SEATTLE, Wash., anese have thousand foodstuffs stored in V they won't release at the Russians," said Jairer American-fur buyer today after two years churia.
"This is the first time I have ever been in jail," said Miss Daniels as the heavy iron door closed behind her, and then she looked wildly around for a little wood on which she knocked her knuckles—and it's the last time, too," she finished after the wood-knocking ceremony.
Miss Daniels' first night in jail was shared by her mother. The two were assigned to one of the front cells on the second floor, and provided with a double bed and a cot.
The county jail was the busiest place in all Orange-co today. The whirl of business began early this morning when Miss Daniels began partaking of her first breakfast, sent in from St. Ann's Inn.
Sheriff Jackson never found the jail such a center of interest. The telephone began jangling long before breakfast. The jailer was kept busy answering calls. Most of them were for Miss Daniels and they were from anxious friends in Los Angeles, Santa Ana and other places.
Miss Daniels appeared for breakfast clad in a natty sport coat and outing skirt, just as though she were going for a drive or to meet some friends. Jail was the most remote third in her mind. Her face was wreathed in a happy smile as she greeted the first caller.
Altho the sheriff stated he would allow the movie star no more privileges than any other prisoner, the jail didn't seem so awful. Miss Daniels was accorded the courtesy of a cell on the second tier of the jail, which contained a big double bed and a couch. A Santa Ana furniture store tastily furnished the cell, including a phonograph and a volume of good books.
Then, too, there is a vase of flowers of the little stand in the room. It was placed there this morning by the matron.
Miss Daniels will leave prison, free once more, on Sunday, April 24, shortly before noon, having completed her sentence at that time.
On the trip to Santa Ana last evening in the actress' big limousine, were her mother and grandmother, Mrs. George Butler Griffin, and another auto conveying Los Angeles friends.
Belief was expressed that the accrue needed in the county to make the 75 per cent, needed can be easily secured by work among old members.
There are about 800 acres of cots in this county and according to growers the crop of 1921 will be about the same as that of 1920, when approximately fifteen carloons were shipped. Crops on older trees were damaged by rains, and will be light. Younger trees will produce good yields.
Hamilton stated that the crop in some parts of the state was badly damaged by the cold snap of a few days ago. So far as could be ascertained the Orange County fruit was not injured at all by the cold wave.
SLASH IN BEAN RATE INTERESTS GROWERS
Orange County bean growers Today were deeply interested in the announcement that the Lima Bean Growers' Assn. had been successful in its efforts to secure a lower freight rate on beans shipped by water. Steamer shipments from Pacific Coast terminals to Gulf and Atlantic Coast ports have been reduced from 70 cents to 55 cents a hundred pounds.
The rate concession was made at a conference of steamship agents held in S.F. with R.L. Churchill, Manager for the Lima Bean Growers' Assn., presenting detailed facts as to why there should be a reduction. The rate is effective at once, and while made operative only until August 1, 1921, it is believed the rate before that date will be made permanent.
The rail rate on beans from coast to coast is $1.25 1-2. It is pointed out that adding thirty cents from coast to inland ports, the water rate will still be 40 cents below the land rate.

Clarence A. Noyes, a co-partner of Bowles, is now in jail in Sacramento also charged with robbing the tailor shop. The loot which he was alleged to have secured was taken to San Francisco in Senator Eden's car, and it was in that city that Noyes was captured.
Bowles, according to Sheriff Jackson, has confessed numerous burglaries throughout the state and particularly in Orange County. He will be prosecuted here.

He had these pictures enlarged and sent them to Congressman Swing and U. S. Senator Hiram Johnson.

