FULLER GETS A HEAVY FINE Judge Trask Imposes Penalty of $350 Upon the Riverside Water Appropriator. C. H. Fuller, the Riversider who holds the law of the land in contempt, had a short-arm jolt administered to him by Judge Trask, of the Los Angeles superior court, sitting in Judge Noyes' court at Riverside a few days ago. Plaintiffs in the case were the Anaheim Union Water Company and the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company, represented by E. E. Keech of Santa Ana and Judge Pope of Los Angeles. Fuller was charged with having violated the injunction of the court by running water on the inhibited lands on the 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th, 15th, 16th and 25th of last May. Defendant moved to strike out the statements in the charges relative to (1) the eleven previous convictions of the defendant for contempt, (2) the decision of the Supreme Court in response to his application for a writ of certiorari, that the judgment was in force pending appeal, and (3) the great interest of the defendant in the running of water upon his land; but the court decided that these matters might be properly taken into consideration in determining the good faith of the defendant and in fixing the penalty. Fuller pleaded not guilty to each of the charges. Plaintiffs called as a witness on their behalf, W. J. Archer, a former foreman of the tile works at Corona, but who now owns a ranch and resides next to the Fuller lands, and who has been employed by the water companies on which the parties to the judgment might agree. He admitted that he had neither objected nor consented to the terms offered on behalf of the plaintiffs and that he had not reported upon the conference that he had with Mr. Kellogg. Neither did he claim that the water used by Mr. Fuller was surplus water under the terms offered by the plaintiffs. He also, at considerable length, testified in regard to a conversation and correspondence that he had with Mr. Keech, subsequently to the violations of the injunctions by Mr. Fuller, in attempts to show his good faith and avoid contempt proceedings by returning from the Fuller pumping plant such water as has been taken by them for the irrigation of the forbidden lands. An interesting feature of Mr. Freeman's evidence, brought out under cross-examination, was that he was not only the attorney for the defendants, but was also interested in the property involved in the suit. This fact may explain to some many things which have occurred during his management of the case. C. H. Fuller took the stand and testified in his own behalf. He stated that he had been assured by Mr. Freeman that he was free to irrigate his land whenever there was water flowing by the headgate of the plaintiffs. That he knew only of the Anaheim headgate and supposed that the water that was running down the river to the Santa Ana intake was surplus water, and that he had acted in accordance with that belief, that he had turned off the water as soon as he was informed by Mr. Keech that each of the plaintiffs had a headgate, that the gate he had seen from the railroad was the Anaheim headgate and that the Santa Ana headgate was below. He had also offered to board at the ranch an agent selected by the plaintiffs to watch the irrigation operations, and see that the injunction was not violated by the defendants. He NATIONAL GUARD AND REGISTRY Coming Encampment To Be Notable Ever Held in the Large Attendance Desired The encampment of the Guard and regulars, beginning 13th and continuing for two already exciting interest in circles. The location of the encampment has not as yet been selected it, in all probability, will be on numerous up-country coast resorts. It will be the first time in this of the state that the Nationals will go out to camp jointly with regulars, and much instruction,cipline and tactical instruction looked for as a result of the Governor Pardee and others visited that as large a representa guardsmen be present as possible chambers of commerce in various have made appeals to the end large attendance of companies sent.

