HUBBIES SAY THEIR WIVES BEAT THEM LOS ANGELES, June 20.—Page Justice, Cox, the Santa Ana judge, who publicly flops wife beaters. Here are two men who declared they were beaten by their wives and the only redress they had was to sue for divorce. The men were Marlon R. Bingle and Willis P. Smith and the alleged aggressive wives were Lillie M. Bingle and Emily Smith. Bingle testified his wife used a club on him with telling effect and Smith said his spouse hit him on the nose with her flat and made it bleed, whacked him on the head with broom handle, threw a dinner plate at him and pushed him roughly against the wall. Bingle declared after his wife wielded the club she departed for her former home in Kansas, together with their daughter, and left him with four boys to care for. Bingle then employed Attorney John H. Burke and filed suit for divorce, charging cruelty, and after hearing his story, Judge Walton J. Wood granted the decree. The oldest boy, aged 13, was called as a witness for his father. "She came in the house and raised the club to hit him," testified the bad, "and he put his arm up so it wouldn't hit him in the head." Smith's story was told to Judge Summerfield. "She hit me on the hose with all her might," he declared. He said his wife was very strong and tipped the beam at about 175 pounds, while he weighed about 155. "Then she outclassed you," commented Judge Summerfield. "You are a weiterweight and she is a heavy-weight." PROWLER IS ROUTED BY GIRL'S BRAVERY By self control and boldly facing a rowler who stood in her front yard at midnight Miss Ethelind Linden ofanta Ana, clerk in the Orange co. Tie Co., routed a big man who probably AGAIN ELECTED AS STATE SECRETARY Miss Luila Minter, of Santa Ana was re-elected as corresponding secretary of the California Christian Endeavor society for the coming year. The election took place at the annual business meeting of the association which is in session at Glendale with over 4000 persons in attendance. The other officers elected to serve the coming year year: Reese Martin, of Berkeley, president; Garner Scarle of San Jose and Lawrence Bownen of Fresno, vice presidents; Dr. Harry E. Straub of Los Angeles, general secretary; James Cooper of Glendale, treasurer; and Miss Tillie Genter of La Jolla, assistant corresponding secretary. CLIMAX DAYS AT FALKENSTEIN SALE The big semi-annual clearance sale of Falkenstein's department store will come to a close with the end of this week, following two especially big burbain days advertised on Climax Days. Friday and Saturday. The clearance sale has been uniformly satisfactory from the standpoint bath of the store and the customers. Todate, the number of individual transactions, as indicated by the daily sales slips, has been about double those at the clearance sale at the corresponding season last year. The sale has been featured by the large number of out of town buyers, the entire shopping territory contributory to Anaheim being largely represented. Several sales were made to people coming from Huntington Beach. Customers seem satisfied that prices have really touched a gratifying level as it was the object of Falkenstein's in launching the sale that price figures be reduced to the point where they would not be lowered in the immediate future.

The Co. routed a big man who probably intended to attack her. At midnight Miss Linden reached one from a Sunday school party, and uttered the house alone. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Linden had yet reached the place, which is cated three-fourths of a mile and a quarter of a mile north of Garden Grove. After lighting the house, Miss Linden by chance or a mere "hunch," that all was not well, stepped on to the front porch. She stood in the light of the door. A man, described by her as tall and heavy, came out from behind a hydrangea bush besides the steps and stepped toward her. Miss Linden stood her ground calmly, however frightened she may have been, and demanded firmly, "Who are you? The man hesitated then stopped, and probably because the girl showed no year clunk away. Miss Linden walked into the house and telephoned central at Garden Grove to send officers. Jack Jentges and C. B. Scott arrived by automobile in 10 minutes. They found the tracks of a big man, tracks that when measured proved to be from shoes larger than either Jentges or Scott wore. The man had escaped. Unable to solve the mystery of the prowler's visit, families in the section are being warned to be careful about loading any woman or girl alone at home at night. BIBLE SCHOOL HAS ENROLLMENT OF 108 GARDEN GROVE June 30—Garden Grove's community bible school has enrolled 108 children, of ages from 5 to 14 years, since it opened its four weeks course Monday. Super Miss Meta Chaffee is in charge of the junior class, Mrs. A. F. Wade has the primary grade; Mrs. W. B. Thomson, sloy work; and Mrs. F. A. Monroe kindergarten. School is held in the morning hour from 9 a.m., until 12 noon. Practical illustrations are given of all the lessons and Bible stories. "The children are just as happy in their day work as children could be," was the comment of Mrs. Monroe, who thought from the morning's work was quite willing to talk about the children. R. S. YOUNG IN COLLISION R. S. Young, 413 S. Helena-st., collided with a roadster between West End and Garden Grove this morning. He said his wife was very strong and tipped the beam at about 175 pounds, while he weighed about 155. "Then she outclassed you," commented Judge Summerfield, "You are a welterweight and she is a heavy-weight." B. H. SIDNAM BUYS SECOND STUDEBAKER Mr. B. H. Sidnam, rancher of Anaheim, has just taken delivery of his second Light Six Studebaker car. Mr. Sidnam purchased the first one that was delivered in Orange county about a year ago and has had such satisfactory service out of it, that he wanted another new one. The little car has averaged better than 23 miles to the gallon of gasoline the whole time it was in Mr. Sidnam's service, which is truly good mileage. Also there has not been one cent spent on it for repairs in the several thousand miles it has traveled with the exception of greasing and oiling. Another remarkable feature is that the depreciation was so slight that for an expenditure of less than the cost of a new set of tires he was able to buy a new car. Mr. Sidnam is well known in this community having been engaged in the real estate business here and also dealt in automobiles for several years, a business in which he is well posted, and lie is satisfied that the New Light Six Studebaker is the best value to be had on the automobile market today. LEARN MOTOR LAW, ADVISES PHILLIPS C. E. Phillips, manager of the local office of the Auto Club of So.Calif., stated today that traffic officers of Orange-co as well as officers of the various towns in the county have been and will be taking special notice of all traffic violations, minor as well as major. It would be well therefore that all motorists be governed by the law, he said. If any one is in doubt just what this is they may obtain full information at the office of the Auto Club. The Auto Club recovered a Ford touring car yesterday which is being held at Chas: Mannen garage awaiting identification. The rear tires were removed and it had been run on the rims several miles and abandoned.

