TOWN IN REVIEW BY OLD TIMER THE total eclipse of the sun next week will be no novelty to Mrs. F. W. Walte of 612 No. Olive-st. At the age of 12, in Rochester, N. Y., she saw a similar phenomena in 1869. She remembers considerable interest was displayed in the event. She recalls that it occurred in the afternoon of a hot day in August or September, and that it had been raining steadily for two days previous. Everyone was out with a smoked glass and it was quite dark for a few minutes. The heens cackled and the dogs barked. In order to take full advantage of this, for her second total eclipse, she will motor to San Diego Sunday with her son, Frank E. Walte and daughter, Mildred, of Los Angeles. She has also seen two partial eclipses of the sun. SOMETIMES a fellow will exert himself tremendously and call it great fun and then have to do something where he can't possibly work up a sweat and call it hard work. For instance, anyone knows washing windows doesn't require such a great deal of elbow grease nor mental anxiety, and yet there was Doc Barnes this morning fussing and fuming because he couldn't find anybody else to polish the plate glass and he had to do it. And it was only last week-end that he wore a bunch of blisters on both mitts rowing an old scow down at Balboa. It all depends on the point of view.

I SUPPOSE I really ought to start a contest to see who turn in the most unique or funny or pathetic sign on a Ford.

On the top windshield was this: "Enemies of Women," and below it was "They're All Allike." In the car were five young shirts. ALMOST wish now I hadn't pointed that story about the eastern woman who told Wm. Felkenstein we had such lovely weather here in the summer time because so many times I have been stopped the last two days and asked if I hadn't been a little previous with it. But this isn't warm weather. You folks who haven't been back east recently don't remember what hot weather is really like. When it gets so hot that it doesn't cool off at night and you lie under a sheet and wish you were sleeping in a bathing suit with the water up to your chin, then you come around and call my attention to it and I'll look into the matter. With the thermometer expected to go still higher than yesterday when it registered 93 degrees in Los Angeles, the weather man today explained it was due to the humidity, which mounted to 70 percent. The weather is not "unusual" at this time of the year, according to Colonel H. B. Hersey, but seems particularly so because of the cool summer. The colonel scoffed at the idea that the conditions were "earthquake weather." THE roulette wheel operated by H. C. Reed and J. Skelley, at Seal Beach, confiscated Saturday night during a raid by the sheriff's office, on gambling establishments at Real Beach, on examination was found today to be the crookedest kind of devices. The wheel, which was mounted on a handsome table, was controlled by a small screw to the right hand corner of the table in appearance exactly like the other screws, which attached the covering to the table. This screw actually was a button. To the left of the machine by pressing the surface of the table, connection was established with a battery, located in a drawer under the operators left hand. In this was the wheel could be moved or stopped at the will of the operator. THREE pairs of horns are on exhibit at the Wissner sporting goods center at Westchester Indoor Stadium. OF ANAHEIM Claim Gas Can Be Made From Crude in 30 Minutes by New Process Construction of a gasoline refinery at Cypress will be started Sept. 10, it was reported today. According to the report, a Tulsa concern has purchased 40 acres southwest of Cypress, belonging to Mrs. Pillsbury, of Los Angeles. This is located one mile west and half mile south of Cypress, just east of the Proffer ranch. A survey has been completed and $20,000 has been paid on the property. The head of the Oklahoma concern was with the Standard Oil Co. 18 years and is now selling gasoline to that company, according to the report. By a new process, it is claimed the manufacture of gasoline can be made from crude oil in 30 minutes, compared with the usual 48-hours time necessary. Cypress was also much excited today over the purchase of 116½ acres in that vicinity by C. C. Julian, famous independent. The purchase was made from Mrs. Jesse Scott of Los Angeles for $900 per acre, the deal going into escrow Thursday. Julian has already acquired 80 acres at Artesia. SEND STRANGER TO CO. HOSPITAL Michael Dallmeier who is here from the east was picked up last night in Fullerton, and sent to the Orange County hospital this morning on the grounds that he was mentally deranged. He was going thru strange antics last night on Hillcrest, and neighbors reported his actions to the police. Otis Hayden, charged with evading railroad fare, was sentenced to 30 days in the county jail. DAMAGE TO PORTS FROM OCEAN STORM LOS ANGELES, Sept. 5—Points on the southern California coast today continued to feel the effects of a terrific storm raging far out at sea and believed by mariners to be partly caused by the huge typhoons that followed the Nippon earthquake and tidal wave. As a result local harbor has suffered damage estimated at $50,000.

