ONLY 21 BUT HAS 3 LIVING HUSBANDS Twenty-one and with three husbands living. This is the situation in which Mrs. Nell Ruth Collins the first wife of the professional ball player, finds herself, it is revealed with announcement by the girl that she will sue Collins for bigamy. Collins was married a few weeks ago to Miss Dorothy Martinez, pretty Arlington girl, by Justice J. B. Cox of Santa Ana. The first Mrs. Collins at 16 married Lee Cadwell at San Diego in 1918. After a few weeks she left him and later learned he had begun divorce proceedings. Jack Eddy was her second venture. She left him when she had become tired of supporting him, and started divorce proceedings. At the same time Eddy's parents, she declares, brought annulment proceedings on the ground that both were too young to be married. Collins was her third attempt. But she learned that the Eddy annulment proceedings had been dropped and that Cadwell had not pressed his divorce action. Then she went home to mother, and her father secured freedom from the first two mates. She remarried Collins. Now the Martines girl says she'll never give Collins up, even though he was charged with issuing worthless checks. BOY SCOUTS HOLD BURLESQUE TRIAL At a burlesque trial last evening held by Troop Two, Boys Scouts of St Catherine's school, Abraham Ayala was put on condition for a week and George Russek was sentenced to read only one page of the Examiner instead of his usual two, for the next few days. Simon Russek, was defense attorney for Joseph Bablick, made a terrible mess of his case, when his client was sentenced to die at sunrise this morning, and in attempting to change the sentence the attorney was sentenced to death at sunset tonight. But the sun failed to shine this morning, saving Joseph's life, and the lawyer will hide SAVED GERMAN WHO FELL UNDER TRAIN; IS GIVEN CHATEAU Major J.C. Thornton (By International News Service) VANCOUVER, B. C., April 12—Major J. C. Thornton, who was taken prisoner while serving with the Canadian army in the World War and escaped disguised as a widow in deep mourning, has by a stroke of fate become a German landlord. Major Thornton, while a prisoner, saved from death a lad who was almost under the wheels of a train in Leipzig Station. He forgot the incident. A few days ago, however, Major Thornton, who is a reality and financial man, in business here, received a letter from a firm of German solicitors advising him that the aged German whose grandson he held by Troop Two, Boys Scouts of St Catherine's school, Abraham Ayala was put on condition for a week and George Russek was sentenced to read only one page of the Examiner instead of his usual two, for the next few days. Simon Russek, for the next few days, was defense attorney for Joseph Bablick, made a terrible mess of his case, when his client was sentenced to die at sunrise this morning, and in attempting to change the sentence the attorney was sentenced to death at sunset tonight. But the sun failed to shine this morning, saving Joseph's life, and the lawyer will hide tonight until after the sun goes down. John Shea was the presiding judge George Russek the district attorney and Joseph Tecktonious, Johnnie Escoveda and three other boys formed a jury of five. New members will be taken in at the next meeting, and badges will be presented. MARRIED MAN SHOT WITH OTHER WOMAN (L. N. E. Staff Correspondent) LOS ANGELES, April 12—Police today hunted the mysterious "badge bandit" who last night perhaps fatally wounded Charles Suits. Officers said Suits admitted his wife is in a delicate condition. At the time of the shooting Suits was in company with Miss Pattle Campbell in an auto at Main and 120th streets, police said. Suits said the shooting followed remarks by the bandit about his presence with "another woman." WAHLBERG ON RADIO Farm Advisor Harold E. Wahlberg will give a talk on agriculture in So. Calif. tonight over the Central Radio Service. NOT MONOPOLISTIC (By International News Service) WASHINGTON, April 12.—There is nothing monopolistic in concessions secured from Turkish nationalists by the Chester Syndicate in the opinion of this government, and the diplomatic assistance of the United States consequently will be available to protect the fruits of this American enterprise against the counter claims of British and French interests it was stated officially here today. SUGAR JUMPS 15c SAN FRANCISCO, April 12.—Following sharp increase in raw sugar prices on the New York market, local refiners today announced a new jump of 15c per hundred effective tomorrow.

