WMEN THRU WITH YOUR PLAIN DEALER, MAIL IT TO EASTERN FRIENDS—IT MAY BRING THEM TO ANAHEIM, FASTEST GROWING CITY IN ORANGE COUNTY. VOL. XXVI—NO. 47 PLAYING IN START OVER FOR BOND ELECTION Council Leaves Out $20,000 for Ornamental Lights on Objection of Attys. City council last night, at an adjourned session, rescinded its resolution of intention to call a bond election, and adopted a new one which leaves out provision for $20,000 for payment of one-fourth the cost of ornamental light system extensions. Bond-buyers' attorneys had objected to the proposal on the ground that Stole Safe But Gets Probation LOS ANGELES, Oct. 7.—Pleading quality to the grand larceny of a 2000-pound safe, Joseph Earl Spencer was today placed on probation for three years by Superior Judge Frederick Honser. Spencer, who is 18 years old, is said to have been one of four men who removed the safe from an office and then to have rifted it of its contents. The plea for probation made on behalf of Spencer by Deputy Public Defender Robert H. Scott was based on the fact that Spencer was not the leader in the burglary in which the safe was stolen and also because of his youth. City council last night, at an adjourned session, rescinded its resolution of intention to call a bond election, and adopted a new one which leaves out provision for $20,000 for payment of one-fourth the cost of ornamental light system extensions. Bond-buyers' attorneys had objected to the proposal on the ground that it was indefinite. If property owners had signed for such an improvement or an improvement district had been formed, or the city paid the entire cost, it could have gone thru. Rather than longer hold up the election for the other bonds the light system is dropped. The bond election will be held the second Tuesday in November, as first planned, or shortly thereafter. R. L. Royalty appeared before council and urged the ornamental lights be installed in the Elk Park tract. He said residents there were anxious to keep ordinary light poles off the streets. He was assured that his request would be given consideration along with other sections of the city when the ornamental light subject is taken up again. The matter of ornamental lights was referred back to the C. of C. with suggestions that petitions be secured from all property owners desirous of the ornamental lights. Council seemed to be of the opinion that the policy should be changed to eliminate the city's paying one-fourth the initial cost of ornamental lights on the theory the city as paying enough by supplying the juice and installing broken poles and globes. It was definitely decided that any further improvements of this kind will be done in assessment district rather than by petition. This applies to setting back buildings, etc. Some have not yet paid their share of the original ornamental light system, and if we had proceeded by assessment district the Dreyfus-bldg., and others wouldn't be sticking out in the street," said Mayor Stark. City Manager O E. Steward was instructed to proceed with preliminaries to paying Adele-st between Los Angeles and Claudina-sts, north of the George Dunton garage. Council discussed the advisibility of procuring a steam roller. City Manager tSeward gave it as his opinion that nothing the city could procure would be a greater help to keeping up street work. The other alternate is a tractor and roller separately. Appointments of deputy marshals was confirmed by council, this having been overlooked previously. HUNTINGTON BEACH MAN HEADS VETS. 38 CARS OF ORANGES SHIPPED Anaheim District Also Sends Out Five Carloads of Tomatoes Orange shipments from the Anaheim district held up well this week, with 37 to 39 cars, depending upon today's total. Five carloads of tomatoes were shipped by the Randolph Marketing Company, which announced today that its orange shipments from now on would average only about a car per week. The concern expects to ship tomatoes until Jan. 1, if the weather is good. The car situation is better, but not all it should be. Two local associations today obtained three refrigerator cars each from the So. Pac., but this number only evening up previous shortages. Another will be obliged tomorrow to haul a carload of fruit at Fullerton and ship it over the Santa Fe. There is still considerable congestion on the railways, but there are said to be no embargoes whatever into New York. The auction centers are the bright spots in the valencia oranges situation. The demand in the auctions is steady with a stranger tone noted as the supply of fresh summer fruits decrease. In the private sale markets there is not much life as far as valencias are concerned. Prices are generally from 25 to 75 cents per box lower than the auctions. The bulk of the valencia shipments are therefore diverted to the auctions. F. o. b. quotations are on a basis of $8 to $9 per box according to sizes and district. The condition of the growing crop of oranges is estimated about 58 per cent of normal as compared with 86 per cent at this time last season. New estimates for San Bernardino-co districts for oranges are as follows: Upland district, 90 per cent; East Highland district for probation made on behalf of Spencer by Deputy Public Defender Robert H. Scott was based on the fact that Spencer was not the leader in the burglary in which the safe was stolen and also because of his youth. GERMAN ASSAULT IS LEIPZIG, Oct. 7.

