NEWS ABOUT TOWN.
The Cahuenga Valley People
Form a Union.
TWO BOYS GET OUT OF JAIL.
A Queer Gaze That Came Up Before
Judge shaw Yesterday ON
Haheas. Corpus.

A well-attended meeting Of the Ga
huenga Township Producers Union was
held Monday evening at the Pass school
house.
The committee appointed at the last
meeting for that purpose, presented .
constitution and bylaws, which, with 9
few important amendments, were
adopted.
The constitution sets forth as the OBJ
ject Of the Union, ''the mutual advan-
tsge of it's members by providing ways
aud means for the disposal of the
products of their several occupations" /"
The article on membership sets forth
that "sny reputable citizen of Cahuengs
township is eligible to membership on
his or her application, provided he or
che is in harmony with the purposes of
the Union." 'sThe Board Of Directors,
together with the President and Secre-
tary, shall constitute the Executive Com
mittee," which, among it's other duties,
"shall appoint subcommittee
to look after the special lines of pro-
duction."
The following officers were elected for
the ensuing year: President, p. 7.
Durfy; Vice-President, M. L. Yager
Secretary, Seward Cole; Treasurer, Miss
Bristol; Board of Directors, Daniel
Penman, Jacob Miller and A. II.
Denker.
A short recess was taken, after which
the Executive Committee reported the
appointment of the following sub-com-
mittees: On vegetables, w. 8. Bene-
dict, w. L. Yager and Charles G.. Moll !;
on sugar beets, @. Cole, A. 81. Denker
and F. J. Moll.
There will be special meeting of the
Union, at the Laurel school house, Mon
day next, at 7:30 p. m, which all the
farmers of the Cahusnga Township are
requested to attend. The Committee on
Vegetables also announce their wish to
meet at the same time and place, all
those especially interested in the vege-
table line.
The Cahuenga producers feel deep
interest in this movement, and hope
that the farmers of other townships in
this and other counties of Southern Cali
fornia will form their own local associa-
tions, and meet them half way in their
endeavor to secure reasonable returns
for the products of the soil.

A BICYCLIsT's CANE.
He is Held TO Answer Before a
Superior Court.

He IL Held to Answer Before tn,
Superior Court.
Justice Theodore Savage held a pre-
liminary examination in the Township
Court yesterday afternoon into the charge
of embezzlement preferred against Fl
johnson by w. s. Wing, resulting in the
defendant being held to answer the
charge in the Superior Court under $4O(
bonds. From the testimony of the three
witnesses examined for the prosecution
it was shown that on. the Oath day o1
August last johnson called at the store
of Messrs. Osborne & Alexander on West
Third street to hire bicycle. Ashe had
several times hired machines from the
firm previously, Osgood, the clerk in
charge of.the store on the occasion in
question, allowed johnson to pick out q
54inch roadster bicycle and ride away
upon 1t without question. Az the
bicycle was not returned that
day, Wing, the manager of the estab.
lishment, caused inquiries to be made,
which elected the fact that johnson had
pawned the machine to L. B. Cohn, the
Main street broker, for SIS, and that
after this transaction he had left town.
Eight days later Wing ascertained that
Johnson was stopping at the hotel at Ar.
cadia, and went there to see him. On
getting off the train Wing was met by
johnson. who asked him anxiously if he
was hunting for him, and on learning
turn to Los Angeles that evening and
oakkln tha oRa ~
ing upon his word, Wing re.
turned to town, but johnson failed
to keep his promise, and Wing caused
his arrest. At 80 O'Clock last evening
the defendant was again brought up for
examination upon charge somewhat
similar to the one above mentioned, but,
owing to the absence of two material
witnesses for the State, the case could
not be brought to a conclusion, and at
8 80 O'Clock court adjourned until this
morning. The complainant, w. Geiger,
testified that on September 9th johnson
came to his shop at No. 155 South Los
Angeles street and inquired about the
price of a bicycle which was on exhibi-
tion in the show window. On learning
that Gsiger would sellit for $75, young
Johnson began to criticize the machine,
and found fault with its general make
up. Finally, however, he asked Geiger
to allow him to ride 1t, and permission
having been granted, be mounted and
rode up the street. To Geiger's sur
prise, his supposed purchaser, fnstead OF
turning back at the end of block
or two, put on a squirt and
disappeared altogether. Later in the
evening Geiger interviewed johnson in
the County Jail and endeavoyed to find
out where his bicycle was, but the youth
had disposed of it for $35 to Messrs.
Wilson and DeGrutte on Spring street
He misled Geiger by telling him several
contradictory stories Of what had become
some time after Johnson's arrest that the
truth was learned.

THE BOYS GET FREE.
But what Did the Able Attorney
Get?

