arist of a Little Mil.

The little ten stamp mill built on the
Mojave BY some Of our Los Angeles
mining operators, was last year dis
posed of to Col. II. II. Markham, whose
office is in Temple Block, and TO Chas.
NJ. Sangerd, an associates, of Milwaukee,
Wis. This syndicate purchased half oil
the King mine, at Calico, about forty
miles from their mill, and the teams oil
Mr.. r. Nadeau commenced hauling ore
to the mill about five months ago. The
mill commenced crushing ore on the first
of March last and up to July 26th had
turned out 100 bars of silver bullion,
worth about 5000, 900. That is certainly
very good little grist-mill to grind out
so fair a grist in $50 days. The San
Bernardino Times of Saturday mentions
the last shipment from the mill as fol
lows;
Fourteen bars of fine bullion weighing
|, 1856 pounds, and worth S25, OPS 40,
were received at the express office from
the Orc Grande mill this morning Tnis
is the result of eleven days ruu ON KING
ore, aud makes an even 100 bars So far
turned out. The one hundredth bal
was carefully packed up and will be
sent BY Col. Mark ham to Milwaukee,
where the majority of the company re-
side.

The Pe.Jury Cases.

In U. S. Commissioner Lees Court,
yesterday, decision was rendered in the
case of Messrs. Northam and Lamb.
There were three charges against Mr..
Northam of perjury; two Of which We're
dismissed by the Court, while on the
thrd he was held in bonds of 81, 900 to
answer before Judge Hoffman, at Saif
Francisco. The third charge was that
preferred by Mr.. Chilson. In the case
of Lamb, against whom were two
charges, one was dismissed, while on
the other, preferred by Thompson, he
was held in the same manner as Mr..
Northam. The cases will next come up
on demurrer on the ground that the
warrants for the arrest were issued on
affidavits made before Notary Public
who had no authority to take deposit
tons for the foundation of a suit for
perjury. This point is one of novel in
terest and has probably never been
raised in court in Los Angeles. Much
interest is attached to the argument on
this demurrer.

J. N. RUSSELL, Esq, Los ANGELES. Cal.
Dear Sir. have been here several
days, acting as member Of the Financ,
Committee, engaged in examining the
books and accounts of the Mutual Self
Endowment and Benevolent Association
of America, which was chartered under
the laws of this State July llth, 1851.
am glad to be able to state, for the
benefit OF those interested. and particu-
larly the members of the Association in
my own State, California, that / find
this Association in a fourishing condi-
ton, with present membership OF
5, 300. The books are kept in correct
and systematic order, yet easily to be
understood by any one disposed to look
into them, and are always open for
inspection by members of the Assoc;a-
| ton.
The only chance for large accumu-
lation of money in the hands of the Sec
rotary or Treasurer would be in the
endowment fand, but as all the money
of this fund is loaned to the coupon
holders rs fast as it accnmulates, thus
making the members their own treas
urers-they are secured from the chances
Of a fraud being perpetrated by the
officers.
| also wish to state that the reports
(circulated by agents Of old line life
insurance companies) that this is the
same association moved from Denton,
Texas, and published as fraud in the
p. O. Gaide, December 10, 1882, is
entirely false, and refer any one inter-
estei to the sworn-to report OF the
Finance Committee. Respectfully,
II. n. URMy,
Member of Finance Committee from
Los Angeles, California.

In City Justice Morgan's Court yes
terday, Jerry Mccormick plead guilty
to the charge Of battery, preferred by
his wife, and was fined Sc, with the
usual alternative. Charles Apping and r..
X. Norton, plain DRINKS, were each fined
81 or seven days. James Walker.
charged with vagraney, was sent up
for sixty days. VIM. johnson, charged
with the same offence, plead not guilty
and his case was set for trial August 9,
at 10 A. NJ. John Sennott, disturbing
the peace, was fined s. or five days.
Patrick Martin, convicted OF stealing
harness. was assessed 500 or ninety days
labor on the streets.
District Attorney White yesterday
filed two informations before Judge
Hines, presiding in Judge Sepulveda's
department of the Superior Court,
charging James A, Littlefeld with
grand larceny. The accused was ar
raigned, plead guilty, and, time being
waved, was sentenced to State Prison
for SIX years. Lttlefeld, it will be
remembered by readers Of the HERALD,
IS the fellow who stole horse at
Artesia and sold it to Mr. Tracy, of
Newhall, and re-stole it from him the
same night, and made off with his
booty. He was subsequently captured
at Bakersfield.
There is now no street leading through
the city from north to south, aud yet
our business streets generally run in
that direction. Main street should be
widened to the city line on the south,
and direct connecting road opened into
the country. Bath street is ordered
widened, but when it will be done no
body knows, and then Chavez street
should be Strengthened and made to con-
meet and become an extension of Man
street to the East Los Angeles bridge.
Then we would have q road through the
city that would b. out of the way Of the
locomotives, except at two crossings.
Now that street is bottled up at bolh
ends, and affords no direct outlet either
nor,h or south. When will this i'm.
provement be made? The people are
anxious to know. The best time to d,
this work IS now, before land becomes
any more valuable along the line Of this
great central highway.

A Man Goes Over the Falls

And disappears beneath the foaming bill
lows. This afternoon about hali-past
o'clock, fine-looking, well-dressed gem
tieman was seen walking across the sus-
pension bridge with a cigar in his mouth,
smoking quite leisurely. There was
nothing strange in his manner and the
people on the bridge thought OF nothing
wrong until they saw him leap from
the bridge, over the railing, into the
mighty waters beneath. The people on
the bridge were awe-struck and power
less to render him any assistance, and
with feelings of deep sorrow and tears
in their eyes, they stood silently watch
ing him as he struggled with the
rushing waters, and as he was carried
into the roaring cataract, they noticed
that he was still putting away at one of
those famous "fansill's Punch" Cigars,
Havanah filed, which he purchased at
the Postotfice Cigar Store, for only five
cents. iuly3l-tf.
