A WORD ABOUT MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP. The stock argument of those opposed to municipal ownership is, If the city is to go into water works and electric lighting, why not open a store and sell groceries to the people under similar conditions? The reply is that we now have, by the system of active competition between our grocers, as well as that existing among our other merchants, an opportunity to procure those commodities at such a slight advance over cost price, that there is no necessity for the people going into the business themselves for the protection of the municipality. If we had two systems of water works, for example each as alert to do business as our average store-keeper, and each of them in active and legitimate competition with the other, we should have no cause for municipal works. But who would be foolhardy enough to go in for two systems of water works—or of gas, or electric lights, either? Certainly the possibility for it is remote in these times of unusual depression. But we go in for municipal ownership in light and water for the purpose of bringing these commodities to the doors of consumers at as near cost as it is possible to furnish them. By municipal ownership we do away, first, with the high salaried officials, and, second, with making payments for the quarterly dividends of the private corporations engaging in them. We put up the works and run them, and furnish light and water as cheaply as the cost of the running of the plant will permit. Our expenses are placed at the very minimum figures; whereas under private ownership they are kept at a maximum figure, and the consumers pay the extra price for their lights and water. Here in Anaheim we furnish are lights at a rate of $7 50 per month, burning until 9 o'clock, while at Santa Ana, as we have repeatedly said, the rates up to the time of the discontinuance of incandescent lighting, the rates were $11, and at San Diego (a much larger town), where the rates should be less, the charge under private ownership is $16 per month. But at Santa Ana the city is charged thousands of dollars quarterly for street lights, while here the charge for commercial lights the point of beginning, the point of upcoming was precisely beneath the treasure box. A powerful jack screw had been brought to bear upon the bottom of the cement at that point, which when broken in sufficiently to admit of the ingress of one of the robbers, opened up into the substructure under the money vaults. That the vaults had what is known as the double bottom is all that prevented the successful consummation of this very daring attempt at robbery. The robbers must have been frightened away, but the somnolent police lost no time in arresting an innocent party, as they have so often done before, and charged him with complicity in the crime. He was promptly acquitted at his examination in court, and now the police force is engaged in floundering about in the endeavor to hit upon others to fit the crime. The accounts of the robbery appearing in the Los Angeles morning papers read as if written from the standpoint of nine parts laudation of an incompetent police force, and one part news. The greatest news sensation of the year was known in this city four days before the Los Angeles papers got hold of it, and a chance to prepare a magnificent account of the robbery was spoiled by putting too much police in it. REALLY, our esteemed contemporaries of the daily press at Santa Ana are ranting quite too much, it seems to us, about our municipal electric lights. There is another, and a very obvious, and to each of them probably a far more important fight, in this contest between them, which has led one of them, at least, to downright falsification regarding our lights. If they will kindly mend their plan of campaign, which is, it seems to us, at once excessively and exceedingly picturesque, and will permit the lights to burn unmolested up to their registered candle power, and will present the cause of municipal ownership to their readers on its merits, we think the absent charm of dignity to the controversy will result; and if the Blade is so absolutely at a loss for material as to make repeated false statements about our lights, and will not correct them when its attention is called to the wickedness of its ways, it seems to us it must be in a very bad state indeed, and that it must have hold of the losing end of the proposition. MRS. MARY LIVINGSTON FLEMING who has been a prisoner in the Tombs, New York's city prison, for nearly ten months, charged with the crime of murdering her mother, was June 24th after a trial of The edifices doomed to be blown up have been selected, and