Wood to recover an automobile attached through court litigation, or $1000 and $25 for each day that he has been deprived of the use of the machine.

Pilot Lomas, who guided the airplane which circled over town during the parade Monday, made a poor landing at the Gardens at noon, and his machine was put out of commission. The field in which he was to land was a narrow one, and an air current drifted him off the course. In landing one wing struck an eucalyptus tree, and the machine had to be laid up for repairs. Orange county authorities are on the lookout for a Ford coupe belonging to Elmer E. Lindsay, 109 North Parton street, Santa Ana, which was stolen late Saturday. The car is a 1921 model and bears license number 464-860. Officers also were seeking trace of a machine stolen in Bakersfield. According to Sheriff D. B. Newell, of Kern county, the car can be easily identified by its purple color and a freak skull and cross-bones painted on the radiator. The license number is 410,000.

The Otto Hammel music store filed suit in the superior court against E. J. Dugas and Bert Myre, doing business under the firm name of Dugas & Myre, to collect $577.97, alleged to be due on an electric player piano valued by the plaintiff company at $950. According to the complaint, the defendant company purchased the piano December 17, 1920, and paid $250 down. It was stipulated in the contract of purchase that the remainder was to be paid in monthly installments of $50. The plaintiffs allege that only three of the $50 payments were made and that there still is a balance due of $577.97 with interest at 8 per cent.

Mrs. Mary Culver and Miss Frieda Kayser returned to their Los Angeles homes following a Labor Day holiday spent in the Fullerton hospital as the result of an accident occurring Saturday while they were in route to Escordida to spend the week-end. The two were making the trip by yachtmobile with Mrs. Culver at the wheel when a dragon-fly buzzing into the front seat so startled the driver that she lost control of the car and ran into a telephone pole. Both women were badly bruised and cut from the flying glass of the windshield and were removed to the hospital for treatment. While the Brea canyon road is closed, the most logical route to Pomona is by way of Caribou canyon, the office of the Automobile Club of Southern California said. Turnbull canyon through Whittler also is good, but the Caribou canyon route is the nearest, says the auto club. Machinery and material are on the ground for the paving of Pomona road through Brea canyon and it is reported that the work will be rushed to completion. It is proposed to pave from the north side of the canyon to the top of the hill at once in order that the highway may be re-opened to traffic at an early date. Marian E. Farrand, twenty-eight years of age, daughter of William Farrand, of Brea, died at her home there Thursday night, following a lingering illness. The family were residents of Fullerton up to about two years ago, making their home in East Commonwealth avenue, and the young laady had many friends and acquaintances in this section who will be palmed to hear of her passing. The funeral services were held at the McAulay parlors Saturday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock.

Seventy-five dollars for attorney's fees also is sought. The district attorney Tuesday announced that a charge of petty larceny brought against C. T. Chambers and W. C. Dowdy, employees of the Chapman ranch near Fullerton, had been dismissed. The two men were arrested on August 25 by Officer Joe Ryan. According to Ryan, they appeared to be in the act of removing an extra tire from the rear of a machine belonging to A. G. Finley. Chambers and Dowdy declare that they thought they recognized the car as one belonging to a mutual friend and were merely look at the rear end of the machine for a certain mark of identification when arrested. Ryan said that one of the men had a monkey wrench in his hands. A. G. McKey took advantage of the two day-holiday and drove up to Bakersfield with his family, starting Saturday night. Mack says he saw evidences of numerous smash-ups along the road, some of them serious. On the top of the ridge near Sandburg, a car in making a curve, jumped the road and fell down a precipice, all the occupants, three men and a woman, being killed. Near Chandler motorcycle officer was run over by Ford, the officer killed and the motorcycle reduced to junk. McKey was an eye witness of this accident. At another point a stage loaded with passengers suffered a broken front wheel, but fortunately fell over against the back wall. No one was dangerously hurt. Reckless driving on the crooked mountain paths is responsible for most of the accidents.

