PITZER FORMERLY LIVED NEAR HERE Pitzer, who is playing at the Anaheim high school auditorium, lived within four miles of this city about 26 years ago. There he helped to clear away cactus and sage brush in order to farm for sugar beets. He tells a creepy story about ratle snakes, which were so thick that when he turned the marker-on the beet planter he found a ratler under most every sage brush. He would kill and skin them, stretch their skins over a broomstick to cure and take them to Santa Ana and sell them to a man there who made hat bands, purses, belts and covered shoes out of them. He received 50 cents for the plain ones and 75 cents each for those having rattles. He has always had considerable knowledge of things of an occult or mysterious character. It was natural. He can remember Anaheim, Fullerton, Santa Ana, Whittier and even Los Angeles when they were only small towns. He is young in appearance but much older in experience. He has traveled all over the world during the last 18 or 20 years, studying all the mysteries of the different nations on earth, including the thousands of different sects and creeds. After many years of patient research and study he has been able to dumfound the most brilliant minds in the world, such as Sir Oliver Lodge and his co-researchers in things of a supernatural nature. He just finished a ten days' engagement at the Philharmonic—(Clunes) auditorium where over 30,000 people pronounced him the greatest in the world. Men from the mayor's office, Judge Summerfield, City Atty, Stevens, Prof. Bronssn of U.S.C., City Engineer Works, Frank Dominguez, prominent attorney, newspaper reporter, and many men of prominence put him through tests but could not trap him. Perhaps he may have been like Eve—tempted by the serpent. Well, what ever it is, it's good. Tonight at 8:15 will be his last show.

UNCLE SAM'S SQUANDERED MILLIONS. Chairman Graham, of the select committee of the house of representatives which has been investigating war expenses, evidently does not share in the hope entertained in many quarters that the white-wash brush and the easy forgetfulness of the American people should square all accounts of profiteering and multing of Uncle Sam out of his millions. The report of his committee will be ready before the adjournment of congress, and it will recommend the appointment of a special assistant in the department of justice, whose business is will be to examine into a large number of the operations of the sales department of the war department. "I think that hundreds of millions of dollars can be recovered by the government," said Mr. Graham a few days ago. —Try Our 30c Coffee.
