A Card From Dr. Barber.

EDITORS HERALD-My attention has
been called to an article in last Sundays
HERALD entitled, "a Queer Surgeon"
AS my name figures in it, and reflection
is made upon me, / will simply state the
facts in the case and leave the public to
Judge where wrong doing has been done,
and open the.eyes of the uninitiated as to
what means certain limbs Of the law
have to resort to during these dull times
to rustic business. In the first place
had claim pertaining to land transac-
ton against G. s. Norcross, obtained
Judgment against him and attached
certain chattels, which other members of
the Norcross family claimed; and sued
the Constable for OBTAINING; and as the
Constable failed to appear and answer,
the case went by default, and their claim
of 5000 for damages was allowed. The
day before this complaint was made
against me. went into court and upon
statement of facts, Judge Mckinley
promptly set aside the judgment and re-
opened the case. At this point, the attor-
neys of the Norcrosses, Messrs. Wicks and
Ward, with their associate counsel, one
Geo,g ge Varcoe, saw their legal fees but
dimly, and hence this prosecution. AS
basis for their action they took the fact
that last winter (by the earnest solicita-
ton OF this only son of his mother, the
complainant in this case) I had set the
broken arm of the old mother of Nor.
cross, which had been neglected two
days and treated by these intelligent (?)
people by blister. l told them | had
retired from practice and would do no
private work; however, l did take of
the blister and set her arm to relieve her
suffering on purely humanitarian grounds
and then went about my business, as
suming no further responsibility in the
case, as there were two physicians within
their reach that they could get.
l will further state that my license to
practice medicine was on file in Alamo.
da county, where l had lived for thirteen
years and still had my legal residence,
when, as the complaint recites, l will
fully and maliciously" committed the
misdemeanor-of removing the blister
and setting the broken arm of this aged
woman.
Since the above complaint was filed l
have received a scurrilous open postal
through the mail, stamped from Los An.
geles, but without signature. This postal
was written in bold, legal hand, and
correctly spelled, and, as the Norcrosses
cannot spell or write correctly, comment
is unnecessary. But you can be assured,
Mr.. Editor, that l never pay tribute to
blackmalers. Respectfully yours,
E. t. BARBER.

THE COMING FAIR.
Meeting of the D1rectOrs-SOme De

Meeting of the D1rectOrs-SOme De.
layed Entries.
The District Agricultural Association
will hold a meeting on Monday next, at
2 o'clock p. M, at the Chamber of Com
merce rooms, which all manufacturers of
machinery and power have been invited
to attend. The purpose of the consulta-
ton is to devise some arrangement for
supplying power at the coming fair to all
who desire to exhibit machinery or
pumping apparatus.
Some changes have necessarily been
made in the race programme as it was
first advertised. No. 3, the 80 stallion
race, did not fill, and No. %, the 2:20
trotting, was advanced to that place in
the list. No. IA, the :25 class, was also
declared off by not filling, and in its
place for Thursday, the Directors have
advertised guarantee purse of $4,000,
for all horses of the 2:20 class. This race
ought to bring some splendid entries, as
it certainly will excite great deal OF en-
thusiasm.
The Directors made arrangements for
a polo game to be given at the Park dur
ing the race week by the Santa Monica
Polo Club, and a steeple chase on Satur'
day, the last day. There will be other
amusements, both at the track and at the
pavilion. OF this more will be an
nounced later on.

THE FEDERAL COURTS.
The United states Gran Jury finds
SIX indictments.