Miller, county probation officer, on the difference in the problems which confronted our fathers and the problems which confront the boys growing up today. The meeting was largely attended, there being visitors from Anaheim, Orange and Santa Ana. TIE VOTE PROBABLE PHOENIX, Ariz., Sept. 5—The status of the Colorado river pact ratification remains unchanged today as the result of yesterday's special legislative election. A tie vote in the lower house is the prospect unless members who have expressed themselves as against the proposition change their minds in the near future.

This was the first official move at Geneva to obstruct the league action and bears out the exclusive statement given to International News Service yesterday by Premier Mussolini, setting forth Rome's policy. It is reported from Athens that the Italians are preparing to occupy Margaretti, near the Albanian frontier. It is semi-officially stated in Rome, however, that there will be no extension of Italian occupation, "unless Italy is forced to do so by Greece's actions." CHARGE KISER KILLED WIFE AND MAN Paroled After Serving Two Years of Ten-Year Term for Double Tragedy That Frank Kiser in 1913 shot and killed his wife and a man with whom 350000 HOMES DESTROYED IN TOKIO Japanese Embassy in Washington Today Has First Direct Communication WASHINGTON, Sept. 5.—The Japanese Embassy here today received its TEST HOLE IS MAKING FAST PROGRESS If the same progress is made today as yesterday, the Standard Oil Co.'s test well on the Community Lease, of the William Wagner, Jr., ranch, will reach a depth of approximately 575 feet by tomorrow morning. This morning the drill was eating away steadily at 450 feet below the surface. It is impossible to average progress made now. If boulders, survivors of the day when the Santa Ana river flowed over the site of the well, are encountered, only three feet may be drilled, and then the whole string of drill pipe must be pulled out and bits changed. On the other hand, if only hard sand is met with, 20 to 25 feet may be perforated without a halt. Judging by the seven or eight other oil fields, which lie strung out about Anaheish and Fullerton, it is practically certain no oil sand, if it exists, will be found at less than 2,000 feet and the probabilities are nearer 3,000 feet down. As a matter of fact, however, comparisons of any kind are dangerous, particularly one with fields such as those of Brea and Olinda, where the anticline formation prevails. The Placentia field, which is nearer and has a similar surface, is bet- AND MAN Paroled After Serving Two Years of Ten-Year Term for Double Tragedy That Frank Kiser in 1913 shot and killed his wife and a man with whom he accused her of being familiar, in Los Angeles, was the extraordinary statement of Santa Ana police officers today. Kiser continues to improve at Orange-co hospital. About a week ago he made an unsuccessful attempt to shoot his present wife, and J. L. Vade, a roomer in the house. Mrs. Kiser refuses to swear out a complaint against Kiser thru fear of the consequences if he gets free Roland Thompson, her attorney, said today. In the course of the trial of Kiser, for the previous crime, he alleged that he had not intended to kill his wife, but that the bullet went wild. For the double slaying in 1913 he was given ten years in the state penitentiary, but was parolled at the end of the second year and finally pardoned. It was during the period of his parole in 1918 or 1919, according to the best information of the Santa Ana police, that he married his present wife. Further circumstances regarding the recent near tragedy in Santa Ana are coming out now with the investigation which is being made preparatory to filing a complaint. Attempted manslaughter undoubtedly will be charged. While the police still are of the opinion that Kiser carefully planned the attempted slaying, the shooting followed a request of his wife that he move its car from the alley so that Wade could drive away. Kiser answered: "What time does he go to work in the morning?" Nevertheless, there is still no evidence that Wade was any more familiar with the woman than a roomer would be expected to be. Wade is a linetype operator connected with one of the Santa Ana papers. According to the Santa Ana police, the Kiser house is entirely respectable and Mrs. Kiser kept roomers merely to help make a living after Kiser had left her. Police are very doubtful, however, of Mrs. Kiser's statement that the morning of the attempted tragedy was the first time she had seen him since he left. Mrs. Kiser had filed a divorce complaint but later withdrew it. IN TOKIO Japanese Embassy in Washington Today Has First Direct Communication WASHINGTON, Sept. 5.—The Japanese embassy here today received its first direct word from Tokio since the earthquake and fire disaster, indicating that progress is being made toward reopening communication with the stricken capital. The message today was from Yamamoto, the premier and foreign minister, and merely reported the formation of the new government. The names of Okono and Harauma, named in press reports as the new ministers of education and justice respectively, were missing in the embassy's advises, leading to a suspicion that they may have been injured or killed. Approximately 350,000 houses in Tokio have been utterly destroyed, a dispatch stated, and the whole city laid waste by the fire. Troops from five different garrisons are marching into the stricken capital to preserve order and take charge of the relief work, the consul reported. A flow of food and relief supplies already has been started toward the capital from southern Japan, going by water. Ten thousand people were killed at Atami, the dispatch added, while two-thirds of the population of Yokosaka were either killed or injured. SHANGHAI, Sept. 5.—With the re-establishment of partial communication in Japan, the unprecedented disaster which has stunned the world and rendered millions of persons in the island empire homeless, with a loss of life variously estimated at from 300,000 to half a million, the catastrophe is being unfolded to an anxious world in dispatches today which are trickling through direct from the stricken country for the first time since earthquake, conflagration and tidal wave laid waste to an area said to be 100 miles square. The property damage is incalculable. Twenty-four foreigners, including several Americans, are known to have lost their lives in the calamity at Yokohama. The dead in the capital city of Tokio is unknown. Earlier reports indicated the foreign quarter of the city was demolished with possible heavy loss of foreign lives. Electric lights in the Tokyo wards of Hongo and Koishikawa were turn- Judging by the seven or eight other oil fields, which lie strung out about Anaheif and Fullerton, it is practically certain no oil sand, if it exists, will be found at less than 2,000 feet and the probabilities are nearer 3,000 feet down. As a matter of fact, however, comparisons of any kind are dangerous, particularly one with fields such as those of Brea and Olinda, where the anticlineal formation prevails. The Placentia field, which is nearer and has a similar surface, is better for purposes of comparison, and the formation found in the new well continues to be practically the same as that of Placentia—a hard gravelly, sand, interrupted occasionally by boulders. Andrew Youngquist, drill foreman, today went to Huntington Beach to confer with his supervisors. Youngquist, who drilled in the Kraemer lease at Placentia, is the man quoted as saying that the sand and rock formations were similar to those of Placentia. Many inquiries are being received by G. M. Simpson about his 10-acre orange grove on South-st., which he is sub-dividing into lots, four to an acre, which he will sell at moderate prices. The loss already are under lease to the General Petroleum Corp. COMPLAINT FILED AFTER ACCIDENT A John Doe complaint was filed today in superior court following an accident last evening near Irvine station when Mrs. Earl Horton and daughter, Blanche, nine, of Pasadena, were injured. The victims were taken to Community hospital, Santa Ana, where the little girl still is. The child will recover, the hospital said today. She has no broken bones nor internal injuries. According to the complaint the driver of the other car, license number was 732-028, refused to reveal his identity or that of others in the car, and also declined to give age, both of which acts constitute a felony.

