BILL Knott has his first deputy exalted assistant, Mation Pickle, on needles and pins those days. It seems Marion is one of those lucky guys whose wife got it into her head to go back to Colorado and visit mother for a month. Marion proceeded to make the most of the opportunity. You know how it is: "While the cat's away, the mice will play." Bill professes to know a few things that would be of interest to Friend Wife. Result: a series of conferences as prolonged as those preceding the Grand Fourth of July Bust at Shelby. According to latest reports, Marion has agreed to work two weeks for nothing if Bill will be mum. On the other hand, Bill, as bloodthirsty as Jack Kearna, is holding out for three weeks free service. All the while the train from Colorado is speeding on. 2 ORANGE Fail To Raise 4 KILLED BY FIRST U. P. PASSENGER Tragic Accident Marks Opening of Los Angeles and Anaheim Service.

The opening of the Union Pacific's passenger service yesterday between Anaheim and Los Angeles was marked by an accident in which four persons lost their lives. The dead are: Mr. and Mrs. Frank Morgan of 236 North Newlin-ave, Whittier; and Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Morgan of 1554 West Elmwood-ave, Eagle Rock, son and daughter-in-law of the Whittier couple. Miss Dorothy Morgan, 15-year old daughter of the Frank Morgana, was seriously hurt, but is expected to survive. The gasoline car struck the Morgan auto at the Hadley-st crossing in Whittier at 2:10 p.m. The car was the one which leaves Los Angeles at 1:15 p.m. The Morgans occupied a light sedan. Apparently the driver did not notice the wig-wag nor hear the bell. The railway car struck the auto square on the side and carried it for 20 or 25 yards. The younger couple died at the Murphy Memorial Hospital. Constable R. B. Way of Los Angeles-co and Union Pacific officials investigated. The latter cleared the train crew of blame. An inquest, however, will be held as a matter of course this week. The driver of a machine in the rear of the Morgans' car stopped his machine in time.

He Faleon, Idaho, and f an hour rode the cab that pulled his train to cific coast, chatting with scenery along the route.

The President left Avery and climbed to mountain to visit the station here. The Harding special tern Montana and up day making scheduled Spokane.

SPOKANE, Wash., multuous welcome President Harding up here this afternoon. A crowd of thousands around the St. Paul the Harding special pu p.m. and welcomed tive on his first trip Washington. The reception comm ed by Governor Hart, Mayor Fleming and o city officials." Miss THERE has been considerable discussion of 12-story buildings in Anaheim recently. Now comes Mrs. Powell of the city building inspectors' office with this: "What to know how to get a 12-story building for Anaheim?" "All right, I'll bite," I says. "What's the answer." "Get C. C. Chapman to put up a 11-story building in Fullerton and Sam Kraemer will put up your 12-story for you in Anaheim." About right at that. ONCE in a while they get up a regular moving picture, "Down to the Sea in Ships" is such. When that old bull whale starts toward the boatload of fishermen, you know something bound to bump and wonder just how cold the water is. Manager F. J. Murray of the United Theater is to be congratulated for having brot this genuine spectacle to Anaheim. TED Rousseau's brother-in-law, Art Steward, of Santa Paula, is visiting him for a few days. Ted knows his in-law pretty well. He has also heard of Art Steward of Bill Goodrum's Anaheim Auto Co. So Ted arranged a meeting of the pair. "They're both mats about Buicks and I just wanted to see who excelled at tossing the bull," says Ted. JAY Sebastian was back at his desk today after two weeks at Big Bear with some big yarns about little fish. That's the best I can say for any fish stories brot down from Big Bear without the fish to back 'em up. Incidentally, Jay and his friend Will were going to graduate having a boat on their vacation in Summer. They ordered one of the vast-pocket motors you fasten on the rear of a scooter. They do say it saves a lot of blisters from rowing a boat. Apparently a lot of other folks had the same inspiration and delivery of the motor was delapied. Brother Will says magnanimously: "Jay, you're all tired out; you take your vacation first this year." So Jay did, never realizing what that magnanimity meant until he had to doctor a crop of blisters. Will takes his vacation a little later—as soon as the Evinrude arrives. S. Yzarr, arrested on the charge of being drunk and carrying concealed weapons, was released on bail of $40. Fullerton police also arrested N. Dadoy, J. Sandoval, A. Hernandez and Joe Ayala on the charge of transportating liquor. They were released on a joint bail of $150. G. W. Patterson was picked up on the charge of contributing to the delinquency of an 11-year-old girl, and was taken to the county jail at Santa Ana. A woman connected in the case was also taken to the county jail. The girl, and likewise a little boy who also was implicated are now living in Fullerton.