Although all the players, the officials and the friends of Anaheim's unbeatable Elks baseball team were confident of victory in the contest with Pasa dena last Sunday, they did not anticipate such a lop-sided score. The Anaheim team is champion of the southern section of the southern league, and Pasadena won the championship of the northern section. The winner in a three-game contest between these two teams will go to Santa Cruz to play the winners in the northern league for the state championship. Pasadena was defeated Sunday at Brookside park by a score of 8 to 1, three thousand Crown City fans witnessing the defeat. Hughes, in the box for Anaheim, pitched a splendid game, striking out sixteen men. Five hits were made off him, while the Anaheim sluggers chalked up sixteen hits. Next Sunday the second game will be played on the Fullerton diamond. The body of Ernest L. Kellogg, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Kellogg, was in the shipment of 6000 bodies of soldier dead arriving at Hoboken recently, according to a telegram received by the father at Santa Ana.

Burial Monday in the family plot in the cemetery at Santa Paula, in which town the family made their home at one time. "Live Wires" is the name of the principal show at the Grand tonight. Johnnie Walker, who is co-starring with Edna Murphy in "Live Wires," won his starring position because of his fine work in the big Fox production "Over the Hill." Edna also had a part in "Over the Hill," but it was a big one. She played lead for George Walsh in the Fox picture, "Dynamite Allen." "Live Wires" is a lively picture. It is a small town story of a boy and a girl, sweethearts, and has lively adventures as well as delightful romance. Also comedy and Ford Weekly. Drilling through an intermittent formation of shell and shale, the Westminster test well is making hole at 4200 feet. Officials of the company are still hopeful of a well. This hope is bolstered up by the ever-increasing gas showing that first made its appearance at 3950 and has continued to the present depth. Every time a layer of the shell is pierced the gas makes a big showing. Mechanical difficulties prevented the Standard from making any new hole at Garden Grove during the past week. Drilling is now at 3239 and no change for any encouragement has been reported as yet. It is the prediction that no oil will be found short of 4200 feet here. William Renfro, formerly member of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police, and an ex-service man, who has been sponding some months in southern California because it is one section of the world he had not visited since he was a youngster, visited several days with his friend, W. J. Wortman, and together they left Tuesday for Oregon, where they will take a look at the government timber lands. Renfro's present home is in Alberta, 250 miles north of Edmonton, in the Slave lake region, where we own a large scope of burned land. He is a Scot, a member of the clan Renfro, and during the world war fought with the 77th Highlanders. He wore kiltles and his regiment was in the midst of the desperate struggle around Ypres. He was one of the "ladies from Hell" that caused the Hun so much anguish at that bloody place. At Cambria he was shot in the foot, but the wound was of little consequence. FORD PRICES REDUCED Prospective purchasers of Ford cars will read, with interest that the company has made another substantial reduction in the price of cars. You can now get a Ford touring car for $355 f.o.b. Detroit, and in all other makes the reduction is in proportion. The price of the Fordson tractor, however, remains unchanged. George Dunton, the Ford agent here, gives the new schedule of prices on the second page of this paper. What the world needs is an automobile that has horse sense. The body of Ernest L. Kellogg, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Kellogg, was in the shipment of 6000 bodies of soldier dead arriving at Hoboken recently, according to a telegram received by the father at Santa Ana. The parents directed internment at Arlington, a government cemetery, because of assurance that the grave will be taken care of perpetually. The parents have not been notified as to the date of burial. Corporal Ernest Kellogg was one of the heroes of the "Lost Battalion." losing his life during that memorable siege in the ArgonLe forest. He was killed October 3, 1918, according to records of the war department. The definite date and location of the point where Kellogg met death was not decided by the war department until six months after the engagement. Reports reached here that he had been killed, but the department did not confirm the report until after investigations covering a period of six months. Miss Bernice Bremer was the hostess to a number of her girl friends at a delightful party on Wednesday last at her home, 1011 East Broadway.

