Death of Billy Warner Billy Warner died suddenly at his residence on North Los Angeles street shortly after 11 o'clock on Tuesday evening. Two weeks ago, while wrestling in his barn with Joe Wagner, he fell and broke both bones of the left leg above the ankle. He was carried to his home and was apparently recovering, no unforeseen complications arising. He was conversing with his wife, who was seated at his bedside, shortly before his death. There was no intimation of the approaching end, when the patient gasped for breath, and lapsed into stupor. Dr. Johnston was immediately summoned, and pronounced the case one of heart disease. Efforts to resuscitate the dying man were unavailing, and he breathed his last without regaining consciousness. The funeral will be held this Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock, under the auspices of the Odd Fellows, of which order deceased was a member. Death of Geo. C. Hagar George C.

Hagar, for many years a highly respected resident of Miraflores, died at his home at that place on Wednesday afternoon of last week, at 4:12 o'clock. Death resulted from a complication of internal disorders, deceased having been in ill health for some time. He was confined to his bed for a month and gradually sank, being unable in his weakened condition to throw off disease. Funeral services were held at the family home on Saturday morning. Rev. Hanna of Los Angeles officiated. The remains were taken to Los Angeles and cremated. John Hanna, father of Mrs. Hagar, and Rev. Wren, a brother-in-law, accompanied the remains. Deceased was a native of Boston, and was in his fifty-third year. He came to California in 1877 and settled in Los Angeles. In the following year he located at Orange. For sixteen years past he had been a resident of Miraflores. He leaves a widow and two sons, students at the highschool, to mourn his loss. Deceased was a familiar figure upon our streets, and for years took an active part in public matters in the county. He was a delegate to many democratic conventions and was a leader of the party. In the 1900 campaign he renounced Bryan, in common with many other democrats, and supported McKinley. He was a well-educated gentleman, of agreeable personality and leaves many friends throughout the county to regret his untimely end. For years he had been engaged in a lawsuit over the title to valuable lands at Balboa, and a few days before his death won a signal victory in the superior court of this county.

Interment was held yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the family residence on Emily street. Sisters and brothers are fighting in the superior court over their aged mother, Mrs. Hettie Rule. The daughters have petitioned the court to have their mother declared an incompetent and to have Joseph Fiscus appointed guardian, while the sons are opposing the petition. The mother is 80 years of age and is the owner of fifty acres of land near Buena Park, against which there is a mortgage of $2000. Some time ago she deeded the sons thirty acres on condition that they pay off the mortgage. This part of their agreement, it is alleged, they have never fulfilled, and if the daughters win they will bring suit against their brothers to have the deed which they hold declared void. H. H. Pierce has sold 20 acres at West Anaheim (the place formerly owned by J. H. Enearl) to E. A. Beard of Los Angeles, for $7000. L. A. Evans negotiated the sale. Skinner and Dickenson report the following sales of automobiles the past week: Reo roadster to Harry Hale of Fullerton; Reo roadster to E. W. Palmer of Oil Wells; Baby Reo to Mr. Seward of Fullerton, and one to J. L. Brazelton of Oil Wells.

Davis come forward with Musicale One of the most charming events of the season was the musicale given by the Apollo club at Odd Fellows's hall on Friday afternoon to celebrate the third anniversary of this popular musical organization. The first meeting of the club was held three years ago on the first Friday after Easter at the home of Misses Sophie and Marie Rimpau, who were the promoters of the club. As a musical organization it seeks to elevate the taste and inspire a love of the classical in the members. And the monthly meetings are a revelation to the outsider fortunate enough to be present. The hall was decorated in pepper boughs and roses while a number of ferns and other potted plants adorned the stage and corridor. The following program was rendered: Sonata (Opus 53) ...

It is between the size of a large mouse and a rat, has a maltese coat spotted with white, and a head like a gopher. Its tail is about six inches long, with a flattened or fanlike tip. In the vineyard of the Ben Lomond Wine Company they are appearing by the hundreds, and are feeding on the young buds of the grape vines, and if some effective means of killing them is not hit upon, they will destroy the entire crop. "Rough on Rats" and strychnine have been used in great quantities, and with considerable success. The cause of their appearance in such numbers is attributed to the recent wholesale slaughter of rattlesnakes in that neighborhood. It was on Ben Lomond Mountain early this winter that nearly 150 rattlers were killed. Dr. Wm. Freeman of Fullerton has disposed of his property in that city and may decide to remove from Orange county, where he has lived many years. Dr. Freeman has many friends throughout the county who will indulge the hope that he will continue his residence here. He is too good a citizen to lose.
