plosion.

plosion.
Shortly after noon yesterday the resi-
dence OF Eben. H. Orne, well-borer, on
Thirty-eighth street, between Figueroa
and Wesley avenue, was destroyed by
fire, which originated from defect in
the stove in the kitchen. This is Mr.
Orne's second disaster within few days,
he being one of the men badly hurt in
the tunnel explosion at Santa Paula.
He was so badly injured that he was
compelled to stay at Santa Paula, and
his wife had gone there to attend him,
leaving the children at home. There
was no insurance
An alarm was rung in from box IS at
7 :45 O'Clock last evening for fire at
the Old st. Charles hotel, on North
Main street, which was responded to in
remarkably quick time by the depart
ment. The services of the brigade were
not required, fortunately, the blaze being
caused by lamp explosion in the hall
way upon the second floor, which was
promptly extinguished by hand gren-
ade. No damage ensued beyond the
scorching of little paint, the loss of the
lamp and a small hole in the carpeting.

CHARGED WITH BURGLARY.
The Scrape in Which a Girl Became
Involved

Virginia Turner, alias Nettie Payton, a
colored girl, was arrested by Officer
Vignes yesterday afternoon upon the
charge OF burglary. An old colored
laundress, named Mrs. Minerva Slaughter,
had some clothes belonging to the defen-
dant at her residence, 612 WE'LL street,
but refused to give them up until her
bill was paid. AS the girl could not per-
suade the old womaR~to give up the
clothing, it is charged that she resolved
to obtain it by strategy, and returned to
the house and kept the woman engaged
in conversation, while another girl
named Myrtle climbed through win
dow and carried the bundle off. I'm
fortunately, however, the wrong bundle
was carried away, and the old lady soon
afterwards missed some Of her white
peoples clothes," and she at once in
formed the officer OF her loss, which re-
suited after an exciting chase of four
blocks in the capture Of the girls.

THE WALKER CASE.
The Jury is Unable to Come to An
Agreement.

uC jury Is OudUlC W SOMC " <Au
Agreement.
Justice Savage and a Jury were occu-
pied nearly the whole of yesterday in
the trial of the case against w. NJ.
Walker, the proprietor Of a hotel at Re-
dondo Beach, but formerly of Fullerton,
who was charged with having, on the
14th ultimo, threatened to expose Mrs.
f. G. Ryan, of Anaheim, by means of a
type-written letter. The proceedings
commenced at 10 o'clock in the morn
ing with the work of selecting the jury,
and this was performed in about an
hour. Deputy District Attorney Diehl
then read the complaint to the jury,
which contained copy OF the letter, as
published in the HERALD in it's issue of
:. April2d.
70 Detective A. B. Lawson was the first
witness called and he stated that soon
after Mrs. Ryan received the letter in
question, the case was put into his hands,
and, after a short investigation, he
found the young lady who wrote the let
ter on her typewriter. On April 1st, in
company with the young lady, he went
to Redondo where Walker was, and she
identified him as the man for whom she
had written the letter. Walker was placed
under arrest, and on the way to the city
he confessed that he mailed the epistle,
but did not think he had done anything
wrong. In fact, he thought he was
doing Mrs. Ryan favor.
Miss Ida Schenck, the young lady to
whom the letter was traced, testified
that Walker went to her office and that
she wrote the letter upon her type
writer at his dictation. She positively
identified the original letter as the one
she had written and stated that he had
sealed it in large envelope, which she
subsequently addressed, ,and took it away
with him. He explained the letter to
her by stating that Mrs. Ryan owed him
money for board and he took this
as the best means OF insurng
its payment. At this juncture
the court declared recess until 2
O'Clock, at which time Detective Lawson
was recalled. The postmark of the en-
velope having been partially destroyed,
he explained that this must have been
done while the document was in the
hands of J. f. Denning, an expert on
typewriter copy to whom he referred II
during his investigation. This was sub
sequently corroborated by Denning hio9i-
self, who swore to the postmark having
been intact when he first received TIVE
letter and envelope, by Louis Stone who
carried the letter from Denning's otIica

A telephone message was received

that Dubois, Shoup and Mcconnell
were elected and that it was verv
probable that Dubois would be given
the full term six years-and that
Shoup and Mcconnell would draw
for the four years term and the term
that will expire on the 4th of next
March. This ought to come as near
giving general satisfaction as any Sc
lections that could have been made,
at any rate in the South. Dubois is
the favorits by great odds, and Shoup
comes next. Now if Mcdonnell draws
the four years term the North will
have Senator, but il he draws the
two months term it will be almost
equivalent to nothing for the North.

HENRY MOORE KILLED
VAN WICK, Dec. 9. l89'

VAN WICK, Dec. 9, 1890.
ED. WoRLD:-We are sorry to in
form you of the sad accident result
ing in the death of Henry, youngest
son OF Presley Moore, of Alpha. He
was near the age of twenty-oRe.
1t occurred on Sunday, the 7th
inst, and in the following manner, as
near as can be judged by the signs
in the snow, no one having witnessed
it: Henry left the postoffice a. AL
pha at about 3 o'clock Sunday after
noon, and an hour later his team was
stopped at Mr.. Esstep's, four miles
from the Office, and poor Henry was
found under the overturned sleigh,
with one foot fast in the rave. His
neck was broken and his skull crush
ed in. Every rib on his left side was
broken and his collar bone broken in
two places. On following the tracks
in the snow it was found that the
team had started to run soon after be
lett the office, and had gone two or
three miles off the road, then turned
and started back across the valley to-
wards the road, and in crossing
gully the sleigh was upset. There
was blood all along the track from
there to Mr.. Esstep's, distance Of a
mile
He was buried on the 9th of Dec.
in beautiful spot near the home of
his parents The funeral was attend
ed by large number of sorrowing
friends who came many miles TO pay
the last tribute of respect to one
whom they had known and esteemed
so highly.
Henry was bright, sunuy-temper-
ed boy, beloved by all and will be
sadly missed by this community. $
