Mrs. Zeus sustained a fracture of the left ankle, her horse backing over the embankment, and her daughter, Miss Olga Zeus, who was in the buggy with her, was painfully bruised and cut about the face and arms by the fall. Mrs. Strodthoff, who was riding with Mrs. Melrose, was at first thought to have been fatally hurt by the overturning of the buggy which precipitated both ladies to the ground. Miss Jessie Melrose was thrown out of the third buggy and fell between two kicking horses. Although stunned by the fall she had presence of mind to extricate herself from her dangerous position by crawling from under the horses. She was riding with Fred Backs at the time. He was also thrown out and painfully bruised. In the party, beside those mentioned, were Misses Adella Strodthoff and Winifred Melrose; Fritz Yungbluth, and Hugo Strodthoff. The party set out at noon for a point in the river canyon some two miles beyond Mr. Kirby's to gather holly. Miss Strodthoff was to have given a party this week and the decorations were to be red hearts and holly. At the point of the accident Mrs. Melrose, who was driving the third buggy in their numerical order, turned to permit a convoy WOMEN'S JACKETS AND COATS Jackets and coats at greatly reduced prices.

FUHRBERG, Proprietor Angeles Beer on Tap HEIM California Telephone Main 58 Miss Zeus and her mother were driving in the fourth buggy. Seeing the runaway the former reined in her horse, which, being tender bitted, backed off the embankment, throwing the ladies out and injuring them as stated. John Lemke had just driven by on his way home and turned into his place. He immediately returned and rendered all assistance in his power. Mr. and Mrs. C.-M. Burbank and the Bush family, who live near the scene of the accident, also rendered assistance. Mr. Lemke drove in with Miss Zeus, bringing in the news. Mrs. Zeus and Mrs. Strodthoff were placed in conveyances and brought home. The others also returned after remaining at the houses nearby for half an hour. Dr. Johnstone and Bickford were called and attended to the injured. Mrs. Strodthoff sustained no broken bones, although badly bruised and shaken up. The injuries of the others, while painful, are not alarming. PREFERRED DEATH TO THE WIDOW Harry Lewthwaite, a broker and prominent business man of Vancouver, committed suicide in Seattle under peeling circumstances. He was married under the horses. She was riding with Fred Backs at the time. He was also thrown out and painfully bruised. In the party, beside those mentioned, were Misses Adella Strodthoff and Winifred Melrose; Fritz Yungbluth, and Hugo Strodthoff. The party set out at noon for a point in the river canyon some two miles beyond Mr. Kirby's to gather holly. Miss Strodthoff was to have given a party this week and the decorations were to be red hearts and holly. At the point of the accident Mrs. Melrose, who was driving the third buggy in their numerical order, turned her horse aside to permit a conveyance in which were several Mexican children to pass. The front wheel ran up the embankment a foot or more, and Mrs. Strodthoff lost her balance and was thrown to the ground. The horse became unmanageable, overturning the buggy and throwing Mrs. Melrose out. The horse ran for a distance of fifty yards with the overturned buggy dragging behind him, when he freed himself and ran with the shafts attached to him directly toward the buggies ahead. In the nearest one Miss Winifred Melrose was riding with Hugo Strodthoff. Hearing the commotion, the former turned and seeing the runaway called excitedly to those ahead, and reaching for the reins drew the horse aside out of harm's way just as the runaway horse grazed the wheels of their vehicle with his broken shafting. He ran on and dashed into the buggy in which were Miss Jessie Melrose and Fred Backs. The vehicle was overturned and demolished and the occupants thrown out and severely bruised. The horse was so badly cut, one of the hind tendons being severed, that when it was caught subsequently and examined by a veterinary it had to be killed.

Special attention given to Probate Matters. —Center Street, Anaheim— PREFERRED DEATH TO THE WIDOW Harry Lewthwaite, a broker and prominent business man of Vancouver, committed suicide in Seattle under peculiar circumstances. He was married in that town Nov. 21. Before he took his life he was passing under an assumed name. Lewthwaite had been married to Mrs. Webb, a widow who lived at North Bend, a place which he often visited during the course of his business. He objected to the wedding, but the woman’s relatives are said to have insisted upon it. Escape being impossible, Lewthwaite determined to commit suicide before the day of the wedding. He wrote a last farewell to a friend, to be opened after his death, but at that time the suicide failed to occur according to schedule and the letter was returned. No sooner was he married than he left for Seattle, with the result as related.

