BURIED ALIVE.

Two Men Narrowly Escape SuffOca.
ton In East Los Angeles.
Frank Betsworth and Lipera Anschel,
two laboring men vino have been en-
gagged in making excavations for the Los
Angeles Gable Company, on Downey
avenue, met with quite an serious &C.
cident about II 80 yesterday morning.
The two men we're digging ditch, when
the bank suddenly gave way and they
were completely buried under six feet of
earth. A gang OF men were set to
work Immediately and telephone
message sent in for the patrol
wagon. There was such a great
mass of earth on the men that everyone
thought they would never be taken out
alive, but after half an hour of hard work
the rescuers succeeded in discovering the
men. Anschel was taken out first and
sent to the Police Station, where DR..
Morrison made an examination, but
found no bones broken. The man was
badly bruised, however, and will be con-
fined to his bed for some time. Bets.
worth, who is q married man, was sent
to his home at 20 Andrews street, East
Los Angeles. He also escaped without
any broken bones, but was suffering con-
siderable pain, and is thought to have
sustained internal injuries.

A CROOKED CHINAMAN.
An Odd LOcket Found In II
Possession.

An Odd LOcket Found In His
Possession.
A Chinaman, who gave the name Of
All Cow, complained at the Police Sta
ton about o'clock yesterday morning
that he had been robbed by one of his
countrymen. He said he was in the
neighborhood of the old Chinese theater
when he was seized and $50 taken from
him. The Clerk advised him to swear
out warrant, which he did as soon as
court opened, and, accompanied by Off
Ger Boland, started out to look for the
thief. About O'Clock in the afternoon
he was found ON Second street and placed
under arrest. When searched at the station
a silver watch with a solid gold chain
and locket attached to it was found. The
locket, which is nearly square, bears the
following inscription:
"Mr John Brown, from q few of his
friends on his leaving Glasgow for Cali.
fornia, May 4, 1885,"
The officers believe that the watch,
chain and locket are stolen property, az
description of locket of which this
one is nearly counterpart, as far as the
officers remember. was left at the station
over year ago, but the officers have
never been able to locate it. The matter
will be looked up and the Chinaman
asked to explain where he got the goods.

Dummy Line.

Resolutions In Reference TO the
Dummy Line.
The West End Board of Trade, at it's
meeting Wednesday evening, thoroughly
discussed the dummy nuisance and the
Second.street cable extension, and after
An explanation from President McLaugh-
lin ~ to what the two companies wanted
and the Cahuenga Valley Railroad Com
pany was willing to concede, the board
adopted the following resolutions:
Resolued, That it is the sense OF this
board that q franchise should be granted
to the Second-street Gable Company to
extend it's railway to point between
Larch and Burtz streets, conditional
upon the Cahuenga Railway Company
binding itself to remove its dummy line
from Belmont avenue and Temple street.
Resolved, That no franchise for steam
railway should be granted on Second
street.
Mr.. E. P. Fife, of the Lowe Gas Com
pany reported the probability of gas
facilities being extended by his company
south of Second street by pipes from the
proposed Temple street extension.
Major Frew said he doubted if the
proposition to submit the question of a
high school site to popular vote, made
by the Board of Education to the Council,
would be adopted by the Council.
Major Frew said it was a question
whether the Board of Education or the
City Council would select the school sites
and let the contracts for buildings here
after, the State law giving that power to
the Council.
Mr.. Robinson said that the Citizens
Committee perfecting plan for
sewering the city would not accept any
thing to cost over 100000. A report
from them would be submitted inside of
thirty days.

ceived from 7. F. Phillips and F. B.

cautions may be taken to prevent in the
first instance its spread secondly, to dis
cover. if possible, its cause; and,
thirdly, to take measures to remove
or destroy it. Typhoid fever, small
pox, scarlet fever, and kindred infectious
diseases need never extend beyond their
original point Of development if properly
cared for under the instructions of an
intelligent health officer. 1t, therefore, be-
comes the highest duty of citizen to
cooperate with the officer of health to
save not only the community from sick
ness and his fellow citizens from death,
but also to preserve the good name of
his town for heslthfulness and sanitary
salubrity. "There is no doubt" says
late writer. "that the people themselves
are responsible for many of the diseases
which afflict them, and when the art of
preserving health shall have attained to
the same perfection as the means that
now exist for destroying it, we may ex-
pect large reduction in sickness and q
willingness to be governed by sanitary
rules that are now looked upon by large
class of people as interfering with their
personal liberty"