Therefore to include necessary factors, the t Manager iteward gave it as his opinion that nothing the city could procure would be a greater help to keeping up street work.

Turner was endeavoring to escape striking an Overland car driven by M. McCarrom of Fullerton. No one was reported injured.

C. OF C. STATEMENT ON BOND ELECTION Some misunderstanding seems to exist in the public mind regarding the need for $40,000 bonds for completion of the city hall, according to the C. of C. The original bond issue gave the city trustee $75,000 with which to construct a city hall which was to be built along plans and specifications already in hand, calling for a frame and stucco building. The swift period of growth of Anaheim during the last two years confronted the city trustees with a need for nearly half again as much space as was included in the plans mentioned. The old pligns did not cover the cost of a basement, a large space for the building department, then not in existence, and adequate room for the C. of C. and American Legion. Therefore, to include all the vitally necessary factors, the trustees entered into agreement with the successful bid. MURDERER'S BODY GIVEN TO MEDICS The body of Narcisco Cisneros, Mexican hung Sept. 22 at San Quentin for the murder of Camilla Moreno and Emiterio Escobedo at the sugar factory colony, was turned over to the medical college of the Univ. of Cal. at Berkeley for dissection, according to a letter from an Anaheim boy, student at Berkeley, to his mother. Mrs. Cisneros had attempted to recover the body of her husband, but, according to report, had been informed by prison officials that "the cost of disinterring the remains and shipping them to Anaheim would doubtless be beyond her slight means." The letter from the Anaheim boy, who has a chum studying medicine, says: "The Mexican from Anaheim who was hung at San Quentin now rests at the dissecting room at the medical college. Twenty-two minutes after he walked onto the platform or just seven minutes after he was cut down they had removed some glands con- DRUG CLERK HURT BY HOLD-UP MAN LQS ANGELES, Oct. 7.—Odom, 24, a drug clerk, was probably fatally injured when shot by a hold-up man who attempted to loot the J. J. Freeman drug store at Tenth-st and Grand-ave today. The robber ordered Odom to throw up his hand but the clerk started to give battle and was shot through the groin. The bandit escaped. WET' SHIPS PEEVED OVER LIQUOR RULING NEW YORK, Oct. 7.—The retaliation of the foreign shipping companies against the new United States ruling agent liquor on ships entering the American 3-mile zone came today. The foreign companies threatened to cut out all United States ports and divert all of their business to Canada. On the Atlantic side they would send all of their vessels into the mouth of the St. Lawrence river or to other available Canadian ports and on the Pacific coast they would cut out Seattle Portland, San Francisco and Los Angeles harbors and direct all ships to British Columbia. France Takes Place Against Turkey built along plans and specifications already in hand; calling for a frame and stucco building. The swift period of growth of Anaheim during the last two years confronted the city trustees with a need for nearly half again as much space as was included in the plans mentioned. The old plains did not cover the cost of a basement, a large space for the building department, then not in existence, and adequate room for the C. of C. and American Legion. Therefore, to include all the vitally necessary factors, the trustees entered into contract with the successful bidders, Beverly K. Wilson, for construction of a city hall at cost $115,000, including wiring, hardware, light fixtures, architect's fees, etc. As this amount ran to $40,000 over the estimate of two years ago the city is forced to raise that amount either by bond issue or from the tax roll. It was the wish of a large body of tax payers that the $40,000 should be included in the bond issue for the completion of the park plans and the construction of necessary street improvements, and a meeting of directors of Anaheim C. of C. with other tax payers and the city council made it plain that the burden should not fall immediately upon the local tax payer, but should be placed on the shoulders of the coming generation who would enjoy the finished city park and city hall for many years to come. FINDS BODY IN ALLEY CHICAGO, Oct. 7.