Anaheim This Edition Issued Week TRY TO REACH MARS BY RADIO LONDON, Aug. 13.—Mars is today nearer the earth than it has been for over 100 years, and elaborate preparations are being made to observe the planet and even attempt communication. The red planet has been hurtling toward the earth at the rate of 8,000 miles an hour but is still more than 34,000,000 miles away. Tomorrow an attempt will be made from the summit of Jungfrau to send a wireless message to the planet. A 15,000-metre long-wave transmitter will be used, and it is probable that Senator Marconi will be present when the strongest radio wave yet produced is shot into space. Professor Pickering, at the observatory in Maudeville, Jamaica, will attempt a series of photographs by means of specially constructed instruments. His first object is to obtain evidence on the subject of the supposed canals on Mars, which he has stated, "are not water channels, nor vegetation growing along water channels. They are either bands of moistened soil, or vegetation growing on moltened soil." The biggest reflectors in England will be in use in observations, including the 30-inch reflectors at Greenwich, at the Norman Rocky Observatory, in Devonhire, and at the private observatory of J. H. Reynolds, at Harborne. It is not certain whether the huge telescope at the Crimean YORBA NEWS YORBA LINDA, Aug. 13.—(Spl.)—W. A. Kelley was among those from here who attended the Iowa state picnic held at Bixby park, Long Beach, on Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. Veo Woods and son have moved to Arlington. Several residents were called from their beds about 5 o'clock Saturday morning when the fire bell rang. The Overland car belonging to W. G. Cannon was on fire, but extinguished before the motor was damaged. It is supposed the fire started from a cigar or cigarette stub tossed in the back. Mr. Cannon will probably have a truck body put on. George Horn and family, who have been driving in the northern part of the state, returned home Saturday morning. Miss Marjorie Holland returned home the end of the week from a several days' stay with relatives in Whittier. Mrs. A. A. Bish was a Los Angeles visitor Monday. Several people from here motored to Long Beach Saturday and spent a pleasant evening. The Eastern Star held their regular meeting Monday evening, which was "Advance" night. A number of visitors from other parts of the county were present, and following the work, a program was enjoyed and refreshments served. Mrs. Julia H. Selover entertained at dinner Sunday, guests being Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Buckmaster. 300 MUSICIANS INVITED HERE Anaheim will have another bi convention here, besides the industrial conference, if plans initiate by the Orange-co Branch of the Music Trades Ass'n of So.

George Fanning, the father, found his wife sitting on her bed with blood pouring from a knife wound in her neck. He called for his two children, Louis, 8, and Bernice, 7. Receiving no answer, he searched the house and found them in the next room, side by side on the bed, with a tightly drawn cord about the throats of each. Both were dead. They had been hanged by the mother from a plank on the top of a cement cistern in the potato bin. Then she applied the knife to her own throat.

Detering. of Amsterdam, Holland, is the first woman member of a stock exchange in that country. Women form 40 per cent of the attendance at boxing clubs in Los Angeles.

MacDonald of London, is a miniature painter of eminence, honorable secretary of the Royal Society of Miniature Painters and a director of two picture galleries. AUTOISTS PAY FOR DAMAGED TRAINS COLUMBUS, O., Aug. 13.—Motorists who have a thirst to race with death at grade crossings are up against a new problem in Ohio. When racing with a Scioto Valley Interurban train they either win by a length or so, or they lose place and show have been erased from the board. Should the gasoline jockey arrive at the grade crossing just a few seconds ahead of the train, he’s a candidate for the morgue or the hospital. If he attempts to cross the tape just a few seconds after the car takes the heat, his mail very shortly is certain to contain a bill from the interurban company for damages, if he recovers their cars. Speeders who disfigured the interurban cars before the inception of the pay-for-what-you-break plan thought they were lucky—many even considered themselves the winners—if they came thru without personal injury. Now, when they scan the bill for repairs to the several-ton inter-city car, they have a change of heart. Some women are the kind of housekeepers who would, if they were in charge of heaven, complain if someone tracked in some dust from the golden stair. Try a Classified Ad for results.

