Traffic Changes.
The statement made by contempor-
ary that Mr.. Charles Forman, the man"
ager of the cable car lines, had left the
company and returned to his home at
Virginia City, is rather premature, as
MIR. Forman in company with Superin-
tendent Robinson, has simply gone to
San Francisco on business and will re-
turn about Monday next. Since the
transfer of the roads to the Chicago SYM
dicate Mr.. Forman signs himself as
Assistant General Manager, the chief
dignitary of the system being at Chi
cago. 1t is expected that there will be
good many changes among the officials
of the system here on the first of the
year.
The two-horse car line now etops at
the town side Of the Downey-avenue
bridge and transfers are issued to the
mule line for the accommodation of pas
sengers for East Los Angeles.
Work on the cable car trench on San

The New Line to santa Monica
Nearly Completed.
The tracklayers on the new Santa
Monica road being built by the Los An
geles and Pacific will be into Santa
Monica tonight and the line therefore
completed, as the elevated part of the
road by which the ocean bluff is reached
has been finished for some time. There
will still remain some surfacing, which
will occupy the workmen for few days,
and then everything will be done but
the depots. Mr.. Shaw stated yesterday
that the road will be put in
operation on the first OF the year in spite
OF the fact that seaside travel is light at
this season. The line is sure to obtain a
big share of patronage, as it runs through
a very interesting section of country and
is also the means OF communication with
the Soldiers Home. The fact that there
will be competitor in the field will
doubtless stir up the Southern Pacific,
and inducements to travellers are liable
to be pretty good when the ocean travel
opens up again.

LIVE EVIDENCE.
A Hog which Distur bed the Peace
of the Temple Block.


of the Temple Block.
A live hog was filed as an exhibit o.
evidence in Justice Taney's Court yes
terday afternoon, in the case of the Peo-
pie VS.. John Sepulveda. The hog is 9
big black animal belonging either to A.
Dominguez or to Francisco Ruiz, which
had been accustomed to run wild in the
cai1ons about Las Virgines, and was not
much disposed to behave as it should
when introduced into court. Ruiz had
claimed the animal and had sent Sepul-
veda to get it, which he did.
Thereupon Dominguez had a warrant
issued for Sepulveda's arrest on the
ground that he had stolen it. AS some
of the witnesses were not quite certain
that this was the particular hog to Thicb
Dominguez laid claim, it was thought
best to bring the animal into court.
Justice G. M. Bragg presided over the
court in the absence Of Justice Taney
When it was proposed to bring the hog
into court there was some laughter among
the spectators.
"Now we don't want to make q bur-
lesque of this business" said the Court,
solemnly. "If the pig is to be put in as
evidence, very we'll; but shall fine any,
body for contempt of court that laughs" /"
AT this every face in the room became
preternaturally grave as it was evident
the Court was in earnest. In the mean
time there was great squealing and
roaring out in the hall and the sound of
many voices giving advice to the man
who had the animal in charge, it being a
we'll known fact that everybody knows
better how to manage a pig tEan the
man who has hold of the string.
"The Court will adjourn to look at the
pig" said Justice Bragg, and the law
yers, witnesses and spectators Gro wded
out into the hall. The animal was lifted
out of the box in which he was confined
and put on all fours on the floor. No
sooner did he feel himself at liberty than
he made break to get out of the crowd
and lodged between the bow legs of a
member Of the bar who was standing
near, almost upsetting him. L. the next
few seconds there was lively scrim-
mage accompanied by much squealing
and snorting. At last the pig was re-
captured and thrust back into his box
and the trial went on. A decision in
the matter will be reached to-day.

saved by this process to compensate the
Yorbas. If the district was formed
everybody in it would be entitled to
water, whereas now y these who oya
-hares in the Water Company can get
water, and then there is not enough.
Without the proper distribution OF water
the population will not come to the dis
tr C. He claimed that the Yorba ditcht 3
lost a good deal of water, and said he
had measured the water in one instance
and found that a stream was reduced
from 300 inches to 200 inches in two
mile ditch. This loss could be saved if
district was formed and cement bitches
built.
On the side of the protestants, who de.
sire to be left out Of the district, wit.
nesses testified that Yorbas held the
right to the water under Mexican
grant, many years old, and that they had
used the water so long that the right had
become vested in them. The people be-
low them on the river had no right to the
water, because even if allowed to run, it
would not reach them, but would sink in
the sand. Waving this question of
vested right, which would be settled ty
the courts, it would be unjust to take the
water and divide it under the provision
of the Wright bill. This bill provides
that the most valuable land gets the most
water, and as the Yorba land is less val
liable than that to the west, it will get
proportionately less water, whereas, be-
ing by nature sandy, it needs more. If
the district is formed then the people on
the Yorba lands will be ruined.
Mr.. Marcus Yorba testified that he re-
sided on the land since 1885, and the
water had been used ever since he could
remember.
The Board took the matter under ad-
visement.

RAILROAD GOSSIP.
The improvements at Bakersfield.
New PullmRns.


