williams, foreman
OF the jury, asked if departure
from court routine would be per-
| mitted by the judge.
Discredit Girl
I'VE have decided that it would
be proper for one Of us to address
the COURT he said after the ver-
| dict had been given. With your
honor's PERMISSION, Mr., Newell J.
| Morehouse will do So"
"It was a process of elimination.
! NIorehouse declared. 1--WE just Kept
i eliminating witnesses we believed
had not told the truth, until we fin
] ally got to the testimony we felt
was acceptable"
The entire jury disbelieved Miss
Pringle's story, Morehouse said, but
every member was in sympathy with
the girl and felt she was the VIC
+! tim Of circumstance.
| IF that Russian hadn't been
back of it ALL" Morehouse declared,
emphatically, sit might have been
! different"
| The "Russian" referred to by Jur-
| SC Nichn1oc T0,tr,onu
| manager of Miss Pringle, and the
author of her act, THE Prince of
| Hollywood"
The defense at the second trial
attempted to prove that Miss Prin-
| gle had been indiscreet in her asso-
Citations with Dunaev.
At the first trial of Pantages, the
trial judge refused to allow the de-
fense to attack the girls past rec
| ord and this point was stressed by
| the supreme court when PantageS
won his second trial
Miss Pringle was at her home in
! Garden Grove, a suburb, when she
was informed of the jury's de-
cision.
THE verdict shows quite clearly
i the value the state Of California
| places on its girls" she said. The
verdict shows me that person who
gives the best years of her life fight
ing for justice is lost 1t convinces
me that the state will not protect
its women"
The dancer said she planned to
| proceed with a s1,000,000 damage
suit she has on file against Pam
tages.
Scores of friends had called to
! protest against the outrageous ver-
| dict she said.
Miss Pringle also denied she
| planned TO marry Alfred Ault, a
Santa Ana, Cal, newspaperman.
I'VE are not even engaged" she
said

PATENTED ROASTING
PROCESS CONTROLS
FLAVOR OF COFFEE
No Other Roasting Process
Can Develop Such Uniform
Goodness

Coffee drinking has become q joy
forever to the millions who daily
fill their cups with Hills Bros.
Coffee. Of all coffees sold there are
none that can duplicate its delicious,
deep-havored goodness.
This matchless flavor is due to
the accuracy of every process from
the blending to the packing of the
fragrant coffee.
OF special Importance is the con-
troll of the roasting process. Instead
of roasting coffee in bulk--the or
dinary way-only a few pounds at
a time pass through the roasters in
q continuous stream. The flow of
coffee, speed of operation and the
heat are accurately controlled.
Every berry is roasted evenly by
this process-Controlled Roasting
invented and patented by Hills
Bros. Naturally, the resulting flavor
is uniformly delicious, something
that is rarely the case in bulk
roasted coffee.
As fast as Hills Bros. Coffee is
roasted and ground, it is packed in
vacuum. By this process, air, which
destroys the flavor of coffee, is taken
from the can and kept out. Ordi-
nary cans, even if air-tight, do not
keep coffee fresh. Ask for Hills
Bros. Coffee by name and look for
the Arab-the trademark the
can. Sold by grocers everywhere.