one after another shall fall. The revolutionist party cannot retrace its steps, and if it is necessary to totally destroy the city of Havana for the purpose of expelling Spain, it shall be destroyed. "Therefore our compatriots' families must become fully aware as to the importance of hurriedly abandoning the country, and those who cannot we charge them to be ever on the alert and employ the constant and indefatigable vigilance proper to those who find themselves next to a mine loaded to the utmost." NOT ONE ALIVE. NINETY MINERS ENTOMBED IN A PENNSYLVANIA COAL MINE — WATER POURING INTO THE SHAFT, AND CHANCES OF RECOVERING THE BODIES ARE SMALL. WILKESBARRE (Pa.), June 29. — The excitement at Twint Shaft in Pittston, where nearly one hundred miners are entombed, continues to-day. At the mouth of the shaft, besides the wives and children of the entombed men, there are hundreds of persons, not residents of Pittston alone, but visitors from Scranton and Wilkesbarre. The wives and children stand near the opening to the death chamber, urging the rescuers to greater efforts. Practically nothing has been accomplished toward the recovery of the men. There is scarcely as old miner about the opening of the mine who does not believe the men are all dead. The rescue party which went into the mine at 1 o'clock came out at 7 o'clock. The foreman reports the timbering is going on as rapidly as possible. The work is necessarily slow, owing to the danger of falling rocks loosened by the explosion. If the slope is not completely choked with debris the rescuers may possibly be able to reach the man within five hours otherwise it may be two or three days. The rescue party is 2000 feet from where the cave-in occurred. Gas continues to accumulate, and the roof, which was weakened by the explosion, is in danger of falling at any moment. A survey of the interior of the mine this morning shows the main slope is blocked worse than officials are willing to admit. Fully sixty feet that had been cleared up yesterday afternoon is blocked up by another fall that occurred before 4 o'clock this morning. Fire Boes Johns said: "It is my belief that the air current in Twint Shaft was shut off during the moment the cave-in occurred. Then, if the men were not killed by falling rocks and coal, they may have lived some minutes before being suffocated, or if the space where they were left clear, the gas may have accumulated and exploded, which would, of course, have burned the men to death. It is not likely that it will be known how the men died until the bodies are found." The damage to the mine is estimated at $25,000, and the expense of getting the bodies out may reach $20,000. The company Our expenses are placed very minimum figures; whereas under private ownership they are kept at a maximum figure, and the consumers pay the extra price for their lights and water. Here in Anaheim we furnish a lights at a rate of $7 50 per month, burning until 9 o'clock, while at Santa Ana, as we have repeatedly said, the rates up to the time of the discontinuance of incandescent lighting, the rates were $11, and at San Diego (a much larger town), where the rates should be less, the charge under private ownership is $16 per month. But at Santa Ana the city is charged thousands of dollars quarterly for street lights, while here the charge for commercial lights is placed sufficiently high to pay for the maintenance of the street arcs as well. Our inocandescent rates are 75 cents per month per light, while at Santa Ana they were a dollar for the same time up to the discontinuance of the works. The ideal form of municipal ownership is to obtain revenue from consumers sufficient only to maintain the works, to pay for the running expenses, insurance and depreciation, and to maintain the necessary interest and sinking fund; and to charge non-consumers nothing. This is what we aim to do in Anaheim. To be sure, non-consumers pay in their yearly tax returns a small amount for interest and sinking fund on the bonds; but this is more than made up by the arc lights furnished them on the streets. Under private ownership non-consumers would be taxed more for the maintenance of the street arcs, than they now pay into the interest and sinking funds with their yearly taxes. Municipal ownership is a good thing for the poor man. It gives him a chance to put electric lights into his household, whereas inevitably so night that prohibitory charges would prevail. If he does not care for the lights, municipal ownership costs him nothing, for, as we say, his light taxes are more than offset by the light in the streets, which he shares equally with his wealthy neighbor. We have no need for co-operative