LOCAL MELANGE.
A Sensation on Los Angeles
Street Yesterday.
An Irate AuctiOner COwhides
A Rival.
A Reported Combination of the Water
Companies.
A Deal Which is Said to be Going On
The Foresters-Toy Sings Sentence.
Other Newsy Items.

A scene which created a sensation in
Los Angeles street, near Second, yester-
day afternoon will probably find its
sequel today in the police court. Whilst
John G. Bell, the well-known auctioneer,
was admiring a passing dray and won
dering how much he could knock it
down for if he had it on the block, he
was astonished to suddenly find himself
nearly knocked down by sudden blow.
On turning he discovered that E. W..
Noyes, another veteran knight of the
hammer, furious with rage, was his
assailant, and that he was receiving
blows, we'll laid on, from a cowhide.
Bell escaped from his assailant as quickly
as he could, and last night lodged a COM
plant and got out warrant for the
arrest of Noyes.
1t seems that Noyes was exasperated
at the report in the Express of sale on
Monday at which he officiated, and la
bored under the impression that Bell
had, for the purpose of injuring him given
to the reporter figures of the amounts at
which the articles were knocked down a
great deal below what they really fetched.
Bell denies that he had anything to do
with the report. But as the whole affair
will be ventilated in the court, we shall
await the examination to arrive at the
facts

WHAT DOES 1T MEAN
A Big Deal Reported in Water Stool
in this Citv

Big Deal Reported in Water Stock
in this City.
Yesterday a HERALD reporter met a
well-known business man on the street,
who said to the scribe "Why do you
not catch on to the big deal being
worked in the city water companies ?"
"All right" replied the newspaper
man; ''you seem to know something.
Educate u.s."
''What has j +. Crank gone east for"
he asked.
"You tell" said the reporter.
''All right, here goes, so far as 1 am
able to find out. But do not tell you
anything for sure. l think, however, 1
am right. ii 1 am, Mr.. Crank
has secured the Hazard water system of
Brooklyn Heights and adjacent parts of
the city. If l am right he has prac-
tically under his control the Citizens
Water Company, of which Mr.. Wicks is
the president. The hubbub on the hills
where that company serves with water
has made it imperative that the system
be extended and improved, and that
will cost lot of money. The company
recently asked an extension OF It's IRAN
chise from twenty-seven to fifty years.
The committee of the council refused to
recommend this action, and that
has somewhat increased the diff
ficulty surrounding this big project.
Mr.. Crank is east to promote. He is,
however, a mighty slick promoter, and
can get through big difficulties. He has,
if l am right, gone east to work a large
and difficult scheme. 1t is to float
bonds to put the Hazard and Wicks
water systems into perfect order to do
their work. But the most sensational
part is still to come. Ii | am correct in
my surmises, the old company, the City
Water Company, is really behind all
these projects, and at the proper time
will absorb these plants and become the
dictator in the supplying of water to the
city. There is the way my ears hear
things and the way my eyes see them
l have told you, think, all 1 know"

A Terror to PlagiarIsts.

know young woman in New York,
the daughter of well-known editor
whose marvellous memory is literally hei
fortune. She is an omniverous reader
No book escapes her, and once read, is
never forgotten. This extraordinary
girl is as familiar with the lit
erature of past ages as with
the two-penny novels of today, and
is employed by one of the leading
publishers for the sole purpose of read,
ing manuscript and pronouncing upon
it's originality. Not only borrowed plots,
but borrowed styles, borrowed phrases,
are instantly detected, and their orig
inal source is noted down. She occupies
a position which is unique in the his

off, and began giving him Hoods Sarsaparila in
order to get up his strength The medicine woke
up his appetite, and soon pieces of bone were
discharged from the sore. We continued with
Hoods sarsaparilla, as it seemed to be doing him
so much good, and the discharge from the sore
decreased, the swelling went down, the leg

Burglars Visit L. B. Booth.

Private residences in Newtown have
long enjoyed immunity from burglaries
and, in fact, none of importance have
occurred since stores and bank were en-
tered and a gang sentenced to State pris-
on. Early Thursday morning, however,
the house of T.. u. Booth was entered, ev-
identity by two persons, and a quantity
of silverware taken. The burglary was
discovered by the servant, who found
doors open and the table in the dining
room in confusion. No clue had been
left. The burglars gained admission
they forced up without breaking the
glass. They secured two dozen spoons,
solid and plated and number of forks,
from the table and obtained a silver cake
basket from an adjoining room, deyour.
| ing the cake it contained. The window
was evidently used as means OF exit, fol
a flower bed on the north showed deer
| tracks in both directions. One set was
made by No. 10 or IL boot; the other
smaller, might have been made by i
4 boy or smaller man. Mr. Booth at once
notified Sheriff Glover and Constable
Blackman who, on suspicion, arrested 1
couple of Jew peddlers who had beer
stopping at Theodore Sjastrom,s; but, al
their shoes did not exactly fit the i'm
pressions in the soft earth, they were al
lowed to go. It would seem that th,
crime must have been committed b.
some one familiar with the locality, TO
two pairs OF rubber boots, belonging u
4 j. II. Blackman and Jesse Taylor, wer
taken from the rear Of Mr. Blackman'
house, the same night.
