TOWN IN REVIEW
BY OLD TIMER
THE district manager of the Auto Club of Se. Cal., Paul V. Allen, was considerably surprised one day when a man who had just joined returned to the office a minute or two later and whispered: "What's the password?"
It's a common thing for inquiries to be made, says Allen, regarding the institution ceremonies.
THERE was a reduction of 30 per cent in the number of accidents to women packers when short skirts came in, according to reports reaching one of the packing houses.
"Why not make the reduction 100 per cent?" asks an Anahelmer in one of the houses.
I presume he means bathing suits.
THE word is almost obsolete now, but bygone days were revived today when a customer at a local lunch counter picked up the cute little bottle of cream served with the mug of coffee and said to his companion!
"Gee, here's the 'chaser.'"
HERE'S revenge for you! Just as Eddie Schneider was going to give the death thrust to a large rabbit this morning, bunny kicked the butcher knife and the sharp blade was plunged into Eddie's left thumb. The wound; rather severe, was dressed at the sanitarium.
TALK about luck! Dr. Lee C. Deming drove all the way down from Arrowhead this morning without any intimation that a weak tire was going to blow out. He dropped out in Anaheim while Mrs. Deming and daughter, Miss Virginia, proceeded to Katella for a few moments. When they didn't return shortly, the doctor began to worry, picturing a wreck or something. So he hailed me and we flirtered down the pike, flat tire and all.
"That's them, they've been hit sure," said the doctor, as we spotted

TALK about luck: Dr. Lee C. Deming drove all the way down from Arrowhead this morning without any intimation that a weak tire was going to blow out. He dropped out in Anaheim while Mrs. Deming and daughter, Miss Virginia, proceeded to Katella for a few moments. When they didn’t return shortly, the doctor began to worry, picturing a wreck or something. So he hailed me and we flivered down the pike, flat tire and ill.
“That’s them, they’ve been hit sure,” said the doctor, as we spotted a car beside the road.
But the doctor needn’t have worried. They had already changed tires and all he had to do was to climb in behind the wheel, never sweating a drop.
GEORGE H. Ennis, of the Automotive Electric Co., is a true Rooseveltian. I don’t know where he lives but he certainly should have entered the Town in Review’s “Most Kids to the Block Contest,” for he has eight children. And I must say they are about as well-behaved as I have observed in this man’s town.
Every night before turning out the lights, he goes into the bedrooms and counts the sleeping youngsters. One night there was an extra. He asked Friend Wife for an explanation. She had none. They finally determined that it was a neighbor boy who had dropped in for the night.
I lamp from the Orange Daily Snooze:
FOR SALE—40 yr. old laying hens, $1 each. Ph. 41-R., between 8 and 10 a.m.
Some more of those sleeping beauties.
IF you want to get a good day’s work for your money, do it this way. B. Fisher wanted a lot of dirt removed from his lawn so that he could irrigate it without flooding the sidewalk. So he hired a Mexican, telling him there was a ten-dollar bill in it for him.
“I never was so surprised,” says Uncle B. “when I returned home in the evening to find the work all done. He had about six truckloads of dirt piled on the parking. If I’d hired him by the day it would have taken a week. He earned the money.”
ANAHEIM has mighty fine summer climate. We all admit it. And this summer has ben more than usually moderate. If you don’t think so, ask Bill LeVecke, the ice man. Bill fell shy about 100 tons in ice deliveries during July from what he handled last year. And June was even worse. This despite the fact the ice factory had been enlarged to take care of several hundred more ice boxes in Anaheim this year. All because Old Sol wasn’t on the job as strenuously as he might have been.
NEW CITY
Supervisors Will Receive Signed Request at Their Next Meeting
The petition of certain LaHabrans for incorporation of the community was filed today. Thirty-six hundred persons inhabit the territory which the signers seek to incorporate, says the petition. Only 34 names are signed, altho more than 50 names are claimed for the petition.
Supervisors will receive the petition at their next meeting.
Following a trip yesterday afternoon to San Juan Hot Springs, the Board of Supervisors voted to accept the paving of the San Juan Hot Springs road for a distance of 8800 feet to Rancho Mission.
The First National Bank of Santa Ana put in the successful bid for the $3500 in five per cent bonds of the Diamond school district.
County Engineer J. L. McBride will be instructed, it was decided, to prepare plans for the paying of parts of Walnut avenue, Melrose avenue, Main street, Bradford avenue, Crowther avenue (Placentia-Yorba road), Santa Fe avenue, Center street and Chapman avenue.
Sept. 11 was set to hear the petition to abandon parts of several Laguna streets—Cliff Drive, Monterey Drive, Beach street, Hill street and certain adjacent alleys.
Sept. 11 was fixed also for the hearing of the petition for the new waterworks district No. 2; Fullerton.
DENIES THREAT TO GIVE WIFE SPANKING
Sensational charges are made by E. Roger Sherman in an answer to the divorce complaint of Irene L. Sherman and in a cross complaint filed today. The couple lived for a considerable time in Anaheim.
He denies the alleged cruelties or that he threatened to spank her, and recites a long list of instances in which he alleges she was guilty of misconduct with other men. One of these, George A. McAfee, she mentions by name. On or about Jan. 5, 1922, she entertained McAfee, he says, in their home during his absence. On or about Nov. 5, 1920, she had two strange men in the house. On or about July 10, 1922, she hit him with a salt shaker, he alleges. On or about July 20 last year she struck him in the face and on the head with a dish rag. On or about April 17, 1920 in Santa Ana she tried to stab George McAfee “got off speaking, in an erroon, swear in the traffic crashed into and fled at miles an hour his car went at Truslow cording to initton police station charge by O’But the “with his cap officers; for such an “honor as the Fuller prime him of lately announce ‘tesit it down the city auth so to speak, force should flight.

