He Fought and lsled.

When he was arraiRned i'm the police
court last night Eric Anderson looked AS
il he had passed through n thrcshing
machine. A great nOrtion OF his face,
particularly i'm the vicinity of his eyes,
was the traditional color OF the ace of
spades, and indeed Mr.. Anderson might
easily have passed for n Butte prize
fighter. He had got into difficult es with
the bartender of the West Side Beer Hall.
1t appeared from his story that he had
first gone into n disreputablc resort, where
he danced with a French girl, who robbed
him of S23. He then went into the saloon,
and i'm order to get even with the girl Of
fered to- whip any gentleman present. He
was presently cast into outer darkness,
where he wept copiously and CRASHED
what teeth he had left. He was arrested
by Officers Hale and White for drunken
ness and lighting, and upon his convic-
ton Judge Fitzgerald fined him 50 and
costs.

CABLE ROAD.

Coroner Meredith was summoned to
Lancaster yesterday afternoon by tele.
gram to the effect that an unknown man
had committed suicide there earlier in
the day. No details of the affair could
be ascertained at the time, but it was
subsequently stated that DIR. Willard
called at the Office of the Antelope Valley
Times yesterday morning and disputed
the amount of bill for advertisements
inserted in it's columns on his account
After a few words had been exchanged
between the doctor and the editor of the
paper, s. A. Drummond, the former
drew pistol and deliberately pointing
it at the head Of the newspaper man,
pulled the trigger. Fortunately the
cartridge failed to explode, although the
crack of the cap was distinctly heard.
Almost Immediately afterwards the
doctor pointed the muzzle of his weapon
at his own head and shot himself. He
fell to the ground and in a few minutes
expired, almost before medical assistance
could be summoned. The report of the
pistol attracted a large crowd to the
scene, and DrumMond received the
hearty congratulations of his friends upon
his lucky escape.

1t has been whispered around for the
past few days that arrangements are on
foot for the bringing to life of the Second
street cable road. According to reports
on the street yesterday there is but one
thing which prevents it from being
started immediately, and that is the
agreement of the property owners west
of the hills to pay to the parties who will
take the road $4,000. 1t is reported that
J. F. Crank is willing to take the road
and run it, providing that amount is paid
him. The proposition also goes further,
for it is said that Mr.. Crank will
agree to put in double track road
as soon as the street is. regarded.
There are proceedings on foot for the re-
grading of the street, and Mr.. Crank, it
Is said, is not willing to construct the
double.track road until the work of re-
grading has been finished, and he is not
willing to invest all of the money neces
sary to repair the present road and to
build the new road without some as
sistance from those whose property will
be benefited by the running of the road.
1t is said that the property owners are
taking stock among themselves to zee
whether they cannot raise the $40, 900 re-
quired. Some of them feel certain of
success.
