CAR ROBBER HIDING HERE
Ex-Convict Spent Some Time in Anaheim After Bold Robbery
W. J. Anson, a former motorman of the Los Angeles railway company, is in the Los Angeles city prison charged with highway robbery, after having been positively identified as the man who on the night of November 11 held up car No. 606 of the North Broadway line at the Indian Village and robbed J. R. Langston, the conductor, of $23.80. Anson, who is an ex-convict, was recognized as an employee of the company by Langston, and the latter informed Detectives Hosick and Zeigler of his suspicions as to the identity of the robber.
Anson was arrested and booked at the central police station on a charge of carrying concealed weapons. After the man was arrested the detectives started an investigation. Anson's room at the Howell hotel, at Eagle Rock avenue and Adele street, was searched but nothing of an incriminating nature was found. Anson denied that he had ever owned a light suit, such as the robber was said to have worn, but the officers learned that the suspect had recently visited the ranch of his brother-in-law at Anaheim. On searching the ranch the suit worn by the accused man was found.
When confronted by this evidence Anson broke down and confessed. Records of the company show that the accused man made two trips to the Indian Village on the afternoon before the holdup, both times riding on his badge. There is, however, nothing to show that he rode to the spot on the night of the crime, and he admitted that when he went out to hold up the car he paid his fare, after hav-

FORFEIT GAME TO YORBA-LINDA
The Placentia baseball team which was to have played the Yorba-Linda team last Sunday afternoon failed to appear at time agreed upon and the Yorba Lindas took the game by default, 9 to 0. These two teams have clashed twice this season and the Yorba Lindas hold the long end of 6-2 and 3-2 scores for the consecutive games. J. Michaell, captain of Placentia team, offered to play Yorba-Linda for a third time and Captain Rico of the Yorba-Lindas accepted the challenge, although two games had been won from Placentia as stated. He accepted the challenge, but later Rico received a phone saying the challenging team could not get together and therefore could not play. The Yorba-Lindas team expresses regret thereat, and hopes that it shall not be obliged to undergo another disappointment.
Any team desiring a game with the Yorba-Lindas can be accommodated by communicating with B. Rico, R.D. 3, Anaheim., or phone red 1981, Fullerton. The line-up: Lempke, c.; Yorba, 1stb.; Rico-M.

MEN AND WOMEN AS LODGERS
"Men," said the pretty Second-St. widow who owns a big rooming-house, "are pretty much on the square as far as I find them, and I don't mean to say by that that women are not. Tell the truth, though, I would rather have five men in my house than one woman. Here is the reason: The other day I rented an apartment to a girl. She was a pretty, dainty creature who told me that she had a place at a glove counter in a big store up-town. I have no reason to think she has not.
"The first night that she came home she had about three handkerchiefs that she wanted to wash out. I got the hot water for her. Next evening she came in with a request that she be allowed the use of my range and kitchen to heat some irons and smooth out a dress skirt that had been damaged by rain. Next evening she wanted to borrow my can of gasoline to clean a pair of gloves. Last night it was necessary to mend a pair of hose. I'm wondering what is going to happen to that girl next."
"Just to show you the difference," continued the little widow, "a man came here a week ago and applied for a room. I hadn't anything attractive, but showed him the best in the house.
"It's good enough for me," he declared. 'All I want is a bed to sleep in and some water and a towel in the morning to wash my face.' He has been in the house for a week, and I have never seen him since except when he came to pay the week's rent. Of course, this is all pretty hard to say against women, but it's a fact, and every rooming house owner in Louisville knows it, that women are hard to take care of."

was a lallapaloosa. Judging by his wife's face, Pedro must have been going some. Her nose was broken, she had a beautiful black eye and numerous abrasions upon her face showed that Pedro is the real thing in wife-beating. The judge thought Pedro was justly entitled to a reward of six months in jail. Constable Kellenberger took him over to the county bastile. Pedro explained he was drunk and did not know what he was doing.