OFFICIAL SAYS NO OVER-PRODUCTION
CHICAGO, Aug. 15.—Commenting on the gasoline war throutout the middle west, George Cook, an official of the Standard Oil Co., of Indiana, today branded as utter falsehood all reports that there had been any over-production or over-supply of refined products within the last year.
"The tales about over-production of gasoline, are entirely unfounded," Cook said. "They are mere hysteria. There is not more than a skirt day supply of gasoline in the United States at the present."
Cook, who just had returned from South Dakota, where the fight for lower prices for gasoline began, told International News Service it was impossible to forecast the outcome of the "gas war."
"The Standard company," he said, much against its wishes was forced to make drastic cuts to meet competition. None of the producers is going to make money, so long as gasoline sells around 15 cents a gallon. Such a price is much below cost of production. The sooner gasoline sells somewhere in the vicinity of 21 cents, the better for all concerned. And, I fail to see how the present war can continue long.

FURTHER GAS CUT
ST. LOUIS, Aug. 15.—A further cut in gas prices of two cents a gallon in St. Louis was predicted today by D. H. Cohen, president of the Puritan oil Corp. That would bring the price to 13.9 cents.

LITTLE CIDER CAUSES LOT OF TROUBLE
George McKenzie, 25, of Anaheim "got on a whizz," literally speaking, in Fullerton yesterday afternoon, swerved from side to side in the traffic jam on Spadra-rd., crashed into a machine on the curb and fled at the rate of about 50 miles an hour, being captured when his car went into a ditch and stalled at Truslow and Highland-aves., according to information at the Fullerton police station. He was taken in charge by Officers Ellis and Lacey.
But the "fun" had only begun with his capture, according to the officers; for he was determined that such an "honorless"-looking building as the Fullerton jail should not deprive him of his liberty, and immediately announced his intention to "tear it down" shake the pillows of the city authorities about their ears, so to speak, until the whole police force should take to their heels in flight.
And he was not long in demonstrating that his was no empty boast. He attacked the outlets of his prison with all the ferocity of a tiger, and succeeded in smashing the window of his cell. The police interrupted him and thrust him into another cell. He smashed the window of this one also, and when his supper was brot he broke part of the dishes. Officers say he had been drinking hard elder. He was brot before Judge French, penitentiary, this morning and agreed to pay all damages if the judge would let him off as lightly as possible.
He was fined $25.
The trouble is said to have started shortly past 3 p.m. when, swerving from side to side, he drove his
MEETING
Will Be Held Until Status Has Been Officially Determined
DUBLIN, Aug. 15.—Eammon De Valera, leader of the Irish republicans, and the most aggressive political foe of the Free State was arrested in County Clare today while making a campaign speech.
De Valera had not been speaking for more than two minutes when the cry went out:
"Soldiers are coming!"
The Free State troops rushed up firing a volley into the air over the platform. Then they closed in and seized De Valera who made no protest.
Before the arrest was made, an armored car dashed up the village street, with the soldiers firing into the air. At the first warning, De Valera fell upon the platform.
The crowds about the place quickly broke into panic. A handful of personal supporters, believing De Valera had been wounded, surrounded him and lifted him up. By this time the soldiers had reached the platform. They had bayonets attached to their rifles and turned aside the crowd at the point of the cold steel. De Valera was taken into custody. He assured his friends he had not been hurt.
The government announced that De Valera's arrest was made under the public safety act. He will be held in prison until his future status is decided. He may be a prisoner until after the election Aug. 27. It was reported here that several members of the crowd fired revolvers and that some persons were knocked down and trampled.
De Valera had been driven to Ennis in disguise in an open automobiles. According to a newspaper correspondent, who was nearby, De Valera fainted, which accounted for his fall upon the platform.
LONDON, Aug. 15.—Eamon De Valera, leader of the Irish Republicans and the most outstanding figure in turbulent Irish politics, was arrested today at Ennis. County Clare, on the eve of a campaign speech, according to a report received from Dublin by the Evening Standard.