Following WOULD CHLOROFORM SUB-NORMAL TOTS MAKE EFFORT FOR EVACUATION PLAN LONDON, Aug. 13. — Premier Herriot of France, Premier Theunis of Belgium and Chancellor Mark of Germany met today in a supreme effort to work out a plan for evacuation of the Ruhr by Franco-Belgian troops. Premier Herriot insisted upon completing evacuation, including preferential treatment for Alsatian factories. The French and Belgians insisted upon a detailed settlement with Germany regarding their future commercial relations before submitting to a definite Ruhr evacuation plan. The French are especially anxious to safeguard Alsace-Lorraine industries. It was hoped that an agreement might be reached by night so that the conference could wind up tomorrow, but this appeared doubtful. The Germans were dubious of a speedy settlement, claiming the French asked so much it required careful consideration before making a decision. Conference committee No. 2 has drawn up a new report on payments in kind—deliveries of goods—to be submitted to the council of 14. The council was to have met this afternoon but postponed the meeting until tomorrow because the Ruhr negotiations had failed to reach an agreement at 1 o'clock. These negotiations were continued throughout the afternoon. Wide attention is being attracted by K. C. McLeod of Edmonton, Canada, educator who contends mentally subnormal children should be chloroformed to death and their parents isolated, as means of improving the human race. Emsley Beck, Everett Schneider, Nelson Barry, J. S. Wilmarth, Alfred Benney, Jimmy Wright, Yutake Yano, Kenneth Moore, Wilburt Benney, Stafford Minder, LaMont Wilson, Kenneth Tanaka, Marion Williamson, Paul eBalty, Glen Mathis and Tommy Kuechel. Three boys received their red triangle for the brown rag degree; Clayton Murdock, Gardiner Wilmarth and Rector Coons. A full list of those earning their camp emblems is not yet available. Sunday night was known as "decision night" and the expressed determination of the boys on that occasion gives some idea of the real moral and spiritual benefit of the annual summer "Y" camp. Numerous youths expressed a determination to continue with their daily Bible study, daily prayer, others make decisions as to their life's work and still others made public acceptance of Christ. The "eats" this year were all that could be asked for under the supervision of Chef Harry White and assisted by Edwin Beebe. About 175 boys have attended the "Y" camps this year from Orange-co at Camp Osceola and with the improvements planned for next year should make this site one of blossoms of a speedy settlement, claiming the French asked so much it required careful consideration before making a decision. Conference committee No. 3 has drawn up a new report on payments in kind—deliveries of goods—to be submitted to the council of 14. The council was to have met this afternoon but postponed the meeting until tomorrow because the Ruhr negotiations had failed to reach an agreement at 1 o'clock. These negotiations were continued throughout the afternoon. The Ruhr conferences sat two hours in their morning session. All were smiling and in good humor as they departed for lunch. Premier Herriot laughingly commented: "The conversations were very correct." The negotiations among the French, Belgians and Germans will be continued tonight. the finest in Southern California. Following is a list of those attending camp: J. S. Wilmarth, leader; Emsley Beck, Glen Mathis; Clayton Murdock, Everett Schneider; Marion Williamson, Jack Turner, Jimmy Wright, Paul Beauty. Tent 2—Coleman Hlekey, leader; Gardiner Wilmarth, Rector Coons, Kenneth Tanaka, Louis Lake, Robert Chaffee, Nelson Barry, Clyde Cupp, Bill Darnley. Tent 3—Arthur Coons, leader; Kenneth Moore, Allan Stirrat, Fred Slater, Donald Baum, Glen Peter, Safford Minder, Norman Ruoff, Tommie Kuechel. Tent 4—Alfred and Wilburt Benney, leaders; Dwayne Moore, Edward Ruoff, Max Knox, Yutaka Yano, LaMont Wilson, Lealle Dozier, Jack VanVorst and Lauren Healton.
