New York Letter by Lucy Jeanne Price NEW YORK, Jan. 15.-There are means of overcoming all difficulties, Mrs. Martin Johnson, who recently returned to New York after thirteen years spent in Borneo and the South Sea islands, has proven this. The shortage of housemaids has seemed one thing which neither wealth nor wit could circumvent. But Mrs. Johnson isn't worrying about the problem at all. She is coaching Bessie to do the housework. Bessie is an orang-outang about six feet tall. "I have trained her to mop the floor," says Mrs. Johnzon. "Now I'm going to teach her to wash dishes. A well-trained orang-outang makes an excellent servant. Bessie is so adaptable that we are teaching her to eat at the table. She uses her napkin daintily and her fork like a perfect lady." When "Irene" started the other night on its sixtieth week at the Vanderbilt theatre, it beat all memorable runs for musical comedy in this country at any one theatre. Forty-eight weeks of "Florodora," twenty years ago at the Casino and the 22 weeks of "The Merry Widow" at the New Amsterdam, had held the record to date. It is interesting to note, in this connection, that the old extravaganzas, the predecessors of the musical concludes of today, were thought to be doing something to be mighty proud of if they stayed out 24 weeks in a theatre. Everybody is impressed with sweeping statements if they are only specific in their language. In 145th-st., there is a laundryman, or a laundry advertising man, who realizes this. For the sign in the window says eloquently: "Everything relaundried from a lace handkerchief to a circus tent." There is sentiment in everything. Footprints of babies is the latest suggested scheme here in New York to prevent the tragic mix-ups that occur once in a white hospital. Various plans have been tried out as "tool-proof," but the tool power goes deep in human nature and nothing ever worked completely. It is pointed out that footprints are an exclusively individual as are finger prints and that not only would the practice keep babies straightened out before they develop much in the way of looks of their own, but that it would be indisputable proof of identity in kidnapping cases. Rose Macaulay's satirical attack on sentimentality, for which she coined the word, "Potterism," has been dramatized and is said to be among the spring productions of William Harris. It is expected that the title will be changed to "The Sentimentalists," because "Potterism" would still need too much explanation for a practical play. In the Times building is a notary who believes he has experienced the most profound income tax complaint of anybody in New York. A grieved man, showing almost ostentatiously the effects of home brew or its illicit cousin, came into his office the other day. The notary recognized him as a man whose tax report he had helped to make out. "I got a complaint," said the weary one. "A complaint against the government." You gotta swear to it for me. I just heard it. Heard this here pro-bishion's costing a billion dollars or something like that a year to enforce. Now then. Some of the money you made me pay went into that billion. And they never yet enforced it on me. Get nothing at all for my money. Want to complain." MYSTERY MAN TRIES TO "SQUARE" CHECK F. W. Bushnell, alleged check artist and forger, was arranged yesterday before Justice John B, Cox on a complaint filed by the City Cleaning and Dye Works, of Santa Ana. Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Hendricks, of Tole-do, Ohio Mrs. West has not seen her parents for nine years, and this visit means much to her. They plan to motor to Long Beach Sunday for a family outing. Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Kempton, of Cincinnati, Ohio, are guests in the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Kennedy, 123 N. Helena-st. Mr. and Mrs. Kempton were guests here last winter and were so well pleased with Anaheim that they decided to return. They are looking for a favorable location and if they find it will make this city their future home. J. F. Lehr, 313 Elm-st, was much interested in the interview published in The Plain Dealer the other day with J. L. Sheperd, concerning the conditions of Mexico, from where he has just returned. Lehr owns several thousand acres in Sonora and will seek an interview with Sheperd, whom he thinks he met in the mining business some years ago. Lehr spent 33 years in Mexico. ASSN. OFFERS BLACK WALNUTS FOR STOCK Falling in line with the "Better Seed" Movement which is sweeping over the country, the California Walnut Growers' Assn. is making an effort this year to get high grade black walnut seed into the hands of nurserymen and ranchers in order to lay the foundation for better trees upon which to build the future of an already great industry. It is a well known scientific fact that a highly improved breed of stock or variety of trees is somewhat tender, and it has been learned that the best way to offset this tendency is to cross the animal or tree with rugged stock. That is why some of the best orange trees result from grafting improved varieties on what it termed "sour stock." From a long