Certain Provision In City Charter De.

vent Proposed Use of
Tax Levy
Pstndena Agency, .

PASADENA, Aug, 25.— Tnere Is a
probability that th> courts will be
called upon within the next ten days
for a decision as to whether or not the
city of Pasadena has the right to use
a portion of the tax levy for the con
struction of a municipal electric light
ing plant.
The certainty of a practical doubling
of city taxes at a time when other de
mands upon the citizens' pocketbook
are greater than usual has served to
;set many people against the mayor's
■plan, and these people have quietly
'bten seeking some way of calling a halt
■In the carrying out of this plan.
' No person has as yet come out boldly
into the open as willing to- carry tho
matter into the courts, but It is certain
that at least one local attorney has
been- retained to search for a way of
calling a halt to the project. This at
torn«y, who for obvious reasons refuses
to allow the present use of his name,
believes that he has found a clause in
the city charter which prohibits such a
use of the tax levy.
The clause In question reads: "The
city council shall have power to levy
and collect taxes and assessments for
• city purposes on all property within the
' city which is by law taxable for state
land county. purposes."
I The attorney claims that the words
'"tor city purposes" cover the case per
fectly and that the courts are not likely
■to maintain that the erection of an eled
;trio lighting plant which shall light the
; streets and furnish electricity to prl
■v«t« citizens as well can come under
this classification.
I Friends of the administration assert
th.it this clause in no manner forbids
[the municipal plant as projected— and
i there you arel
I It Is certain that were the suit pro
' posed begun the work of construction'
would again be delayed, even though It
: might be but temporary.
Fire Teaches Lesson
A lively fire on the north side early
this morning gave another object lesson
of certain other pressing needs,' say a
' number of citizens who were attracted
to the place. So far removed from tho
; North Pasadena district, where the fire
.occurred, was the nearest fire depart
iroent house that it took all qf forty-five
; minutes for the earliest fire fighters
';imi apparatus to reach the spot.
! By that time the fire was too far
under headway to admit of profitable
. extinguishment. Then, too, It is said
".that no fire hydrants were within reach
,of the doomed building, had the depart
ment even arrived in time to be of use.
: These citizens assert that it is far
• more important that adequate fire pro
jection be provided at this time than
jthat allUhe city's resources be taxed to
.erect a. municipal lighting plant, which
Ithey claim is of doubtful economy at
Ibest.

iNARROWLY ESCAPES DEATH
Crown City Contractor Is Entangled
With Live Wire and Nearly
Electrocuted
| Bpeclal to The Herald.
• PASADENA, Aug. 25. — Commissioner
W. C. Crowell had a narrow escape
from being electrocuted this afternoon,
; though fortunately he escaped with
nothing more serious than a nerve
'.wracking shock.
; Mr. Crowell Is the contractor for
,the new Braly block now in course of
construction on South Raymond avenue
'end It was while helping about the
building that the accident occurred.
■ Employes of the Edison electric com
pany were working on the wires along
the street when suddenly a live wire
was accidentally let loose in the air
above tho workmen, on the Braly
block. The. death-dealing wire whirled
through the air and with a sputter aa
of anger coiled about the limbs of
Crowell as he stood unconsciously di
recting his men.
The loosened end of the wire lay in a
pool of water and the released current
caused the water to boll and hiss, show
ing the danger which lay in the wire.
Crowell quickly understood the situa
tion he was facing and in spite of the
pain shooting through his body kept
his hands clear of the wire as he shout
ed to his workmen for help. By the
use of beams of wood the wire was
slowly and carefully uncoiled and its
victim released.
| Fortunately Crowell did not receive
the full force of tho current and lives
to tell the tale. But the experience ho
does not care to repeat.

