who Ate she Cactus.
In the HERALD Of Sunday appeared
an item Of man in the San Fernando
valley who was suffering ogonies from
having eaten the fruit Of the cactus.
Elsewhere in this issue may be found an
account Of the futile efforts OF the Sher-
in office 10 discover him and bring him
to the city cn Saturday night.
Last night at dark the two men who
first reported the case returned to the
Sheriff S Office and reported that the
poor unfortunate was still there and in
very sad plight. II he lives through
it, it will be all but miracle.
A HERALD reporter, who was at the
Sheriff office, heard the whole sad story.
From this it appears that the man is
German, and had been employed for
some time on ranch In the San Fer
nando valley. Several days ago work
gave out on the ranch and the man was
discharged. He set off to look up an
other job and tramped about for some
time. Meanwhile bis money gave out
aud still he failed to find work. He
had gone couple OF days without food,
when he happened upon the cactus
hedge. He made fire OF one thing or
another and proceeded in an old can to
stew the tunas, or cactus fruit. He ate
good deal Of this DEVILS diet, and
soon after began to suffer tortures un-
speakable. When these two
men discovered him as they roamed
about shooting ON Saturday, he was by
an old water tank in the valley below
the Encino. They gave him all they
had to eat and promised to send him re-
lief.
Sunday morning these two men again
set of shooting, and by chance passed
the same place, which the officers had
failed to find. They left him little
food again and returned to the city to
try and get some one to go out and get
this poor sufferer. Deputy Sheriff
Aguirre obtained minute description Of
the place; and, as he knows the valley
well, no doubta successful effort will
now be made to bring the man to the
city.
He is reported as lying almost help
less by the tank in the sun during the
day and taking refuge from the cold OF !
the night underneath its scanty shelter.
His whole body is swollen and almost
rigid. The tunas have made his bowels
terribly costiye. He can hardly speak
or move. 1t will be most humane act
to get him to the city and under medi
cal care, il he survives the night.

The Company Rescue the City

The readers of the HERALD will re-
member the volcanic burst Of grief, sor-
row and shame that arose from the City
Council chamber last week at the sight
OF nude picture in the room. placed
there by city officials because there was
no room for it in the Confidence Engine
Company hall, where it formerly hung
as the property Of that organization.
They remember that the picture was re-
moved from the Council chamber, where
the Councilmen only could see and weep
over it. and placed in a public window,
where the whole city could see the same
and compare the scant raiment in the
picture with that Of Powers Immortal
Greek Slave.
The Confidence Company appear to
have had their charity and benevolence
quickened by this action of the Council.
and last night made demonstration of
these virtues by bearing in reverent pro-
cession silken robe, which with averted
faces they gently placed over the nude
Naiad that has stood for many years
over the fountain that was placed in the
street by the permission and act of the
City Council. The act was witnessed
by many benevolent citizens and as
warmly applauded as the Naiad was
warmly clothed The reason for the
act is set forth in placard placed near
the silken robes of the natty Naiad, and
reads as follows:
