LADIES WILL WEAR DAZZLING PLAIDS PARIS, Oct. 26—The checks are in you, ladies, if you would be in this year. Judging by the displays of frocks and mantles coming from the smart designers, plaids and checks in striking colorings will be worn this season. There are smart suits, made of tricolor de sole, in old Scotch plaids like the capes that used to be so fashionable in rough materials and the traveling coats, with big capes over them. Along with them come "blazers," in a curious kind of plaid-on-the-bias. One of Patou's favorite models is done in a checked cloth, with his circular collar and skirt ruffle. The silhouette is like the old-fashioned princess outline, and the collar and cuffs are striped with brown fur. Doucet favors plaids and checks for his long coats and circular capes. One is in pale green and is barred with rust color, having a stripe of yellow on each side, the band of colors being about two inches in width, while another wrap, of fine white cloth, has a broad violet border, half deep purple and half royal blue. Another rough serge coat, in pale green, has a striped border of silvery embroidery; and another, in black, has wide stripes of scarlet and blue at the foot of the collar. A most amazing coat and skirt is in dark blue, in a design like the halma board, and in the center of each square is a large bright sequin, like a glittering eye. There is something about plaid that makes it very suitable for any costume, even remotely removed from sports. Lelong is using plaids in a pleasing and original manner. Dresses of plaid and coats lined and trimmed with plaid are features of his collection. He has one dress of "plaid Anglaise," as the French call it, which almost dazzles the eyes. Most of the Scotches come in lapis blue and rusty yellow, or castor, which is going to be much employed with castor fur.

OFFICER ON GIRL'S CHARGES LOS ANGELES, Oct. 26—(INS)—Detectives today continued their search for connecting links of evidence to substantiate the charges of Dorothy Hacker, 15, against Ralph E.

ARREST PREACHER Fred Schmidt, street preacher, was arrested in Fullerton late yesterday afternoon on a charge of interfering with traffic. He is said to have been walking down the middle of the street, inconveniencing a number of drivers who blew their horns for him to clear the way.

HOBO CAMP STILL LODI, Oct. 26—The high cost of liquor was an unknown problem in Lodi's hobo camp, according to prohibition officers, until the 100 residents of the colony joined in a general celebration and aroused the suspicions of federal officers. The raiding party met with no resistance, due to the fact that the "bindle stiffs" had partaken of their free booze too freely. Investigation showed that the hobos had created a still out of old tin cans and obtained their raw product from the city dump.

WILL MAKE BOW TO WASHINGTON SOCIETY WALLACE ON STAND IN DIVORCE DRAMA NEW YORK, Oct. 26.—"The man in the case" held the center of the stage today in the sensational divorce drama of "Stokes vs Stokes". Edgar T. Wallace, San Francisco oil man, named by William Earl Dodge Stokes as the principal co-respondent of two score with whom he linked his wife's name, tok the witness stand this afternoon. "Mrs. Stokes never visited my apartment. I never met her any place after the day she married Stokes. She never was in Bunceton, Mo., with me. She never visited Bethel, Conn., or any other place with me." Wallace testified. "There was never any love affair between us—nothing ever like that. The charge in this case is absolutely unfounded." Wallace appeared anything but the Romeo he has been pictured by the Stokes witnesses. He is tall and somewhat angular. His face is red-dish and his nose high bridged. He seemed to surprise the court room audience when he testified he was married. His wif is in San Francisco. Wallac gave his age as 52. He said he was born in Bunceton, Mo., and left there when he was 13 to go west. Samuel Untermyer, Mrs. Stokes' attorney, handed him a picture of himself and Mrs. Stokes taken on a beach near San Francisco. They were playing on the sand. "Either Mrs. Stokes' mother or her sister snapped the picture," Wallace said. "I saw her about four times in the two weeks or so she was in San Francisco." Wallace said he allowed Mrs. Stokes to wear his ring in 1907 or 1908 in New York. She returned it later, he said. "It was not an engagement ring," he testified. Stokes had made that charge. "I never saw Mrs. Stokes alone," he continued, "either before or after oer marriage." MAROONED IN SNOW DENVER, Oct. 26—(INS)—Eleven national guard officers from Miss Barbara Ballou. Miss Barbara Ballou, one of the most attractive and prominent "sub debs" in Washington, D.C., is to make her debut in society shortly. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Ballou. KEARSARGE MADE INTO FREAK VESSEL The old battleship, USS. Kearsarge, one of the American fleet which started on the famous cruise around the world in 1907, has been turned into one of the oddest-looking ships in a navy that is becoming full of queer types. She is now a "craneship No. I" with an electrically-operated crane that will pick up 250 tons over the side at sea without a dangerous list. The Kearsarge was considered one of the finest battleships afloat when she was commissioned in 1898. She and her sister ship, the Kentucky, were the first to be fitted with superimposed turrets and with extensive electrical apparatus. The generating stations on each ship large for the time, consisted of seven 50 kw. 60-volt steam engine driven generating sets with tandem compound type of engine. After being in reserve for several years she was placed in commission at the time of the Vera Cruz incident, and later did patrol duty with the Atlantic fleet during the world war. Two years ago the U.S. navy decided that it needed a crane to aid in repairs on ships at sea. So the Kearsarge was selected for transformation and it was complete. She is quite the oddest-looking thing that ever sailed the seas. She can be used for salvage work and is capable of raising a sunken submarine. HOT SPRINGS IN ICELAND Iceland has so many hot springs and geysers that government officials are figuring on heating all its homes with the water from them without using coal.

