Burch and Mrs. Obenchain were notified to be in readiness to appear before the jury at a moment's notice. It was evident that Burch intended to exercise his legal right and refuse to testify in the jury-room. Whether Mrs. Obenchain would testify was doubtful.

Fifteen-year-old Thomas Besanti, one of the first to reach Kennedy's brain after the murder, was the first person called before the jury. He Mrs. Obenchain's appearance when she called for help after the shooting.

Every Anaheim bank will be represented at the meetings, it is understood. Elaborate arrangements have been made for the entertainment of the visitors during their stay in Los Angeles.

Last week The Plain Dealer was able to make the important announcement that Mills had been presented with three sets of twin calves recently.

BODY OF KIDNAPED PASTOR IS FOUND SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 11.—Father Patrick E. Heslin, the kindnapped priest of Colma, Cal., has been found murdered. Six men early today dug his crumpled body from a rude grave in a tiny grove on the wind-swept cliffs of Salada Beach, some 30 miles south of San Francisco. Not a man in the party knew Father Heslin in life, but identification was certain, because: The body was shrouded in a clerical garb of broadcloth. On it was a little silver disk, bearing the picture of Christ on one side and on the other smiled the Blessed Virgin Mary. In a little velvet case was the bread and wine Father Heslin had taken from his home at Colma a week ago Tuesday night for use in the last sacrament he had been called by his kidnapers to administer "to a dying friend."

S. Warner and Vernon Meyers. Warner told of the boy's arrest Jan. 14 and was corroborated by Meyers. Young Porter shot through their speed trap on the Anaheim side of the county hospital at 59.21 miles per hour, the officers asserted. The length of the trap was 330 feet. Porter making the distance in 3 4-5 seconds. Both officers were grilled by Porter's counsel on the reliability of their stop-watches. Vigorous efforts of Porter's attorneys to compromise the case this morning were unsuccessful. Porter is a high school boy. Several trial dates had been set and postponed.

VETERAN AUTO MAN JOINS L.E.WALTER was certain because: The body was shrouded in a clerical garb of broadcloth. On it was a little silver disk, bearing the picture of Christ on one side and on the other smiled the Blessed Virgin Mary. In a little velvet case was the bread and wine Father Heslin had taken from his home at Colma a week ago Tuesday night for use in the last sacrament he had been called by his kidnappers to administer "to a dying friend." Papers, including a railway rate certificate, a garage bill, bills of lading for furniture and similar articles were also found. William Hightower, a mechanic, furnished the clue which led to the discovery and guided the searching party, composed of himself. Chief of Police O'Brien of San Francisco, Constable Landini of Colma and three newspapers to the grave. Hightower has found the grave first thru a story told him by a woman known as Dolly Mason of Salt Lake City, whose suspicions had been aroused by the disconnected statements of a drunken foreigner who had called upon her. "You better be afraid of this gun," the foreigner told her. "It has killed a man." But he's not alone. Beside his grave sits a man always frying pancakes. Hightower found the grave within sight of a sign, familiar in the west, picturing an old "desert rat" frying pancakes over a little fire. Hightower had found signs of a grave but investigated no further. He told a newspaper reporter and last night the search party went out and uncarted the body of the missing priest. Father Heslin had been shot thru the heart, probably at the brink of the grave. Catridges were scattered nearby. There was nothing to indicate how long Father Heslin was held captive by his kidnappers before he was murdered. Hightower was detained by the police pending the investigation of the case and a search for Dolly Mason was instituted. She was believed to have left San Francisco for Portland, Ore. YOUNG VICTIM OF AUTOIST MAY LIVE Belardo Gonzales, five-year old son of Mr. Gonzales, Mexican, resident of the Sugar Factory colony, who was run over yesterday morning at the head of No. Los Angeles-st by a Ford roadster driven by H. C. Stokes of Los Angeles, will probably "pull through." Dr. J. W. Truxaw stated today. The boy was taken to the county hospital. Examination proved that the boy suffered a fracture of the skull and jaw in addition to several traps on the Anaheim side of the county hospital at 59.21 miles per hour, the officers asserted. The length of the trap was 330 feet, Porter making the distance in 3 4-5 seconds. Both officers were grilled by Porter's counsel on the reliability of their stop-watches. Vigorous efforts of Porter's attorneys to compromise the case this morning were unsuccessful. Porter is a high school boy. Several trial dates had been set and postponed. Conviction means a ten-day jail sentence, according to Judge Cox's usual policy.