PEEKABOO BUG
SHOCKS AVAION
DAN CUPID IS MOST TERRIBLY
DISCOURAGED
Girls Forced to Abandon Swiss Cheese
Lingerie and Eschew Dip at
the Fashionable
Hour
Special to The Herald
AVALON, Aug. 24.— Society at thin
seaside parndlxn Is shocked by the ap
pearance of the peekaboo bug. The
first knowledge of the Inviiplou of the
mystic Isle by the terror to summer
girls was when Miss Ethyl Perkins,
who is here with her father, a wealthy
mine owner of Tucson, failed to appear
nt the beach at the fashionable hour
Thursday.
To the disappointment of the John
nies M+ss Perkins later appeared in a
solid silk waist and black skirt. She
Bftld she was not going for her morn-
Ing swim.
Friday three more popular bellos
dropped from the ranks of the swim
mers and today the news of the peek-/
nbon bug was all over the magic isle.
The bug takes as a. shining mark tho
plump pink shoulders of the apple
cheeked summer girl.
Once Stung, a society girl in her
bathing suit discloses a series of rod
spots on her plump neck that are most
marring to her beauty .
Al Spooner of Denver has declared
his intention to go home. It la telleved
the peekaboo bug has hastened the
popular young man's departure.
Mr. Spooner came to Avalon two
weeks ago last Sunday and the follow
ing Tuesday he was seen taking an
auburn haired young mips in bathing.
As he held her little hands and Jumped
her up and down In the water, the glim
mer of the sunlight in her hair dazzled
him. Bathers standing near heard
him begin:
"Girlie, I must tell you how much I
lo " but the conversation suddenly
broke off. He had stepped on a slippery
stone and went down, taking the maid
en with him. When they were pulled
out her hair hung In ungraceful mops
around her face and she was— well,
mad. that evening Al read his flrsi
from Chapter XXIII.
Stung Again
The oldest Inhabitant cannot discov
er where the next scene occurred, but
the third was with a pretty black eyed
miss from Onhkosh. He had met her
at the dance the night before and im
mediately made arrangements to go
rowing the following night. In some
Inexplicable manner they found them
selves at Lovers' cove. Maybß it was
the mon, or perhaps it was the tinkling
of the little wavelets did It, but at any
rate— blush, gentle reader, blush twice
—he kissed her.
The other couples obligingly put their
fingers In their ears— the fingers of the
hand that wasn't engaged— but one old
reprobate who had "stagged it" — his
summer days be,ing past— had the te
merity to listen. And this Is what he
hfard: • : \'.'
"Beautiful moon, Bessie."
"Charming. And the beams fall so
gently on tha ripples."
"Yes. Do you know, Bessie, I'm so
glad the government has exterminated
the kissing bug. The summer it held
sway was an awful one."
"Yes, Al; but do you know they say
there's a new kind, the peekaboo
bug. I'm almost- afraid to wear this
waist any more."
"I don't believe in it, Girlie, dear lit
tle girl. I've brought you out here to
tell you something. I'm mighty lone
some and I'd like you to "
Stung!
The peekaboo bug had found an
aperture which his arm didn't cover.
Sadly they strayed back to the hotel.
Me leaves for Denver tomorrow, the
city where bugs do not break through
and Sting.
MILLER PLEADED GUILTY
Pasadena Expressmen Are Variously
Moved In Cruelty Case— Herr

Special to The Herald.
PASADENA, Aug. 25.-Frank S.
Horr, proprietor of the Pasadena and
Los Angeles express, will be tried be
fore Justice Klamroth and a Jury of
twelve meu on Monday, September 3.
Herr and his two employes, John Mil
ler and. H. H. Anderson, were ar
raigned today on the charge of bitching
a mare to the rear of a hay wagon and
beating the animal and dragging it
until Its injuries were such that it had
to be shot to put It out of its misery.
The charge U preferred by Humane
Officer McAney, and If the story us
told Is true the action constitutes onn
of the most Inhuman on record In this
city.
Miller entered the plea of guilty this
forenon and threw himself on the mer
cy of the court. Herr and Anderson,
however, retained Attorneys Simpson
and Moody and announced that they
would fight to a finish. Judge Rossiter
will represent the Humane society in
the prosecution and a rather sensa

