OPENS BOARDING HALL HOME FOR WOMEN IS NOW A REALITY Local Association Has 3641 Members and Is Planning Many Import. ant Additions to Its Work The boarding hall, for which the T- W. C. A. has planned and hoped ever since the association numbered a few dozen members occupying rooms on Second street, has become a reality. The association now has 3641 mem bers and the need of a place where young women alone in Los Angelea can have homelike surroundings at small cost, has been felt more keenly as the association grew. The organ ization Is the largest of its kind in the world and the women who are at the head of It have worked diligent ly for this latest addition. The building is situated at the cor ner of Twentieth street and Grand avenue. Yesterday there was a formal opening and all afternoon and evening guests filed In and out of the house to inspect the rooms and pause for a cup of tea in the cosy dining room. The house contains thirty rooms, including sleeping apartments, parlors, kitchen and dining room. All are large and newly furnished in the most home like manner possible. The house is surrounded on the front and sides by broad verandas. It was formally a family hotel. Miss Gertrude Gilbert is the house secretary and she has had much experience in this line of work, having occupied a similar posi tion with the association at Johns town, N. Y. Already nearly all the rooms have been taken and there will probably be many more applicants than can be accommodated. "When this home is no longer large enough we hope to start another in some other part of the city," said Mrs. Frank A. Dewey, the president of the association, yesterday afternoon. "We do not believe In having a houße too large, for then it is not so apt to be homelike. It will be better to have several houses, This is just a be ginning and we hope to do more." Prominent Los Angeles women who are members of the board of directors acted on the reception committee yes terday and some of the secretaries poured tea. Under the direction of Miss Margaret Henderson the house has been beau tifully decorated In the association colors. In the dining room where the tea tables were arranged the scheme was particularly attractive. Fancy bas kets of marguerites, yellow chrysan themums, white cosmos and ferns tied with bows of yellow satin ribbon oc cupied the center of each of the four tables and woodwardia ferns and yel low chrysanthemums bnnkerl the side board and mantel. Miss Cora L. Tatham, the general secretary, received with members of the hoard, who included Mesdames Frank A. Dewey. A. S. Avrrlll, F. T. Blcknell, Wm. 11. Barnard, Rose T. Bullard. H. \V, Rrodbeck.

PAY TRIBUTE TO • MARTYRED KING GUSTAVUS ADOLPHUS HONORED BY SWEDES Los Angeles Citizens Adore Memory of the Man Who Stood for Free. ' dom — Excellent Program Is Rendered "Gustavus Adolphus was the greatest king on earth and had it not been for his influence Protestantism would not now be In existence, and Catholicism would have held greater sway than it does today," said Rev. Herbert J. Weaver in his address last evening at the Gustavus Adolphus festival in Blanchard hall. The festival was opened with prelim inary remarks by G. Eckdahl, the chairman, who expressed regrets that the seating capacity of the hall was inadequate for the large gathering seeking admission. The program was enlivened by the participants, who wore the national costumes so dear to the hearts of all from Sweden. B. R. Baumgardt delivered an ad dress and recitation eulogizing the king as a warrior and Christian who had faith in his God and a great lover of liberty, and who was trusted by his people. Rev. E. Nelander, A. M., Ph.D., em phasized the fact that if It had not been for the beloved king whose fes tival was celebrated there would not only have been no Protestantism, but no Declaration of Independence, and slavery would have reigned through out the world. The speaker linked the lives o[ Abraham Lincoln- and Gustn vus Adolphus, both having been mar tyrs tn their countries. The speaker closed by saying: Honor Memory of King "King Gustavus Adolphus, we adore thy memory in Sweden and in the United States. Thy heritage will de scend to us all, enshrining thy love in our hearts." Following is the program rendered: March, "Popularity," Erlckson's Swedish orchestra; prayer, Rev. E.

