ALLS FROM BALCONY DREAMING OF MOTHER Prompt Medical Attention Saves Her Life, Physician Being Able to Snap Bones Into Place Once More Hurrying wosward on a train, the mother of little Mary Preston will be shocked to learn that her child is at the county hospital, recovering from a bad fall she sustained Monday afternoon. It was while dreaming of her mother that she fell, and by sheer good luck and quick medical attention alone did she escape with her life.

Little Mary kwoke after a 20-foot fall, sorely Injured, to find herself in the arms of Dr. Adolph Pettcr. Sympathizing friends stood near, fearing that life had left her. She tumbled off the rear balcony of Hotel Afton, at 533 South Spring street, and landed in a heap after grazing a dry goods box in the yard below. The collision with the box dislocated the child's vertebrae at the neck, and but for immediate medical aid she would have lived only a few moments.

Dr. Petter placed his knee against the child, gave her a jerk, and with a snap the delicate bones slipped back into place. The spinal system hit'd been injured, but the doctor said the effects pass away quickly. The child's arm was fractured and she also sustained severe contusions of the head. Her grandmother, in whose care she has been for some weeks, having preceded her mother to the coast, is with the patient constantly at the hospital.

Quests at the hotel Bend flowers and fruits at Intervals. Both grandmother and child watch the door of the ward expectantly, as the mother's presence is expected hourly. She left New York a week ago. As It is not known which route she is traveling over no dispatch has been sent her. It appears that the girl fell asleep while seated on an iron stairway lead- Ing from the balcony.

She had been attracted by the music coming from the phonograph establishment downstairs, and, as she often did, sat there a long time holding her Teddy bear and listening to the melody. Mary told her grandmother when she recovered consciousness that she had had the sweetest dream, in which she saw her mother coming to kiss her. She stretched out her arms, and the next moment all was blank. That was when she struck terra flrma. The doctors say the little girl who so luckily escaped will be out in a week.

They give Dr. Petter credit for saving the girl's life by prompt treatment. The rear of his office and the yard where the girl fell are only a few feet apart. Hence his prompt presence. COMPANIES ARRANGING TO ACCOMMODATE CROWDS To accommodate the unusual traffic expected for the harbor day celebration at San Pedro the Fourth of July the Pacific Electric company will give a ten-minute service and run three cars on each train.

The same service will be glim to Long Beach and other beach towns if the traffic demands It. Extra trains will be run on the Los Anseles-Paclflc to the west beaches and to Santa Monica cannon, which will be opened today for the first time. Jewish Celebration The BarmltJiva, or religious majority, of Julian, son of Mr. and Airs. A.

Fisnh, be celebrated in the B'nal B'rlth hall, 521 West Pico street, before tho Sinai congregation on Saturday, July 4, at 10 a. in. Rabbi Isidore Mj-ers will deliver an address on "The Fourth of July." A reception will be held at the residence of Mr. Fisch, 1349 South Union avenue, on Saturday and Sunday from 2 to 6 p. m.

If your advertising today were of some other store than your own, HOW WOULD IT IMPRESS YOU? Can you see your advertised self as others see you? WOMEN DEMAND POUND REFORMS WORKERS AROUSED IN CAUSE OF ABUSED DOGS CIVIC COMMITTEES STUDYING LEGISLATION System of Licensing and Catching Like Pasadena's Believed to Be Best Solution of the New Problem" Humane are rapidly enlisting in the movement to do away with the obsolete and cruel dog ordinances now governing In Los Angeles for the more enlightened Pasadena method or some modlflaction of that plan. Several women known for civic activity have agreed among themselves that they will organize If necessary to secure the needed legislation and cooperating with lawyers who stand ready to assist, they hope to frame an ordinance for presentation to the Los Angeles council. Its purpose will be to hold owners of dogs responsible If thpy are found at large unlicensed and to put enforcement of the dog pound ordinance In the hands of humane society agents. The present pound keeper admittedly has a "pull" with Borne councllmen, and unless this is overcome obstacles will be encountered. Nevertheless the financial saving proposed to be gained will doubtless carry weight, and It is believed that a majority at least of the council will be won over.

If that Is done It 1b thought that Mayor A. C. Harper will sign such an ordinance. Down in Vernon, which is outside of the Los Angeles boundaries, recently, several dog catchers took away a dog from a hog ranch. Going outside the city Is clearly against the law, but the had an excuse prepared to the effect that they caught the animal Inside the limits.

The woman owner was forced, she says, to pay redemption money for her pet, which, if true, adds another phase to (he peculiar methods in vogue here on dog licenses. There Is no fund here to which moneys for dogs owned outside of the city can be applied when It is redemption money. Mrs. L. C.

Giese is one of those who have been asked by this volunteer committee of women to see what can be done to pass remedial legislation. Mrs. Giese has mastered the law bearing on the subject and is prepared to point out inconsistencies in the present laws as enforced, or rather not enforced. Probably one of the first demands made will be on Chief Edward Kern to sen that the next dog catcher who trespasses on private property shall be prosecuted. The other is that no one who Is a minor, even it he is a.

pound employe, shall be permitted to wear a police star. AT THE HOTELS MANAGER OF BT. FRANCIS PREDICTB RAPID GROWTH James Wood, manager of the Hotel St. Francis of San Francisco, and Mr 3. Wood, who have been staying at the Alexandria for a few days, will leave by steamer today for San Diego.

T. Mr. Statler Is the proprietor of ons of the largo hotels of that city and conducted the big Inside Inn at St. Louis. In speaking of the future business development of San Francisco and Los Angeles Mr.

Wood quits optimistic. He said: "In a very short time nil trace of the Francisco disaster will have been eradicated.
