Mexicans told Sheriff Jackson and Deputy Maxwell, who were called about 1 o'clock Monday morning, that Puerto Rico had now stabbed eight men. A year ago at Wintersburg he stabbed a man named Fuerga, who would not prosecute him. Huerto was gone for awhile. He returned Friday and evidently started a blind pig business in a house across from the Wintersburg poolroom. Half a sack of beer was the stock in trade. According to indefinite statements by one of the wounded men, the four men drank until about midnight when Gonzales, who was killed, was accused of stealing $12. That started the row. Gonzales was cut across the abdomen, and died in three hours. Huerto got a bicycle and rode west. PROMINENT CITIZEN IS CALLED BY DEATH Herman Stock Succumbs to an Attack Of Apoplexy Although ill for a number of weeks, death came unexpectedly to Herman Stock, one of Anaheim's best known business men, Thursday night. Six weeks ago he was stricken with paralysis, but had so far recovered from the stroke that he was able to get about again. On Sunday, August 19, he was taken to the beach by his brother, Godfrey Stock, where he remained until Thursday evening. He was visited on that day by his brother-in-law, Albert Vail, who reports that he found him unusually well and cheerful, part of the day being spent playing on the sands with the children. Mr. Vail brought him home, arriving here at 10 o'clock. Shortly after any trouble. We have a wage base of $2.25 boxes. For each added forty we pay 2½ cents plan we have increased of our help from 10 with pickers making per day. "Picking by the booth closer supervision or see that they do no fruit in their efforts," wage. Our men, however conscientious and thus has been entirely safe are eliminated under While the men are no wages and we are going out of them, the cost but little more than paid $2 per day for Palmer estimates about 1200 cars of Va county yet to be hailed price received she has been about $3.75 last year. In the opinion of C. Jerome, there will of help in the bean "Cutting of limbs the dry lands has completed," said Jerome in the lowlands mence. Threshing quin started Saturday at the John Cook panchers started working. "It requires more time than it does threshing. Complete will release men for other work." Lab fields are receiving cents per day more seasons." STERILIZATION OVER C. F. Macintyre, A.M. ...English J. S. Malcom, A.M...Soc.Scl., Athletics L. P.

Mr. Campbell who takes the chemistry department, is a graduate of Pomona college, but he has spent two years studying and teaching at Harvard university. Registration for the junior college will begin Tuesday, September 4, at 9 o'clock. The hours will be from 9 to 12 and from 2 to 5. Pupils for the first year of high school will be registered Wednesday, for the second year Thursday, for the third year Friday and for the fourth year Saturday. The hours will be the same as those for the junior college, except that on Saturday night the roll will also be open from 7 to 9. The first half year closes on Friday, December 14 for the holiday recess, and class work will be resumed on Wednesday, January 2. The course of study consists of art, commercial work, domestic science, English, German, history, Latin, manual arts, mathematics, music, science and Spanish.

LABOR IS PLENTIFUL IN FIELDS AND ORCHARDS No Complaint of Lack of Pickers and Field Workers With the demand for labor at its high point in Orange county for the season, the situation is easy and there is no anticipated scarcity of help. Bean cutting and threshing is in progress, harvesting of the big beet crop is under full steam and gathering of the Valencia orange crop is demanding the help of a large number of men. Hundreds of men are employed in these three activities and all are receiving wages in advance of the scale that has prevailed in former seasons. So far as can be ascertained the workmen are satisfied with working conditions and the wage scale, the increase making it possible for them to look the increased cost of living squarely in the face and give it the ha, ha! While September usually marks mid season for the Valencias, the crop is by no means half gathered. Harvesting started a month later than usual and shipments have been slower because of a slow market, brought about by the large amount of fresh fruits that have been on the market. Quality is not what it has been in past seasons, and prices have been less. "The help situation in the Valencia field is all right at this time," said L. D. Palmer, manager of the Orange Fruit Exchange at Orange. "A shortage may develop a little later as the result of calls for labor in the beet, bean and walnut fields, but I do not anticipate any serious trouble. We were a little short of help last season, but with the sliding wage scale we have put in force for this season, I believe we will get by with- MEXICAN KILLED Ruperto Huerto, reputed Mexican bad hombre, stabbed three Mexicans in a blind pig row at Wintersburg Sunday.