ALWAYS READY TO ASSIST POOR MAN "We've been dong that very thing for ten years," says Judge Howard, commenting on the new "poor man"'s court law. Whenever a poor man, unable to retain counsel, has appeared before me, I have always been more than glad to administer my office in the way contemplated by the framers of the new law. However, as drafted, it will not stand appeal. Justice courts must not be made collection agencies and an attempt will be made to use them for that unless the law is changed." RECEIVES WORD OF FRIEND'S FATALITY Mrs. W. B. Parrett has received word of the tragic death of her friend, Mrs. George Carner, of Green, Iowa. Mrs. Carner met her death in an automobile accident in Evanston, Ill., where her daughter was attending summer school. No other particulars were received. The Cararner family will be remembered in Anaheim and by members of the Presbyterian church in which she was an active worker. They lived ORANGE LAST NIGHT, A VALUABLE FOR THE COMMUNITY. By all means, let's have general good time in Anaheim. It is not likely that this will issue any edicts again street dance. VETERAN AUTO MAN JOINS J. E. WALTER H. L. Wnter, one of the real "old timers" in the automobile business, has purchased a half interest with J. E. Walters in the local Jordan agency and expects to locate permanently in Anaheim. Mr. Winter assisted in installing the original machinery in the first automobile plant in America at Detroit, remaining with the Olds Motor works until the plant burned, doing experiment and expert work. He was afterwards with the Thomas Flyer Co., and has been every thing in the automobile business from factory manager, and general sales manager, to salesman and dealer. He has been salesman in every state in the union, and in every civilized country on the globe. His history reads like a romance. But after covering every state in the union and every civilized country in the world, and every county in California, he decided on Orange-co as the livest place that could be found, and Anaheim the livest town in it. And from his general knowledge of cars, and his love for the Jordan he selected the Jordan agency for the most likely car on the market, he says. He is a member of the Elks and Masonic lodges and has been for 26 years. He used to go after the cross-country records long before improved roads were ever otf of, and made the record over dirt roads from Buffalo to New York, 545 mles, in 17 1-2 hours in the early days, a feat that attracted much attention in automobile circles at that time. Those were the days of one-cylinder cars, and a two-cylinder car was the ambition of the manufacturer. Six, eight and 12-cylinder cars were undreamed of. It is interesting to hear him speak of what Ford, the Apperson Brogs., J. E. Olds and other early pioneers would say when they would get together at the meetings of the automobile men, talking of what a great invention the auto was, when they never dreamed of what it would be today. Many of the problems which were real puzzles in those days are never that of now, while the problems of today amuse the "old timers." SEBASTIANS BREAK RECORD WITH SALE AUTOIST MAY LIVE Belardo Gonzales, five-year old son of Mr. Gonzales, Mexican, resident of the Sugar Factory colony, who was run over yesterday morning at the head of No. Los Angeles-st by a Ford roadster driven by H.

Examination proved that the boy suffered a fracture of the skull and law in addition to several painful bruises. Stokes, who was taken into custody by M. F. Andrade, deputy marshal, was released on his own cognizance. Job Printing at the Plain Dealer. TOMORROW IS COUPON DAY. And a host of bargains await you.

