PASADENA, June 18.— The north side came strongly to the fore at the meatlng of the city council today. This »ectlon asked for three important concession*, tho laying of water mains In the north west part where there are none, the pur chase of Monk hill for a public park, and the re-establishing of the Lincoln a venire grade, eliminating the Salt Lake I .ridge. The Lincoln Avenue Improvement asso ciation was the body asking the addi tional water mains, and It is probable that tho North Pasadena Water company will consent to this move, for It fears that otherwise the city may order it to take Its mains off the streets. The improvement association also asked that the grade of Lincoln avenue at the Salt Lake crossing be elevated five feet. This would knock out tne bridge. This request was referred to the committee on streets. The request about- a public park came from the North Pasadena Improvement association and was referred to tho park commissioners.

POLITICAL BOSS IS ROUNDED UP PARKER GAID TO BE WITH AUTOISTS Identity Is Carefully Hidden, but One of His Henchmen Recognizes Chief on Way to Court Room Pasadena Agency 7 North Raymond Avenue, Phonee: Sunset 1807. Home 2124. PASADENA, June 18.— Today was auto mobile day for the local police, and tho echoing whispers "say that among the lot dragnetted was Walter Parker. Report also has It that the erstwhile political boss said after being dragged to tho police station that Pasadena is a "h of a town." Perhaps he was still recol lecting those letters to "Dear Walter." Be that as it may, Walter Parker's name does not appear in any of the police transactions, but it is said that he waa one of the occupants of the big car owned by H. W. Bailey of San Rafael Heights. This car was going at a rate of thirty miles an hour when timed by the police. It is said to have been num berless, but as luck would have it Police Commissioner Medlll, with his motorcycle, happened to be at hand and he gave chase and caught the big machine, arrest ing the driver. It Is said that It was at this juncture "Dear Walter" made hla remark about Pasadena. Eighteen automobiles and motorcycles were timed and found wanting during the past twenty-four hours. The police court was the busy place, and bo great was Its prosperity that Police Judge McDonald decided to raise the standard of fine from $15 to $56. This was not known when the auto In which Parker is said to have been riding was taken, so that the party only put up $15, and the police may go out after the political boas for another $10. If he is again called upon his re mark about Pasadena may become his torical. Had It not been for Police Commissioner Medlll and his motorcycle that big ma chine which belongs to Bailey would never have Been capiureu, and this is taken as another argument why the Pasa dent police should have one or more machines at their disposal. Under the wholesale timing of machines it has been discovered that many are paying abso lutely no attention to the state Taw re quiring numbers on such vehicles. In the case of motorcycles the machines do not have to be numbered, and unless the police absolutely recognize the rider well enough to swear to his identity In court there is no way of making an arrest, even If he is going sixty miles an hour. It was startling to notice that today the average speed of the machines timed was in excess of twenty-five miles an hour. The Pasadena speed limit is only fifteen miles an hour, and as the timing is done with stop watches over a measured course when a motorist is captured the police have him dead to rights.

CAST ADRIFT IN DANGEROUS SEA Young Architect Has Narrow Escape from Watery Grave While Try- Ing to Row in Big Breakers LONG BEACH, June 18. — Adrift in a heavy, swamping sea for two hours In a aixte'en-foot rowboat Ernest Creeth. the local representative of Train & Williams, Los Angeles architects, had a narrow escape from drowning yestor day. A combination of circumstances made his position exceedingly perilous. With Olaf Mlchelson, "Shorty" Ed wards and Charles Finck, Creeth started from San Pedro fn a two horsepower launch to tow a rowboat out to Michel son's yacht. Creeth climbed into the rowboat to tend the rudder. When the end of the breakwater was neared the sea became rougher and rougher and finally the cable joining the rowboat to the launch parted as the two boats rode the heavy Bwells. The men In the launch attempted to put about and gro to Creeth's assistance, but their engine became short-circuited and they were unable to do 80. Seiz ing the oars they rowed to the lee of the breakwater, where they repaired the engine, but as they started out toward the drifting rowboat again the engine broke down a second time and they were delayed a longer time than before. In the meantime the heavy rowboat was being rocked and tossed in the choppy sea. Creeth's frantic efforts to row the boat to a place of safety were unavailing an* frequently the terrific gale that was blowing carried the oars out of the locks. The young architect tied a handkerchief to the end of one of his oars and waved it aloft as a signal of distress, while the boat drifted out to sea and every moment threatened to capsize. Finally the three men in the launch were able to come to the rescue, and taking the boat again In tow started back toward San Pedro. As they neared that port the pro peller of tho launch broke with a snap and the hard-luck party was adrift again. All hands took to the oars again and rowed their way to the landing, reaching that blissful haven after night had fallen. |«K9.u'uan..^W.BIIIIIIRI.._M 881B BIM B lu M 111 Follow a long drive with one of 3|| Ilk I and see what a treat a game can be made. ■ill l| f ii|||||||l ||\ | Imperiales Cigarettes are chosen by dis- |*| || §i|l|||l|§l|f\'' | criminating sportsmen because of their exqui- S »|| IBBSlipiilll ;\\ i .Furthermore, they are rolled in thin mais | ill ||f ||||i|| » I ' paper — crimped, not pasted each one g JiiSllli) ' 13 ■■ vi | has its own , individual mouthpiece to cool a liiilr iilPli |\ ill W B The. men of the West smoked 100,000,000 la 1906. \ '11l !JOHN BOLLMAN COMPANY, San Francuco \ '^^3 /'' 111 "* HEART FAILURE VERDICT IS RENDERED BY JURY Special to The Herald.