YOUNG IN COLLISION R. S. Young, 413 S. Helena-st., collided with a roadster between Westminster and Garden Grove this morning because of a truck which screened the view.

He also spoke of the interest shown in farm department work. R. B.

He also spoke of the home department demonstration agents sent to the different farm bureaus from the state university on canning, dressmaking or anything pertaining to the home.

TAX-EXEMPT BOND FIGHT IN CONGRESS WASXHINGTON, June 30.—Alleged municipal extravagance in San Francisco and Los Angeles are to be brought into the Congressional fight against tax-exempt bonds of municipalities. Representative McFadden, chairman of the house committee on banking opened the fight in a slashing speech on the floor of the house last week. He did not mention specifically and municipalities but no secret at being made of the fact that when he takes up his proposed constitutional amendment that will eliminate tax exemption on municipal bonds he will bring in the Hetch Hetchy project at San Francisco and the proposed power and water project being considered in Los Angeles together with conditions as found in Detroit and other cities. McFadden in his speech on the floor of the house said that bloated millionaires that are rushing their money into tax-free bonds find they can get as much net return from a five-per cent tax-free bond as from a 1 per cent bond that is subject to taxation. There are $10,000,000 in outstanding securities that are totally exempt from taxation. All of his is held by he wealthy class of incestors who thus escape their just share of taxation. The "little fellow" must take the taxable bond, he pointed out, and share in the tax burden. COURT DENIES RYS.' PLEA SAN FRANCISCO, June 30.—An R. B. Easson, poultry specialist from the state agricultural school, could not be present and Mr. Waters of Santa Ana gave an announcement of the poultry demonstration to be given on the Keisky branch Tuesday afternoon. He also spoke of the home department demonstration agents sent to the different farm bureaus from the state university on canning, dressmaking or anything pertaining to the home. Miss Clark will be in the county July 15 to meet committees from the different farm centers and to ascertain how the people feel about having a home demonstrator in this county next year. It was decided to have the president appoint a committee of three to meet Miss Clark July 15, as this community is interested in home demonstration work. Professor Hoenshel addressed the audience on the prospect of a Garden Grove high school and when the Bolsa and Alamitos district join it. It will be known as the Garden Grove Union high school. Prof. Hoenshel had been to Cypress and the entire personnel there signed the petition in favor of the high school in Garden Grove. The Savanna district, between Alamitos and Cypress have opened their petition for signatures. Prof. Hoenshel plans on about sixty freshmen and a few sophomores. Santa Ana, Huntington Beach and Anaheim have unofficially agreed to take care of the upper classmen, he said. The Rev. Mr. Silkwood was appointed correspondent for the farm bureau journal. LEADER CONFERENCE STARTS THURSDAY Plans are rapidly being perfected for the leaders' institute to be held at the First Baptist church in Santa Ana June 30 and July 1 and 2 when instruction along the lines to be studied at the annual Vacation Bible school will be given the leaders and teachers of the school. General plans for the session will be in the hands of Professor H. E. Marsh of Redlands university and the corps of teachers to be employed by the various churches will receive three days of intensive training. The Vacation Bible schools will open July 5 and will be featured at many of the churches of Santa Ana for a period of four weeks with the exception of the First Baptist church where the period will extend over the fifth week. The First and United Presbyterian churches have consolidated with the Richland avenue and the First Methodist churches for the school which will be held during the morning hours in each case. The Vacation Bible schools had their inception in New York City held in Santa Ana three years ago when Mrs. O. S. Catland was instrumental in launching the movement. This work has grown amazingly and last year the Baptist school alone numbered over 200 children. It is anticipated that this year's enrollment will exceed that of former years by a goodly number. COURT DENIES RYS.' PLEA SAN FRANCISCO, June 30.—An injunction sought by the Southern Pacific Railroad Co. and the Santa Fe Railroad Co. to estop the state from the collection of the higher rate of taxation assessed on steam railroads under the King tax law passed at the last session of the legislature was denied in federal court here today. The decision was rendered in writing and read from the bench. Counsel for the railroad companies immediately filed objections, indicating that the case would be carrier higher. 300 Pi of High Grade Ename While the Sto 29 WE bought a large stock of high-grade enamelware price that we are able to sell 300 pieces to the pub ware; no seconds.

Newman as District Engineer in charge of the activities of the Mining Bureau in Southern California, outside of the work of the department of petroleum and gas. "The southern portion of the state, particularly the so-called desert region of San Bernardino and neighboring counties, is an empire of mineral wealth, the possibilities of which are only beginning to be realized," said Mr. Hamilton in discussing the situation. "Over two score distinct metals and mineral substances, valued at many million dollars, are already produced there annually, yet it is literally true that thousands of square miles between the Colorado River and Cajon Pass have hardly been traversed by the foot of man."