THE STATES HEALTH.
The Lowest Death Rate Ever Re-

The Lowest Death Rate Ever Re.
corded.
The State Board of Health reports 800
deaths in August in the State, the lowest
rate ever recorded in the State. The re-
port closes as follows:
As the organization of local boards Of
health and the appointment of health
officers is now being rapidly accom-
plished in obedience to the State law
making such appointments compulsory,
we would beg to remind all communities
so favored that such organizations or ap-
pointnents can offer no means of
defense against the inroads Of disease
without the active cooperation of the
citizens among whom they are placed.
We know that the prosperity of town
depends much upon its hsslthfulness
and the safety Of life therein it therefore
becomes NEST important that upon the
frst appearance Of any infectious disease
it presence should DO made known to the
officers Of health, that all necessary pre-

THE CABLE ROAD.
First Trial Trip ON the Grand
Avenue Line.

t1Hst lfl0l TIP ON the Gr0nd
Avenue Line.
The first trip was made yesterday over
the new cable line out Grand avenue.
The cable has been in for several days
and has been moving, but it was not
tested with train until yesterday. Sup
erintendent Robinson, accompanied by
his family and by number of other Off
Gals of the line and residents of the
section, rode in the cars.
There was no hitch of any kind, and it
appears that this cable, like it's two pred
ecessors, is destined to start right in
and do good work from the beginning.
Regular trains will be put on tomor-
row. A time table has been prepared
for the two lines with which it connects,
the Plaza line and the Boyle Heights
line. On the former the first train starts
at 6 :05 a. NJ, and they continue every
five minutes until :35 p. m. On the
latter line the trains run every ten min.

PUBLIC WORKS.
several Places visited by the Board
Yesterday.

10otef00ys
The Board of Public Works took its
regular Thursday trip yesterday in re-
Spouse to the various petitions sent in by
the property owners. The first place
visited was New High street. Here the
Abstract Comp any and the Board of Su-
psrvisers had petitioned to have the
street paved with bituminous lime rock,
and as the Court House is to be entered
from this street, it was thought that it
would be we'll to pave between Franklin
street and Bellevue avenue.
Yale street, where it crosses the arroyo
contract will shortly be let for grading
water from the Chavez ravine to escape,
it will be necessary to build conduit or
put pipe in under Yale street. It was
informally decided to recommend that
two thirty-inch pipes be laid under the
street when it is graded.
The Downey-avenue bridge was the
next point of interest. Mr.. William
Lacy, who owns over 200 feet fronting the
bridge on the south side of Downey ave-
nue., asks So 900 damages caused by the
bridge being placed in front of his prop.
erty. Some time since it was decided to
allow him 81 200, but it appears that this
amount will not be accepted. No con-
clusion was reached in the matter.
The east approach of the bridge was
examined, and it was demonstrated that
in order to save it from being washed
away by the storms this winter, storm
drains must be constructed. 1t was de-
cided to recommend that they be put in.
At Chestnut street where branch of the
cable company's lines comes into Dow
ney avenue, it was found that the water
passage had been INSTRUCTED, and it was
decided to recommend that the cable
company be instructed to put a pipe in
under the street.
n The DAILY street bridge was visited and
the proposition Of the residents to change
it's location 100 feet north was consid.
cred. 1t was decided to let the matter
stand over for week to give Captain
Cross of the Glendale railroad a chance
to explain his project as regards q via
duct.
The storm-water question on Kuhrt.
street was next considered. Last winter
lake was formed here, and the resi-
dents were compelled to find entrance to
and exit from their houses by the bach
doors. The faulty grade of the street
was the cause, and it is now the opinion
that the only way out of the difficulty il
to construct storm water drain to the
river.
One or two other places we're visited
but they only involved small amount
of work by the Street Superintendent.

Hints to HOusekeepers.

THE white of an egg, with little
water and sugar, is good for children
with an irritable stomach.
AS the table is the place where most
waste occurs, guard it we'll and pay
strict attention to the second serving of
food.
OLIVE OIL saturated with camphor
makes an excellent application for in
flammatory swellings; also for rub
bling rheumatic joints.
To clarity sugar for ices: Take twelve
pounds of sugar, twelve pints of water,
half the white of one egg, well beaten
up; add to it the water and boil ten min
utes. This is used in all water ices.
COFFEE pounded in a mortar and
roasted on an iron plate, sugar burned
on hot Goals and vinegar boiled with
myrrh and sprinkled on the floor and
furniture of sick-room are excellent
deodorizers.

Scorpions Committing Suicide.