Olds and other early pioneers would say when they would get together at the meetings of the automobile men, talking of what a great invention the auto was, when they never dreamed of what it would be today. Many of the problems which were real puzzles in those days, are never that of now, while the problems of today amuse the "old timers." SEBASTIANS BREAK RECORD WITH SALE Sebastian Broz, has seen some record-breaking business days during the many big sales conducted by this popular department store, and today will see another record hung up. It was declared this afternoon by Wm. Sebastian. "We have done the most business than Saturday, since we have been in up to mid-afternoon of any day other business here, and undoubtedly will make a new record," stated Mr. Sebastian. "We expect to see the sale which we launched this morning develop into the largest we have ever had. It is our policy to clean out our present large stock before the arrival of fall goods. "Last year we added a cloak department. It was so successful that we have purchased a stock of cloaks which would be a credit to any store in the county. "We are increasing our sales efficiency by the addition of a modern cash-carrier system." WOMAN'S CHARGE OF BATTERY DROPPED When Mrs. Joseph R. Aguilar failed to appear in the justice court to press a charge of battery against her husband, a baker, Justice of the Peace Cox dismissed the action. Mrs. Aguilar had her husband arrested July 6. The defendant, who is a Spaniard, denied that he beat his wife. He also refuted published stories to the effect that he was a convert of Brother Peter, one of the 13 "apostles" of Brother Isaiah, so-called "miracle man." AIN DEALER. This Paper Believes in the People and Destroys Nothing Better Than Their Continued Confidence. TWENTY-SIXTH YEAR NOW DANCERS COUNCIL EDICT NOT AUTO SHOW IN ANAHEIM Success of the Mid-Summer Auto Exhibition yesterday and last evening at the plaza in Anaheim prompted many Anaheim and northern businessmen, and by no means are all accustomed to the auto industry, to suggest that affair be staged in Anaheim. Why not? From the educational possibilities afforded in presenting in such a readily avail-able opportunity to study and compare of cars handled in the county, the social issues are not to be discounted. At time any considerable number of the scale of Anaheim and Orange-co can get to such socializing numbers as crowded to last night, a valuable thing has been done community. Means, let's have an auto exhibition and good time in Anaheim. Not likely that the Anaheim city council any edicts against the conducting of a race. CAN'T WITHSTAND SYNCOPATED JAZZ FROM MOTOR BAND Great Crowds Attracted by Auto Exhibition; Cavort on Paving Despite Edict City councilmen may propose, but the deer peepul dispose. The eminent city fathers at Orange had decreed with usual dignity that there should be no street dance last night in connection with the Mid-Summer Auto Exhibition of the Orange-co Auto Trades Assn on the plaza there. The Orange chief of police was so notified and everything was all set to see that the majesty of the council's edict should be observed. But observing official edits and holding in leash a shimmying hoof are autos of a different color. When Bandmaster J. S.C. Garrick waved his baton over his Auto Trades Assn. musicians and they struck up some syncopated jazz, the auto show frolickers could stand it only a moment. Then first one and then two or three couples, who knew there was no city ordinance forbidding it, began the street dance. The Orange chef of police walked out and attempted to get their names but the AUTO MAN E. WALTER COMPLETE OPTICAL PARLORS FOR CITY Dr. Walter R. Blakely will open a complete optical parlor in Anaheim within a few days. He will have his own lens grinding apparatus. He has taken a lease in the new Samuel Kraemer building on E. Center-st.

He announces he will give Anaheim its first exclusive optical parlor, and lens-grinding establishments, which will be equipped on a par with similar establishments in much larger cities. Dr. Blakely is a graduate of the Millard School of Optics, of Minnesota, in 1898, taking a graduate course with L. L. Ferguson, New York. Dr. Blakely has been practicing continuously for 23 years. For ten years he was on the state board of optical examiners of No. Dakota. He expects to buy a home here within a few days. At present he is stopping at San Dimas.