—Another grew some murder mystery was added to the list of those which fill the pages of Chicago's criminal records when the body of George W. Heller•28, was found today in an alley with the rain beating down upon it. He had been not five times thru the chest and midmen. OILMAN'S HAND INJURED Fred Helle of Pittsela, employee of the Standard Oil Co., was in the local Sanitarium with morning suffering from minor injuries in the hand. Other new patients at the Sanitarium include: Mrs. P. L. Cooper, Anaheim; and Kent Garner, Fullerton. 'FATHER' OF SLOGAN DEAD DEVILS LAKE N. D., Oct. 7.—N. P. Lindburg floridt, who was killed at Pean, N. D., when his automobile leaped over any embankment, was credited with creation of the slogan, "Say it with flowers." J. E. Rodden, Insurance, Phone 71 DATE WITH WIDOW ALSO WITH DEATH PHOENIX, Ariz., Oct. 7.—"So long I'm going to keep a date with a 'widow.'" Acquaintances of Guy N. Dernier say that he seemed intuitively to know when he met a woman whether her name would later occupy a place in what is now being referred to as "Dernier's harom book." But the Los Angeles man's intuition did not forewarn him, when he spoke the foregoing words to a friend on the main street of Phoenix, that the "widow" who had telephoned him an invitation to come at once to her home was deliberately decoying him to his death. FACISTI THREATENS TO SEIZE ROME MILAN, Oct. 7.—The Fascisti or extreme Nationalist faction composed of former soldiers, today threatened to seize Rome. The cabinet is considering the use of armed forces against the Fascisti. The leaders of the Fascisti have issued a proclamation designating Oct. 22 as the date for the beginning of concentration "for the occupation of Rome." A dispatch from Rome quoted Premier Rasta as saying he would willingly resign to give the Fascisti a place in a new coalition ministry. PROCLAIMS 'ROOSEVELT DAY' SACRAMENTO, Oct. 7.—The late Col. Theodore Roosevelt was recalled to memory by Governor Stephens today in a proclamation declaring Oct. 27 to be "Roosevelt Day." France Takes Place Against Turkey PARIS, Oct. 7.—France, backed Great Britain against the Turks today.

The Greeks, it has been decided here must start immediately the evacuation of Thrace. The allies will enter on the hells of the departing Greeks. One month after the latter are completely out the Turks may come in and set up a civil administration. Their armies may not enter Thrace nor cross the straits. 'LITTLE PHIL' MADE HOSPITAL CAPTIVE LOS ANGELES, Oct. 7.—"Little Phil" Alguin, wanted here for the murder of Detective Sergeant John J.

THE THERMOMETER Maximum 71½ at 2 p.m. Minimum 54½ at 5 a.m. NATIONALS BUNCH HITS AND TAKE GAME 4 TO 3 POLO GROUNDS, New York, Oct. 7.—The Giants continued their winning streak today by coming up from behind and defeating the Yanks 4 to 3. Nothing seems to stop the National League champs. It rained in torrents thruout most of the game, but neither team wanted to call the contest. Ward, who was taken out yesterday for a pinch-hitter, hit his second home run of the series today. He drove the ball into the bleachers. Mays started for the Yanks, but was replaced by Jones. McQuillen went the route for the Giants. It was a dreary sight as fans waited with umbrellas and raincoats at the entrances to the grounds, but the hot-dog and coffee vendors reaped a large harvest. Pledge to Meet in 2000 in S. F. Hotel OAKLAND, Cal., Oct. 7.—Seventy residents of this city have signed a pledge that they will attend a banquet of the Indefinite Physical society at the Palace hotel, San Francisco, in the year 2000. A room has been reserved Ward, who was taken out yesterday for a pinch-hitter, hit his second home run of the series today. He drove the ball into the bleachers. Mays started for the Yanks, but was replaced by Jones. McQuillen went the route for the Giants. It was a dreary sight as fans waited with umbrellas and raincoats at the entrances to the grounds, but the hot-dog and coffee vendors reaped a large harvest. The officials of the club took every precaution to have the grounds in condition to play in spite of the showers. Every night during the series the tarpaulin has been stretched and groundkeepers have been on the job anticipating wet weather. At the start of the series it was freely admitted that the Yankees had all the better of the pitching, but any manager with two games to his credit when but four are needed to win has a mighty advantage when it comes to jockeying with a pitching staff. Bettors on the series are running around in circles. The Yankees entered the series 10 to 6 favorites and the odds then switched to 10 to 8 at the start of the first game. With the first game on ice the Giants switched to 10 to 8 favorites, and with the playing of the tie game, in which the Yankees made a great fight and