(By international News Service) GREAT FALLS, Mont., July 2.—The men who tried to raise the final $100,000 for Jack Dempsey's third payment have failed. PROMISES, PRESENTS, JEWEL LURED WIFE FROM HOME, HARDING RIDES FOR HOUR IN ENGINE CAB By GEORGE H HOLMES I. N. S. Staff Correspondent AVERY, Idaho, July 2.—President Harding became the engineer of his own train today. He arose early at Falcon, Idaho, and for more than an hour rode the cab of the engine that pulled his train toward the Pacific coast, chatting with the train crew and viewing the magnificent scenery along the route. The President, decended at Avery, Idaho, somewhat grimy and the large crowd that had gathered there to greet him failed to recognize in the dusty man with a cap pulled down over his eyes, the chief executive of the nation. The President left his train at Avery and climbed the side of a mountain to visit the forest ranger station here. The Harding special ran thru western Montana and upper Idaho today making scheduled time toward Spokane. At Avery the President shook hands with most of the populace and inspected a forest pack train that was just starting into the woods on a long trek. A ten minute stop was made at St. Maries where a large crowd had gathered to greet the President. SPOKANE, Wash., July 2.—A multinuous welcome was awarded President Harding upon his arrival here this afternoon.

(By international News Service) GREAT FALLS, Mont., July 2.—The men who tried to raise the final $100,000 for Jack Dempsey's third payment have failed. This statement was made at 2:45 this afternoon by J. E. Lane, trustee for the committee which was empowered by the original promoters to try to float loans for the final payment to the world's champion. Whether the fight will be held July 4 or at some later date or not at all is now a question which only the promoters—Loy Molumby, Mayor Jim Johnson and Mike Collins—can answer. And Molumby wheeled asked said: "I don't know anything about it." Unless a miracle is wrought during the balance of the day, the onagain off-again Dempsey-Gibbons fight will not be fought in Shelby on July 4. Jack Kearns alone can save the situation by agreeing to send Dempsey into the ring for a sum less than $310,000, and Kearns is not in a savious mood. George H. Stanton, banker, and legal adviser for the promoters, attended a conference which had invited Kearns. After it was over Stanton declared: "The fight is off, unless something like a miracle happens around here." Immediately afterward Stanton went to the Commercial Club, local sales agent for the Shelby fight tickets, and ordered that no more pasteboards be sold. It was understood a new crisis has been precipitated by the fact that many of the $5000 loans did not materialize. Men throut Montana, upon whom Stanton had counted to ship along $5000 each, changed their minds over Sunday. Instead of having the $100,000 available this morning only about $40,000 was on hand. Then Shelby was secured on long distance telephone to find out how sales there were progressing. Up to noon only about $5000 had been taken in. J. E. Lane, trustee for the promoters, was hopeful that the sum from ticket sales by that time would reach at least $40,000. Then he sought Kearns and explained that the best the promoters could do was to pay him in the neighborhood of $45,000 or $50,000 today and have him gamble on the chance of getting the rest thru receipts on Tuesday and Wednesday. Kearns rejected the proposition and is said to have issued his ultimatum that "no money by midnight—no fight on the Fourth."

SPOKANE, Wash., July 2.—A multuous welcome was accorded President Harding upon his arrival here this afternoon. A crowd of thousands congregated around the St. Paul station when the Harding special pulled in at 2:15 p.m. and welcomed the chief executive on his first trip into the state Washington. The reception committee was headed by Governor Hart, Senator Dill, Mayor Fleming and other state and city officials. "Miss Spokane," presented the President with the freedom of the city and "Miss Columbia" presented Mrs. Harding with a bouquet of flowers. From the train the president was taken on a two-hour motor drive about the city and Spokane valley, with an inspection of the proposed irrigation project. After the drive he went to the Davenport Hotel where a general reception was held and a private moving picture of the Columbia Basin project exhibited for the President's benefit. "WILD MAN" HALTS COURT ACTION TODAY LOS ANGELES, July 2.—Shouting and snarling like a dog as wild eyes glared behind a three weeks' growth of beard, J. W. Allen, accused with W. R. Crise of the "diamond murder" of Nicholas Dabelich, Oakland cafe proprietor, created a sensation in court today when he appeared for trial. Owing to the inability of the authorities to quiet his shouting, the trial was deferred until tomorrow. When Allen was brought into court, he leered at Judge Reeve and snarled: "Gag me, go ahead and put a gag in!" Testimony that Allen was feigning insanity was given by county hospital physicians, who have observed him in the psychopathic ward. MENACING OIL FIRE (By International News Service) LOS ANGELES, July 2.—Threatening other oil wells in the vicinity, fire broke out today at an oil well owned by the Wilshire Oil Co., near Wilshire-blvd. and Fairfax-ave., according to reports received at Central police station. J. E. Lane, trustee for the promoters, was hopeful that the sum from ticket sales by that time would reach at least $40,000. Then he sought Kearns and explained that the best the promoters could do was to pay him in the neighborhood of $45,000 or $50,000 today and have him gamble on the chance of getting the rest thru receipts on Tuesday and Wednesday. Kearns rejected the proposition and is said to have issued his ultimatum that "no money by midnight—no fight on the Fourth." Stanton and Lane, who have fought so vallantly to get the needed money, came out of their final conference gloomy and depressed—and disgusted in addition. Lane, in making his statement to the press explained: "This committee felt at the outset that it could raise the money for the third Dempsey payment. On Saturday we had enough cash in hand and plied to insure the belief that the fight was a certainty. But today we find that many men who promised to loan $5,000 changed their minds. That left us without sufficient money to pay Dempsey. "I want to have it understood that our failure does not mean that the flight will not be held. Whether it is to bestaged or not is a matter the original promoters are to decide. Our function ends with the report that we could not raise the money." Afterward Jack Kearns, appealed to for a statement, said: "No dough, no fight."