Justice Klamroth will sentence Mil

GBEAT SERPENT
LEAVES ITS! AIR
SAN GABRIEL RIVER HARBORS
MONSTER
Campers Above Azusa Fire Hundreds
of Shots at Strange Ophidian,
Which Comes From Fis
sure In Mountains
Special to The Herald.
ASSUBA, Aug. 25.— With wings ex
tended so that they rested on the water
like a web, covering- the surface for a
distance of ten feet on either side, a
wntpr monster swept down the San
Gabriel river near Azusa this morning,
and while more than a dozen campers
pumped shot at the creature from Win
chester rifles the great snake slowly
disappeared in the water and was final
ly lost from sight at a sudden turn of
the stream. .
As a result of the monster's appear
ance campers nnd tourists in the vicin
ity are spending much of their time fol
lowing the river trails In the hope of
catching sight of tho drend beast again,
but thus far no damage from settle
ments In the neighborhood have been
reported, and aside from the lucky ones
who thronged the river bank on the
hour of the snake's appearance, nnd by
re-ports brought In by two prospectors
of the lower hills who saw the monster
in the waters of the river, nothing has
been heard from It.
The camp 3 in the neighborhood of
Azusa have been unusually well popu
lated this season because of the fact
that huge fissures have appeared In tho
Sierra Madres, probably caused by re
cent earthquakes. These places have
been curiously examined by students
and by the usual number of campers,
and one theory aa to the water mon
ster's appearance is that he came from
some substerrnnean passage of the San
Gabriel river, nnd losing his way con
tinued down the stream until he again
entered one of the fissures. •
Saurian or Ophidian?
At any rate, about three miles above
the spot where the monster was first
seen the San Gabriel swings within 100
feet of an unusually. deep fissure. From
the depths of the cut can be heard the
rush of subterranean waters, but no
light penetrates far enough to show the
hidden caverns.
The monster,' according to the state
ments of those who not only saw It
but shot at it, was about the 'Size of a
pony In the body, with wings about
twenty feet -wide, from tip to tip. The
head resembled the head of a snake,
while the color was of a grayish white,
common to subterranean creatures.
The entire body was covered with slime.
The eyes were white and distended, and
apparently the beast could not see, but
was guiding himself by a sense of
direction. The first camper who saw It
gave a yell of surprise, and with others
began firing. It is thought that one of
the shots took effect in the animal's
neck, as the great tail lashed the water
in a fury and the body quickly began
to disappear under water. A thousand
feet farther down stream the campers
again beheld the monster as it waved
its head high above the waters, and
then the great wings, closed over the
back of the water, became submerged
and the campers lost sight of It.
Ripples on the water showed for some
distance down stream until all trace
of the monster was lost.
A careful watch is being kept on tho
river by forest rangers and campers,
and if the creature appears again some
of the eastern Institutes may have a
remarkably good specimen of a strange
ophidian or saurian.
. Harry Morse and Bill Brown, the fer
rymen at Austin's . crossing, have an
nounced their determination to cap
ture the monster, and they are con
structing a net made of a section of
Page wire fence. The ferrymen say
their net Is horse-high, hog-tight and
bull-strong. They believe It will hold
the winged horror.
The efforts of these river men are
watched with great Interest.
LOOK FOR A BUSY SEASON
Pasadena i Builders Have Some Fear
of a Labor Famine Because of
Exodus to San Francisco
Special to The- Herald.
PASADENA, Aug. 25.— Grant Orth
of the Orth Van and Storage company
announces that •within the next month
he will erect a JIO.OOO hj-ick storage
warehouse at the corner of Mary street
and Vernon avenue.
The brick building at the rear of the
Chamber of Commerce building Bite on
Colorado street was recently bought by
Orth and this material will be used in
the new warehouse. It Is proposed to
make tho warehouse thoroughly mod
ern with all the latest appliances for
handling goods. It will be three stories
in height.
This Is only one' of the extensive
building operations planned for next
month and contractors are looking for
ward to a busy and prosperous season.
There Is one "fly in the ointment,"
however, and that is the fear that
there is to be a scarcity of skilled labor
during the season about to open. Seven
painters went to San Francisco on one
train this week and carpenters and
other skilled laboring men have been
gradually drifting away, attracted by
the high -wages offered them in the
northern city, until the outlook Is some
what disturbing. /
On September 1 carpenters will be
gin to receive a higher wage, according
to advices of the local union, but
whether or no this will prevent the ex
odus is another question. Then, even
if It does, contractors are wondering
what they can do in the matter of ac
cepting Jobs for completion early In
the season. It will mean higher prices
and a considerable uncertainty as td
being able to deliver the goods.
There is nome fear that a rise In the
price of material is scheduled for Sep
tember 1 also, and until that date Is
well past few contracts are likely to be
signed In this city.