series of experiments it has been learned that California walnuts of the soft shell variety do not produce sturdy root stock and experimenters have ascertained that the finest walnut trees in the world are developed by budding the improved varieties of walnuts onto wild or black walnut root stock. To breed the best type of walnut tree the association thinks it wise for nurserymen and ranchers to obtain the genuine No. Cal., wild black walnut as a foundation. Last year a quantity of wild walnuts were secured by the association for distribution among the growers, and they were gobbled up with such suddenness that mndy ranchers did not even get the proverbial "look in" on the campaign for better root stock. This year the association has gone into the Santa Clara Valley, where the finest type of black walnut grows, and has secured a limited quantity of carefully selected wild walnuts, for sale to the associated growers at cost. This means a price of 12c a pound f.o.b. Los Angeles. Everybody is impressed with sweep statements if they are only specific in their language. In 1451h-st, there is a laundryman, or a laundry advertising man, who realizes this. For the sign in the window says eloquently: "Everything relaundled from a lace handkerchief to a circus tent." There is sentiment in everything. The story of New York bandits, these last few weeks is so often an appealing one that it seems hard to think a judge could sentence them. One night last week two of these hard-working and ambitious young fellows were caught, somehow, right in the act of purloining property through an open window. The detectives questioned them. And alongside of "for the wife and kiddies" for real heart appeal should go their reply. "We wanted money to start the New Year right," they said. What jury could refuse to weep and forgive at that? Rubles!: The town is threatening to go mad about them. Where the furor sprang from, not even the jewels seem to know. But suddenly they have become so much the vogue that diamonds and other precious stones are being removed from handsome settings and rubles put in their places in the effort to keep up with the demand. Along with the movies, will the dictionary now be condemned for the eyes of youth? There is a good argument in favor of such action. For not on the film, nor at the melodrama, nor in forbidden "trashy" literature, did Herbert Bramm learn to make a bomb which exploded in his home in Brooklyn and killed his chum. No; it was from the dictionary that he got all directions. Back of the deed was nothing more deliberate than a love of "hearing a loud noise," and this fondness led him to his interest in bombs. With the correct dictionary instructions and a piece of lead pipe, he MYSTERY MAN TRIES TO "SQUARE" CHECK F. W. Bushnell, alleged check artist and forger, was arraigned yesterday before Justice John B. Cox on a complaint filed by the City Cleaning and Dye Works, of Santa Ana. The alleged check was made out for $10. Justice Cox asked Bushnell if this was the only check he had out. Bushnell replied that it was. A half hour later another complaint was filed against Bushnell, involving another alleged worthless check for $10 given a Santa Ana clothing concern. Bushnell was again brot in and was arraigned on the new charge. Both checks were given Nov. 11, and both were signed "F. W. Bushnell." the complaints set forth. A mysterious stranger who said he was a "pal" of Bushnell's appeared at the cleaning establishment, and said that he wanted to "square" the cluck. When the proprietor asked him his name, and offered to go to the sheriff's office, where the check was being held, the man objected and departed at once. Bushnell was returned to jail in lieu of ball, $1000 on each complaint. Elk Park —The most beautiful site in Orange County positively assured for Anaheim.

COMMISSION URGES GAS SAVING In an endeavor to make the present supply of natural gas meet the constantly growing demand for gas fuel, Harry L. Masses, gas supervisor of the state railroad commission, has appealed to the consumers of So. Cal., to conserve in their use of gas for heating and other domestic uses. The present shortage, according to Masser, is due to the remarkable growth of this section of the state. For instance, said Masser, the city of Los Angeles used on one day this week 52,000,000 cubic feet of gas as compared with 37,000,000 cubic feet, the largest amount previously used in any one day. "These conditions are applicable to all cities within a radius of 35 miles of Los Angeles" according to Masser. "This growing section is using three times the volume of gas now consumed in San Francisco and in fact is rapidly approaching New York City in its demand for gas fuel." "It is respectfully requested that during the morning and evening hours on colder days, that persons conserve in the use of gas and discontinue as much as possible such appliances as: large heaters, furnaces and automatic water heaters. These appliances can be burned low and run for a longer period with little inconvenience. If these precautions are not taken difficulty may be experienced in obtaining gas for cooking purposes."
