CAPACITY CROWD AT LEGION MINSTREL
There was a capacity crowd at the ministrel show put on by the Fullerton Post of the American Legion at the Fullerton high school auditorium last night, it being a great success from every standpoint. About $700 or $800 was realized. All the entertainers that were to have been there were not present, but sent substitutes. Carmel Myers was not there but sent a substitute. The Ziefield Follies, however, were on the job, and brought an ocean of mirth into the assembly. The Whittier male chorus also did its part, and the local end of the program was well held up.
MOONSHINE MADE
L. A. FEDERAL BLDG.
LOS ANGELES, April 29.—With Leon V. Rogers, illicit still manufacturer, serving a federal court sentence in the Orange county jail, a test run of moonshine liquor was made today one of his confiscated stills by Capt. John Riley, of the internal revenue field division service. His superior, Maj. F. R. McReynolds, and other federal officials viewed the manufacture of moonshine, made from fig mash, with interest.
It was the first time in the history of the federal building that moonshine liquor was made under its roof. The mash, almost two years old, was seized with the still.
Rogers has posed as the inventor of the still, but Maj. McReynolds, who arrested Rogers, said the prisoner obtained his plan from that of an old man he overheard talking in a barber shop.

COUNCILMEN PLAN TRIP OF INSPECTION TO SO. CALIF. PARKS
Seek Ideas to be Used in Development of Anaheim's Recently Purchased 20 Acres
Before the next council meeting, it was decided last night, councilmen will make a tour of inspection of a number of So. Calif. parks comparable in size and topography to the new 20-acre Anaheim park.
Wilbur David Cook, Jr., of Cook and Hall, leading park designers of So. Calif., presented before the council last drawings and photos of a number of parks they had designed. Cook offered to draw the plans for the park for $1000 and to supervise execution for five per cent of cost of work or at the rate of $5 per hour and traveling expenses. The price of $1000 compares to a price of $2300.

Prince, as chairman of the publicity bureau for the Orange Show, stated a number of decorated Anaheim machines would trek to Pomona tomorrow to advertise the Orange Show in the big Shriners parade. The Orange Show machines will proceed from there to Redlands.
CHANGE MINDS ON ELM-ST EXTENSION
Off again, an again, gone again, Finnigan!
That seems to express the attitude of people in the vicinity of the proposed Elm-st extension between Los Angeles and Claudina-sts.
J. R. Anderson, contractor who has been waiting developments on the proposed improvement before proceeding with a contract with A. Schulte for the remodeling of the old Koenig winery into a sausage factory, presented council last night with a petition protesting against the extension of the street. The petition was signed by a majority of the property holders in the proposed improvement district. Anderson asserted that most of the names on his petition of protest were first on the petition seeking the improvement.
As the matter now stands there will be no extension of the street and won't be until the majority again change their minds.

ARCHITECTS PLANS FOR BIG HOSTELRY IN ANAHEIM TODAY
Picture of Exterior Is of a Most Imposing and Beautiful Hostelry
T. C. Sellers, of Los Angeles, noted Pacific Coast hotel architect, had plans in Anaheim today for the big hotel proposed for S. Los Angeles st. Instead of $275,000, the original estimate, the plans as developed by Sellers call for an investment of $455,000.
The picture of the exterior is of a most imposing and beautiful building.
George L. West, rancher-capitalist, owner of the lot fronting 170 feet on Los Angeles and 180 on Chestnut st., where it is proposed to locate the building, and J. H. Clark, former manager of the Hotel Valencia, who have been visiting hotels all over So. California, are more enthusiastic than ever over the proposition to erect a hotel of this kind in Anaheim.
The hotel will be by far the most up to date and will have the finest cafe between Los Angeles and San Diego.
It will be fireproof thruout. Each guest room will have bath and ice-water. Besides the cafe, there will be large banquet room, breakfast room, private dining rooms, attractive lobby, comfortable lounge, sample rooms, barber shop, billiard room and all the other requisites of a complete and modern hotel. On the first of four floors there will be store-rooing.
The matter of financing the undertaking is progressing most satisfactorily, it was stated today. A group of local men, including bankers, have an engagement in Los Anchorage some Strauss' representatives Chicago capitalist, underwriter for the Ambassador hotel. It is known that some of Strauss' representatives have recommended the proposition very highly to him.
Sellers, the architect, has erected a number of large hotels, including one costing $3,500,000.
MORE SUPPLIES FOR MAY DAY BASKETS
The Woman's Auxiliary of the Anaheim Post of the American Legion are progressing on the gathering of a delightful May Day surprise for the boys in the Crockett-st.
It was decided last night, councillmen will make a tour of inspection of a number of So. Calif. parks comparable in size and topography to the new 20-acre Anaheim park.
Wilbur David Cook, Jr., of Cook and Hall, leading park designers of So. Calif., presented before the council last drawings and photos of a number of parks they had designed.
Cook offered to draw the plans for the park for $1000 and to supervise execution for five per cent of cost of work or at the rate of $5 per hour and traveling expenses. The price of $1000 compares to a price of $2200 for the Yoch plans which, however included supervision to July, 1923.
The council seems to think that the employment-of such professional help should be limited to the drawing of the plans, that the execution can be done by local people.
The council asked Chairman Gates and City Manager Steward of the park committee to be ready with a recommendation of architects at the next meeting.
The council decided to place the present auto camp grounds on Cypress-st on the market; along with two of the three houses which were bought with the park. The best of the three houses will be retained for the parkkeeper. The houses and lots may be bought together or separately. The present auto camp ground fronts 200 feet on Cypress-st and is 180 feet deep. It is proposed to allow for alleys on north and west sides, there being one on the east. This will leave ground for four lots.
Most of the receipts from this sale will go into the general fund, and will probably be used for the development of the park.
BIG IMPROVEMENTS TO MASONIC TEMPLE