CHILDHEN HAVE
PEABLY EYES
ILLINOIS FAMILY CREATES MUCH
WONDERMENT
Scientists Mystified by Miracle of th*
' Stork, Which Brings to Klsh
waukee Wee One* With
Rainbow Eyes
Special to The Herald.
KINGSTON, 111.. Aug. 25.— DeKalb
of freak children In the world, the four
daughters and two sons of Mr. and
Mrs. Joel Watklns, who reside near
this village, being provided with eyes
of entirely different hues, and each of
them resembling some tint of the
rainbow.
Physicians have accounted for the
extraordinary birthmarks (for such
they are said to be) by pointing to th*
fact that the mother has assisted her
husband for years in earning a liveli
hood by hunting for pearls, working
for days In the Klshwaukee river with
out Interruption nnd during that tlmo
opening thousands of brightly colored
clam shslls.
The first three children born to Mr.
and Mrs. Watklns were no different
from thousands of other children which
the stork brings to northern Illinois
annually, with the exception that their
eyes contained round white marks
where they should have been entirely
of brown, blue or gray.
The fourth child exhibited pink eyes
to the village physician who attended
the mother, and is still provided with
the same colored optics.
Eyes Resemble Pearlls
But even this Incident failed to at
tract more than ordinary Interest
among the medical men who heard of,
the strange case, and once more Mrs.
Watklna and her husband became clam
diggers and peftrl hunters in the Kiah
waukee.
The fifth child was marked in the
game peculiar manlier as the fourth,
but with the pink coloring matter of
the eye being "more decidedly pink"
than the babe born two years previous.
But the sixth babe to enter the
household of Mr. and Mrs. Watklns
surprised even those who have become
accustomed to look for freakish eyes
when the Btork arrives at the humble
home on the banks of the river. The
little tot's eyes are pale blue and a.t
Intervals of five or ten minutes a light
which can only be described as phos
phorescent In its nature glows for an
lrstant from each pupil.
The attending physician declares the
child Is perfectly formed and fas
healthy as any babe in the neighbor
hood, but the strange light puzzles
everyone who has had the opportunity
of seeing it, and today the physicians
from every surrounding town are hero
to make a thorough examination of the
babe's optics.
Dr. J. C. Mclntyre, who has attended
the mother for years, has offered Mr.
AVatkins a princely sum to take tho
child, or, if he prefers, the whole
family, to Chicago or New York and
there give the world an opportunity of
seeing the greatest freak of nature ever
exhibited. - ■ .
The father, however, who is only
comfortably fixed financially, has so far
refused to entertain the Idea of ex
hibiting his "pearl-eyed" children.
"They are very dear to us," he said
to a newspaper representative, "and
I don't believe I will go about the
country with any sideshow business."
But Mrs. Watkins favors the plan
proposed by Dr. Mclntyre, arguing that
the money obtained in this manner
could be put to good use ln> educating
the children.
"I don't want my boys and girls to
become pearl hunters and clam dig
gers," she said, as the reporter left tho
humble cabin on the banks of the Klsh
waukee.

LONG BEACH. Aug. 28.— 1f Sher
lock Holmes had arrived at this de
llnhtful seurldn redort today and found
himself nnywliere In the vlclntty of
West Oc#nn avenue his peculiar gift
of deduction would have told him that
a healthy ntid full grown member of
the genus merhltls rnephltiea had been
in that vicinity. He would also have
been able to have deducted that the
animal had born thrown Into art 111
humor übout something.
There 1* no doubt that the renowned
detective would have Instantly recog
nized these fi.tts. Even oiifl of Long
Ueaeh's most recently acquired police*
l.ien made this discovery und d&duc
tlo:\ whon ho approached the H&nr
bland of Hennesy A Lucas on West
Ocean avenue jesterday afternoon. Th»
officer gave vent to an inelegant but ex
pressive statement: "aewhllllkerl
they'd been a skunk around here."
The statement was correct.
The salesman who presides over the
soda water fountain at this popular
cigar stand has been much annoyed by"
rats. The rhodents are big and strong
and have carried off things of value.
Hence the heavy trap set beheath tho
fountain where the applechecked tour
ist maids are wont to get their nut
sundaes and other good things.
Something Told the Clerk
When the clerk reached the store this
morning something told him he had
been successful .with his trap.
He could almost guess what the trap
contained.
With the aid of a long pole and much
perserverance the wire trap was dis
lodged. An attempt was made to
chloroform the animal.
A rush was made for a gallon of
chloroform and a barrel of deodorant.
The animal seemed to .like the chlo
roform and lapped up that portion of
the volatile fluid which didn't evapor
ate before It could swallow It.
Then Llllo Duckling, the village cut
up, butted in with a suggestion which
appealed to those, who wanted to cSlfc
pose of the captive in a gentle man
ner.
If every member of the crowd had
worn a gold ' medal donated by the
Bands of Mercy they couldn't have gone
about the disposal of the pretty black
and white cat with greater gentleness.
"Let's chuck 'Im offen the end of the
pier," said Lillo.
"Oh, flneheymer," Bald the manipu
lator of the chloroform polte," "but
who's goln' to carry him down the
pier?"
"I'll carry him down and chuck him;
off for six bits," said ttfe- mad wag.
"You're on!" shouted the group of
prominent merchants who stood about
200 feet to the windward of the thriv
ing scene.
A collection was quickly taken and
six bits in g6od money and a smooth
Canadian dime found its way Into the
funny man's pocket.
With Mephitica swung to the end of
the long pole and Llllo far in the lead,
a sad and respectful procession wended
its way to witness the last act of the
trage'dyv
"Shall I chuck dls smell cat offen the
end?" askvd the humorist.
"Yes, about four miles off," shouted
the prominent men.
Arid It -was done.