The parents directed to the sheriff's office that while she and her family were at Anaheim Monday her residence was burglarized. The following articles were reported missing: One silver watch, one gold lady's wrist watch, one double-barreled shotgun, one suit of clothes, one pair of cuff-links. The home of a Japanese at Stanton also was burglarized Monday. Ten dollars in currency, a 22-caliber rifle and an overcoat were reported stolen. R. W. McClellan also reported to the sheriff's office that his residence on the Ball road, near Stanton, was burglarized. Among the articles reported missing are a new khaki suit, a pair of pants, one pair of shoes, two $2.50 gold pieces and a small amount of silver coins. Orange county residents are interested in reported activities in Little Bear Valley, which will make it a mammoth year-round pleasure resort, rivaling anything of its kind in the world, according to its enthusiastic exponents. As result of the recent sale to a syndicate which announces plans totaling millions of dollars in cost, the resort has been renamed Arrowhead lake, as an apt description of its position in the mountains of San Bernardino county. Los Angeles capitalists interested intend to build a huge hotel, elaborate private lodges, hundreds of cottages, a new lake on the west fork of the Majave river, to raise Arrowhead lake so as to impound 62,000 acres feet of water, to irrigate 50,000 acres north of the mountains, and to erect an immense power plant. The Motor Car, Truck and Tractor Dealers' craft of the Orange County Automobile Trades' association is "pulling" some more "secret stuff," according to notices issued by Herbert MEXICANS HELD TO ANSWER A complaint filed in the justice court at Santa Ana charging Paul and Joe Montijo, 322 West Chestnut street, Anaheim, with assault with a deadly weapon with intent to commit murder, will be changed so as to charge the defendant with second degree murder in the event of the death of Sabina Gonzales, 25, Mexican deaf mute, whom they are alleged to have assaulted. Gonzales, who sustained a fracture of the skull in a fall from the sidewalk in front of an Anaheim pool room last Sunday afternoon is reported to be dying at the county hospital. Dr. H. E. Zalser says that Gonzales has no chance for recovery. The Montijo brothers were arraigned in the justice court and their preliminary hearing was set for September 13 at 10 o'clock. They are being held in the county jail in default of $1000 ball each. According to Under Sheriff E. E. French, Gonzales took a dislike to the Montijo brother and they resented his alleged hostile advances. One of the boys is alleged to have struck Gonzales on his head with the butt of a revolver and the other is said to have pushed him off the sidewalk. Both of the defendants were arraigned on the same complaint, which was sworn to by Under Sheriff French. The Montijo brothers took Gonzales to the county hospital. They made no effort to evade arrest. STIMULATION OF BUILDING Volume of building in the more important cities of California has increased prodigiously. All records are being broken, in some localities from month to month and from quarter to quarter. Notwithstanding all the building that is being of cottages, a new lake on the west fork of the Majave river, to raise Arrowhead lake so a₅ to impound 62,000 acre feet of water, to irrigate 50,000 acres north of the mountains, and to erect an immense power plant. The Motor Car, Truck and Tractor Dealers' craft of the Orange County Automobile Trades' association is "pulling" some more "secret stuff," according to notices issued by Herbert O. Davis, secretary, in regard to a meeting to be held Friday evening. The secretary refuses to take the members of the craft into his confidence and all he advises them to do is "to meet at Harry Riley's garage, Anaheim, at 6:30 p.m., receive instructions and leave promptly at 6:45 p.m. for the rendezvous, far from the maddening crowd." Davis gives assurance that a fine dinner and an evening of good entertainment will be provided for the members who attend. The secrecy being maintained is arousing no little interest in the approaching meeting, and, according to Davis, indications point to one of the best attended meetings of the craft in some months. SPIRITUALIST MEETING Mrs. Hattle Lang, of Los Angeles, will be the speaker and will give messages from flowers at 204 North Los Angeles street, September 8 at 7:30 p.m. Everyone welcome. Come and bring your friends. WANTED TO RENT—A small stand for conducting a card writing business. Must be separated from other business. Location to draw attention to the public. In a doorway of some vacant building will do if no other place is open for rent. State price. Write A. T. Soderstrom, Los Angeles, Calif. STIMULATION OF BUILDING Volume of building in the more important cities of California has increased prodigiously. All records are being broken, in some localities from month to month and from quarter to quarter. Yet with all the building that is being done here, the dearth in housing hardly is offset. There yet is need of more houses. Shortage of housing has been and is very acute in eastern cities. In Pittsburgh the situation became so desperate that the Chamber of Commerce, through its housing corporation, has undertaken to have constructed 2000 new dwellings in the Pittsburgh district within the next year. Prominent features of the plan are: Cheap money, construction at about one-half the usual cost, and expert supervision without charge. The movement is wholly for civic betterment, and without profit to the building corporation. The plan is evoking the active co-operation of all classes, including banking and other big interests in the community. This problem of housing will not down. It must be met with progressive energy and with consummate wisdom and exemplary public spirit or it will plague the country for an indefinite period and will have serious detrimental effect upon social conditions. FARM WANTED—Wanted to hear from owner of a farm or good land for sale reasonable. L. Jones, Box 551, Olney, Ill. The men who make a great deal or money never seem to say much about it and seldom how they did it.