Challenger’s Close Shamrock III, Sir Thomas Dawson new challenger for the American had a narrow escape from being in a fire which did great damage. Denny’s ship-building yards are barton, Eng. Only strenuous saved the challenger, now vanced in her construction. His coinders were blown on the sides of the shed in which Shamrock III is being built. The fire was caught in the fitters’ shop, and the wick in the direction of the Shamrock shed, which is only thirty years old, for an hour. A special force of men had work to safeguard the chaplain eventually the fitters’ shirts ruined, but the fire was under control. All the materiel parts of Shamrock are safe, although the cause of the yacht will be delayed at some time. The fire was of accidental origin. The damage is estimated at 000, and about 700 workmen employed temporarily by the company.

Now, Krick is not a bad sort of fellow, even if he does wear a Francis Murphy white ribbon and parts his hair in the middle; but, although he used to teach school and can divide by three figures, he makes a mistake once in a while, and the last one is liable to cost him lots of money. It all came about in this way. The secretary man some weeks ago, in conformity with instructions of the water board, published in this journal the assessment notice recently adopted by the board, levying an assessment of $2 per share upon the capital stock of the company. This was according to Hoyle. The notice was printed according to the legal formula, and thus far Krick's official goose hung at a respectable distance from terra firma. But the other day the delinquent notice had to appear, for be it known not all of the stockholders called at the office to settle. Now Krick, being a charitable sort of person, hiked off to the office of an esteemed contemporary and there had the delinquent notice printed. For he reckoned that it was a good thing to distribute the plums of printing around among the faithful and the needy, which is meet and proper; and likewise to guard against the contingency of one editor man amassing too heavy a load of the sheckles of the realm, LOCAL JOTTINGS OF INTEREST Santa Theresa Manuel Crespin, the well-known caballero of Placentia, has made several trips to Los Angeles, along with his twenty-year-old son, for the purpose of consulting with Santa Theresa. The divine healer, who cures, he says, by the massage process and also by administering internal remedies. Mr. Crespin has been afflicted with heart trouble for years. His son has catarrh. At Santa Ana some time ago physicians advised a surgical operation for the son, but the father objected. Both have experienced great benefit at the hands of the healer, and look forward to complete recovery. Drowned in Irigation Ditch August Calles, aged 60 years, was drowned in a ditch while irrigating the Burnham walnut orchard at Orange late on Wednesday afternoon of last week. When last seen, about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Calles was engaged in cleaning brush from the ditch. His failure to return home in the evening aroused the fears of his wife, who started a search for him. No trace of him could be discovered in the darkness, and it was not until Thursday morning when Mrs. Calles in the early light of dawn found the body face down in the waters. Help was summoned and the body taken to Santa Ana where Coroner Clark held an inquest. The jury decided that death was accidental, due to a fainting fit. Where the accident occurred the water is about two feet deep and three feet wide. It is surmised that while bending over to clean out weeds and rubbish Calles lost his balance and fell into the water and was either stunned by the fall or was too weak to struggle out. There were no marks of bruises. Next Convention The delegates to the next Republican state convention are apportioned the same basis as this year—one to 200 votes for the head of the Reagan ticket—Southern California is represented as follows: Angeles 87 Diego 16 Bernardino 16 George 12 Herside 11 Tura 9 La Barbara 11 Total 162 The Eighth District Congressional Convention will have one less delegate this year. We give a comparison based on the same basis as the State Convention: 1902 1904 Diego 19 16 George 11 12 Herside 12 11 Bernardino 16 16 Tura 9 9 La Barbara 10 11 La Barbara 8 9 Care 9 9 Luis Obispo 8 8 Odo 2 2 Potals 104 103 San Diego will lose three delegates to Riverside one; Orange, Santa Barbara and Kerc will gain one each; the presentation of the other counties will be unchanged. It will take 52 days to nominate. Challenger's Close Call Shamrock III, Sir Thomas Lipton's new challenger for the America's cup, and a narrow escape from being burned in a fire which did great damage toanny's ship-building yards at Dumont, Eng. Only strenuous efforts led the challenger, now well advanced in her construction. Red hot焊者 were blown on the roof and sides of the shed in which Shamrock II is being built. The fire was fierce the fitters' shop, and the wind blew spectable distance from terra inna. But the other day the delinquent notice had to appear, for be it known not all of the stockholders called at the office to settle. Now Krick, being a charitable sort of person, hiked off to the office of an esteemed contemporary and there had the delinquent notice printed. For he reckoned that it was a good thing to distribute the plums of printing around among the faithful and the needy, which is meet and proper; and likewise to guard against the contingency of one editor man amassing too heavy a load of the sheckles of the realm, and become thereby sleek and fat and sawoey, in which he is also to be commended. For he wist not the statutes in such cases made and provided read aloud and stipulate that in whithersoever journal the assessment notice be published, there must the delinquent notice also appear. He wist this not, and now well-informed people say that not one of the delinquents need pungle, but that Mr. Krick will be put in the hole. The amount of the delinquency is $350. The directors haven't found it out yet, but when they do, the boys say there'll be music in the air. PEAS, ASPARAGUS AND CURRANTS Cultivated in Colorado on the Greatest Scale in the World To the Eastener, used to his garden bed of peas a few feet square, the idea of growing this product in beds of 2500 acres and of harvesting and threshing peas like so much wheat, is a revelation. The West just now holds in store many such agricultural surprises for those from a distance. In Longmont, Colorado, the land is prepared for peas just as it is for wheat. The regular wheat drills are used in sowing peas. Two rows of peas are sowed and then a space equal to that occupied by two rows is skipped, thus leaving twenty-one inches between the double rows for cultivation and irrigation purposes. When the pea vines become large enough to cultivate, a corn cultivator is used in throwing earth up to them; when five to six inches in height, a furrow is made between the rows for water brought to the head of the rows in the highest part of the field by a broad ditch. At the harvesting of peas all are mowed down by a cutter which runs just beneath the ground. Then the hayracks arrive and great loads of peas on the vines are hauled to the nearby canning factory and are ready for the threshing operation. The threshing is done by means of machines constructed especially for this purpose. When the peas have been shelled by means of these machines, they next are put through grading machines which sort out the different sizes. The filling of the cans is accomplished by means of machinery. Each machine fills twelve cans at one time. At the factory at Longmont 40,000 cans are filled in a day. Longmont boasts, further, of the darkness, and it was not until Thursday morning when Mrs. Cailes in the early light of dawn found the body face down in the waters. Help was summoned and the body taken to Santa Ana where Coroner Clark held an inquest. The jury decided that death was accidental, due to a fainting fit. Where the accident occurred the water is about two feet deep and three feet wide. It is surmised that while bending over to clean out weeds and rubbish Cailes lost his balance and fell into the water and was either stunned by the fall or was too weak to struggle out. There were no marks of bruises on his body. He might have been overcome by sickness and fell into the water and thus lost his life. War Claims W. W.

