PASADENA WILL HAVE
ANOTHER BOND ELECTION
Winners in Recent School Issue
Favor Giving the Voters a
Clearer Issue to Consider
PASADENA, May I.—To show their
Interest in procuring a new polytechnic
high school for Pasadena a number of
residents In the northwest section who
opposed the school bond Issue In the
resent election held a meeting last
night and appointed L. E. Sherman,
Carl c. Curtis, John Dubbs, C. N. Perry
end A. J. Toolen as a committee to wait
on the board of trade directors at th«
earliest possible date and request them
to call a inaKH meeting of voters to
arrange for calling another school bond
election at once.
It is thought if the proposition comes
from the board of trade as a disin
terested party that the school board
and those who did not agree with their
plans, which wore recently defeated,
1.111 get. together on some plan agree
able to all.
Tentative plans for the mass meting
are to ask the board of education to re
open the question of asking (or a bond
Issue to build a now polytechnic high
school and advertise for competitive
plans for a building to accommodate
3600 students at a cost not exceeding
$350,000 bids to Include specifications
■with a completo list of equipment for
the technlca features with the cost of
the same. '*•■ ■ »•■■•- . .
It is further suggested that the board
advertise for a site within a certain
radius of the center of population, the
cost not to exceed $50,000, and then
Hhow through the press a complete list
of furnishings to equip the building and
their cost: a fulll report of tools needed,
with the cost and make; the cost of
important machinery and power needed
and other details.
It Is thought by the promoters that a
proposition can bo formulated which
•will require practically no campaigning
mid which will be simply a question of
formality at the polls after tho plans
are finally settled on.

GALLANT COP TO SUE
CITY FOR MONTH'S PAY
In and Out Act of Long Beach Of
ficials Invite Action from
the Captain
LONG BEACH, April 30.—Clayton
McCord Is expected to bring suit to se
cure his salary from the city for acting
as police officer during the latter half
of April. McCord was captain of po- <
lice, and two weeks ago the council
abolished the office, the ordinance at
the same time specifying that McCord
should continue to serve as a patrol
man.
. The civil service commission, holding
that McCord had no right to be a pa
trolman without going through a civil
service examination, reported that de
cision to Auditor I. S. Hatch. Last
night the council passed a resolution
restoring the office of captain and ap
proved McCord's demand fer his April
recompense. !
Today, however, the auditor declined
to honor the warrant, taking the same
position in the matter as the civil ser
vice commission, that when the office
of captain was abolished McCord was
no longer a member of the department.

reached the grounds by means of the
Kedondo avenue car, and automobiles
which were in waiting at the terminus

Numerous automobile parties went
nut from Hotel Virginia also. The
grounds were found to be In surpris
ingly line shape, while the new and cozy
club house was bedecked artistically
with flowers.
LONG BEACH WAVES
LONG BEACH, April 30.—A ha»d-
Eome trophy to the new Sunset Yacht

which his brother was holding, John
Trusdale, aged 18, was injured pain«
fully, the ax cutting a ragged gash In
his left leg, just above the ankle, sever
ing several arteries. Blood spurted out
in a stream and the lad was consider
ably weakened when a physician ar
rived. The arteries were sutured and
the boy will recover.
The wages of ninety-five city em
ployes were garnisheed today by the
county tax collector, who thus secured
the employes' poll tax from City Treas
urer Norton when the April wages were
paid.
LONG BEET AT LONG BEACH
LONG BEACH, April 30.—The name
of this city may be paraphrased to
"Long Beets" if many more such ex
hibits as appeared today are added to
the collection at the chamber of com
merce. There Is nothing particularly
groat about a beet eight inches long,
but when one eight feet long swings
Into view one Is startled. The beet
brought to the exhibit room today by
G. W. Diffenderfer, 654 Elm avenue,
measured just 7 feet 11 inches, includ
ing the top, which in itself was 7 feet
4 inches tall. In . Ircumference the
beet proper measured 24 inches, while
its weight was found to be 21 pounds.

show cause and a temporary restrain
ing order signed by Judge West was

counter affidavits on this point.

