BURNED AT ORANGE.
Another Accident Caused by a Gas
Oline stove.

Another Accident Caused by a Gas
Oline Stove.
A distressing accident occurred at the
Plaza Hotel, Orange, the early part of
this week. Mrs. M. G. Cooley, the pro-
prietress, had small gasoline stove in
use, and as it was not burning fiercely
enough to suit her requirements, she pro-
ceeded to fill it from large measure con-
tanning the fluid. She did not take the
precaution, however, to first extinguish
the burning jet, and as a result thereof
there was flash, and the can she was
holding ignlted, she, in her ter
ror, dropping it on the floor.
In minute the room was
in a Blaze, and Mrs. Cooley's gar
ments also took fire, making that lady
scream vigorously for assistance, which
fortunately soon arrived. By the ener-
getic efforts of number of neighbors,
the flames were extinguished before they
had time to gain control over the build
ing, and in the meantime Mrs. Cooley
had been wrapped in blankets, and her
burning garments thus put out. She
was not very seriously hurt, though she
has sustained number OF rather bad
burns.

The eight banks which are members

their deposits amount to $40, ,246 ,639. 80
their cash $5, 1877, 1856. .s3, which is nearly
81 per cent. of their deposits, greater
percentage perhaps than will be found in
any other city of the United States

will be found statement of the
deposits, cash and loans of these differ
ent banks. showing the difference be.
tween their statements of June 3Oth and
those Of the first of the year; also the
percentage Of deposits on hand in cash.
There has been decrease in the volume
of business, but the percentage OF money
on hand has been materially increased
This indicates that the city has conserva-
tive bankers. The California Bank, the
youngest in the city, shows by far the
smallest rate per cent of loss and is only
l per cent. behind in showing the largest
per cent. of cash on hand. The Farmers

ahead.

sent to Akron, O., for all the heavy ma
chinery to be used in the works. The
making of this machinery will be pushed
along with good dispatch and it is hoped
that it will be here by the time the build
ing is ready for its reception. All other
matters of preparation are being attended
to in most business-like manner. The
Santa Fe Company is about to build a
spur eight miles in length from the
depot at Elsinore to the bed whence
the clay is to be taken. Two
thirds of the material used in making the
pipe comes from this bed of clay, and the
other third is found here in Los Angeles.
Crude petroleum is to be used in the
burning of the pipe, and that is obtained
much cheaper here than at Elsinore.
The works will employ $50 hands, and it
is much easier to secure men here than
at distance from large center of popu-
lation. There is no risk in stating that
this sewer-pipe enterprise is one Of the
greatest importance to Los Angeles.

SAN PEDRO REJOICES.
The Corner Stone Laid for the Pub
lie Library.

Yesterday was gala day at San Pc
dro, the occasion for the festivities being
the laying of the corner stone for the
Public Library on Seventh street. The
ceremony was performed under the
auspices Of the Masonic fraternity, and
the trowel was handled by Grand
Master George Kinds, Collector of the
port, assisted by DR.. H. S. Orme and
Rev. Will A. Knighten, of this city. In
addition to large attendance of Masons,
the Knights of Pythias and Ancient
Order of United Workmen were repre-
sented. President Leishman, of the San
Pedro Library Society, opened the pro-
ceedings with an eloquent ad-
dress, in which he narrated the
circumstances under which the
library project was started and of the
donation of lot for that purpose by Mr..
Weston and Mrs. Narbonne on the con-
ditions that it shall always remain for
the benefit OF the public. Some stirring
music by the San Pedro, band then fol-
lowed, after which the corner stone was
laid by Grand Master Kinds, the re-
ceptacle. containing among other articles
copies OF the Los Angeles HERALD. Tri-
o~te, At"oo, G'tPfeoo oAu Dali ouIo CttP-
per. Some good organ music was fur
dished by Mrs. Kelsey, after which the
Rev. Will. A. Knighten delivered an elo-
quent oration which concluded the pro-
ceedings. A very toothsome collation.
was served in the San PEI
dro Hall, and in the evening
grand ball fttingly wound up the
festivities. Seven well-filled coaches
conveyed the participants from Los An
geles, in addition to which host came
in by road from the surrounding country.
The little seaport town was fairly aglow
with life during the day and the occasion
will ever be remembered there as one of
the most pleasant in the city's history.
Work on the library, which is to be
two-story brick structure, will be corn
menced at an early date and pushed
rapidly to completion.