grocery stores, or dry goods establishments, but we need municipal ownership for water and light, for otherwise, we could not have them except at a prohibitory schedule. Before the cementing of the Southside ditch Zanjero Littlefield required 400 inches of water at Hartung's corner to deliver 80 inches to irrigators in the southwestern limits of the district; now he starts with 115 to 120 inches and delivers a hundred, the loss by evaporation during the warmest days being in this five mile stretch of ditches, not over twenty inches. It used to take six days to serve the irrigators in this part of the district with water, now they are all served in two days. This equals a saving of four days' water, and the loss being estimated at 320 inches continually, we have thus a saving of no less than 1,280 inches, and what is true of the Southside ditch is equally true of the South branch and Placentia ditches. Where it formerly required six weeks to get around with a run of water, now all irrigators are served in two weeks, and the wants of all are supplied; but the experience of a certain Director, whom the Superintendent left with two dry rows of trees on his hands after irrilating them with the rains. MRS. MARY LIVINGSTON FLEMING who has been a prisoner in the Tombe, New York's city prison, for nearly ten months, charged with the crime of murdering her mother, was discharged on June 24th after a trial of seven weeks. During her imprisonment she gave birth to a child, a boy, now about five months old. The trial was in some respects one of the most remarkable on record. Mrs. Blias, the mother of Mrs. Fleming, was supposed to have died from the effects of arsenic administered in a bowl of clam chowder which was presented her by her daughter. The mother and daughter seemed to be on friendly terms, and no reason could be assigned for the crime. There was, however, a quantity of circumstantial evidence to sustain the charge. The Sun says that after reviewing the evidence against her question arises, "Why was the woman ever put on trial at all?" And indeed it would seem to be considerable of a farce, for after a year's preparation the prosecution has failed to prove either that the woman was poisoned or that Mrs. Fleming attempted to poison her. The cost of the trial has been to the county over $30,000, and about the same to Mrs. Fleming. A PEEPING TOM. BALDWIN'S MAN AND THERESON HAD AN EYE ON HIS EMPLOYER. SAN FRANCisco, June 30.—Judge Slack is thoroughly tired of the Ashley-Baldwin suit. He gave notice of that fact to all parties to-day. Counsel on both sides were advised to appear in court tomorrow prepared for a night session. The judge said that he did not intend let the court run over into another day if it could be avoided. The proceedings to-day revolved entirely about the witness, A. H. Anderson, who was partly examined on Monday. Anderson is the ex-employee of Baldwin, who marked with watchful eye the growing intimacy between the millionaire and Miss Ashley while they were together at Santa Anita. Anderson kept a notebook in which he recorded the intimacy of Baldwin and Miss Ashley. An entry was made in the memorandum book on April 19, 1893, after Anderson had returned to Santa Anita. He still had an eye on Baldwin and Miss Ashley. One day he saw them enter a cottage together. According to Anderson he was tempted to peep under the blind and through the window. He saw enough to convince him that his employer and the fair Lillian were quite intimate, and, duly impressed by the incident, he made a record of it in his ever-handy book. Anderson's story of these entries caused him no end of trouble when he came to be cross-examined by attorney Highton. The witness was required to produce his book. It then appeared that, in connection with the hotel incident, Anderson had written "Important evidence in the Ashley-Baldwin case." Attention was then called to the fact that at the time Anderson claimed to have made the entry no trouble existed between Baldwin and Miss Ashley and no suit of any kind had been commenced. Pressed for an explanation why he made such an entry, Anderson replied that he had none. The witness later refreshed his memory and he ventured an explanation. It was that he made the original entry in a small pal ownership to their readers on its morte, we think the absent charm of dignity to the controversy will result; and if the Blade is so absolutely at a loss for material as to make repeated false statements about our lights, and will not correct them when its attention is called to the wickedness of its ways, it seems to us must be in a very bad state indeed, and that it must have hold of the losing end of the proposition.