Center St. Anahe NOTED NOVEL MADE INTO GREAT FILM Life as it was in 1870 in the mining country in North England provides a new atmosphere for Priscella Dean's stellar appearance in "The Flame of Life" at the United theater where it opened an engagement of three days last night. A simple but gripping story of very plain people is the basis of this Hobart Henley Universal Jewel production. It was adapted from one of Frances Hodgson Burnett's famous novels. Hobart Henley shows a master himself a master of the delicate touches of real human characterizations in the manner in which he guided the filming This picture is one of the finest works Mr. Henley has made and it will rank high with the year's screen offerings. Robert Ellis appears as a man of higher caste than the heroine. His is an uplifting hand, helping the girl of the mines to gain her heritage of happiness and prosperity. Wallace Beery's peculiar ability to be "a hundred percent villainous" is demonstrated in the role of the brutal father, untouched by any sympathetic kindness. FANCY PETTICOATS POPULAR THIS YEAR (I. N. S. Staff Correspondent) LONDON, April 12.—Petticoats, of many designs and hues, are fashionable again. They are not, however, of the rustling and befilled wonders of Victorian days, but are so soft and slender that they can be drawn through the proverbial ring. For many years, with skirts tight and short, petticoats were out of fashion. This season they re-appear in the glory of silk brocades, flowered crepe-de-chine and jazz satins. Many are in bright colors, have bocies, and might well be mistaken for simple evening frocks. The main feature seems to be, PARAGRAPHS (By Robert Quillen) Happy is the bride the sun shines on; happy is the groom the moon shine's on. Another good way to save is to make more money than you can conveniently spend. We pay taxes to support job holders to see that we pay taxes to support job holders. No doubt Heinle wonders at times what fool spelling authority put rest in resituation. Philosophy is the art of thinking how much worse off you would be if you got what you deserve. Correct this sentence: "The doors of this sedan have patent catches," said the salesman, and they never fail to rattle. Another good memory test is trying to remember whether and why famous women have husbands. Bok's career proves that any Dutch boy can make a great success in America if he is a world-beater. Spring drives are impressive, of course, but we wish the mercury would learn to consolidate its advances. If you thing the day of miracles is gone, too "movies" to a little girl who is too sick to do her plano practice. As a man of promoting Anglo American understanding, nothing else could serve so well as a common slanguage. If Uncle Sam's job holders were placed end to end, it would not serve any purpose except that of making both ends meet. HARLAN PORTRAYS DISSOLUTE YOUTH KENNETH HARLAN IN THE BEAUTIFUL AND DAMNED WARNER BROS. PRODUCTION There is probably no screen actor better qualified to reveal the true and outs of New York's dazzling night life, and the fast pace of the Broadway cabarets, than Kenneth Harlan, born and bred in that city of the gay white lights that attract thousands. In "The Beautiful and Damned" the screen adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's popular novel, to be shown at the California Theatre glimming tomorrow with Marie Prevost as its star, Harlan plays the part of young Anthony Patch, a fine representative of the class that "toll not—neither do they spin." "Even before I became an actor," Herlan says, "I knew my New York as only those who love and are part of it." BRIDAL PAIR LEAVE FOR EASTERN HOME (By International News Service) ST. CHARLES, Ill., April 12—Mrs. Lester Norris, who was Miss Dellora Angell, heiress to John W. Gates' $38,000,000, is speeding here today from her Pasadena winter home on a special train with her husband of less than a month to take possession of a $50 a month flat on Main-st. here. For public lavatories a machine has been invented from which soap is dispensed in sheet form. STOP COUGH FOLLOWING PLU Stop coughs resulting from Flu, Gripe, Whooping Cough, Asthma and Bronchitis with Foley's Honey and Tar. "The Flu left me with a severe cough which was quickly relieved with Foley's Honey and Tar." writes Mrs. K. D. Drake, Childs Md. A few cents worth of Volunteer's money and Tar will offset serious diseases by checking your coughs and colds, saving you many dollars. Contains no opiates—ingredients printed on wrapper. Insist upon Foley's. Refuse substitutes—Heying's Pharmacy. If you thing the day of miracles is gone, too "movies" to a little girl who is too sick to do her piano practice. As a man of promoting Anglo American understanding, nothing else could serve so well as a common slangage. If Uncle Sam's job holders were placed end to end, it would not serve any purpose except that of making both ends meet. The theory that women can stand more pain than men became popular long before shaving was in vogue. An experienced driver is one who can tell in an emergency whether that sound is his brakes squeaking or his wife squealing. Great Guns! Mr. Hughes won't recognize Russia, and it may be ages before we have another Secretary of State with whiskers. In the old days a girl was grown before she came out, but now by the time she is grown she is accustomed to staying out. After fourteen hours a day, a wife may be excused for smiling a little when her husband speaks of "giving her money." April 14, 1902 21 Years Agol Vital statistics of business show that only a very small percentage of all new business ventures survive after the fifth year. This Company has endured for 21 years, and just now is celebrating a growth and expansion that has never been paralleled in our lines of mercantile pursuit. From one small store in 1902, in seven years it had expanded to 7 stores. Another seven years saw its chain increased to 71 links, and today—seven years more—there are 371 Department Stores rendering service to an appreciative public in 29 States. April 14th, 1921—our birthday! Naturally, we look back with pride and ahead with confidence. JCP 225 W.