We do not need to give all the reasons why Scott's Emulsion restores the strength Challenger's Close Call Shamrock III, Sir Thomas Lipton's new challenger for the America's cup, and a narrow escape from being burned in a fire which did great damage to Dumorton, Eng. Only strenuous efforts led the challenger, now well advanced in her construction. Red hot焊ers were blown on the roof and sides of the shed in which Shamrock is being built. The fire was fiercest at the fitters' shop, and the wind blew the direction of the Shamrock's head, which is only thirty yards distant, for an hour. A special force of men had hard work to safeguard the challenger. Eventually the fitters' shop was ruined, but the fire was under control. All the materiel parts of Shamrock III are safe, although the construction of the yacht will be delayed for some time. The fire was of accidental origin. The damage is estimated at $100,-100, and about 700 workmen will lose employment temporarily by the fire.

Coughing Spell Caused Death "Harry Duckwell, aged 25 years, choked to death early yesterday morning at his home, in the presence of his wife and child. He contracted a slight cold a few days ago and paid but little attention to it. Yesterday morning he was seized with a fit of coughing which continued for some time. His wife sent for a physician, but before he could arrive, another coughing spell came on, and Duckwell died from suffocation—St. Louis Globe-Demoorat, Dec. 1, 1901." Ballard's Horehound Syrup would have saved him. 25c, 50c and $1.00 at J. P. Hatzfeld's. Sick Blood Feed pale girls on Scott's Emulsion. We do not need to give all the reasons why Scott's Emulsion restores the strength and flesh and color of good health to those who suffer from sick blood. The fact that it is the best preparation of Cod Liver Oil, rich in nutrition, full of healthy stimulation is a suggestion as to why it does what it does. Scott's Emulsion presents Cod Liver Oil at its best, fullest in strength, least in taste.