New Pullmans.
Mr.. H. s. Van Arnam, the Chicago
Passenger Agent of the Southern Pacific,
returned yesterday from San Francisco.
He says that work is progressing favor
ably on the new machine shops at Bak-
ersfeld, which, when completed, will
employ 800 men. All the repairs, be-
tween the north side of Mount Tehachipe
and good distance the other side of
Bakersfield are to be done there, leaving
everything on this side of the mountains
to the Yuma division for the shops that
are to be established here. A fine
brick depot, a freight house and a
lunch room are also being erected at
Bakersfield by the Southern Pacific, as
since that town has become passenger
division it has assumed considerable i'm
portance. Tulare will naturally suffer a
little thereby, as the railroad men bring
good deal of patronage.
Mr.. Van Arnam said that he had not
heard the officials say anything about
the proposed vestibuled train between
Los Angeles and San Francisco, and
added that he did not think it was at all
needed. The vestibuled train was more
of luxury for winter travel, and as it is
perpetual summer here, one of its prin-
cipal features is, therefore, lost. Mr..
Van Arnam said that the Southern Pacific
has added forty new Pullman cars to
its equipment during the past year, each
of which was an Improvement in some
way, no matter how trivial, on the
former one. The result is that the latest
coaches are such fine pieces of work
manship that for the short journey be-
tween here and San Francisco they are
practically all that can be desired.

ANAHEIM WATER.
The Proposition to Form n District
Contested.

The Proposition to Form a District
Contested.
The Supervisors were occupied yester-
day for the major portion of the day in
hearing evidence in the matter of the
petition for the formation of the Ana
helm Water District, to which protest
was made by the residents on the Yorba
grant. A number of witnesses were in
troduced on both sides of the question,
and the Supervisors have taken the mat
ter under consideration. The witnesses
on behalf of the petitioners for the
formati of the district testified that the
usual amount of water in the Santa Ana
River at the point where it is taken out
is about l 200 inches. OF this amount
the courts had decided that one.half was
to 90 south of the river and the other
half north. OF the 600 inches for the
land north of the river the Yorbas have
been taking all they wanted, and the rest
has gone into the Cajon ditch for sup
plying the balance of the land in the
proposed district, or about 3S 900 acres.
The people on this 3S, 900 acres therefore
petitioned to have an irrigation district
formed under the provisions ofthe Wright
bill, so that the 600 inches OF water
might be equally divided.
Mr.. VIM. McFadden testified that the
formation of the district was a public
necessity and that it must included the
Yorba rancho in order that the water
might be obtained. The Cajon ditch
cost 100000 and it would be made to
carry the water to irrigate the whole dis
trict without any loss as is at present the
case. If the district is organized the
Cajon ditch will be appropriated md be-
come part of the system and the whole
acreage of the district will be assessed TO
pay for the construction Of reservoirs to
store water for summer use.
Mr.. Wood and other witnesses testified
that at present there are many parts OF
the district which cannot be irrigated on
account of lack of water. This lack
they alleged was due to the fact that the
Yorbas used more than their proportion.
The lay of the land is such that the
Yorba land must be included in the dis
trict in order to obtain the water. 1t the
district is formed then an assessment
can be levied on all the property and the
bitches can be cemented, rendering
waste an impossibility.
Mr.. Hunter testified that every year
lately the water has been getting less
and less owing to the fact that the people
at Orange, Riverside and South River.
side had been using more. He considered
it to the advantage of the whole distric,
to construct reservoirs and lay pipes, ano
he believed that enough water could be

A SHARP BARGAIN.
He Told Where He Sold a Shooting
Jacket.

Jacket.
John Barker is the name of man who
got into trouble yesterday by reason OF
an ill advised effort to make his candle
burn at both ends. Tuesday evening, it
is alleged, he went into the gun store of
the Tufts-Lyon Arms Company on First
street and began to look over some cord
uroy shooting jackets that were lying on
shelf. Mr.. Lyon asked him what he
wished and he replied in a thick and
slightly dizzy tone of voice that he was
s'just lookinsh round" A few minutes
later Barker was gone together with one
of the jackets, leaving no clue behind
except a long trail OF whisky breath.
Yesterday morning he came into the
store again, still somewhat under the in
fuence of liquor, and coolly asked Mr..
Lyon if he had missed anything. Lyon
said he had missed shooting jacket.
"That jacket is all right" said Barker,
"for so cents will show you the place
where it now is."
The joke struck Mr. Lyon as we'll worth
so cents, and he agreed to the arrange
ment. Barker led the way to the Com
mercial street depot and pointed to the
secondhand shop which was across the
street. Lyon went across and sure enough
there was the coat. The new owner was
not in favor of giving it up and Officer
Dorsey was called upon to adjudicate the
matter.
"Where did you get the coat?" he
asked of the dealer.
"A man who was little drunk hav-
ing d black birth mark under his eye
sold it to me last night" he answered.
"That is the very man." said Lyon,
and taking the coat the two started in
search of Barker. The latter was soon
captured and lodged in the police station
on the charge Of petty larceny. Mr..
Lyon paid him the fifty cents as prom
ised, and as Barker had also received a
similar sum the night before from the
dealer, he is exactly 81 ahead. After
Justice Austin is done with him, how
ever, the profits Of the scheme will prob
ably have dwindled into insignificsnce.