Bone, of the Garden Grove vicinity had to pay a fine of $100 for beating up the aged W. T. Walthall. Justice J. B. Cox decided today when the case was tried. Boone accused Walthall of trespassing on his land, but according to the Judge the main difficulty was that Walthall, who is a blacksmith, was shooting horses of a couple of foes of Boone's. C. N. Mozley, deputy district attorney appeared for the People, and Thomas E. Pickrell as attorney for the defendant. SCRAP IN OLD CAR VALUABLE You can often obtain more money for an old car if you "junk" it yourself than if you sell it intact to a junk dealer, says Popular Science Monthly in its October issue. Wreck the machine and separate the various kind of metal. Sell the metal as scrap, and whatever is too bulky to get rid of in this way, dispose of to the junkman. In one case an owner received $60 for the scrapped parts of a car for which a dealer had offered him only $15. "REST CURE" IN PARK STOCKTON, Oct. 22. — Arrested on a charge of vagrancy when he was found asleep on a park bench. F. C. Thomas convinced the officers of their mistake by flashing a roll of bills totaling in excess of $1000. Thomas, it developed, is a retired English merchant, and is taking the "rest cure" in California to regain his health. Back stage it was reported a dark horse being groomed for the commander race, and odds were offered that none of the candidates now mentioned would land the coveted honor. At any rate, the negro migration should open up a new market for washing machines in the south. SUSPECT PRISONER IN SHOOTING SCRAPE Jailed for intoxication, a fellow who gave his name as Ford was suspected today by Sheriff Sam Jernigan's deputies of being involved in a shooting scrape at San Bernardino not long ago. An investigation now is being made. "Shorty" Myers, state traffic officer, made the arrest.

MAN WILL PAY PENALTY FOR MOST ATROCIOS CRIME IN UTAH SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. 26--Unless his brain paints a mental picture of the most atrocious crime ever committed in Utah a picture of eager flames leaping about the charred and blackened body of his wife lying on a benzine-saturated bed, local officers assert that the justice of man-made laws will have been defeated when Omer Woods, convicted murderer, pays the death penalty. Under the Utah laws Woods must face an executioner's squad of rifle-men with a target over his heart or swing from a hangman's noose at the state prison before Oct. 24. He is permitted his choice of the two. For more than a year Woods has forestalled the penalty, but the state supreme court has spoken and the arch criminal of Salt Lake City police records, veteran officers declare, must die for his crime. Woods, a native of Tennessee and employed by the U.S. internal revenue service at the time of his arrest for murder, asserts his innocence. When he sits, tightly bound, with five rifles pointed at his heart, if he chooses this form of execution, those familiar with the case believe he will confess, provided a confession is not forthcoming before then. When firemen rushed into the suite occupied by the Woods at the Pauline apartments in this city, on Jan. 9, 1922, they found the body of Mrs. Maretta Woods lying on the flaming bed. She was bound hand and foot, while a handkerchief had been used as a gag. KIDDIES' COLDS should not be "dosed."

Pledged To Mother Thru All Her Life BINGHAMTON, Oct. 26. — "No, even if I love the girl, we won't be married. My life is dedicated to my mother, and I'll never be alone." SPEEDING UP DOLL HOUSE FOR QUEEN LONDON, Oct. 26 Designers, artists and craftsmen are hard at work speeding up the creation of the doll's house to be presented to Queen Mary. The house will first be exhibited at next year's exhibition at Wembley park, the admission charges to be devoted to any charitable cause selected by England's queen. Designed by Sir Edward Lutyteng, the house is on a scale of one inch to the foot. It is about eight feet high and stands in a formal garden. Of the modern renaissance type, the house recalls the many beautiful houses which have been sketched for quiet English places by the famous architect. There are lilliputian fireplaces, doors and window frames. A staircase which leads out of the domed hall is of jade, lapis lazuli and marble. Water runs into the tiny baths in the bathrooms designed for the king doll and the queen doll. There are even pungent little political cartoons hanging on the walls of the king's bathroom. Electric lights are operated by tiny switches. There are telephones which could be used were fairy mouths available for sending across the gossamer wires the news of fairyland. There is a grand piano seven inches long and half-length portraits of the king and queen, of King Edward and Queen Alexandra hang on the walls. LIONS WILL GIVE ARE YOU A MASON? "Are You a Mason" is conceded to be one of the best comedies ever written. This excellent American play has had long runs in New York, Chicago and in every large city in America. It has received unqualified endorsement everywhere and the and the screen production was also a great laughing success. It will be presented by the Lions club of Anaheim at the Fairyland theatre Monday opening, Nov. 5th, at both matinee and evening performances.

My life is dedicated to my mother, and I'll never marry anyone so long as she's alive." With these words, Charles E. Clapper, 23, of 24 Munsell at, pledged his troth to his mother and renounced romance. That was several years ago, and he kept the vow as long as he could. Then his mind snapped; he was committed to the Binghamton state hospital for the insane. Now his mother has obtained through the supreme court the right to share in the $4000 estate which she believes he would want her to have if he could speak sancely again. As a result of the horrors through which he went during the war service in France, the young man is hopelessly insane, his mother, Mrs. Lois Clapper, sadly says. Hospital experts corroborate her statement. So the mother, left in poverty by the misfortune which overtook her loyal son and forced from ways of comfort to laking in washing, now petitions a distribution of the mad soldier's estate. After hearing her story, Justice Leon C. Rhodes granted her $40 a month for her support and an additional $50 to pay debts.
