That's the record of Miss Kidranouhi Krihorian, just arrived here from her home in Armenia. The "Holy Territor" of the Armenian army, was the name they gave her when they were fighting the Turks, and those 75 gun nicks mean one dead Turk per nick. At the age of eleven Kidranouhi's mother, father, brothers and sisters were murdered before her eyes. She was saved, only to be sold at auction to an Arab brigand, whose slave she was for four years. It was in the garb of an Arab boy that she enlisted with the Armenian army. Her commanding officer aid guardian, Lieut.Shishmanian, of the Foreign Legion, has brought her to some friends in this country. o(—) The American-born Countess Florina de Martinprey has gone the rest of the memoir writers one better.

The motorbus and motor truck lines should be made to bear a share of state tax burden at least equal to that, in proportion, borne by the electric railways, and that the state tax budget should be decreased instead of tremendously increased this year were declarations of William W. Mines, of Los Angeles, former police commissioner and former head of the Los Angeles Realty Board, in a statement issued by him today. Referring to the King excess bill, now pending in the legislature and which would increase the state tax budget from $47,000,000 to $81,000,000, Mr. Mines said he believed that the public utility companies would be borne in the end by the people in increased service rates. This is the time for the most rigid economy, and not extravagance and it is a time in which that same rigid economy should be practiced in the state administration as well as in the homes and business houses of the world. Last year our state tax budget, fixed at $47,000,000 for the years 1919 and 1920, certainly was burdensome enough and we had reason to expect that because of the stress of high cost of living, the state officials would endeavor to chop the cost of state government. But no; instead of cutting down the expense, the state administration at Sacramento, in the King bill, would authorize a total tax budget of $81,000,000 for 1921 and 1922! While I am not an apologist for public utility corporations, I want to enter my most strenuous protest against any increase in the state tax burden over the amount of last year's budget. They should chop down the expense, instead of raising it. J. Paul Taggart returned Tuesday evening from San Diego, where he had been for a few days looking after business matters. Mrs. J. W. Truxaw and Miss Ida Marie Daly have been in Santa Ana today, where they have been looking after business matters. The Annhelm Motor Co. reports the sale of Faegol tractors to Paul D.

The three children of Mr. and Mrs.H.C.Seymour, of S.Lemon-st, have been very ill for several weeks with everybody in New York who has any private stock still on hand, is considerably disturbed over the joker in a bill recently introduced into the legislature to bolster up prohibition enforcement. It makes a citizen responsible for whatever damage may be done by anyone to whom he has given liquor If a guest, even several hours after leaving one's house,smashes a window or a policeman,the policeman or the window owner may collect damages not from the exhilerated one but from his generous friend.No time limit is given in the bill,and the man who goes on an unexpected rampage might swear it was the result of a delayed hang-over and so have all bills sent to a host of a week or so back.The measure if passed,certainly will put a damper on any liquid hospitality still extant. One of the most interesting,because unexpected,rows of buildings in New York will soon give way to the progress which long ago engulfed the rest of their neighborhood.The are six frame dwellings on Fortieth-st,between Broadway and Sixth-ave.With business sky-scrapers hemming them in,they have stood there for nearly 100 years.set back about 20 feet from the sidewalk behind old iron railings.And they have house queer little shops running largely to antiques and near-art.The most startling occupation carried on in them is where the bellows son to expect that because of the stress of high cost of living, the state officials would endeavor to chop the cost of state government. But no; instead of cutting down the expense, the state administration at Sacramento, in the King bill, would authorize a total tax budget of $81,-000,000 for 1921 and 1922! While I am not an apologist for public utility corporations, I want to enter my most strenuous protest against any increase in the state tax burden over the amount of last year's budget. They should chop down the expense, instead of raising it. "In my opinion allowing for the $18,000,000 voted by the people in the last election, of which $13,500,-000 was for schools, $500,000 for tubercular children, and $4,000,000 for highway bond interest, the proposed state tax budget still is more than $15,000,000 too large. The state tax budget, at the very outside, should not be more than about $65,000,000 or $66,000,000. "It is time that Governor Stephens should do in California what Governor Lowden did in Illinois. Governor Lowden chopped off no less than 125 state commissions which he considered useless and wasteful, and substituted only nine. I am informed on good authority that California's state commissions could be pruned to save at least $2,000,000 without any trouble at all."