Los Angeles and Cypress W. C. WARNER telephone Main 83 CENTER ST. W. C. WARNER telephone Main 83 CENTER ST. Court thought that a prima facie case had been made, and denied the motion. Defendant called to the stand Mr. Cochran, his foreman, who admitted the irrigation on the 11th, 12th and 25th, in the day time which he said was done according to the direction of Mr. Fuller, but denied that there could have been any irrigation during the nights of the 13th, 14th and 15th, because he knew from his timebook—tion for a writ of certiorari, that the judgment was in force pending appeal, and (3) the great interest of the defendant in the running of water upon his land; but the court decided that these matters might be properly taken into consideration in determining the good faith of the defendant and in fixing the penalty. Fuller pleaded not guilty to each of the charges. Plaintiffs called as a witness on their behalf, W. J. Archer, a former foreman of the tile works at Corona, but who now owns a ranch and resides next to the Fuller lands, and who has been employed by the water companies to keep track of the irrigation done at the Fuller ranch. The witness testified to having visited this ranch regularly at different times of the day and night, and to having found water running on the inhibited lands, irrigating the alfalfa on the 11th of May, and again on the 12th in charge of an irrigator; that no water was running on those lands in the day time on the 13th, 14th and 15th of that month, but that it was running on another part of the forbidden alfalfa field, from 8 o'clock in the evening until four in the morning, during the nights of the 13th, 14th and 15th; that it was also running upon another part of the alfalfa field on the 16th, in the day time; that there was no further irrigation of the forbidden lands until the 25th of May, when about three hundred inches of water were turned upon the field, from which the crop had been shortly before cut and removed. This irrigation continued during the day, but was stopped by Fuller at night time, because he had met Mr. Keech at Corona and had been by him informed that if he continued such irrigation he would have to answer to the court for the violation of its injunction. Plaintiffs here offered to close their case but being met with the objection that they were bound to prove that there was no surplus or storm water running in the river at the time of the use of the water by Fuller, they placed Keech upon the stand. He testified that on the 9th and 10th of May he had crossed the river at Rincon and there observed that the stream was flowing as ordinarily. The defendant's attorneys still insisted upon their objection, and moved to dismiss the case on the ground of failure of proof, urging that the condition of the river at Rincon, casually observed, was no evidence of its condition seven miles above at the Fuller intake; that storms in the mountains caused floods in the river, and that there might have been large quantities of water coming down the river to the Fuller intake, which would not have been apparent at Rincon. Court thought that a prima facie case had been made, and denied the motion. Defendant called to the stand Mr. Cochran, his foreman, who admitted the irrigation on the 11th, 12th and 25th, in the day time which he said was done according to the direction of Mr. Fuller, but denied that there could have been any irrigation during the nights of the 13th, 14th and 15th, because he knew from his timehook—known only of the Anaheim headgate and supposed that the water that was running down the river to the Santa Ana intake was surplus water, and that he had acted in accordance with that belief, that he had turned off the water as soon as he was informed by Mr. Keech that each of the plaintiffs had a headgate, that the gate he had seen from the railroad was the Anaheim headgate and that the Santa Ana headgate was below. He had also offered to board at the ranch an agent selected by the plaintiffs to watch the irrigation operations, and see that the injunction was not violated by the defendants. He had also offered to return from the pumping plant, such water as he had wrongfully taken from the river. The defendant then rested, and the plaintiffs, in rebuttal, showed by the testimony of employees of the Gage canal, the Riverside Water Company and the Riverside Power Company that the storm of April 18th brought almost no water down from the mountains, and what it did bring down continued to run in the river for about twenty-four hours only; that the rise of the river at the Fuller intake was due to a local storm, did not continue for more than a week or ten days and had entirely subsided at the time of the diversion complained of by the plaintiff. They also showed by the testimony of Mr. Archer and L. W. Kirby, an old settler and resident in the neighborhood of the Fuller ranch, who saw the operations of the irrigators in the alfalfa field each day, that the alfalfa cutting began on or about April 18th; ten days later than the time testified to by Mr. Cochran. Plaintiffs rested, and the case was argued by counsel for the plaintiffs and the defendant, after which Judge Trask rendered his decision. In substance it was that terms of the judgment ought not to be varied by oral negotiations or agreements; such negotiations should be considered as entirely inoperative, until finally merged in a binding written contract; that the defendant had no right to rely upon verbal permission; that he was in control of the ranch, and if he did not know what was being done there, he ought to have known; that the court was satisfied beyond a reasonable doubt; that water had been runonthe inhibited land upon each ofthe seven days charged inthe contempt proceeding.