We have established a wage base of $2.25 per day of forty boxes. For each additional box above forty we pay 2½ cents, and under this plan we have increased the efficiency of our help from 10 to 15 per cent, with pickers making from $3 to $3.50 per day. "Picking by the box requires a little closer supervision of the pickers to see that they do not pick inferior fruit in their efforts to make a big wage. Our men, however, have been conscientious and their grade of work has been entirely satisfactory. Drones are eliminated under the sliding scale. While the men are making better wages and we are getting more work out of them, the cost for harvesting is but little more than it was when we paid $2 per day for straight work." Palmer estimates that there are about 1200 cars of Valencias in Orange county yet to be harvested. The average price received so far this season has been about $3.25, against about $3.75 last year. In the opinion of County Auditor W. C. Jerome, there will be no shortage of help in the bean fields. "Cutting of limas and blackeyes on the dry lands has practically been completed," said Jerome. "Lima cutting in the lowlands is about to commence. Threshing on the San Joaquin started Saturday with operation at the John Cook place, and other ranchers started work Monday morning. "It requires more men to do the cutting than it does to operate the threshing. Completion of the cutting will release men for the threshers and for other work. Laborers in the bean fields are receiving an average of 25 cents per day more than in former seasons." STERILIZATION OF MEAT IN JARS MORE LIGHT ON CHAPMAN MURDER Four Men Arrested at Venice on Suspicion of Being Implicated An echo of the Mojave Desert murder mystery was brought to light and a new element added to the unsolved Chapman puzzle when Hanford R. Scott and O. E. Emerson, together with two other men, were arrested in Venice and taken to Los Angeles to await the arrival of the San Bernardino officers, upon whose telegraphic instructions the men were taken into custody. Scott and Emerson were wanted in San Bernardino the local authorities declare, in connection with the murder of Claud F. Chapman, a Chino stage owner, formerly of Anahaim, whose body was found on the desert a few miles outside of Klondike, San Bernardino county, about five weeks ago. A warrant for the arrest of Elmer C. Scott, believed by the officers to have been with Chapman at the time of the murder, was issued. Hanford Scott, the officers say, is the brother of Elmer Scott, and Emerson is a friend of the former. According to Deputy Sheriff Dan Murdock of Ludlow, Emerson was working there after the tragedy and sent a telegram to Hanford Scott at Williams, Ariz., reading as follows: "Everything O. K. Come on." Subsequently, according to Murdock, Scott was overheard to say that he did not know where his brother was, but that he would help him get away if he could. In the automobile with Scott and Emerson at the time of their arrest were J. R. Tower and George Chappel. They declare they have no connection with the case, being guests of the two men for a trip to the beach. The four were taken into custody on STERILIZATION OF MEAT IN JARS Owing to the composition and texture of meat its sterilization is very difficult and, if not properly done, the consumption of the product may cause illness or death by ptomaine or botulinus poisoning. Great care therefore must be taken in preserving meat to render it safe to use. The most satisfactory method is to heat it for 40 to 60 minutes in a pressure cooker at 15 pounds pressure (249-deg. F.). It may also be safely sterilized by heating to the boiling point of water (212-deg.) three times at intervals of 24 hours. Each heating should continue for at least one hour. Chicken and rabbit—Boil in slightly salted water until the meat is tender. Strip the meat from the bones and pack into jars with a highly seasoned tomato or other sauce. The addition of the sauce not only flavors the meat, but also facilitates the penetration of the heat. Several ripe olives added to each jar will improve the flavor. Place the filled jars in a washboiler sterilizer with their covers on loosely. Heat the water to boiling for one hour. Then seal the jars by applying the clamps or screwing down the tops. On the following day boil again for one hour without loosening the tops. Repeat this heating the third day and invert the jars while cooling. The time of heating should be counted after the water is boiling vigorously. If solder top cans and a pressure cooker are used, proceed as follows: After the cans have been filled with the hot meat and sauce and the lids have been soldered on, place the cans in boiling water for ten minutes with the vent holes open. The vent hole is a small pin hole in the center of the lid. Seal this hole with a dry of soldier and sterilize the cans for 60 minutes in the pressure cooker at 15 pounds steam pressure. The steam pressure cooker is not so suitable for glass jars, as without special skill and experience considerable breakage may result from its use. Garden Grove goes on the map next Saturday as a