STICKEL WILL MEET WITH OIL WORKERS
R. H. Stickel, international president of the Oil Field, Gas Well and Refinery workers of America, will visit the Brea local at its regular meeting tonight.
Stickel is expected to give the latest news on the present crisis, which has arisen over the refusal of the oil operators to meet in conference with the government's meditation board and representatives of the workers.
According to local authorities no new developments have arisen in the situation. Local oil men are going quietly about their business, and are awaiting the action of the government and of the international officers, who are working toward inducing the operators to meet in conference. Preparations are being made to strike Sept. 1 should this be forced by refusal of the operators to negotiate, the workers feeling that there is no other course to pursue under the circumstances.
The Village Gossip
All last week, N. M. Durkee suffered near nervous prostration as he wondered what kind of a fish story his partner, H. P. Tobin, would bring back from Big Bear. For it will be remembered, Durkee himself is somewhat given to fish stories, bringing back a whale of an account from his vacation trip, and Tobin was naturally expected to go him one better.
But today Durkee was laughing that he should ever have permitted himself to become nervous.
When Tobin returned, he replied to the expectant Durkee's query:
"Did we catch fish! Oh, my yes, we landed three or four nice ones. They weren't biting and no one was catching them. In fact, we must have had the best luck of anyone at the lake."
That didn't sound so much out of the way, and Durkee breathed a sigh of relief. But, the truth will out.
CHITTYS MOVE INTO NEW, MODERN HOME
Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Chitty moved yesterday into their new seven-room attic home recently constructed at 204 South Bush-st. There is a small but fine bearing orchard in connection, of 1 1/4 acres, from which they will easily pick 500 boxes of valencias. This is a good pick, indeed as nursery trees occupy 400 feet of the space, leaving the balance for bearing trees.
WOMEN'S MAGAZINE EDITOR TOURS WEST
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 25—On a tour of the west on his first vacation in nine years, John Meagher, editor of the Home Friend Magazine at Kansas City, Mo., was en route from Los Angeles to Salt Lake City today after a brief visit here.

Police Probe Fall of Man From Window
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 26—With one man detained, Hollywood police today conducted an investigation of the circumstances surrounding the fall of the H. H. Waters, a guest of a fashionable Hollywood hotel, from a third story window of the hostelry. Waters suffered severe lacerations on the head and body bruises. Police said they received reports Waters was thrown out of the window. Michael J. Pendergast, 719 South Olive-st, was held.

LA PAZ, Bolivia, Aug. 25—South America's second transcontinental railroad is at last upon the road to completion.
With the president of Bolivia authorized by congress to sign the proposal of the Ulen Contracting Co. of Chicago for financing the building of the last unit of the line between Atocha, and La Quilaca, Argentina, there is a prospect of soon having in operation a through route that while much longer than the one to the south, will Alice Brady will be seen in "The New York Idea" at the Grand tonight. There will also be a comedy and a Ford weekly.

FISHERMAN'S LURE FOR FRENCH TRAVEL
PARIS, Aug. 25—Little by little French authorities are beginning to lend governmental aid to the work of attracting tourists to France.
They are not making much effort to attract them to the devastated regions of the north and east, since their main concern there is to get the inhabitants themselves comfortably housed and at work. But in other directions they are endeavoring to draw foreign visitors, and particularly Americans and Englishmen, to the resorts which were untouched by the war.
OLDEST MOTOR CAR IN RUNNING ORDER
PARIS, Aug. 25—Pa.is saw what is asserted to be the oldest motor car the other day when this vehicle known as L'Ancertre, passed slowly and noisily by the Arc de Triomphe and down the Champs Elysees.
The old car looked odd beside the limousines in the boulevards. It moved along with a certain stately grotesqueness that reminded one a bit of forlorn ambulations of that quaint old man in Holmes's "The Last Leaf." It has done useful service from the time of its birth 29 1/2 years ago to the present day. The old automobile belongs to the Abbe Gavois, a while haired priest of Renneville, who has used it for many years in going about to visit his parishioners and attending to his many duties.

But today Durkee was laughing that he should ever have permitted himself to become nervous.
When Tobin returned, he replied to the expectant Durkee's query:

That didn't sound so much out of the way, and Durkee breathed a sigh of relief. But, the truth will out.
In this case, Ed Schlotter has seen that it gets out. When Tobin got a little strong on use of the editorial we in his accounts of the catch at Big Bear, Schlotter couldn't do otherwise than to let the public know the facts which are:
1—Tobin never got a fish on his own line.
2—Anotone Dahl, another member of the party, did get a strike.
3—On the plea that, Dahl was lacking in experience to land his catch, Tobin grabbed the pole from Dahl and luckily got the fish into the boat.
4—That's where Tobin gets the stuff.
5—Also, that explains Durkee's broad grin.
GET JERNIGAN'S GOAT
SANTA ANA, Aug. 26.—Is a goat a public nuisance?
A woman residing on Lacy-st has declared it so, and she has registered a complaint with the police department.
A neighbor's goat makes lots of noise, she says, and she wants something done about it.
City Marshal Sam Jernigan was debating today just what course to pursue. The issue may be put up to the city council.
It appears that the problem has got Jernigan's goat.
Complaints registered by various residents relative to pets belonging to their neighbors usually put the authorities in an embarrassing position.
"Heaven't we got fun?" said Constable Jesse Elliott in discussing the situation with the chief this morning.