Other clashes will be: Bennie Heller, Hemet, vs. Billy Condes, Whittier; Kid Loule, Anaheim, vs. Kid Ross, Anaheim, both at 113, and Earl Cody, San Berdoo, vs. Joe Chaney, Whittier, at 125. THIEVING LANDLORD SHOULD PAY PRICE LOS ANGELES, Aug. 11. — A kissing landlord should be made to pay $7500 apiece for every kiss he steals, according to Mr. and Mrs. John Matsdorf, Oscar LeClaire, a wealthy property owner, in made defendant by them in a suit for $15,000 damages for two kisses alleged to have been stolen from Mrs. Matsdorf. The complaint filed in superior alleges that the landlord systematically sought to make love to Mrs. Matsdorf and on two occasions objectionable to see that the majesty of the council's edict should be observed. But observing official edits and holding in leash a shimmying boof are autos of a different color. When Bandmaster J. S.C. Garrick waved his baton over his Auto Trades Assn. musicians and they struck up some syncopated jazz, the auto show trolickers could stand it only a moment. Then first one and then two or three couples, who knew there was no city ordinance for bidding it, began the street dance. The Orange chef of police walked out and attempted to get their names but the crowd, good naturedly, cut in between him and the dancers. He approached from the other side with the same result. Then he gave it up and shortly several hundred couples were enjoying the great indoor sport out of doors. The auto show was all and more than was anticipated. There were 25 exhibitors of trucks, autos, motorcycles and bicycles. The exhibits found a pretty setting about the plaza and there was a big crowd, especially in the evening. "We estimate 5000 persons viewed this exhibit," said Bob White, chairman of the arrangements committee. "We canvassed the county to insure the success of the show, and the steady stream of automobiles flowing into Orange indicated it was a success." Red, white and blue penants strung across the plaza gave a carnival effect to the opening hour of the show. Approximately 100 cars occupied the spaces reserved for dealers, and added to the color scheme with their newly painted bodies. Cream-colored roadsters, limousines of stately black or deep blue and maroon-tinted touring cars, stood side by side with trucks flaunting vivid reds and yellows. In the evening the entire scene was transformed into a magic display by a system of red, white and blue lights, whose lifeless globes were reflecting the sun's slanting rays. The Auto Trades association band occupied the bandstand built at the corner of the plaza. Entertainment included a concert by the band and songs by local talent. To insure the comfort of their guests, the committee had placed a plentiful supply of seats before the bandstand. Traffic detoured around the plaza which was roped off at an early hour to allow the motor car dealers to arrange their exhibits. In addition to the automobiles, trucks, tractors and motorcycles, displays of auto accessories and camp equipment occupied exhibition space. On the committee which handled the arrangements for the show were Bob White, chairman; Stanley Manur; Orange; Harry D. Riley; Anaheim; and Herbert O. Davis; secretary of the Orange County Auto Trades Assn. Among the dealers who reserved space in the plaza and the cars they exhibited, were: Bob White, Frank- SHOULD PAY PRICE LOS ANGELES, Aug. 11. — A kissing landlord should be made to pay $7500 apiece for every kiss he steals, according to Mr. and Mrs. John Matsdorf, Oscar LeClaire, a wealthy property owner, in made defendant by them in a suit for $15,000 damages for two kisses alleged to have been stolen from Mrs. Matsdorf. The complaint filed in superior alleges that the landlord systematically sought to make love to Mrs. Matsdorf and on two occasions obtained kisses by trickery. His attentions caused the family to move, the complaint states. FIGHT TO SAVE LIFE OF NURSE LOS ANGELES, Aug. 11.—Using every method known to modern science, surgeons at the receiving hospital hoped today to save the life of Kathryn Harris, 18, a nurse who swallowed a large quantity of poison because she was "disgusted with life." After peening a number of notes to relatives, Miss Harris distributed what little money she had to newsboys and then stepped into the rest room of a Hill-st cafeteria. She swallowed the contents of a vial of poison before several women standing near by could thwart her purpose. ATTEND BANQUET AT AMBASSADOR HOTEL Pres. H. M. Adams, E. H.