town with a rural route, and by the change Santa Ana loses one of its seven routes. Through efficient efforts by the Santa Ana postmaster, Charles D. Overshiner, there will be no change in the carrying force through the suspension of the route at Santa Ana and its establishment at Garden Grove. W. J. Lindsay, who has been carrying Santa Ana No. 8 for many years, will be transferred to Garden Grove's first rural route, and will probably move to that place. Notice of the change has just been received by Overshiner. The transfer includes the entire route as it now stands, with the exception of that portion east of the Santa Ana river, which in future will be served by Santa Ana rural carrier No. 3. About 125 patrons will after September receive their mail through the Garden Grove office in stead of through the Santa Ana office. Postmaster Overshiner has long recognized that Garden Grove is entitled to a rural route, for those served by No. 2 are all in that vicinity, the carrier passing through the town going and coming. The new route will be designated as R. F. D. No. 1, Garden Grove. With the loss of Rural route No. 2, Santa Ana still has six rural routes, and their numbers will be 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7. No. 2 is dropped, but to save much confusion and endless work the present numbers of the routes will be retained. Efforts were made a year ago to transfer one of the Anaheim routes to Garden Grove, but the inspector who had charge of the matter, was not in favor of making the change. ARMY Y. M. C. A. Wherever the American soldier is sent he will find the welcoming Red Triangle of the Army Y. M. C. A. He will find genial, whole souled, red-blooded men like himself, ready to serve him. No matter what his creed he will be a welcome guest. The Army Y. M. C. A. is for the enlisted man and he will find under its shelter reading matter, paper and envelopes, pen and ink, that he may write home. It is all free to him. Wherever men are fighting in this war, whether it be in Europe, India or Mesopotamia, in Egypt or Palestine, the men of the Army Y. M. C. A. are supplying the needs of the soldiers. Everything O. R. Cone on. Subsequently, according to Murdock, Scott was overheard to say that he did not know where his brother was, but that he would help him get away if he could. In the automobile with Scott and Emerson at the time of their arrest were J. R. Tower and George Chappel. They declare they have no connection with the case, being guests of the two men for a trip to the beach. The four were taken into custody on Windward avenue by Lieut. Berkline and Officers Humphries and Pirott of the Venice police. The men were recognized by the Arizona number on the automobile they were driving, the number being forwarded to the Venice officers by the Los Angeles police. Deputy Sheriffs Moody and Cleveland took the prisoners to Los Angeles where they were held for the San Bernardino officers. According to Scott he and Emerson were on their way back to Williams, Ariz., from the Mojave Desert where the two spent three weeks investigating the case. Hanford R. Scott worked on the theory that his brother and the second man known to have left Kingman in an automobile, were the two who drove to near Klondike, and the unnamed man murdered Scott. Chapman, Hanford Scott believes, had nothing to do with the case, and must have met his fate as the result of a different case. It was to investigate his suspicions and to locate, if possible, his brother's body, that he took the trip to the scene of the crime, the prisoner stated when arrested. He discovered several pieces of jewelry and two partly burned suit cases, together with other evidence, which he turned over to the San Bernardino authorities before coming to Los Angeles, Hanford Scott stated. He claims to own a ranch near Williams, and have absolutely no connection with the case other than his interest in the fate that befell his brother. Intrigue, jealousy, love and a freak of fate that caused the alleged murder car to collide with another auto 20 miles from the scene of the crime—these were some of the elements that formed and yet partly clarified the mystery surrounding the murder. When the desert gave up the body of the unknown man the San Bernardino authorities were faced with one of the most mysterious murders AFTER POISONOUS PLANTS In line with measures taken to conserve the meat supply by the government, the forest service is eradicating plants poisonous to stock on the national forests in which large numbers of cattle and sheep are grazing this summer. Areas known to contain poisonous plants are gone over carefully by crews of two and three men, and the dangerous plants, chiefly tall larkspur, grubbed out. This work is done in cooperation with the owners of the stock and the stockmen's association. The danger to stock from poisonous plants is said to be more than normal this season owing to the heavy stocking of the forests and the consequent scanty feed, and close grazing. The national forests in California are now supporting 204,935 head of cattle and horses, and 465,752 head of sheep and