SON-IN-LAW SHOT; BULLET FLATTENS Apolenario Cuevasr, at 7:30 last night, shot his son-in-law, Stanley Romero, of 1117 Cypress-st, Santa Ana, thru the upper lip, knocking out some of his teeth. The bullet was flattened against Romero's jaw and dropped to the floor. Cuevasr has vanished but the pistol which he used is said to have been a bulldog .35 calibre. Cuevas lives in a Santa Ana apt house. The shooting was the result of a family row, due, it is said, to Romero's running his mother-in-law out of the house earlier in the evening. SAWYERS GRAIN CO-SUSPENDS BUSINESS CHICAGO, Sept. 5 — The Sawyers Grain Co. suspended business today. William Simons, president of the company, said sunspension was due to traders being caught short on September corn which went up faster than December corn on which the traders were long. He said the company will pay what it owes. Immediately after the announcement of the failure, J. J. Jones, secretary of the board of trade, declared that the company would close all open trade and that the failure would have no effect on the market. Officials of the company denied that the failure was precipitated by rumors that Governor McCray of Indiana, who owns stock in the concern, was trying to corner the corn market. WORTHMORE TRACT First time since earthquake, congregation and tidal wave laid waste to an area said to be 100 miles square. The property damage is incalculable. Twenty-four foreigners, including several Americans, are known to have lost their lives in the calamity at Yokohama. The dead in the capital city of Tokio is unknown. Earlier reports indicated the foreign quarter of the city was demolished with possible heavy loss of foreign lives. Electric lights in the Tokio wards of Hongo and Kolshikawa were turned on for the first time in almost a week. Seven of the wards, or suburbs, were obliterated. A portion of the water supply system in the remaining wards has been repaired and these communities are being served. A Tokio reporter of the Asahi, a newspaper, escaped in the height of the seismic disturbance at Yokohama Sunday night and after three days and nights travel by foot reached Osaka today. He reported that all towns and villages between the two cities had been demolished with an appalling loss of life. The communities included Hachioll, Atsuki, Hiratsuka, Kodzu and Totemba. Confirmation was received that the populous island of Oshima, with its 60,000 souls has been inundated with not a trace remaining. Oshima was the largest island of the Izu group. The Far Eastern Review here received a cable from the stricken country indicating that its offices were destroyed, but the fate of its personnel was not given. The cable added that all banks in Tokio and Yokohama were reduced to debris and funds were unavailable. From Peking came reports that 10,000 refugees who had taken refuge in the military depot at Tokio were burned to death. All cities, towns and hamlets of Idzu, Tokadeo, Bozo and Miura peninsulas were wiped out. The total population of the poninsula is more than 100,000. Two hundred sixteen earth shocks were felt in Yokohama and Tokio last Saturday. Fifty-seven of the tremors were felt in a three-hour period, from 8 to 11 a.m. Only an approximate estimate of the loss of life will ever be known.