U.S.:WOULD DELAY ALLIED INVASION
BEAUTIFUL YOUNG GIRL IS MURDERED LEWISTOWN, Pa., April 29—Erma Rhodes, a beautiful 14-year old girl of Rodeyville, was found murdered early today on the highway near this town, following an alleged mysterious escape with her elder brother.
A few hours before she had been seen setting out affoot from the neighboring town of McClure in company with her 20-year old brother, Reed Rhodes, dressed in a soldier's uniform and carrying a 32.40 repeating rifle on his shoulder.
The brother, who could not be found, was recently discharged from a reformatory after serving a term in connection with robbery of a Burnham bank.
Two Surprises Sprung In Fight Over Estate
Two surprises were sprung in Superior Judge West's court in the hearing of two petitions for administration of the estate of Eustace S. Young, known also as Earl J. Easton, recently killed with a woman supposed to have been his wife in an auto accident south of Santa Ana.
Mrs. Young, the San Diego wife, testified that when her husband deserted her, her certificate of marriage also disappeared. She said they were married in Chicago in 1898. She denied she had told Public Administrator Brown, as he had previously testified, that she had been given a final decree of divorce from Young but admitted that she had obtained an interlocutory decree March 4.
At the request of her counsel, John A. Harvey, the hearing was postponed two weeks in order to find documentary evidence of the marriage, the court holding that the marriage license record would not be considered such. Harvey will also seek witnesses.
MORE SUPPLIES FOR MAY DAY BASKETS
The Woman's Auxiliary of the Anaheim Post of the American Legion are progressing on the gathering of a delightful May Day surprise for the boys in the Crockett-at hospital in Los Angeles, but they need more cash to buy cigarettes, they need more home made candy, more oranges and more old clothes. The school children are working under the direction of Mrs. Clyde Webb, making baskets for the occasion.
Million Gallons of Water Pumped Thurs.
Did you drink or otherwise dispose of 133 gallons of water yesterday? If you didn't you failed to get your share. Because—
Yesterday, as well as the day before, because of the extreme April heat wave, the Anaheim city water works broke all records and each day pumped more than 1,000,000 gallons of water.
Counting 7500 population, this is 133 gallons per capita.
From 6:30 to 11:30 a.m. yesterday the city pumps were lifting 1100 gallons of water per minute. When it really warmed up in the afternoon, this rate was increased and the big pumps were working overtime until late at night.

U.S.WOULD DELAY ALLIED INVASION
WASHINGTON, April 29—The U.S. government was believed today to have decided upon a policy of asking the allica to delay for 15 days the proposed invasion of German territory and the further seizure of German cities.
Reports from Paris indicated that the allies would agree to this request and would halt their occupation of the Ruhr valley, at least until May 15.
There was every indication, it was asserted, that within the period of this delay an adjustment of the German indemnity situation could be brought about in a manner to avoid further military operations.
It is also rumored that this government used a lever to secure further delay the threat of removing all American troops from occupied German territory.

A minute before the two women had stopped in their automobile to ask the road to St. Charles, Ill. At the sound of the shooting the machine which was a block down the street, stopped and the slayer ran to it, leaped in and sped away.
Shot gun squads were sent out to hunt the slayer.

The council is proceeding with the idea of erecting the building on the site of the present structure.
While the plans prepared by Kistner were very complete four years ago, it is stated by councilmen that the growth of the city will necessitate some changes. For instance, since those plans were prepared the city has adopted the city manager plan quarters for that office are required.
The Kistner plans included quarters for two fire trucks; tower for drying fire hose; four clock faces on tower; police department offices; emergency hospital; separate jails in basement for men and women; quarters at front of basement; which would be light and airy; for chamber of commerce; offices on main floor for city clerk; rate collector and other officer; council chamber and half dozen other offices on the second floor.
There are two entrances to the building, one near the tower which is about midway of the building on the Claudina-st side and the main entrance approached by broad steps to a collaron on the Center-street side.
The council is considering a plan to locate the new well and pump, for which $10,000 of the $50,000 for water department improvements will go upon the new city park. This is held by some to be desirable: 1—because the park will require considerable water; 2—because a pump located at that section of the city, pumping directly into the mains, will greatly increase water pressure.
The auxiliary pump proposal for the fire truck is regarded as a necessity before any additional tall buildings are erected as are now under consideration. For instance, the present pressure at simes is insufficient to put water on the third floor of The First National bank building.