goats, an increase over last year of approximately 12,000 head of cattle, blooded men like himself, ready to serve him. No matter what his creed he will be a welcome guest. The Army Y. M. C. A. is for the enlisted man and he will find under its shelter reading matter, paper and envelopes, pen and ink, that he may write home. It is all free to him. Wherever men are fighting in this war, whether it be in Europe, India or Mesopotamia, in Egypt or Palestine, the men of the Army Y. M. C. A. are supplying the needs of the soldiers. They are in huts on every firing line. They are in training camps, in the underground cities close to the roar of the great guns. They are taking the same desperate chance that the soldiers are taking. There is no service too great for the Army Y. M. C. A. to render the men who are sacrificing their lives for world democracy. There is no danger too great for these intrepid men to risk in order to carry the Army association work to places where it is needed the most. The same service which brave men are giving in the very jaws of death is being rendered right now in this country. When the soldier boys of the new national army cross the ocean and go into the front line trenches they will be accompanied by Army Association men. The work these earnest fellows are doing is the greatest influence for good that the world has seen for many, many years. The Army Y. M. C. A. strives to keep the boys clean and healthy, to keep them physically, mentally and morally fit, to make them happy, to supply amusement, recreation, entertainment, to give them some of the little home comforts that they miss so keenly. It is a marvelous work. It is the one influence that is keeping hundreds and thousands of men in the army clean and contented. Intrigue, jealousy, love and a freak of fate that caused the alleged murder car to collide with another auto 20 miles from the scene of the crime—these were some of the elements that formed and yet partly clarified the mystery surrounding the murder. When the desert gave up the body of the unknown man the San Bernardino authorities were faced with one of the most mysterious murder cases on record there. The identification of the body as that of Chapman was the first clew. The body was identified after several days' efforts by W. G. Osborn of Anaheim, father-in-law of the murdered man. Then the investigators learned Chapman and a man then known to them under the name of Elmer Scott left Kingman, Ariz., July 14, headed for San Bernardino. The two started on their trip across the desert in an automobile belonging to a Miss Ollie West of Chloride. On July 22 Chapman, who had been dead several days, was found 200 yards from the road, where his body was dragged and left in an old wash. The auto was found 20 miles away. It evidently collided with some other machine and was abandoned by its driver. Sheriff McMinn and Deputy Sheriff Murdock, who were conducting the investigation, then succeeded in locating Miss West. She came to the scene of the crime and was questioned by the officers. She bared her connection with the case and reiterated her belief that Scott was innocent of the crime. Miss West injected the further element of mystery by hysterically declaring Scott was the murdered man. After being questioned the young woman was allowed to return to her Arizona home, and shortly afterward MINIMUM WAGES FOR WOMEN On September 6 the order of the industrial welfare commission regulating minimum wages for women in California becomes effective. The order specifically refers to the "mercantile industry," and at once the question will be raised as to where the line of office work ends and that of the mercantile industry begins and also as to whether the mercantile industry includes manufacturing. After a hearing held in San Francisco, the commission issued the order, of which the following are the essential paragraphs. 1. No person, firm or corporation shall employ, or suffer or permit an experienced woman to be employed in the mercantile industry in California at a rate of wages less than $10.00 per week ($43.33 per month.) 2. The rate of learners may be less than the minimum rate prescribed for experienced workers provided: (a) That learners entering employment under 18 years of age be paid an initial wage of not less than $6.00 per week ($26.00 per month) for the first six months of employment; for the second six months not less than $6.50 per week ($28.17) per month; for the third six months not less than $7.00 per week ($30.33) per month); for the fourth six months not less than $7.50 per week ($32.50) per month) and for the fifth six months, or when 18 years of age, not less than $8.00 per week ($34.67) per month) (b) That learners entering employment 18 years of age and under 20 years of age be paid an initial weekly wage of not less than $8.00 per week ($34.67) per month) for the first six months of employment; not less than $8.50 per week ($36.83) per month) Be Prepared WITH THE NECESSARY BUILDINGS AND EQUIPMENT TO STORE OR DRY YOUR SURPLUS VEGETABLES AND FRUIT, SO YOU CAN USE THEM LATER ON OR RELEASE THEM WHEN THE MARKET IS RIGHT.