Defendant called to the stand Mr. Cochran, his foreman, who admitted the irrigation on the 11th, 12th and 25th, in the day time which he said was done according to the direction of Mr. Fuller, but denied that there could have been any irrigation during the nights of the 13th, 14th and 15th, because he knew from his timebook—which was not present in court—that he had begun to cut the alfalfa on the 8th or 9th on the part of the field claimed by the plaintiffs to have been irrigated, which it would have been impossible to cut had water run upon it at the time testified to by Mr. Archer. Mr. Cochran also testified that there was a heavy rain on the 18th of April, which raised the river two or three feet, and that it did not begin to subside for about ten days, and then very slowly, and that it had not yet regained its normal volume. This testimony as to the storm water was corroborated by another employee of the defendant who had worked upon the diverting dam. Mr. Freeman, the attorney for the defendants throughout the long litigation was then sworn and testified to having obtained permission from Mr. Keech, attorney for the plaintiffs, to use water from the river whenever the plaintiffs' ditches were full and that the water was running by their head-gates. He admitted, however, that this permission was coupled with the condition that the defendants first obtain the admission, directly from the offices of the two companies, that their ditches were full and that the water was running by their head-gates. This admission the witness did not claim to have obtained either from the officers of the companies, or from their attorneys. Mr. Freeman also testified to having sought to secure through Mr. Keech, Mr. Armor and Mr. Kellogg, a statement of what plaintiffs were willing to agree was surplus water, and to having made a trip up the river with Mr. Kellogg for the purpose of devising a method of determining this point up-hundred and fifty dollars in all; and this the court considered a small penalty. Asks Heavy Damages. Alfred Stern, administrator of the estate of the late Charles Stern of Los Angeles has begun suit against the San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake Railroad Company and the Pacific Electric Railway Company, to recover $75,000 as damages. December 30 of last year the deceased wine maker was a passenger on the electric car that was run into by an engine and freight cars at the Macy street bridge, when several passengers were severely injured. Stern died from the effects of his injuries, and left a widow and seven children. It is alleged that for many years he had been making a profit in his business of not less than $18,000 a year, and that of this amount at least $10,000 was in excess of his expenses and had he lived would have been added to his estate and accumulated. On this basis the heavy claim for damages is made. Elopers Wed. Santitos Carrisosa and Margaret Blecker were joined in lawful wedlock by Justice Howard at the residence of the groom's parents on Thursday. The two returned from Fresno on the morning train and were met by numerous friends and relatives, who joyfully welcomed them home. Consent of the young man's parents to an immediate marriage was obtained, as well as that of the girl's father, but Mrs. Blecker at first insisted upon the arrest of young Carrisosa. She was finally prevailed upon to affix her signature to the papers consenting to the marriage. The young couple are temporarily staying with the Carrisosa family. Santos Carrisos, father of the young Lochinvar, will make the young people a gift of a lot upon which a house will be erected, and Santilos and Margaret will go to housekeeping. Hartsook Will spend the next two weeks in Fullerton. He will return in three weeks. In the meantime his car will be in Anaheim certain days during each week, dates to be announced later. Wireless Telegraphy. Chief Moore of the United States weather bureau has been directed to take mediate steps to add wireless tephrahy to the present equipment of vessel reporting stations, so that indication to reporting all vessels pass within range of the stations the farther out at sea may be reported. Tests made by the weather bureau show that with only such a transmit NATIONAL GUARD AND REGULARS Coming Encampment To Be the Most Notable Ever Held in the State. Large Attendance Desired The encampment of the National Guard and regulars, beginning August 5th and continuing for two weeks, is ready exciting interest in military circles. The location of the encampment has not yet been selected, but in all probability, will be one of the numerous up-country coast resorts. It will be the first time in the history of the state that the National Guard will go out to camp jointly with the regulars, and much instruction in discipline and tactical instruction is to beoked for as a result of the meeting. Governor Pardee and others have advised that as large a representation of guardmen be present as possible, and members of commerce in various cities have made appeals to the end that a large attendance of companies be present. Captain Stern, commanding Company E of this city, has forwarded the following letter to employers of members of his company, to the end that no member may be debarred from attend- AR SIR: The Seventh regiment, N. G.C., of which Company E is a part, has received orders to participate in the annual encampment, beginning August 8th, jointly with the regular army. As this is the first encampment of its kind, and will be of great service to the national Guard, it has been earnestly power as vessels can conveniently carry it was possible to keep them in communication in a range of 200 miles off shore. This extension of the system effects both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts and the Gulf of Mexico. The service is to be performed at San Diego, Farallone islands, off the Golden Gate, North Head, at the mouth of the Columbia river, Tatoosh island at the entrance of the straits of Fuca and Port Angles, Wash., about sixty miles from that entrance. It is intended by the government that vessels of commerce will soon find it to their advantage to be equipped with wireless apparatus so as to communicate freely with the coast stations on their voyage. Fraternal Brotherhood. Anaheim lodge of Fraternal Brotherhood has elected the following officers: Mrs. Eva H. Boyd, President; M. W. Skinner, Vice-President; Miss Elsie Clabaugh, Secretary; Miss Alice Hatfield, Chaplain; Mrs. Jennie Eaton, Sergeant; R. L. Goble, Master-at-Arms; Frank Borth, Inside Doorkeeper; H. L.