WILKESBARRE (Pa.), June 29.—It is a settled fact tonight that of the small army of men who entered the ill-fated Twin Shaft at Pittston on Saturday not one survives. Not only is every approach to their dark tombar barricaded by enormous masses of rock and debris, but it is known that in the mine there is a large quantity of water which is increasing in volume every minute. Thus, the chances of recovering their bodies are more remote than ever. Prominent officials say that weeks or months may be consumed in clearing away the fallen coal in order to reach the bodies of the victims. OSTEOPATHY BREVITIES. Electric bells are being installed in all the rooms of the sanitary局. (Miss) Annie E. Rusk, a twenty years' practitioner in Indiana, but recently from Los Angeles and Pasadena, arrived at the sanitarium yesterday to undergo osteopathic treatment. F. M. and Mrs. Brown, C. H. and Mrs. Omer, F. S. Northrup and Miss Fannie Omer left yesterday for the neighborhood of Madame Modjeska's ranoh, on a three days' camping excursion. Dr. Schenner has added German as it is spoken in his class in osteopathy, which will aid the student wonderfully in his future practice. W. L. Metcalfe, editor of the Osteopathia, is also an Anaheim correspondent of the Los Angeles Evening Express. Miss Grace Omer leaves for Long Beach Friday; to go until Monday. The articulated skeleton at the sanitarium is the subject of much comment as regards the beauty of its general makeup. The school of osteopathy is progressing most favorably, and the class steadily increases in number. Electric lights will soon illuminate the sanitarium. Two of the osteopathic students, Rev and Mrs. Iler, went to Santa Ana yesterday. Mrs. Doctor Scheuer and Mrs. F. M.Brown have joined the class in osteopathy. Mrs. Josie Pankey, an accomplished pianist, is giving young Miss Flora Scheurer less sons on that instrument. The Osteopath will make its initial bow to the public July 15th in Anaheim. Look out for it. Mrs. Simonson, mine hostess of the sanitarium refectory, entertained a few friends at an afternoon tea on Monday last. Don't forget the G.A.R. excursion to Ventura, July 1st to 10th, 1896. The S.B.Co. will sell round trip tickets for $3 30 round trip tickets for $3 30 round trip tickets for $3 30 round trip tickets for $3 30 round trip tickets for $3 30 round trip tickets for $3 30 round trip tickets for $3 30 round trip tickets for $3 30 round trip tickets for $3 30 round trip tickets for $3 30 round trip tickets for $3 30 round trip tickets for $3 30 round trip tickets for $3 A DARING but unsuccessful attempt was made to rob the First National Bank in Los Angeles some days ago, by means of a tunnel running from the rear of a saloon on Commercial street, diagonally across lots 120 feet to a point underneath the vaults of the bank. It is supposed the robbers worked upon the tunnel for a period of several months, it being their purpose to come up under the vault and blow it open with dynamite. The attempted robbery was discovered a week or ten days ago, but accounts of it appeared in the Los Angeles papers first on Friday last—appearing singularly enough, in two of the morning papers simultaneously. The tunnel started from the rear of a saloon on Commercial street, conducted by F. Conrad of this city. Conrad's barkeeper skipped out some days ago, and when he went up to look into the affairs of the saloon, he found the place filled with detectives, who pledged him to secrecy. This was on Tuesday of last week, yet it was four days thereafter before the Los Angeles papers got hold of this important piece of news. This well-laid attempt to rob one of the wealthiest banks in the city is probably the most audacious attempt at robbery in the annals of the country. The route of the tunnel must have been accurately determined by clever surveyors, for after running for a distance of 120 feet diagonally from Anderson's story of these entries caused him no end of trouble when he came to be cross-examined by attorney Highton. The witness was required to produce his book. It then appeared that, in connection with the hotel incident, Anderson had written "Important evidence in the Ashley-Baldwin case." Attention was then called to the fact that at the time Anderson claimed to have made the entry no trouble existed between Baldwin and Miss Ashley and no suit of any kind had been commenced. Pressed for an explanation why he made such an entry, Anderson replied that he had none. The witness later refreshed his memory and he ventured an explanation. It was that he made the original entry in a small book and afterward transferred it to the large book which he had in court. It was his impression that this transfer was not made until after Miss Ashley had commended her suit. The cross-examination developed that at one time Anderson had a contingent interest in any judgment Miss Ashley might obtain.

New York, June 29. — The Journal's Hawaii correspondent sends the following: "The revolutionists have formally served notice on the people of Havana that plans have been completed and will be carried into execution this summer to wipe out every vestige of the city by means of dynamite, if it be necessary to go to that extreme to drive the Spaniards off the island. Copies of the circular conveying this announcement have been left at the houses of well-to-do people of the city. It is entitled 'Dynamite Circular to Cuban Families,' and reads as follows: "The summer campaign is to be supported in large towns by the revolutionists residing therein, and to this end terrible means must be resorted to—the employment of dynamite. The inhabitants of Havana are fully aware that the announcement of this plan is no vain threat, as the plans agreed upon for the explosion have already begun to materialize." PROGRAM OF THE...
