Out of work and In a pitiable state
of destitution, his clothes worn to rngs
and his skin dirty from tramp life, n
poor unfortunate applied at the Salva
tion Industrial home In East First
street severnl rlnys njro for assistance
He had just arrived In Los Angeles,
having walked all the wny from Colo
rado,
"I -want a little help," he said to
Captain Campbell; just a little some
thing till I can get on my feet and
find work."
"What can you do?" asked the cap
tain.
"Anything," wns the reply.
"Well, you are In pretty bad shape,"
said the captain, "but we are here to
help everyone In need. Are you willing
to work for what you get?"
"Try me," wan the eager response.
"Will you let u« give you a bath— i
good scrubbing — before we give you
some clean clothes to wear?"
"Whatever wiu say."
Bo the ciiptiwn detailed an assistant
to give the man a bath — the first in
months, he said.
After the bnth the man was given n
clean suit of clothes. and b good meal
and then was set to work In the funr.
ture repairing department, where he
will remain until a Job la found for
him outside.
Is Now Happy
"He's the happiest man you evtr
saw," said one of the Salvationist?.
"All day Friday he went around whist
ling and singing ;is if he'd found v
paradise on earth."
From his story told to Captain
Campbell It was learned that before
the man left Colorado he was a miner
earning fair wages. One day there
was an explosion and four fingers were
blown off one hand and an eye put
out. There were other injuries be
sides nnd a long siege in a hospital
followed, taking all his pavings. Then
he started to California, the land ;>f
promise, where there would surely be
work and plenty. On the way he was
unfortunate and unable to get work
thnt he could do and was forced to
live like the ordinary hobo much of
the time. ■■'
This is one of the many cases that
pass through the Salvation Industrial
home, where a great human reclama
tion work Is being done. What the
Rescue home is to the unfortunate
woman, the Industrial home 1b to the
man who is down. To every man who
asks; help is given. ; There is but one
stipulation: he must work if he is able,
if it is only for a few hours. The
work is an unfailing test in separating
the shiftless and unworthy from the
honest unfortunate.
Work of the Home
An average of twenty-three men a
day are taken care of by the homo.
In nddition (o being boarded In tne
clean, but simple establishment, th»
men are paid cash wages for their
work.
The work is done in the large ware
house at the home, In which Is gath
ered all the waste of the city, sucli
as old clothing, shoes, furniture,
stoves, iron, bottles, rags, magazines
and newspapers. The material, cleaned
and repaired, is sent to the store in
front and to the four other Industrial
stores In the city, where it Is sold.
A shoemaker, a tailor and a sewing
woman are kept busy repairing the
clothing and getting It in condition to
sell, while two clerks in each of thu
stores have all they can do each day
in passing it over the counters to the
hundreds of humble purchasers.
There are four wagons constantly
employed in the salvage work, gather
ing the waste from the homes in all
parts of the city.
The remarkable thing about the In
dustrial home is that It is self-sup
porting. It receives no cash donations
and asks for none. All it needs to
carry on the work of Its human repair
shop Is the city's Junk. By utilizing
it means are furnished to aid the out
of-work, the despairing man, in the
best way— by helping him to help him
self.
An Attack of Croup Warded Off
"Our little girl, two and one-half
years old, woke up coughing with the
oroup one evening recently. We hap
pened to have some of Chamberlain's
Cough Hemedy on hand and gave her
two doses of it. Slip went back to
sleep and woke up next morning with
out a trace of cold. It Is certainly n,
great medicine," says A. J. Luginblll,
editor of Star, Villa Ulca, Ga. An at
tack of croup can always be warded
off by giving this remedy as soon aa
the croupy cough appears. It has been
in use for many years and has never
been known to fall. It contains no
opium or other harmful drug and may
be given to the smallest child with
perfect confidence. For sale by all
leading druggists.

STORY OF FEUD
IN OLD KENTUCKY
PLENTY OF BLOOD AND THUN
DER IN GRAND'S BILL
MELODRAMAS OPEN FOR WEEK
Burbank's Offering, "Lost In the Dea.
ert," is as Original In Many
Respects as Title
Implies
As a melodrama "The Black Hand,"
has unusual claims on the attention of
the class of theatergoers who enjoy that
style of play. It is a story well con
ceived and cleverly wrought out, and it
has enough blood and thunder to satis
fy the most extravagant demands for
revolvers and long, ugly looking knives.
In addition It Is well acted through
out. Almost every principal In the cast
displays remarkable talent for that par
ticular style of work. Some of them
flnd'dlfhculty -with the negro part and
tha coarse comedy, but in view of the
almost continuous audible appreciation
of the audience these cannot be con
sidered as faults.
It Is a »tory of a feud In Kentucky
hills, and the theme is not new In Loa
Angeles. The hero returns to his home
to fall in love with a daughter of the
enemies' ' house, and these modern
Capulets and Montagues have a time
that is strenuously In keeping with the
spirit of the age.
Richard .Buhler does particularly good
work as the hero of the play. Both he
and Ethel Clifton have won a warm
place in the hearts of the Grand pat
rons In the few weeks they have been
there.
John Harrington deserves praise for
his finished melodramic art In the
"heavy" role. The others of the cast
are good, and the play is well staged.
Burbank's Bill Good
The Burbank Stork company yester
day opened a week's bill In a startling
creation called, "Lost In the Desert,"
and both performances were given the
usual enthusiastic reception by the
audience.
The story 'of the play jumps from the
deok of the "Mary Jane" to a raft on
the open sea. . Then It takes the cast to
a cave on the desert, where the favor
ite.William Desmond Is In serious dan
ger of "'starving:. The three scenes In
act 111 are labeled as follows: ! "The
Arab Prison," "On • the Desert" and
"Uack to the Cave." Act IV is "The
Arab Camp." .•■ . ' •
So It can be seen that In some ie
■peL'ts. the play Is us original as the

filled with all of the old and customary
thrills placed In unusual settings.
The cast is displayed to excellent ad
vantage. Blanche Hall Is sweet and
natural in the role of Helen Bradford,
and Jessie Mac Hall Is pleasing In the
Ingenue role. Henry Stockbrldge Is also
well suited.
Mason Opera House
Tonight at the Mason the jolly lot of
fun makers will assemble to do justice
to the latest vehicle In the fun factory
line "I. O. 1T.," to be presented by the
Kolb and Dill company of farceurs,
singers and dancers. This Is the first
time that "I. O. U." has been presented
In this city. It enjoyed v tremendous
run when presented by this same com
pany in San Francisco and Oakland.
Kolb and Dill are jolly comedians

done much to make dramas of this
character a success. "I. O. U." will be

two nights and for the Saturday mat

Kearney was divorced from his wife
r little over two years ago, and ever
since the decree was Issued, it Is al
leged, he has made attempts to kill
her. Mrs., Kearney says she managed
to keep out of his way, and even left
the city In order 'to make him think
she had left the country.
Found Dynamite Cartridge*
Recently Mrs. Kearney returned to
Los Angeles and secured a position
with a tailoring firm In the Wilson
building. One day last week she dis
covered that some one had placed two
dynamite cartridges under a clothes
pressing board over which she worked,
presumably to assassinate her. The
cartridges were removed. Mrs. Kear
ney told the police she suspected her
former husband.
Yesterday Kearney made himself
known. He went to the house in which
Mrs. Kearney Is living, and after being
denied admittance declared that he
would tear the place down and kill his
■wife, according to Mrs. Kearney's
story.
Kearney was formerly a well known
and prosperous grocer of Santa Bar

his hand at assaying. Mrs. Kearney,