TIMS STARVING Oline Refinery At Cypress HOMES ROYED OKIO QUAKE BULLETINS WASHINGTON, Sept. 5. — The American destroyers, led by the Stewart, Captain E. B. Pettingill commanding, have reached Yokohama it was announced today, and soundings of the harbor are being taken to determine the safety of navigation. The Stewart is equipped with sonic depth finders, the most modern instruments for determining navigable waters. Soundings are considered necessary, in Yokohama because of the great upheavals which have taken place on the floor of the ocean there.

State department officials pointed out it is probable that hundreds of those for whom inquiries have been made will eventually be found not to have been in the disaster zone. PEKING, Sept. 5.—The terrific earthquake and subsequent fire took a toll of 150,000 lives in Tokio, it was estimated by metropolitan police after a preliminary survey, stated a report received here from Tokio today. The homeless were listed at 250,000. The same source estimated casualties in Yokohama at 100,000. The only newspaper not totally destroyed in the capital city was the Nichi Nichi. The machines were damaged to such an extent however, to make publication impossible. Eight hundred bed-ridden patients at the University Hospital were cremated without a chance to save themselves. SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 5.—A fleet of U.S. shipping board vessels in the harbor here are being speedily loaded today with relief supplies for stricken Japan. All commercial cargo bookings were cancelled and the craft is storing into its holds food supplies, medical necessities and clothing. Four big government passenger liners are now in Oriental waters. They will be utilized in taking disressed American and foreign refugees out of the devastated area. Wheat and rice will form the bulk of the food supplies, it was stated in shipping circles here today, while the army depots will be called upon to furnish clothing and blankets. Mare Island, it is stated, will be called upon for medical supplies. HONOLULU, Sept. 5.—Major General Charles P. Summerall telegraphed the war department at Washington today stating that the Hawaiian reserve stock of food, shelter medical needs and blankets were available for immediate shipment to Japan. The Hawaiian chapter of the American Red Cross register twenty nurses and six physicians as potential relief unit for immediate dispatch to the stricken country. DESTROYED Communication Is Partially Restored Today With Devastated Area As COMMUNICATION was partially restored today with the Japanese area devastated by earthquake, fire, storm and tidal wave, the estimates of dead became more conservative. The death list may not exceed 800,000. American Ambassador Wood reported from Tokyo that the casualties in that city are now estimated at only 10,000. All Americans are safe, he said. The Japanese consul general at Shanghai, however, estimated the dead in Tokyo at 130,000. The first supplies of relief food have reached the ravaged district around Tokio. Food and medicines are badly needed by the hundreds of thousands of homeless fugitives. Within a few days a steady stream of food and clothing, shelter tents, blankets and medicines will be pouring into Japan. Vice consul Jenks, an American, was killed at Yokohama. The Italian ambassador at Tokyo was killed. Manila reports news from semi-official sources that Premier Yamamoto is missing. A million and a half people in stricken Tokio are facing starvation. Yokohama was completely destroyed without a building left standing according to a private telegram. The work of reconstruction will start at once. It is estimated Japan will buy $500,000,000 worth of supplies in the United States. SHANGAI, Sept. 5.—Twenty-four known dead, foreigners, about half of them Americans, lost their lives at Yokohama according to the first list of casualties received here today.
