WEARY TRAVELING MAN
WANTED BANQUET HALL
First Drummer to Stop at the New
Lankershim Hotel la Not
Backward
The first wearied traveling man to
avail himself of the commodious ele
gance of the new Lankershim hotel
strolled up to the clerk's desk yester
day afternoon and registered as "W. W.
.Williams, Springfield, Mass.
Williams is the representative of the
Tabor-Prang Art company of Spring
field, Mass., and \ when he requested
that he be given the largest sized sam
ple room that the hotel contained he
was promptly accommodated. An hour
later a dray drew up before the rear
entrance bearing six trunks, each the
size of a small California bungalow.
Twenty minutes later another dray
backed up to the curb. It bore an
equal number of trunks of even larger
dimensions.
Williams was asked by the manage
ment if he could get along with a sin
gle floor. He replied that he thought
he could, but he would prefer the
banquet hall on. the first floor, which
would be easy of access to his cus
tomers.
The moderateness of the demand,
coming from a traveling man, and the
fact that Williams was the first
drummen to stop at the new hotel
gained the day, and the Prang Art
company's samples now adorn the walls
of the banquet hall. -'"* <■'-
"HEINY" SPIES' DOG IS
CHARGED WITH MISBEHAVIOR
Los Angeles Ball Player Accused of
Keeping a Vicious
Canine
"Helny" Spies, catcher for the Los
Angeles baseball team, is in the tolls
of the law and for the next few duys
may be juggling legal terms Instead of
baseballs.
A warrant was issue yesterday for
the arrest of the back stop, charging
him with keeping a vicious dog. The
complaint was issued by City Attorney
Frederlckson and while the attorney
may not receive any free passes as a
result of his action he will receive the
good will of a number of residents of
the southeastern section of Los Ange
les who say Spies' dog is a nuisance.
William H. Hudson of 2116 Griffith av
enue swore to the complaint. Hudson
charges Spies passed his residence
Tuesday evening and that the ball
catcher was accompanied by a great
St. Bernard dog, The dog ran into the
Hudson yard and attacked Lena Hud
von, a 9-year-old girl, and bit her In the
hand. Other children In the neighbor
hood will appear as witnesses ngainst
the dog. -;; ; '.-'■

BITTER FIGHT ON
HAYS EVIDENCE
ATTORNEYS CONTEST EACH
.STEP OF PROCEEDINGS .
Counsel for the ex.Cashler Declares
That He Was Not In Charge
When the Accounts Were
Juggled - -
The attorneys for the prosecution of
H. T. Hays, who is charged with hav
lngr wrecked the Orange Growers' Na
tional bank of Riverside, are making a
strong- uphill fight In their case as out
lined to the jury In the opening state
ment made by United States Attorney
Valentine.
The attorneys representing the for
mer cashier of the defunct institution
have contested each point made by the
prosecution.
A story of Riverside county politics
In the days when Tom Hays was a po
litical king has been injected into the
trial of the case, and to the spectator
unfamiliar. with the case it might ap
pear that, the contesting attorneys are
investigating : the political record of
some fallen statesman.
M. J. Twogood, who succeeded Hays
as cashier of the defunct bank, was the
main witness called yesterday by the
federal attorneys.
The witness testified as to the dispo
sition made of the documents of the
wrecked bank when . the. doors were
closed. It appears that the books and
papers of the institution were placed
in the custody of National Bank Ex
aminer Wilson, who was appointed as
the receiver of the bank.
Twogood was employed by the bank
examiner until January 23 last, and he
identified the minute book of the bank,
which also contains the record showing
the bank's reorganization into a na
tional institution.
On cross-examination he testified
that when Hays was away from his
duties he had acted as the cashier. The
defense then made a strong effort to
prove that the defendant is not guilty,
for the reason that at the time the
illegal acts which he is alleged to have
committed other officials were in con
trol. "
The original minutes were introduced
by United States Attorney "Valentine.
The defense objected ', to' the Inter
pretation of the alleged memorandum
In writing of what occurred at 'pertain
meetings held by the board of direct
ors, but the objection "waa overruled.
The case . will be resumed this
morning.-*'

record for marksmanship and on previ
ous excellence officers of the regiment

: .The competition is open to all the
national guardsmen In the states

J Brigadier General H. Wankowski said
yesterday, "I have received no official
notification of the selection of national
guardsmen to represent the state. at the
coming tournament, so that I know, lit
tle about it but I am sure that there
will be a number from the regiment
who will contest for places on the team.
"Among the different companies we
have some excellent shots and at the
last tournament a number were placed
In the "distinguished marksman' class.
Company M of Riverside ranks first In
this regard with 'eight men.

promised rifle range the Los Angeles
companies will" have opportunity for
practice. Yesterday Col, W. G. Schret
ber Inspected the. tract of land on the
Mission road not far from Eastlake
park and reported favorably, I have,
forwarded his report to Sacramento

"The range will include opportunities
for practice at 200, 300, and 800 yards,