A Madman's Delusion. Dear Pigou tells the following story of a brilliant man who lost his mind temporarily through overwork and was confined in an English asylum: "His delusion was that his stomach was full to repletion of rats. There was no room for anything else. Hood said to me, 'Go and talk with him and lead up to the subject of rats.' I found him, as is very common, perfectly sane on every subject but this. After some conversation I said to him, feigning not to know who he was: 'You seem to be a very well informed man. Have you Congressional Committee. The following circular letter has been sent to members of the congressional committee of this district calling them together for the purpose of fixing a time and place for holding the congressional convention: RIVERSIDE, CAL., June 17, 1904.

As this is the first encampment of its kind, and will be of great service to the national Guard, it has been earnestly raised by Governor Pardee, the Adjutant General and various chambers of commerce throughout the state, that large an attendance as possible of members of companies be present at encampment and receive the military instruction there afforded. In this connection I desire respectfully to impress upon you the desirability of having a full attendance of members of Company E, and suggest that every facility be afforded them to secure the necessary leave of absence before. Trusting that no obstacle will be used in the way of their attendance, that Company E may thus be afforded an opportunity for contributing to success of the encampment, I am, Very respectfully yours, HERMAN STERN, Captain Seventh Inf.

M. Appel, the youth who is alleged have burglarized the home of P. W.utz of El Toro, was arranged before Justice Smithwick at Santa Ana and examination, held to answer to superior Court on a charge of burglary.

First Electric Car The first electric car over the new from Long Beach to Huntington made the trip this week, and normal cars the past few days have going over the route. A regular car will not be installed for several months. A Madman's Delusion. Dear Pigon tells the following story of a brilliant man who lost his mind temporarily through overwork and was confined in an English asylum: "His delusion was that his stomach was full to repletion of rats. There was no room for anything else. Hood said to me, 'Go and talk with him and lead up to the subject of rats.' I found him, as is very common, perfectly sane on every subject but this. After some conversation I said to him, feigning not to know who he was: 'You seem to be a very well informed man. Have you given your attention to natural history, because I notice that the question is being discussed as to whether the species of the genus rat called the Norwegian still exists?' Instantly he replied, 'Oh, certainly,' and unbuttoning his dress, said, 'Every known species of rat, sir, is here in my stomach,' and localizing the rat with his finger, said: 'Here in this part of my stomach is a Norwegian rat. You can assure your friends that as long as I am alive no species can die.' Under the kind and humane treatment of Bethlehem he was soon at work again and had, of course, no recollection of his delusion." On a Large Scale. "Yes, sir," resumed the Dakota farmer as the crowd of agriculturists seated themselves round a little table—yes, sir. We do things on rather a sizable scale. I've seen a man on one of our big farms start out in the spring and plow a straight furrow until autumn. Then he turned round and harvested back. We have some big farms up there, gentlemen. A friend of mine owned one which he had to give a mortgage on, and I pledge you my word the mortgage was due at one end before they could get it recorded at the other. You see, it was laid out in counties. And the worst of it is it breaks up families so. Two years ago I saw a whole family prostrated with grief—women yelling, children howling and dogs barking. One of my men had his camp truck packed on seven four-mule teams, and he was going round bidding everybody goodbye." "Where was he going?" "He was going half way across the farm to feed the pigs," replied the Dakota man. "Did he ever get back to his family?" "It isn't time for him yet. Up there we send young married couples out to milk the cows, and their children bring home the milk."—Exchange. Manature. "Mike," said Plodding Pete, "what would you do if you was to wake up an' find yourself a railway president?" "I dunno," answered Meandering Mike. "Human nature is human nature. I s'pose I'd get mercenary an' begin to worry about all de rides I've been beatin' de company out of."—Washington Star. A Little Too Smart. "Oh, we've got an easy thing this time!" said the confidence man who had been prospecting for a victim. "Sure?" "Oh, positive! Why, I've sounded up a fellow who thinks he's too smart to be 'done' by any one."—Chicago Post. Wiff Ask Extra Allowance. Sprinkler Fosseck has his eye on the city treasury. At last weeks' meeting of the council he presented a courteous demand for extra allowance per diem because he had been required to put in two additional hours each day in order to cover the territory desired to be sprinkled. Fosseck arises every morning at 2:30, feeds his horses, and after partaking of a frugal breakfast is out on the streets sprinkling by 5:00 o'clock. He rarely gets home before 7:00 o'clock. After considering his case, the council voted to allow him extra compensation of 50 cents per day. Fosseck announces he will submit a demand at the next meeting of the council for extra allowance, covering a period of some three months past, at the rate of 50 cents per day. It transpired at the next meeting of the council that owing to the small size of the supply pipes, it requires five hours each day to fill the city sprinkler.
