 He was riding with Charles Thatcher. the Brook street stove dealer, and while ascending the steep hill near the lower end of Hop brook something gave way all at once just like the historic one hoss shay, and Jimmy,who was driving. was pulled over the dashboard and entangled in the horses heels. The wagon and Mir Thatcher took an opposite direction, bringing up in the gutter at the foot of the hill, without, however, doing any serious damage

 This morning as the train due in this city at 11:l7 was leaving Beacon Falls, the station agent noticed d man riding on the rear truck of the New Haven & Derby car. The train was stopped and the fellow ordered to vacate. It IS not known how far he rode, but it is evident that he did not realize what perilous berth he occupied. as slight move mipht be the cause of his death. The conductors and brakemen on freight trains have their hands full keeping the tramps off the cars at this season of the year. but it is seldom that one of them tries to work passenger train.

AROUND THE CITY.
A Woman and Her Babies
Deserted.
NEW HARBOR AND RAILROAD.
What Culver Says About the Charge
Made Against Him Other
Events.

A story of desertion and slow starvation
has come to light recently, and it has for
the last few days been attracting the at
tention of some OF the charitable ladies
OF the city. 1t appears that Mrs. Vogel
came here about two years ago with her
husband, from st. Louis. She brought
here quite snug little amount OF money,
some 81, 900 or So 900, and this was used
in furnishing little house on Mission
road and in starting her husband in bust.
ness. For some reason or other her hus-
bands business ventures did not prove
successes and her money gradually melted
away, until she had only $500 left. This
was invested in q saloon last fall, and.
like all the rest of the Vogel's attempts,
this was failure, and he soon found
himself without funds and without oc-
cupation. About three months ago Mrs.
Vogel found herself deserted with baby
only month old, and another child
somewhere in the neighborhood of five
years of age. She could not leave her
children to go out to work, and the
consequence was that to furnish food for
the three mouths, she had to sell her
clothing and furniture. Bit by bit, she
carried it out of the house, returning
with the cheapest kind Of provisions.
She pawned her jewelry, and as is al
ways the case, ehe was able to obtain
very little upon it. For a watch chain
which had originally cost about $50, the
pawn broker loaned her 81, and on this
the interest remained unpaid. Day by
day the children grew thinner, and in
denying herself food to give them,
she wasted away until che is
scarcely the shadow of what she was
when she arrived here two years ago.
She had nothing left except a sewing
machine, which cost about $50 when
new. This she endeavored TO sell for
SIS, but the highest offer she could obtain
was $40, and, when her condition be-
came known, she had not disposed of it.
She did not talk of her poverty or suffer-
ing to her neighbors, and it was only
when her baby became seriously sick
that she became frightened, and appealed
for aid. Her case was reported to some
of the charitable ladies aud to Humane
Officer Wright, and, after investigation,
they found that her story was true, and
are now making arrangements to send
her back to her former home at St. Louis,
where she has relatives who are we'll off .
She has heard no word from her husband
since he deserted her.

A GREAT SCHEME.
A New HarbOr and Railroad TO be
Exploited.

A New HarbOr and Railroad TO be
Exploited.
Who in Los Angeles does not know J.
X. Tuffree, of Placentia? The gay nd
debonairl Colonel, who has whilom
figured in the role of plain farmer, has,
in these piping times of quiet, bloomed
out into veri!able boomer. The place
that knew him on the mesa at the head
of Placentia avenue, above Anaheim, for
time, at least, knows him no more.
He is denizen of the Bay City,
and while the hired man reaps the
rich barley harvests from the farm,
the Colonel is busy floating the stock
of "Carolina harbor," and Of the Carolina
and Heaven -Knows-Where railroad. Ca
rolina harbor is none ether than Portu-
guese Bend, which lies between Point
Firman and Redondo. 1t is basin in
the Palos Verdes hills, and Tufiree has
had Prof. Davidson as we'll as private
parties make a careful photographic sur
vey Of the place. A chart of these sound
ings, showing all the depths and shadows
of the basin, he carries with him to show
how easy it will be to make
a safe harbor for ships at this
point. Colonel Tuffree states that he
has sold nearly 81 900 900 worth of the
stock, that Mr.. f, j. Baldwin is one of
the heaviest buyers of his stock, that
Mr.. Chas. Francis Adams is behind his
scheme, and that it will surely be q great
go. At any rate the great promoter, who
is now in Los Angeles, will leave here
for San Francisco in a few days. A meet
6 k1n h hol do h. L,
organization effected and officers chosen.
The next step will be to incorporate in
this county railroad company to build
road with one terminus at the new
harbor, and aiming to reach with the
other that indefinite spot designated in
the heading to the sketch. The Colonel
states that "Lucky" Baldwin will build
the first five miles of the road towards
Los Angeles. 1t is not yet decided what
course the road will take from here.
Yesterday Tuffree held a consultation
with Mr.. Richard Gird, of the Chino,
with view to interesting the Tom bstor e
millionaire in his scheme. Mr.. Gird has
narrow gauge road from Pomona to the
center of the Chino ranch. A similar
road is partly graded from Anaheim to the
center of the Olinda ranch. 1t would not be
a great undertaking to cross the hills
near the Santa Ana canon and join these
two bits of road. From Anaheim to the
new harbor is country as level as the
floor and the richest in the world. An
other projected route is across the Laguna
ranch, just east of the city to Whittier,
via the Ranchito, the Old Mission, the
Filepe Lugo, the San Jose country and
the foothills above San Bernardino out
the Csjon Pass to the desert, and thence
to Salt Lake, and God-knows-where.
That is the scheme that has effloresced
from the busy brain of the Placentia
granger. He has no end of kilograms
and letters from great railroad magnates,
and he is sure of the final and quick
completion at his undertaking.

Eight Hour League.

The regular meeting of the League was
held last night at its headquarters, No.
West Second street. Reports of enrolling
officers were very satisfactory, and nu.
merous additions were made to the list
OF members.
Delegates from the Cigarmaker U Union
We're present, and announced that their
Union had decided to join the League in
a body. On motion, the Secretary was
instructed to request the different organi-
cations not already represented on the
Enrolling Board to nominate one or more
from their respective bodies for that po-
sition.
1t was reported to the League that Mr..
Ward, brick mason and contractor at
Santa Monica, had anticipated the date
set by the League, and had put all of his
men to work on the eight hour system.
Some encouraging reports of the pro-
gress of the work in the East were read
to the League, after which it adjourned
in the usual manner.

out the man. He had learned
that warrant was out against him and
was in hiding. AS be is man of some
property and has wife and children, he
will probably surrender himself before
long.
Culver has made statement which
does net throw much light on the affair.
He says that the first he knew of the at
tempt being made at abortion was that
his wife told him that DR.. Downs was
guilty of the crime. About the same
time Culver learned, so he Gays, that his
wife was unfaithful to himN and that
the physician aforesaid was her lover.
He was very much hOrrifed when she
confessed to her guilt, and Immediately
demanded separation. They have
been living apart some time, and he
Gays that he was taken entirely by sur
prise by the charge of attempting the
abortion.
This is merely one side of the story. 1t
is not improbable that in the examination
a very different version of the affair may
come out.
