NEWS ABOUT TOWN.
An Old Man Injured While
Blasting Rock.
BURGLAR SHOT BY A WOMAN
A Lively Fire just Before Midnight.
Other Items of Local
Interest.

Z About o'clock last night Mrs. Frank
Toal drove up to the Police Station and
notified Captain Roberts that an old man
had been injured while blasting rock and
was apparently in dying condition out
at her ranch. DIR. Wing, the Assistant
Police Surgeon, was requested by the
Captain to visit the place and attend TO
the injured man, and as it was too far
away from the station to permit the
patrol wagon to make the journey, the
doctor drove out in q hack. On his ar.
rival at Mr.. Toal's the doctor found an
old man about go years of age lying upon
cot in the open air about fifty feet from
the house. He said his name was Pat
Lee and that while blasting some rock
about sundown, charge exploded be-
fore he had time to get out of danger
and huge rock struck him in the
back. Upon examination it was discov-
cred that two of his ribs, the
fifth and sixth on the left side, were
broken and the bones had pierced the
lung. In addition to these old Lee had
sustained other less serious injuries,
Splinters Of the blasted rock having
lacerated his right hand in several
places. The injured man was suffering
great pain and was unable to move his
left arm, but on being bandaged by the
surgeon he expressed himself as much
easier, and in the absence of any means
of conveyance, owing to the lateness OF
the hour, he was left in the care of Mrs.
Toal until this morning, when he will be
removed to the County Hospital. Old
Lee had been working on Mrs. Toal's
ranch for some time past, doing chores
and odd jobs round the place in return
for his hoard and lodpinp.

amounted to about 1000. Mr.. and Mrs.
Bolder were not at home at the time of
the fire, and had left the house in charge
OF Amanda Dryer, who said that q tail
negr9 had been sleeping in the upper
part of the house. Shortly hefore
the fire he came running down
the stairs, and she asked him
if he had light up there, but he did not
answer. Shortly afterward she heard
the cracking of the fire, and calling her
daughter, made her escape from the
building. The police stated that the
house did not bear the best of reputa-
tlons, and that some OF it's occupants had
consumed considerable liquor at times.
The colored man, although searched for,
could not be found, and the origin of the
fire is unknown.

BARLEY SHIPMENTS.
High Standard Of the Grain Of this

Section.
The shipments of brewing barley to
the East continue. About 500 tons
have been sent in all, most of them
from San Bernardino county. The crop
has been largely handled by the dealers
Of this city. The grain which has been
shipped meets with the approval of east
ern brewers and orders for !, 900 tons are
now on the books of one firm in this city.
The price, which at the beginning Of the
season was so cents, has steadily risen
until it is now 67h@70. When the
standard Of excellence for No. brewing
was established by the Produce Exchange
Call Board in San Francisco, it was
found that the barley of this section was
above the grade which was adopted. tap
pears from the reports coming from the
East that the crop there, though ~ large
as usual, is not Of very high standard.
These two facts are likely to have the
effect of occasioning larger shiDments of
barley east for brewing purposes than is
usual.

A WOMAN OF NERVE.
EIrs. Quinn, of Ell Monte, Peppers a
Burglar

MTSs quinn, Oh Ell Monte, Peppers q
Burglar.
Friday morning at about 2 O'Clock,
when, according to the old saw, honest
men ought to be in bed and rogues on
their way to theirs, Mrs. Quinn, of Ell
Monte, was fulfilling the first part of the
programme, and was quietly taking her
rest. She was alone in bed, Mr.. Quinn
being absent in San Diego county, on
Warmers ranch, of which he is foreman.
Some noise, like that of opening drawer,
awoke the lady, and she called out,
"Who is there?" No answer coming
back, she called the name of young
boy who lives with her. Still no response
was given, 80 she asked if it was the
hired man, who sleeps in another part oil
the house. AT the continued
interrogation the intruder became
afraid that the other inmai es of the house
might be awakened, so he aaid, "You
keep still" Mrs. Quinn retorted, 81
will show you how to keep STILL" and
without rising up in bed she turned over
so as to get q pistol from beneath her
pillow. At this juncture the robber fred
q shot which imbedded itself in the head
of the bed dangerously near to the head
Of the woman. Then the murderous
rufiau fed out Of the room with the
brave and irate woman following him.
In the hall she caught glimpse of the
fellow and let fly at him as he made for
the open window through which he
had entered, she pinked him a, second
time. He groaned deeply as he was hit,
and scrambling out of the window
rested moment on the porch !;
here Mrs. Quinn fred third
shot at him, which caused him to beat a
precipitous retreat through the back
yard and over the rear fence into the
willows.
Mrs. Quinn then quietly closed up the
house again and went back to bed. In
the morning it was found that wherever
the fellow had rested his hands or stood
for a moment there were copious stains
of blood. 1t looks as if he had been pep
pered twice by the brave defender of her
home, once in the hand or arm, and
once in the lower part of the body or
lower limbs. Pools of blood were viDible
wherever he stood for few moments.
Yesterday morning diligent search
was made for the robber, and news was
sent to the Sheriff's Office in this city.
The officers went out after him, but got
on to ono or two false trails that turned
to no account. Deputies Hammell and Joe
Aguirre went on to Ell Monte, and traced
the man by his blood into the willows
near the river, where all traces were
lost.
It looks like the work of novice.
Although he entered by the window the
back door Of the house was just by him,
but he neglected to open that sc
az to allow him free means oi
retreat through the hall. An old
hand would not have shot at the woman
under the circumstances, but would have
got out of the house as soon as he found
she was awake.
The man was 90 badly hurt he never
could have made his escape unless he
was backed up by confederate, who
took him away in a wagon; or else he il
a man who lived near by, and who knew
Quinn was away. A close search in E
Monte may discover the villain in bee
nursing his wounds. d;lss s;a,sss

A Late Alarm.
About II 80 O'Clock last night Officer
Dorsey discovered fire in a two-story.
and-a-half lodging house on the corner
of Lszard and Center streets. During
the evening he had noticed light in
the window Of the upper half story,
which he thought was strange, for he
had not noticed lights in that window
before for long time. The fire when
he saw it came from the upper part of
the building, Dear this window, and by
the time the alarm was turned in the
upper half of the building, which
was kept by Henry Bolder as q
lodging. house was in flames. The fire
department arrived shortly after, and
owing to the smallness of the water mains
was unable to put much water on the fire
as quickly as it would have done had they
been larger, and the consequence was