But What Did the Able Attorney
Get?
A queer case came up before Judge
Shaw yesterday afternoon. On Monday
two boys of about 16 or II years Of age
were lodged in the County Jail on a COM
mitment from Justice of the Peace in
Antelope valley. The boys had been
caught near Mojave, just on the border
line between Kern and Los Angeles
counties. They had two horses and
cart, and some stuff that had been taken
from a house in Lancaster. When
brought before the Justice the boys con-
fessed that they had gone into an open
house anu purloined the things. On this
the Justice sent them here for trial on
straight commitment.
I Yesterday R. A. Ling got out writ Of
habeas corpus for the boys, and had
hem before the court. The boys told a
very straight story, to all appearances.
They stated that they were John Mark
ham and Charles Bullard; that they had
lived at San Diego. where they had
worked until times got 30 dull there was
no more to do, when they bought the
horses and cart and set out for Bakers
field, Were they heard there was plenty
of VIZ < to do. They wanted to see the
cor TRY as they went along
<fhere was no complaint on which they
were arrested, and there was none made
out by the Justice or the Distric
Attorney, and on their promise to leave
the county at once Judge Shaw turned
them loose. Judge Ling was much de
Lighted at the success OF his case ant
reminded the boys Of the Judges charge
that they should leave the county. The
Iquestion is who got the cart and team

$4,000 or $4,000. 1t will not
be for sale if the rumor
is correct, which reports that Mr..
Dunlap will put up fine residence on it
at an early day. 1t is in the midst OF
notably fine houses. The residences of
Judge Brunson and Senator Rose are
only block away. The Larkin and
Conner residences are on the next block
north. Judge Ruddock is about to put
up q fine house across the street from
Senator Roses, and Superintendent
Noble, of the Ell Paso Division of the
Southern Pacific, is now. putting up a
beautiful house one block west on Bunker

ReaI-Estate improvements.

One of the leading real-estate search
ing firms in the city yesterday informed
a HERALB reporter that business in that
line is much better than it has been in
long time. He particularized by saying
that his firm did three times as much
searching in the first week in October
than in any week in September. He
also stated that there we're more sales
and less mortgages being recorded. That
is certainly sign of decided improve
ment in the real-estate business. This
gentleman thinks that as the winter ap-
proaches and eastern people come in,
the sales will steadily increase.

GAZETTE

The GAZETTE, chronologically,
is in the NINETIETH year of it's ex-
istence, and is not only the Oldest
paper in the State, but, with few
exceptions, in the country.
Notwithstanding the fitness of
its years, it has kept, and will con-
tinue to keep, abreast of the times
in all that pertains to a NEWS paper,
furnishing its readers daily with
perfect mirror Of passing events,
domestic and foreign.
Its facilities for obtaining news
as they increase are taken advan-
tage of and used for the benefit of
its readers, who are thus kept
thoroughly posted as to all that is
of interest politically, socially, f.
nancially or commercially.
Special attention is given to mat
tiers concerning the State and It's
welfare, while its local columns
contain all that is of the slightest
interest to Alexandrians.
Its regular correspondence from
Washington and Richmond are fea-
lures of peculiar interest, as attest
ed by the eagerness with which
they are read and copied by other
papers, while its editorial depart
ment, conducted with reference to
the best interests of the city, State
and country, will continue to ad-
vocate what is believed to be right,
just, honest and patriotic.
With view to the interest of
merchants, farmers and all inter-
ested, its commercial columns are
carefully edited and it's market re-
ports are acknowledged by all to
be faithful and accurate.
Through all this section of the
State, and in all parts of the coun-
try where Virginians have located,
there will the GAZETTE generally
be found, and thus as an advertis-
ing medium it has few equals out
side the large cities.
In the household, counting room
and workshop it is an ever-welcome
visitor, acceptable alike to old and
young, the grave and the gay.

at the foot and extends about forty miles up

country, and when you go up by boat you
can SEQ numerous cascades, and they tell me
most all have glena that surpass Watkins
in most respects Watkins Glen is of course
he chief attraction. The entrance ia right
here at our gate. 1t ia about three miles
through. aud when you get through it you
want to come back through it; this makes
six miles, and when Ieot back from my walk
1t was as q tiresome twenty. The place is toe

through Havana. | think there is more
water over there, and there ale one or two
cascades that / think are prettier lhsn any
Of the former, and 1t is more zig gag and

have dancing parties, every evening, and
often germans.
There have beer several Alexandrians
here since Friday. Some are here from
Norfolk, and Richmond had crowd o;
something like IS on Friday and Saturday.
Niagara disappointed me to some extent,
but the more saw of it the more | was
pleased, think. The best view Ia to be
had from the Canadian side at the edge OF
the horseshoe. There is no charge there,
a,it is the Victoria park, and all it cost was
25 cents to go over the upper suspension
bridge. I was offered a trip around by
carriage for Sc, but as wanted to see some
thing else and pay my board bill and get
home, thought I'd just as we'll foot it.
There is more highway robbery to the inch