Lately M. Serge Noirkoff of Con-
stantinople gave an instance of the
sort in question. He caught half
dozen of these creatures, he says, and
deliberately put the question to the test.
Arranging on the floor circle of glow
ing charcoal, having no break in it, a
scorpion was placed in the center Al
though the circle was large enough to
prevent the scorpion being injured, or
even incommoded by the heat if it re-
NAMED in the middle, the animal, find
ing itself surrounded by fire, began to
look about for the means of escape. At
first its movements were slow, but soon
its speed increased, and finally it raced
in frantic fashion around the inner
circumference of the charcoal. After
racing for some time in this manner it
retired to the center of the ring, and
deliberately plunging its sting into its
back, put an end to its life in few sec
onds after few convulsive move
ments. The remaining five were tried
successfully in the same way, and each
with like result.-Ld Nature.

The Nations Dead.

Distributed among the eighty-five ma
tional cemeteries of the United States
are 325, 230 soldiers graves, of which
Ass are marked Unknown At
Vicksburg are 1865 graves, at Nash
vile 1888 and at Arlington l6, 254, the
other cemeteries containing less num-
bers. The cost of the cemeteries has
been from S250,000 down. AT Airing
ton single granite monument covers
the bones of 2,ll1 unknown soldiers,
gathered after the war from the fields
of Bull Run and the route to the Rap
pahannock. The grave of General
Sheridan is at Arlington. Near Sails
bury, n. c., in trenches occupying
space not more than four hundred feet
square, are buried the bodies of II, 700
Union prisoners. The emaciated
bodies of the poor wretches were
hauled from the prison-pens and piled
in trenches like so many sticks of cord
wood.

to be in his element. He enters into
the spirit of the battle like human be-
ing. He shows no fear of death, and
1t is singular that If his mate is shot
down he will turn to look at him and
seem pleased. A horse in nv battery
was once struck by a piece of shell
which split his skull so that one side
was loose. The driver turned him
loose, but he walked up by the side of
the gun and watched the firing, and
when shot was fred would look away
in the direction of the enemy, as if to
see the effect of the shot. When a
shell would burst near by he would
calmly turn and look at it. When he
saw his own team going back for am
munition he ran back to his own place
and galloped back to the caisson with
the rest. When the lieutenant pushed
him aside to put in another horse he
looked at the other one sorrowfullv
while he was being harnessed up, and
when he seemed to realize that there
was no further use for him he lay down
and died. The lieutenant strongly as
serted that he died of broken heart.
At the time that Adams, Jackson's
and Preston's brigades charged me at
Murfreesboro an officer was killed and
the brigades we're driven back. But
the fallen officers horse had not been
taught to retreat, and he did not. He
just came at full speed through the bat
terry, and | tell you he looked simply
grand. He was a large, fine animal,
his nostrils were extended wide, his
eyes fairly blazed, and he clutched the
bit with his teeth as he came on. He
came like the wind, and, with his saddle
flaps flying, he looked as if he were fly
ing himself instead of running. Every
body gave him wide berth, and l called
to the infantry that | would give 500
to the man who would catch him; but
no one tried it, and he is running yet
for all know of him-,San Francisco
Chronicle.

Bridge

The pressure of air in caissons at
ITO feet below the surface of the water
would be fifty pounds to the square inch.
Its effect upon the men entering and
working in the caisson has been care
fully noted in various works, and these
effects are sometimes very serious. The
frequency of respiration is increased,
the action of the heart becomes excited,
and many persons become affected by
what is known as the caisson dis
ease" which is accompanied by ex-
IRENE pain, and in many cases results
in more or less complete paralysis. The
execution of work within deep pneu-
matte caisson is worth a moments con-
sideration. Just above the surface of
the water is a busy force engaged in
laying the solid blocks of masonry which
are to support the structure. Great
derricks lift the stones and lay them in
their proper position. Powerful pumps
are forcing air, regularly and at uniform
pressure, through tubes to the chamber
below. Occasionally a stream of sand
and water issues with such velocity
from the discharge pipe that, in the
night, the friction of the particles
causes 1t to look like stream of living
fire. Far below is another busy force.
Under the great pressure and abnormal
supply OF oxygen they work with an
energy which makes it impossible to
remain there more than few hours.
The water from without is only kept
from entering by the steady action of
the pumps far above and beyond their
control. An irregular settlement might
overturn the structure. Should the de-
scent of the caisson be arrested by any
solid under its edge, immediate and ju-
dicious action must be taken. If the
obstruction be a log, it must be cut off
outside the edge and pulled into the
chamber. Boulders must be under
mined and often must be broken up by
blasting. The excavation must be sys-
tematic and regular. A constant danger
menaces the lives of these workers,
and the wonderful success with which
they have accomplished what they have
undertaken is entitled to notice and adj
miration.-Scribner.
