Death on the 'Srain.

Frank Gallup came down to this city a
mouth or six weeks ago from Santa Cruz
and concluded to make his home here. He
therefore sent for his mother a short time
since, who arrived on Yesterdays train
from the north. He and his widowed
mother have had the care aud rearing of
an orphaned daughter of his brother, aged
years. Shortly before his mother left
Santa Cruz the little girl was taken sick, and
Mrs. Gallup says a physician of that place
treated her for catarrh. During the jour
ney on the cars the Illness developed into
severe case of croup, and about five min
utes before the train reached this city the
little one died in spasm. The remains
were taken charge of by Undertakers Orr Il
Sutch, and will be buried from their par
lors tomorrow morning.

SUICIDE.
James Ferry, weary OF Life
POisOns Himself.

Room Is at the Grand Central Lodging
House on the corner of Commercial and
Los Angeles streets, was yesterday morning
the scene OF the self-destruction OF James
Ferry.
The suicide was an old man, perhaps
sixty-five, and has been in the city only
short time. Though distorted out OF It's
natural semblance by the late eonvulsiYe
struggle, his face was easily recognizable to
the officers as that of an old man they had
seen wandering up and down the streets,
with no apparent object in view-an ever
restless. anxious-looking man, whose frost
ed hair aud beard, coupled with his agi-
tated II amer, made him the object OF mueh
attention and many inquiries. Late Iues.
day afternoon he applied TO the proprietor
of the lodging house mentioned above ior
room in whicn to spend the night.
Iu reply to an invitation TO inspect inc
apartments and select suitable one, he salu
some " hat incoherently:
mo; | do not desire to see them. ANY
room will do. only want place to sleep
to rest-to sleep"
With that he went away; and when he re-
turned, later in the evening, The room was
shown him in which he passed from lie 10
death, and in which his iifclesS corpse was
found, stretched crosswise on the bid, at
o'clock the following day.
Having retired early he was Maturity ex
pee ed to arise at reasonable hour in the
morning. When the rounds OF the cham
bermaid were made at 10 O'Clock the room
still no sign OF life within, aud at
/ the door was tried and found Sc
curely locked A little later an effort was
made to lock into the apartment through
the window ana the discovery was made
thst a curtain had been fastened across II IN
order 70 obstruct the view from the outside.
The transom OF an adjoining room, now
ever, afforded means OF locking into the
room, and the discovery was made that ine
old man was dead.
An officer was called aud the door was
broken open. when it was at once evident
that death had been caused by strychnine
taken with suicidal intent. A goblet stood
upon the dresser and PARTICLES ofthe deadly
drug we're found upon its inner surface.
Under atowel on the bureau top the folloW
ing note was found:
Los ANGELES, October 26. 1856.
This world has been nard one ;or me,
think it best to leave it. | have lived a
temperate aud moral life; IL there is here
after, l implore TO enjoy it,
A number of papers were found in the
pockets of the suicides coat. Among them
were a promisory note for $3.50, made to
Sarah NJ d. Sage, at 81. Paul, Minnesota,
and receipt for two hundred shares ,ol
mining stock, of the Cancel Greek tydraullc
Mining Company, of Pierre, Dakota.
The corouer's jury, summoned to inquire
into the cause of the death ofdeceased, found
that he had come TO his death 'on the 2oth
of October, 1856. by dose OF strychnine
taken by his Own hands with suicidal in
tent"

Anafher Depot Hotel.

1t is reported on good authority that the
S. P. Company will erecta depot and hotel
at Rosamond, to accommodate the large
number of persons that have recently pur-
chased land in the valley. A large number
of gentlemen from the central part of the
State have purchased land recently in the
valley, and there seems to be boom in that
part of the country.
1t is proposed to utilize the hot mud
springs in that region for medicinal pur-
poses, and the fire-clay for brick. Surface
water at Rosamond is found at a depth of
twelve feet and artesian at about $50 feet.
Col. John p Irish, editor of the Alta, is
largely interested in the new settlement,
Col. Hotchkis, of Cotton, and some capital
lists from Sacramento.

A had Beggar.

Mr.. J. C. Tedford went day before yester-
day into the Wells-Fargo express office to
purchase small order for remittance to
San Francisco, and happened to lay the
money down at the cashiers case just as a
mendicant on crutches came in with a
printed card stating that his thighs had
been crushed in mining accident in ANA
dor county Mr.. Tedford was engaged a
beggar attracted his attention TO his card,
and Immediately disappeared-and with
him the money, though it was not at once
missed, the supposition being that the
cashier had taken it. A thieving beggar is
one scarcely safe TO be running loose, and
1t would be charitable to place this one
where he would be fed without the risk of
being tempted to commit q crime,

Beware of the Riverbeds.

Buyers. have you read the statement of
City Engineer Fred Eaton made TO the City
Council? We quote from rrinted copy OF
his remarks as follows. He says: 1.-THE
riverbed has filed, and If another flood
comes with the winter rains the river will
overflow, and come down Alameda street,
thence to Washington, Adams and Jefferson
streets, and so on across the cienega to La
Ballona, which the topography of the coun
try shows to have been the original bed of
the river" He further states that Agricul.
tural Park is thirty-three feet below the
present bed of the river at point due east
The above printed statement can be found
in the Times of october 2sth under the head
of Council" In view of the above, the
Electric Railway Homestead Association
have been led to ascertain the the differ
cnce in elevation between their South Side
tract, on Pico Heights, and the above locali-
ty, aud find by the city levels that it is fifty-
one feet higher than West Jegerson street,
where 1t or sses the city and thence down
ward to the sea.