NEW POMONA BLUE LAW IS ENJOINED
LOS ANGELES, April 16.—Presiding Judge Shenk of the superior court today issued a temporary injunction; restraining city officials of Pomona from putting into effect tomorrow the recently adopted blue law prohibiting motion picture theatres from operating on Sundays. He also ordered the officials to show cause why the new ordinance should be put into effect within less than 30 days after its first publication, which was on April 11. The West Coast Theatre, Inc., asked for the restraining order because the city officials had threatened it, was stated, to prevent the operation of this company's two Pomona theatres tomorrow.
BILL FIXING AREA OF NEWPORT PASSED
They will soon know exactly where the city of Newport Beach is. That is, they will when Governor Stephens signs a bill which was introduced by Senator Walter Eden of Santa Ana and which after passing the Senate was approved yesterday by the Assembly and sent to the state's chief executive.
The measure rediffines the boundaries of the beach city. The bill was made necessary principally because the Santa Ana river, whose north bank had formerly been designated as one of the limits of the city of Newport beach, had been diverted at Bitter Point to empty directly into the ocean, instead of being allowed to continue to follow a course toward Newport proper and to empty both itself and its silt into Orange County's harbor.
JAPS HOARDING FOOD IN SIBERIA SAYS AMERICAN
SEATTLE, Wash., April 16.—Japanese have thousands of tons of foodstuffs stored in Vladivostok, but they won't release a pound of it to the Russians," said James Rosenberg, American fur buyer, who is here today after two years spent in Manchuria.
WOMAN DYING WITH EASTON NOT WIFE
With court action on two petitions for letters of administration in the estate of Eustace S. Young, sometimes known as Earl J. Easton, continued to Friday, April 28, it became known today that Young, or Easton, and the woman who was known as his wife and who were both killed in an automobile accident on the night of March 31, were not legally married, though they were known as Mr. and Mrs. Earl J. Easton.
The petitions on file in the county clerk's office reveal the fact that Easton, whose real name was Eustace S. Young, left his wife and two daughters four years ago. They are Mrs. Anna Young, the widow, and two daughters, Lois, 16, and Lucinda Mae Young, 14. They reside in San Diego.
John A. Harvey, attorney for the widow, filed a petition yesterday for letters of administration of Young's estate. A similar petition was filed April 5 by Public Administrator Charles D. Brown. At the time of the filing of the first petition—the existence of the widow was not known, it is said. Both petitions will come before Superior Judge West on April 29.
According to the petitions, Young left $1162.40 in the California National Bank and real estate in Orange County. The exact holdings have not been determined, but it is stated in the petition that the entire estate will not exceed $6000.
Relatives of the woman who was killed in the auto accident were never located. She is a native of Yucatan, Mexico, and about 25 years of age. Young, or Easton, was 43.
Easton was instantly killed when the automobile in which he and his supposed wife were returning from Balbon turned over in a ditch. The woman died at the community hospital about four hours after the accident.
Mrs. Easton's last name was Delores according to the statement of Mrs. Young, wife of the dead man. Her first name is not known here. She used Dolores as a first name while posing as Mrs. Easton.
Mrs. Young has told Attorney Harvey that Miss Dolores entered the employment of her husband at Spokane, Wash., as a stenographer, four years ago. Later he abandoned his family and left with his stenographer for parts unknown to the wife. She did not know that he was living in Santa Ana under an assumed name until advised of the death by Young's brother, who resides at Redlands.
Sandilands personally photographed two groves, trees lying on side with roots in the air, and showing withered leaves and lemons still on the branches, unmistakably indicating them to be just what they were labeled. He had these pictures enlarged and sent them to Congressman Swing and U.S. Senator Hiram Johnson.
Today Sandilands announced the mall had brot, acknowledgements from both statesmen of receipt of these pictures. Each stated they had proven of invaluable aid in steps taken to protect lemon growers in proposed tariff legislation.
While their letters did not say so Sandilands believes that emergency protection will be forthcoming long before the permanent tariff measure can be enacted.
Both local exchange associations have begun picking valencias and will begin packing Monday. For a few days packing will proceed in leisurely fashion but, on account of the enormous crop, they will soon have to get under full headway, it was stated today. The Anaheim Orange and Lemon Assn.-shortly will be shipping out eight cars daily and the Anaheim Citrus Fruit Assn., with its two houses, ten cars daily.
"The fruit is in fine shape, about the finest Valencias we have ever had." declared Sandilands today.
"All oranges now going forward by steamer will be valencias, and as it is desire do ship only the best they will naturally come from this district." We have been notified to get ready for a cargo leaving next week. This will be five cars.
The following week there will be a car-go leaves San Pedro for Liverpool.
There is no doubt that water shipment is going to play a big part in our scheme of citrus marketing from now on. Just as fast as refrigerator space is available oranges are going forward by water at big savings over rail freight.
“There will be 10,000 to 15,000 carloads of canteloupes in Imperial valley which have been planted in the hope that freight rates will be reduced. If they are not reduced, the canteloupes will never be moved, leaving a much better market for our oranges. If the rail freights are reduced on canteloupes they must also be reduced on oranges. So we win either way."
"As a matter of fact the price of oranges now prevailing in the east compares very favorably with other years. In fact, it might be said to be satisfactory but for the high freight rates which do not leave enough margin to meet the growers' cultural costs."

"It is rumored there will be a revolution against the Japanese in Siberia this spring and the Japanese are not going to be caught unprepared if they can prevent it.
"The Japanese are doing everything possible to hinder trade with the United States. When a great leader appears in Russia then America may expect to reap an enormous trade with Siberia. These people like American goods and would buy now if they had the money."
BANDITS STEAL CARS; FIRE UPON CITIZENS
LOS ANGELES, April 15.—Automobile bandits stole two machines, fired shots at citizens who attempted to pursue them and then held up and robbed another automobile party within an hour in Los Angeles early today.
The bandits first stole a sedan belonging to Mrs. Wade Walker, 1755 East First street, Mrs. Walker heard the engine of her car starting and notified a friend, who pursued the bandits six blocks, when the latter opened fire.

Doesn't Like Game of "Flat on Your Back"
There's one game I don't like, and that's the game of playing flat-on-your-back," Charles Dryden, nationally known baseball writer, declared today at the Anaheim sanitarium, where he underwent an operation for double hernia.
Dryden has been a baseball writer more than 30 years, working in San Francisco, Philadelphia and Chicago, and expects to return to work in Chicago as soon as he is able. He says he usually spends his summers trekking around with the athletes and takes it easy in the winter.
Dryden is a bachelor, and therefore has no wife to scold or baby to squall. When asked how he had escaped so many leap years, he replied: "Oh, well, I ain't got nothing ag'in 'em, but I always leaped first."
He stated that baseball writing is a very fascinating art; tho of considerable sameness, it always has its variety. There are 100 different combinations that can be brot up in a game, he declared.

LUTHERAN CHURCH
CELEBRATES SUNDAY
Grace Lutheran church will join with the Lutheran churches of Santa Ana in the celebration of the four hundredth anniversary of Martin Luther's stand before the Diet of Worms April 18, 1521, when he said, "Here I stand.

President Harding made the following statement regarding the event and its celebration:
"On the occasion of the four hundredth celebration of Luther's stand before the Diet of Worms, I think there will be a general agreement that Luther's firm advocacy of unfettered opinion deserves commemoration as one of the notable contributions toward mankind's intellectual emancipation. Its fitting celebration will be testimony to the fact that the world has since his time, traveled far on the way to realizing his ideal of full individual liberty."

Since the opening of Chevrolet agencies in both Fullerton and Anaheim the business has increased to such proportions that it has become necessary in order to increase the efficiency of the organization to operate from a centralized point. For various business reasons it was thot a more simple matter to transfer the Anaheim office than the Fullerton extensive quarters.
Mr. Taggart, however, states that the Anaheim territory will not be neglected as a full line of cars will at all times be on display. A service man and a salesman will be kept in Anaheim and efficiency in this department will not be sacrificed.
The changes which will be evident will be the removal of the bookkeeping departments and the larger stock of parts. However, a sufficient supply of parts will be in the Anaheim stock room to render quick service to the needs of Chevrolet owners in Anaheim and vicinity.
THINGS HUMMING AT L. A. AND CENTER-STS
Things were humming around Center and Los Angeles-sta this afternoon. But that might be taken to mean one thing while really it might mean another, or many. In this instance it means many, for there were hundreds of 'em. No, not autos nor flying machines either, tio they did fly. It was some man's apiary which had taken a notion to leave him in the cold, and then would have "sat-fied" on the flag pole at the intersection of Anaheim's two busiest streets if they could only have gotten the least encouragement. Tex Chote of goat milk-fame, suggested a bucket to catch them in. Whether or not he expected honey too to add to his supply of goat milk is a conjecture.