BERGDOLL IDOLIZED BY CERTAIN CLASS
EBERBACH, Germany, Aug. 15.—Grover Cleveland Bergdoll, wealthy American draft dodger, who war reported mysteriously missing suddenly turned up this afternoon. Bergdoll who killed one man and wounded another, while an attempt being made to kidnap him last Saturday, strutted thru the streets with a big revolver bulging from his pocket. He was an idol among a certain class.
Eugene Victor Nilson, of Chicago, chauffeur of the auto in which Bergdoll was to be spirited away, raged like a tiger in his prison cell, clenching his fists and muttering:
"Damn our luck," and stronger exclamations.
"It took a pretty tough skull to take the thugging they gave me," said Bergdoll.
The wealthy German-American grinned as he boasily pointed to his head.
"It took a lot of stitches to close up that cut," added Bergdoll.
After making his statement to International News Service, Bergdoll disappeared and could not be found in any of his usual baunts. He boasted to friends that he could take care of himself and that "no man could take him out of Germany against his will."
While there is high feeling here, there have been no outbreaks. False stories were circulated in the United States that the mob tried to storm the jail. No such scene took place. The prisoners are being guarded safely.
It is learned that women's clothing was found in the baggage of the kidnapers, evidently for disguise purposes.

KEMMERER, Wyo., Aug. 15—One hundred and two dead is the toll today of the terrific explosion in Frontier Mine No. 1 of the Kemmerer Coal Company which entombed 127 men and shook the countryside yesterday morning shortly after the miners had entered the workings for the day.
Ninety one bodies have been removed early this morning and eleven more dead were known to be in the mine. Thirty-five men were rescued alive, but one died as he was being taken out.
Indications this afternoon were that funeral services for the victims of the disaster would be held in separate groups. Rev. Thomas Eyane planned to officiate at the funeral of all Protestants and the Rev. Father Samenesky, of the local Catholic Church, will probably conduct services for members of his faith. No definite date has been set for their burials.
The explosion was caused by what is known as a "windy shot," the result of too heavy a charge of black powder.
H. J. Quesley, president of the company that operates the mine, has declined to issue any official statement.
The explosion occurred between stope 15 and 17 about a mile from the entrance of the mine and except for the 35 who came out alive, the workers had no chance for their lives, the poisonous gases overcoming them immediately.
Twenty-two of the rescued were saved thru heroic action by Joe Nadi and Tony Davich who locked twenty-seven men within a stope barricade until the death tunnel was partly cleared of black damp.
Twenty-two of these 27 were taken out alive. Nadi and Davich died in their efforts to rescue other imprisoned men.
A large number of the dead men are foreigners—Italians and Armensians and a few Japanese.
It was a gruesome sight that greeted early morning visitors at Odd Fellows Hall and Fitpatrick Undertaking rooms today where the victims of the disaster were stretched out under white canvas while officials of the mine checked their identification.
Forty-six bodies were at The Fitpatrick place, forty-three at Odd Fellows Hall and two had been removel

By making the furniture in the manual training shops, they expect to save $4000.
The general science wing, which includes the science, chemistry and engineering departments of the high school and junior college, is expected to be one of the most up-to-date in the state when finished. The wing will include among other things a dark room, a greenhouse and lecture, study and general class rooms.
REFUSE TO ACCEPT
/AFFIDAVIT OF OAKS
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 15—Refuging to accept an affidavit from former Chief of Police Louis D. Oaks against Captain R. L. Heath, the police commission today proceeded with the hearing of the Heath case despite Oaks' failure to appear as the accusing witnesses.
The commission's refusal to accept Oaks' testimony in affidavit form forced the withdrawal from the hearing of Attorney Frank Belecher, representing the former chief. Belecher withdrew from the case when the commission insisted that Oaks be present to face Heath and give verbal instead of written testimony.
According to friends of former chief Oaks three attempts have been made by the so-called "invisible government" of the city to discredit the former chief and to prevent him from appearing against Heath.
Heath appeared at the hearing early today but refused to comment on the hearing other than to state that he did not fear the final outcome.