The total number of adult and minor learners in any establishment shall not exceed 25 per cent of the total number of women and minors employed. In computing the total number of women and minors, temporary and special workers shall not be included. 4. Where payment of wages is made upon a commission or bonus system, wages shall be computed weekly and the time wage plus the bonus or commission shall not be less than the minimum rate for the wage group in which the worker belongs: 5.

All part time workers, except waitresses, shall be paid not less than the minimum rate for an eight hour day. It is also provided that no employer may hire learners without having a license to do so from this commission, which means that if he does employ women at a wage less than $10 per week without the commission's consent first secured, he is liable to a minimum fine of $50. Cotton, as everybody should know by this time, is used in the manufacture of high explosives. It is an essential in the conduct of war. From the very beginning of hostilities, indeed, from a period far anterior to the beginning of hostilities, Germany has resorted to every method she could devise secretly to lay up and maintain a stock of cotton for the purpose of manufacturing ammunition. It will be an easy matter for the average, and even the casual, newspaper reader to recall the many expedients to which Germany resorted in the early months of the war, in order to obtain cargoes of cotton from the United States, directly or through the medium of some friendly neutral. The allied blockade has never been wholly successful in keeping American cotton out of the Central Empires, although it has been instrumental in greatly reducing the supply. Up to the time of the entrance of the United States into the war, cotton found its way to Germany and Austria through Spain, Denmark, Holland, Sweden, Norway and even through Italy, notwithstanding all the precautions. The United States was not then, as it has been since April 2, specifically concerned in keeping cotton away from the Central Powers, or from their allies. That was the business of Great Britain and France, especially of the former. Since April 2, however, the United States has been vitally concerned in keeping out of Germany and Austria material which might be worked into ammunition, eventually to be used against its own soldiers. It does not appear, however, from figures recently collected, that the United States has been successful in preventing cotton exporters within its own borders from extending valuable aid to the enemy in this respect. The exports of cotton from the United States to Italy have recently increased at such a rate as to have ex- All part time workers, except waitresses, shall be paid not less than the minimum rate for an eight hour day.

THE CROOKEDEST RIVER South America's "River of Doubt" has a rival in the Humboldt river in Nevada which comes forward with an entirely new claim to distinction. The Humboldt flows southwesterly through the central portion of Nevada. This river is declared to be, in point of size and length, the crookedest river in the world. It is so crooked that sportsmen bring strange tales of fish and game that become confused in trying to follow the river's course and act as though intoxicated. At one place between two points two and a half miles apart, the river's length is eight miles and by actual count its course is alternately north 25 times, east 18 times, south 30 times and west 41 times; also it may be stated that at 33 different points it is within 150 feet or less of itself, the current flowing in opposite directions by these points. This runaway river crosses the Southern Pacific tracks 28 times necessitating as many bridges costing in all $654,000. By way of showing how completely locoed it is, the Humboldt ends its course by running into the middle of the desert and corkscrewing its way out of sight in a huge sink. On account of its devious way this cerned in keeping out of Germany and Austria material which might be worked into ammunition, eventually to be used against its own soldiers. It does not appear, however, from figures recently collected, that the United States has been successful in preventing cotton exporters within its own borders from extending valuable aid to the enemy in this respect. The exports of cotton from the United States to Italy have recently increased at such a rate as to have excited keen curiosity, not to say suspicion. From 268,678,515 pounds, in 1914, the quantity taken by that country has grown to 402,500,000 in the first six months of 1917. Plainly, all the cotton exported to Italy has not been used in that country. Just as plainly, much of it has found its way to neutral countries. And there can be little doubt as to the final destination of a large part of the staple. It is estimated by the National Association of Cotton Manufacturers of the United States, in a communication laid before the council of national defense, that approximately 100,000,000 pounds of cotton more than the normal requirements have been exported to neutrals since the beginning of the war. As a result of a non support complaint brought by Mrs. Helen Heen of Anaheim against Ernest Pico of Los Angeles, Deputy District Attorney Menton has caused the defendant to legally marry Mrs. Heen's daughter, Helen. When the two firse decided to be man and wife several years ago, Pico had not secured his final decree of divorce from a former wife. There are now two children, and Mrs. Heen has been supporting them for some time. Pico has now secured his final divorce papers, and has agreed to provide for the children.