looked almost sure of winning if the game had been allowed to continue the betting, switched to even money. Yesterday's Giant victory, threw the dope into the air again and today the Giants were 10 to 6 favorites, with little Yankee backing in sight. In any series some bettors make a practice of picking a club for the first game and then if defeated double on the second. Such bettors received the shock of their lives but many are still determined to play the system. The biggest shock baseball gamblers ever received was in 1914, when the Boston Graves took four in a row from the Philadelphia Athletics and smashed every betting system ever applied to baseball. Those who have been pulling for the Yankees to win and who figure baseball closely believe that the postponement of a game or two is Yanks' only hope of winning the series. YOU CAN'T ALWAYS TELL ABOUT SERIES By Sargum Sprout The first three games of the world's series are out of the way. The first and third games go to the Giants, the second is a try not count in the win and last column but it is an advantage for the Yankees. Pledge to Meet in 2000 in S. F. Hotel OAKLAND, Cal., Oct. 7.—Seventy residents of this city have signed a pledge that they will attend a banquet of the Indefinite Physical society at the Palace hotel, San Francisco, in the year 2000. A room has been reserved for that date. D. W. Starrett, president of the organization, aged 62, has the appearance of a man 20 years younger. He declares that by using his system any one can live indefinitely. Those signing the pledge have been practicing his methods of prolonging life for several months. FIND FAMILY MISSING FRIDAY Mrs. Gus Morse and her three children of Santa Ana were found late yesterday on the beach near Long Beach, after being abducted from home by Gus Morse, who was crazy, apparently from senaces with mediums and like him. Morse and his wife had separated and he was living in Long Beach. The wife and children lived at 807 West Fifth street, Santa Ana. J. H. Holt found the latter after a prolonged search by him and the Long Beach and Santa Ana police. According to Holt, Morse, who lives in the same house as Mrs. Morse and the children drove up to the place and ordered his wife and children into the car he was driving. In fear of their lives they complied. The whereabouts of Morse have not been discovered, and it is feared he may have committed suicide. MAN, 84, BREAKS 490 MILE HIKING MARK NEW YORK, Oct. 7.—Although 84 years old, Edward Payson Weston walked the 490 miles between Buffalo and this city easily, clipping 21 hours off the schedule he had set for himself. REPORT TO POLICE OF TWO CRASHES YOU CAN'T ALWAYS TELL ABOUT SERIES By Sargum Sprout The first three games of the world's series are out of the way. The first and third games go to the giants, the second is not count in the win and last column but it is an advantage for the Yanks if their pitching staff is the stronger. Every game is a pull on the Giants pitching strength and the games will aid the Yanks. But, and least big word in baseball, Medrawn a second string pitching shift may produce a pitcher that is a world series wonder. Remember the series of 1906 when the White Sox looked nopelessly outclassed by the Cubs. The Sox through an injury were forced to use an unknown at third. This unknown, through his great hitting and marvelous fielding won the series for the Sox. He was a dismal failure the next season. World series are peculiar, in that you can not figure players till after they have gone through such a series. A player may play a wonderful game all season and fillver in the world-classic or he may be a very poor player and star. You can not figure any man that has not been through the mill. About the most interesting thing to this series is watching the doings of the Meusel brothers, both of whom graduated from Los Angeles teams. Irish has made his hits count the most. The Giants got the breaks in the first game and the Yanks in the second. It's a nip and tuck affair. Shawkey went so well after the first two innings that it would appear as if the Giants would be unable to repeat against him. McGraw seems to have played his best cards, but you never can tell. Anyway, one Anaheim fan will have to go a whole month without shoving if the Yanks don't win the next game and he 'is a young man and has a "dear" lady friend who objects to unshaven escorts. ASKS OWN ARREST SACRAMENTO, Oct. 7.—A young man who speaks Latin as well as mathematics has asked the Sheriff here to arrest him until he recovers his memory. He thinks he might have been an officer in the military service.