The United states Gran Jury finds
SIX indictments.
The United States Grand Jury yester-
day submitted their final report and were
discharged. The report is as follows,
To the Hon. Erskine NJ. Ross, United
States District Judge, Southern District
of California:
We have the honor to submit our final
report, consisting of six indictments
found since the last partial report.
As grand jurors we have examined
during this term twenty-five cases and
found twenty indictments. In 80 doing
we have examined 121 witnesses.
We desire to thank the United States
Marshal and his deputies for courtesies
extended to us while in Office. We can
say no more of the United States Attor-
ney, George j. Denis, who is about to
retire from Office, than to repeat the Ian
euage of the Attorney General of the
United States, who said to him, in ac-
cepting his resignation, that in him the
Government loses faithful and efficient
officer. Very respectfully,
P. H. LEMMERT,
Foreman U. s. Grand Jury.
Los Angeles, August g. 1889.
The following Indictments are these
presented:
Edward Crawford, Ramon Ferrar and
Pomocino Valencia, selling liquor to In
dians. Bail fixed at $500 in each case.
Estevan Soto, assault to kill Francisco
Nejo, an Indian, on the Mesa Grande
Reservation on June 2, 1889. Bail
81, 900.
W. w. Wyman, mailing an obscene
letter on June %, 1889, addressed to
Miss Carrie M. Arnold. Bail $1,000.
D. Wallach, of San Diego. sending q
postal card through the mail with de-
famatory language on its face. He wrote
to Arthur Abram saying that he had
received letter from his folks in Mis-
souri, that he had no idea he was such
an Internal scoundrel and thief as to
steal $4,000, and try to steal 1000 more.
Later in the day Wallach pleaded
guilty to the charge and was fined $25.
Valencia also pleaded guilty to selling
liquor to Indians and was ordered to jail
for three months.
During the afternoon T. B. Brown,
ESQ, came before Clerk Owen with D.
r. Donnegan and John McMenomy, who
qualified in the sum of $40 900 as suretiea
for T. J. Cuddy, charged with attempting
to influence juror in the More Youne
distilling case from Fresno.
This is rather a peculiar case. Tue
United States District Attorney, Geo. ]
Denis, some weeks ago resigned his
office, the resignation to take effect next
Monday. The administration has thus
far neglected to fill the vacancy, and i.
is understood that Mr.. Denis will not act
after next Monday night. There will be 6
hiatus in the office.
Justice Stephen j. Field came into the
city by the train from San Francisco
yesterday. He will sit with Judge Rosi
today, and among other business T. j
Cuddy's case will come before him on 8
writ of habeas corpus.

The RissO Case.

EDITORS HERALp-Gentlemen Under
the head of Neglected" in your col
umns of today you give certain
woman's statement of the facts relative
to sale made by me to James Castruc-
clio of certain real estate in this city.
Permit me to offer some corrections.
First. The property in question is not
worth $35, 900, nor was it ever worth that
sum. Its market price today is $3.50.
l received $1,000 for it. had previously
offered it for $40, 900, go l do not see how
Castruccio made such an advantageous
purchase as your statement would lead
people to believe.
Secondly. 1t is true that the lady re-
ferred to in your article filed two COM
plants against me, and for the causes
mentioned; but it is false in 30 far that |
have neglected to provide for her and
her children, or to abandon them. For
reasons best known to myself and to her
| chose to sever my connection with her.
How much che values her claim upon
me and the yearning affection she bears
for her offspring, is best shown by the
fact that she today executed the follow
ing document:
"Know all men by these presents, that
I, Luisa Carbone, of Los Angeles city,

tion of the sum of five hundred dollars

acknowledged, have remised, released
and forever discharged, and by these
presents do, for myself, my heirs,
executors and administrators and rs.
signs, excepting Charles and Ida Risso.
hereby remise, release, discharge and

tenance, action and actions, suits, debts

ever in law or in equity, which l evel

clare that we, the said Marcellino Rissc
and myself we're never married; and
hereby agree that the said Marcellinc

the Ballona route; but he objects to
running the sewage into the river on the
grounds that it is dry in the summer,
and also on the grounds that it would
injure the surface wells In the settle
ments below the point where it is
emptied into the river. But how about
the five hundred and eight thousand
dollars ($50S, ,000) for storm sewers,
which is either for storm water alone,
in which the majority of the taxpayers
have no interest whatever; or else 1t
is for storm water and sewage, the
sewage to be deposited in the river
when it is dry and to constitute the same
nuisance that he objects to in giving his
reasons why the Ballona route should be
selected. But why, the taxpayers ask,
should they vote for this s50S,000 for
storm drain sewers. to get a $44, 900 out
fall sewer. j. W. PoTTs.

MEMORIAL.
We are sad and lonely now,
Since BRO. Charley passed away,
He left this vale Of tears,
Just after break Of day.
In his sickness, what he suffered,
There is no human tongue can tell,
Until death at last released HIM,
And took from those he loved 80 well.
From ranks we now will miss him.
And our watchful tender care,
We can never more caress him,
Nor fill his vacant chair.
Hope and pray that up in heaven,
Dwelling with the God Of love,
We may join our brother Charley.
In his peaceful home above.
Written by John Garner.
