EVANGELIST BEGINS REVIVAL AT GREAT TABERNACLE SUNDAY Mrs. Lucie Mize, advance worker of the Vawter Evangelistic party, arrived in the city yesterday to gr COUNTY ENGINEERS HOLD CONFERENCE IN SAN FRANCISCO EVANGELIST BEGINS REVIVAL AT GREAT TABERNACLE SUNDAY Mrs. Lucie Mize, advance worker of the Vawter Evangelistic party, arrived in the city yesterday to arrange the preliminary work of the meeting. Mrs. Mize has the direct supervision of the personal work and is working out an organization that will prove very effective. She has been with the Vawter Party seven years, understands her work thoroughly and knows how to do it efficiently. She holds the special meetings for women and girls and conducts the Bible crises. Mrs. Mize is a graduate of Transylvania University, Lexington, Ky. She married while in college but her husband, a minister, died a year after they left school and since she has been doing this christian work. The other three members of the party arrived today, Miss Clarkle Reaves arriving in the morning, the evangelist, C. R. L. Vawter, and song director, F. R. Brotherton, arriving in the afternoon. C. R. L. Vawter, of Enid, Okla., is one of the best known evangelists. For 17 years he has been holding meetings all over the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. He has had as many as 500 converts in a single church meeting. Evangelist Vawter impresses himself upon the audience as a speaker of power. He employs many apt illustrations which aid materially in making his statements clear and convincing. Especially does he appeal to men because of his logical reasoning powers. Throughout his sermons his Irish wit is in evidence. Dr. Vawter does not claim to be an orator but preaches the plain Bible sermons in an interesting way. F. R. Brotherton is said to be an excellent chorus director. He will have a large chorus here and has issued the statement that every one who cares to sing will be welcomed. Mr. Brotherton not only directs the music but is a very fine soloist and will be heard from time to time. He has a unique way of advertising by making very beautiful announcements of the meeting with an air brush. Mr. Brotherton has been in the party off and on for several years. Miss Clarkle Reaves of Kentucky is a very fine soloist. She has a beautiful voice, trained by some of the best teachers. Miss Reaves was leader of song before joining the Vawter party three years ago during a meeting in Washington D.C. Her annunciation is perfect as she sings the gospel message. Miss Reaves is secretary and a good personal worker. Believe Many Doe in Organge-Co. Afflicted With Rabies The status of rabies in Orange-co and the best means of eradicating it were discussed at length today in superior court chambers by Dr. W. Leland Mitchell, County Health Officer, before a county-wide gathering of City Marshals, Health officers, constables and the forces of the district attorney's and sheriff's offices this afternoon. Mitchell wishes all pet dogs to be given a dog vaccine which acts as a preventive. He has not yet taken stops to obtain a supply of it for the county. The county quarantine established a few months ago by Dr. Walter M. Dickle, secretary of the State Board of Health, never has been enforced throut the county, according to Mitchell, because there never before been a full-time county health officer. During the past year rabies has been on the increase in the county, which stood fifth among the counties of the state in number of dogs having the disease. There were no human cases in the year. Last week the brains of three dogs examined showed positive rabies germs. It is uncertain how many cases of dog rabies there are in the county, but it is suspected there are many, said Mitchell. The county health officer explained to his hearers the Pasteur prophylactic, a preventive. This will not cure the disease, after it has shown symptoms, and in fact there is no cure. Symptoms appear within two weeks or, in rare cases, not for a year. Mitchell urged the necessity of confining all dogs in kennels or paddocks until further notice. Sheriff Sam Jernigan used the occasion to urge the need of co-operation among arresting officers in enforcing the Wright act, which he said had imposed much extra work on county officials. He estimated privately that if the city or town officials in each case looked after its own situation as far as possible, the law could be enforced. District Attorney A. P. Nelson explained the law on the subject, particularly the recent state quarantine. NUMEROUS MINOR MOTOR ACCIDENTS An accident occurred this morning on So. Los Angeles-at near the city marshal's office when the city Ford driven by O. B. Baxter was run into as it was backing out from the curb by a Ford owned by W. Pottes.

The trouble began when the French military authorities deported 10 German officials from Treves in reprisal for the citizens' attitude of defiance. Mobs formed in the streets and the French were attacked. To rescue some French soldiers, in a street battle, colonial troops were forced to charge the crowd. Treves and Kreuzanach are at the extreme southern end of the German territory taken over by the allies after the armistice. It is quite distant from the Ruhr and Westphaliian industrial districts seized by the French a fortnight ago. A state of siege which is approximate to martial law, has been prevailing in the newly occupied zones ever since the French went in. The communist newspaper Humanite is agitating for the Railway Men's union to protest against mobilization of rail employees for duty in the occupied territory. According to press estimates, between 4000 and 5000 French railroad workers have already been sent into the Ruhr for duty upon German railroads. They are taking the place of German workmen who went on strike in protest, against the French seizures. Twenty-five French officers of rank and 150 petty officers are on their way from Brest to the Ruhr to take command of the boats and barges on the River and canals that run through the German coal fields.

Rizzo has vowed he'll never be taken JUSTICE J. B. COX FAVORS VERDICT BY 75 PERCENT. JURY The three routns jury verdict is favored by Justice J. B. Cox even in cases involving the death penalty. The Santa Ana justice called attention to the fact, not hitherto announced that the second jury trial of Pete Arvisu and Albert Rizzo, charged with assault with attempt to commit burglary, might have shown another disagreement because of one juror who for a long while refused even to cast his vote. Arvisu and Rizzo entered Tony's cafe, Santa Ana, on Nov. 17 and, while attempting to rob the place, shot Pablo Sanchez, a dishwasher, wounding him lightly. Justice Cox also declared that if San Clemente or some other island off the coast were taken over and used as a penal colony for bootleggers, their operations could be ended. Some day, said the justice, the people are going to rise and give those fellows who don't care a white about taking human life what is coming to them.