ANGRY CITIZENS FLAY COUNCIL PICO HEIGHTS PEOPLE AT THE BOILING POINT Mass Meeting Held to Object to Pro. posed Crematory — Speakers Hurl Heated Epithets at Munici pal Officials Masonic hall at Pico and El Mollno streets was crowded last night with in dignant residents of Pico Heights, who held a public mass meeting to consider what steps can be taken to prevent a crematory from being erected at the corner of Sixteenth and Grover streets. Two hundred ' ipeople were present, among them many ladles, who were equally emphatic with the men In ex pressing themselves against the pro posed enterprise. It was decided to circulate an initiative and referendum petition. L. M. Fall of 1531 Vermont avenue acted as chairman, and Miss Fannie Fullerton of 2482 Scpulvcda street as secretary. L. M. Schaeffle, pastor of the Pico Heights Congregational church, was one of the first to speak against the crematory. Mr. Schaefflo alluded to the work of the city council as being very unsatisfactory. He spoke of their action at the meeting held last Mon day, when they refused to pass an ordi nance against the crematory. Says Council Was Fixed The ordinance that was submitted to a vote of the council was one legislat ing against the establishment and oper ating of any more crematories within the city limits. It was filed. In part Mr. SchaefHe said: "We should bo more careful In selecting the men that are to represent us in the next council. It seems strange to me that out of a population of nearly 200,000 it is so hard to find six honest men. I do not mean to Insinuate that the present councilmen are not honest, but I am convinced that they were fixed on the question of this crematory." Speeches made by other residents were equally as antagonistic to the councilmen, and one man, D. H. McFaul of 2828 Sepulveda street alluded to them as a lot of rascals, and suggested that enough money bo raised to buy them the next time a proposed ordi nance was submitted to them. Defends President Summer-land Councilman Theodore Hummerland, who was elected from the Fourth ward, was discussed by a number of the resi dents. Some favored Summerlanrt, others were sure that he did not try to push through the ordinance. A hot debate took place between W. S. Lang and Mrs. B. Taylor on the manner In which Summerland did his duty at tho session of the city council last Mon day. Mrs. Taylor was strong in her defense of Summerland. She said: "I know that Mr. Summerland tried to get the other members of the coun Some skin diseases are active in Summer, while others wait until cole weather to manifest themselves. Winter Eczema sleeps in the system through the long hot months, and gives no sign of its presence; but at the coming oi Winter the trouble asserts itself and it becomes one of the most painful and aistressing of all skin diseases. The blood is filled with poisonous acids which seem to be excited by the cold; and as these are thrown off through the pores and glands, the skin cracks and bleeds, the flesh becomes hot and feverish and the itching intense. The natural oils which keep the skin soft and pliant are dried up by the cold, bleak winds, causing it to. become hard and dry, giving it that shiny, leathery appearance, characteristic of the disease. The head, face, hands and feet are the usual points of attack, though other parts of the body may be affected. So painful and distressing is the trouble that the sufferer constantly 41 doctors" and treats It trying to get relief.

He knew before he went Into the meeting that it was lost and he was defeated for he had talked with them about it. Ht told me that It would be impossible to push It through, but that he was willing to fight for It until the last." S. D. Darrow of 1421 Dewey street, W. S. Lang of 540 Pico street and George L. McGahn of 2828 Sepulveda street were appolnteed on a committee to draw up resolutions condemning the action of the council In refusing to pass the ordinance that was sub mitted to them. The resolutions In part read: "Re solved, That we pledge ourselves, Indi vidually and collectively, to exert every energy to stop the building of a crema tory in our midst; and should we fail in this direction we pledge ourselves by all honorable means to prevent the building being used as a crematory. . "Resolved, That the city council of the city of Los Angeles, by their con duct in refusing to protect the people of Pico Heights from the erection of a crematory on the corner of Sixteenth and Grover streets in said city, be and are hereby denounced as unfaithful to their trust, false to their sworn duty and unfit representatives of the Intel ligence of the people and a disgrace to the city. Demand Recall of Council "Resolved, That we need honest men to represent us in the next council, as millions of dollars are at their disposal and millions of graft In sight, and we demand the recall of the present coun cil." It was moved that a copy of the resolutions be sent each councilman and a copy be sent to the several news papers In the city. After the ereading of the resolutions, which was wildly cheered, it was moved to circulate an initiative and referendum petition, which will de mand that the present ordinance on file before the council be made a law or submitted to a vote of the people. The petition must have at least 4250 names signed to it to have its effect. A committee was appointed to draft and circulate it. Before adjourning steps were taken to form a permanent organization for the prevention of any en^rprise that is disagreeable to the neighborhood, The name for the organization was selected as the Pico Heights Improve ment association. Another meeting will^be held in the near future. San Francisco Man Kills Himself By Associated Press. SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 10.— O. W.