BALTIMORE CANNED GOODS
MARKET IS NOT CHANGED
Twenty Thousand Hands Will Be
Employed in Season
BALTIMORE, April 30.—Tho opening
Of the canned goods season about May
1 will not bring with it an Increase in
the prices of canned commodities. It
v. i learned from a reliable source yes
terday that although the cost of liv
ing has Incceased to a great extent
within the past tvvn years, canned
goods will sell at the same prices
which have prevailed in this city for
the past twenty years.
The ofipnlnjy of the season will moan
tin' employment of about nu.ooo hands.
Most oj' these people live In the imme
diate neighborhood of the packing
I located on the waterfront, near
Canton hollow. The majority of these
workers are of foreign extract,on and
the only ability required is that they
be able to use their hands adroitly.
About twenty years af?o naltlmore
was the center of all the canned In
dustries'ln the iTnitfci states. The in
creaae In consumption and the popu
larity of canned goods has manifested
itself in the west to such an extent
that canning houses have sprung up
In that section and are supplying the
demand. Baltimore, which formerly
supplied four-fifth of all canned goods
used, now furnishes only about one
fifth of tho amount.
This decrease of figures doea not
mean that there has been a decline in
the output here, for Baltimore retains
the distinction of being the leading
canned goods center of the world, and
its exports in these products have
! doubled within the past ten years.
It is not generally know that that
delectable edible, spinach, has been
| canned extensively for the past five
years. The preparing and cleaning of
this vegetable by the latest improved
machinery removes every particle of
grit and has caused an enormous de
mand for this canned product from all
parts of the country.
The season will begin with the ad
vent of the luscious strawberry and
will be followed in turn by peas, string
beans, raspberries and pineapples, and
will conclude with tomatoes. Four
flfths of all canned tomatoes consumed
in the United States and Europe are
packed in Maryland and Delaware. Up
to within fifteen years ago green peas
were packed entirely in this city, but
today it is a small product, for the
western cities have given their entire
attention to this particular branch of
the canning- industry.
Speaking in this connection, John S.
Gihbs, senior member of the Gibbs
Packing company, said: "Peas are
handled only in small quantities in this
city, as for some unaccountable reason
the west Js making a specialty of this
product. Baltimore may well feel
proud of the position it occupies in
the canning Industry. Its position as
the leading city for canned goods has
remained unchanged and there is no
fear that it will ever lose the firm
hold It has in this line."

TEN-YEAR-OLD BOY FIRST
TO PRACTICE OSTEOPATHY
Shut Off the Occipital Nerve and
Cured His Headache
NEW YORK. April 30.—There is living to
day in a little mud-smothered town In the
middle west R man 81 yearn old who thought
a thnupht, says Orace MaeGowan Cooke In the
Delineator. Andrew Taylor Sill. th« founder
of osteopathy, was born In Virginia, tut In
his early childhood was taken by way of Ten
nesaea to Missouri.
Here he grew up amid the primitive Biir
roumllnpr.s of a western pioneer. Children,
more often than Is supposed, think thoughts
of their own; but this boy held to the habit.
He began at 10 years old to flnd out things
In his own way. Swinging, once, till he gave
himself a sick headache, he lay down on the
ground under the swing, put his head across
thn rope, which was slightly cushioned with
a bit of blanket, and went to sleep, to awaken
and find his malady cured.
I'nllke most people, who would have set the
recovery down to choice or to the few minutes'
Bleep, the child rccounlzed the source of his
rrllef, and followed that treatment for twenty
years, without guessing that the pressure of
his rope-pillow on the back of his neck had
suspended the action of the great occipital
nerve and given harmony to the flow of the
Arterial blood In the- temporarily congested
head.
