Sections of Wisconsin and Minnesota were the hardest hit. Snow and sleet storms crippled wire service through that territory and hampered transportation. In Southern Indiana the Wabash river and other streams topped their banks and inundated large areas of farm lands.

G. Alen and Mr. Warden, the latter representing the Papier Mache Co., of Los Angeles, appeared with beautiful drawings of decorative schemes for the citrus department tent to be 140 by 260 feet in extent. Both designs were submitted in confidence, as no final action has been taken. Suffice to say that the overhead decoration this year will outshine, in electric effulgence, as well as in artistic triumph, the attempt the first year, said by many good judges to have been the most artfully contrived in the previous history of California expositions. Some demand for getting away from the fruit store effect of side rack display, so long a tiresome monotony to the tired spectator's eye, is manifested in both ground plans. It is evident that last year's deviation, in the shape of ten-foot canvases, depicting the phases of the industry, will be improved upon in May. There are several ideas in the active brain of Kurt Epstein, himself a decorator of renown, and Herman Stern, whose contrivance last year elected great praise, which promise to startle even the practised eye of the California show-goer. It will be the wish of the executive committee to provide some seating accommodation, in the arena, and comfortable benches will probably be designed. Some restful decorative architectural ideas have been drawn, to break the monotony of the features. American Fruit Growers' Inc., who made the most effective display at the last show, are considering a bewilderingly beautiful and new idea for this one. Tom Anderson, dean of feature designers will furnish the scheme and build up this feature. Manager Earley, Mutual Orange Distributors, Redlands., is planning an extensive rack display, over which suggestive arches and other decorative matter will be superimposed. Street decorations this year will be more lavish and imposing, also. The committee set a figure for these penses which was the cause of long discussion, but the consensus of opinion was that expense should not be spared in the decoration whatever the cuts in other departments. Messrs Campd, Grafton, Epstein, La Mont, Reeves and Stern were the members present. ELKS HELP SAVE MOTHER'S EYESIGHT "Charlie" Jones, 22, a mechanic in the Liberty garage on So. Los Angeles-st., who recently offered himself to the highest bidder for life in order to obtain money to have an operation performed on his mother's eyes to keep her from going blind, expects to leave the CLEANUP OF WINE AND WOMEN “There’s going to be a cleanup of wine and women in this town,” said J. U. Hemmi, former president of the Civic League, following a meeting of the league last night. “If nobody files by noon today it can be said with certainty that E. H. Metcalf, W. P. Quarton and F. N. Gibbs will be the league candidates. All three men have promised to help clean up the town.” The league at its meeting appointed several committees. Hemmi continued: "The harder scrap the other fellows put up, the harder scrap we'll put up. This requires money, which will come by subscription from private individuals. We have good financial backing. Prominent men have expressed themselves favorably on these three candidates and the purpose of the league, which is law enforcement. It's a very difficult thing, however, to get unanimous agreement on certain candidates. We realize there will be some cutting of these candidates by voters in favor of law enforcement when it comes to voting." Hemmi said he still favored O. T. Callor for city attorney. The league, however, has not approached Callor a second time since his refusal to consider the office last fall, previous to his illness. Hemmi said he regarded Callor as an excellent man for the position, and added that Callor was thoroughly in sympathy with the league's aims. No additional candidates had been filed by noon today, when the doors closed on nominees. There are seven candidates: Frank N. Gibbs, Charles H. Mann, Albert H. Pape, Reuben R. Pember, E. T. Metcalf, W. P. Quarton and Godfrey J. Stock. WHALEN WILL BEGIN POLICE WORK SOON L. O.

Los Angeles-st, who recently offered himself to the highest bidder for life in order to obtain money to have an operation performed on his mother's eyes to keep her from going blind, expects to leave the latter part of this week for Oklahoma to bring his mother out here. Skilled specialists in Los Angeles have agreed to perform the operation gratis if the mother can be brot here, and the local Elks have agreed to stand for the expenses of bringing here there, it was stated this morning. Young Jones left home when he was only 16, but is now ready to go back and make any sacrifice to keep his mother from going blind. She is developing cataracts on her eyes, and, it is said that only an operation can save her. Not having the money to have this performed, he offered to sell himself for life for the money to do it, which brot sufficient responses that he will be able to have the operation performed, and not have to part with his liberty either. "I want to see the lovelight in my mother's eyes and I can't if she goes blind," he said. "That's why I want to prove my devotion to her by sacrificing everything I have even my liberty. The others have deserted her, it seems. She's been a wonderful pal to me—why should not I prove my loyalty? "They thought in my home town that I was a worthless wanderer and that I had deserted the family flock. I want to prove that I can 'come back' to that little mother, the woman that I love more than any one else in the world. I have no funds, neither has she. That's why I am willing to sell myself to the highest bidder that she may see—that I love her." Witman, eyesight specialist.

SUPREME COURT FAVORS TAXPAYERS LOS ANGELES, March 21—Future relief of many Californians from heavy Inheritione and income tax burdens was seen by local attorneys today as a result of the recent decision of the United States supreme court in the California tax case of Blum against Wardell. Recovery of considerable taxes already paid in was considered as likely.

Belton Kennedy. Judge Reeve's opposition to the joint retrial plan made it improbable that Woolwine would insist upon Mrs. Obenchain and Burch being retried together. Burch's second trial will start next Monday. While Mrs. Obenchain was making her first appearance in court since the jury in her case disagreed 9.to 3 for conviction, the Rev.J.
