ANIMAL CIRCUS NOW CALIF. ENTERPRISE Howe's Great London Circus with Van Amberg's Trained Wild Animals, now a California enterprise, owned and managed by San Francisco capitalists, is to exhibit in Anaheim, afternoon and evening, Monday, April 10. Among the new features are a pair of baby lions born in winter quarters at Palo Alto, Jan. 10, 1922; a baby monkey, arriving at about the same time and also with just claim to citizenship; "Mizpah," a white or Albina camel, heading the only troupe of camels who have been broke to perform; "Rubber," the giant elephant, largest of his kind; lions who ride horses and soar heavenward in balloons; Jules Jacot's group of forest-bred, fighting lions; Mile. NaNova's mixed group of wild and domestic animals Mile. Falkenstoff's cougars, leopards and jaguars; Chas. Fulton's peerless exhibition of horse accomplishment; "Maud" the only mule ever broken to do cake-walking; ball room dancing horses; Casteel's educated dogs, monkeys and goats; not forgetting the clowns, an army of them, headed by Kenneth Waite, greatest of original producers. All to be seen for fifty cents. We do not wonder at the kiddies being more considerate than just before Christmas. There's a reason! TOURIST MECCA IS DAMAGED BY FIRE NASSAU, Bahama Islands, April 4.—Nassau, Mecca for winter tourists and center of rum-running activities, was partly in ruins today as a result of a fire. The fire started in the laundry of the biggest tourist hotel here, the Colonial, and spread, forcing firemen to dynamite other buildings to save the city from destruction. There were no casualties and the fire was brought under control today. SHOOTING SUSPECT HELD Leonardo Moreno, a Mexican, has been arrested at Corona in connection with the shooting of Chief of Police Redans there, according to Outstanding Features of Great Coal Strike (From Coal Age) The United Mine Workers of America have called a strike in the anthracite and btiluminous coal mines. There are approximately 400,-000 union bituminous coal mine workers and 150,000 anthracite workers. The bituminous coal miners demand the maintenance of the present scale, made in 1920, for which the basic wage is $7.50 a day for common labor. They demand a five-day week with a basic six-hour day and punitive overtime pay. Bituminous coal operators seek to have wages reduced in order to decrease the cost of production and bring down the mine price of coal. They reject the five-day week and six-hour day as uneconomic, and seek to retain the present eight-hour day. They desire the abolition of the check-off by which they are compelled to collect union dues and assessments. Anthracite miners demand an increase of 20 per cent in the contract rate and $1 a day in the rate for day labor. They demand other changes in rates and working rules which would result in increasing the cost of production. Anthracite operators insist that wages must come down in conformity with wages in other industries, in order that the cost of coal at the mines may be reduced. Anthracite miners and operators are at present in conference in an attempt to negotiate a new wage scale. Bituminous coal miner workers have refused to negotiate with operators except for the industry as a whole. Operators generally are opposed to national wage agreements, preferring local settlements. The anthracite industry is thoroughly unionized, but has no The fire started in the laundry of the biggest tourist hotel here, the Colonial, and spread, forcing firemen to dynamite other buildings to save the city from destruction. There were no casualties and the fire was brought under control today. SHOOTING SUSPECT HELD Leonardo Moreno, a Mexican, has been arrested at Corona in connection with the shooting of Chief of Police Redans there, according to word received here this morning. Moreno will be taken to Riverside Search is being continued, however, for Antonio Hernandez, alias Jack Meyers, whom Redans alleges is the man who shot him. Hernandez is said to have shot him three times at close range as the chief was seated in his car near the city hall. Redans hurried to the Community Hospital. According to witnesses Moreno was seen in conversation with Hernandez just before the shooting.

Bituminous coal miner workers have refused to negotiate with operators except for the industry as a whole. Operators generally are opposed to mational wage agreements, preferring local settlements. The anthracite industry is thoroughly unionized, but has no check-off. About one-third of the bituminous coal production comes from non-union mines. Official estimates are that there will be at least 63,000,000 tons of coal in reserve on April 1. These reserves are in the hands of consumers; they have been purchased and shipped. These stocks, sufficient in themselves for 40 days, with the production of non-union mines, will be sufficient to take care of the requirements of the country at the present rate of consumption for a considerable period. KIWANIS OBSERVES PEACE CENTENNIAL One hundred or more Kiwiians and their guests, including many local former Canadians, heard Dean MacCormick of St. Paul's Pro-Cathedral of Los Angeles today at the weekly luncheon meeting in the Elks clubhouse. The club had intended to observe the centennial of peace between the United States and Canada by a get-together meeting at night, but the plans were changed: The feature of the gathering, aside from Dean MacCormick's address, was an urgent plea that everybody get out and vote for the sewer bond issues. F. A. Backs, Jr., the new president, presided. Dean MacCormack gave a scholarly and inspiring talk in which he said he was an Irishman by birth, a Canadian by education and an American by choice. He told of the circumstances in connection with the observance of the anniversary of peace, and dwelt upon the magnificence of the long-sustained peaceful relations between the two countries. Since warcraft were withdrawn from the Great Lakes there never has been any armed conflict between the Dominion and the Union. The centennial was observed today by Kiwanis clubs along over the United States. Canada will observe a similar day for the same purpose.

KING'S SON NEEDS BRIDE OF WEALTH LONDON, April 4—Prince Henry third son and fourth child of King George, celebrates his twenty-second birthday today, and salutes were fired in London, Windsor, and all naval and military stations, in honor of the anniversary. The young prince is a lieutenant in the Tenth Hussars. But young Henry has few privileges, being a younger son, and unless he can secure a wealthy bride, he will be condemned to the rather humdrum existence of a junior officer, compelled to work his way up through every grade. The British royal family has no money to spare for younger sons. A rather serious-looking young man, Prince Henry has had no opportunity to display special brilliance, except in the field of sport. He is easily the best cricketer and polo-player in the family. He is also a fine cross-country runner.
