"ALLIE" MARTIN returned from
Milwaukee hospital last week to his
home near this city. About six
inches Of the deceased bone was
removed from his leg and an ami
mal's bone inserted in its place, the
amalgamation being perfect, and
the surgeon assuring him that the
leg would be as good as ever in a
short time. "Allie" had a narrow
escape from death, as the hospital
surgeons told him that had he re-
mained at home another week with
out proper treatment, blood poison
ing would have killed him--Dar.

also in full accord with the opposi.
ton press as 10 inconsistency. In
support of our assertion read this
from the last Journal issued.
August Mueller's local advertise.
ments in the Journal of suits to
order for SIS, and trowsers to order
for SO, have been mentioned by a
number of our exchanges. This is
a home industry that has been built
up by conscientious work aud reas-
onable prices, and we are glad to
record the fact that Mr.. Mueller has
prospered beyond his expectations.
We believe his business for 1901
will be double that of 1890, and his
excellent work and low prices merit
the increase.
EDIToRs TRIBUNE;-It will not be
long now until spring election will
be upon us, and as usual there seems
to be but little general interest in
the matter. As yet we have not
heard a candidate mentioned for
any city Office on the republican
ticket; but several democrats arc
named as willing, if not anxious,
for the bits of honor and profit. 1t
is hoped that republicans, old and
young, will fall into line ON the 10th
inst. and nominate 4 strong ticket.
| t this Is done we are sure of seeur-
ing frst-class officials. The young
voters of the city should take II
more active part 10 the political af-
fairs of their day. 1t will not 6e
long before the old heads will be
taken from us when young men
must take their places, and it is bet
ter to start III now and "get the
hang of the barn" than to wait
until we are called upon to run our
great Nation.

THE WARDS WIN.
A VERDICT FOR PLAINTIFFS IN
THE LAND CASE.
The Jury Soon Arrives at Decision-The
Comptons Had No Right to Deed the
Land-A Statement of the Case.

P. B. Ward and his wife, Cornelia M.
Ward, yesterday secured verdict for
$4,000 against G. G. and w. S. Compton.
The suit was to recover the amount OF
the verdict from the defendants, who
plaintiffs alleged secured property from
them by false representations.
The evidence showed that the plain
tiffs went blindly into real estate deal,
and did not get what they expected.
Mrs. Ward was the owner of house
and lot in this city, which she valued at
$4,000. The Comptons represented
themselves as owners of a tract of land
sixty-six acres in extent, located in
Orange county, which they said was
fertile land, upon which oranges, lemons
and all varieties df fruits could be
grown.
They told the Wards that the land
was worth $3.50 per acre, and was mort
gagged to some extent.
Without going down to see the land
they executed deed to the Comptons
receiving in exchange their conveyance
of the sixty-slx acres. After the trans
fer was made the Wards learned that
they had been duped. The property
was not of the nature described by the
Comptons, and the advantages OF the
location which were set forth to them
in such glowing terms existed only in
the minds OF the men who drew them
into the trade.
The land forms portion OF one bank
of the Santa Ana river and when that
stream is swollen by the winter storms
it runs over q portion of the land which
is thereby converted into wash and
the fertile soil" is moth
ing but stones and sand.
When these facts became known
and the Wards were convinced that they
had been duped they demanded that the
deed of the house be returned to them
and rendered the Comptons their con-
veyance of the sand lots.
Upon the refusal of the latter to re-
convey to them their property he Wards
brought suit, and in their complaint al
legged that the title of the land was not
vested in the Comptons and that all
their representations as to ownership
of the property end the nature OF the
land were false and made for the pur-
pose OF defrauding them.
The case was submitted to the jury
on special issues Thursday afternoon,
and late in the evening verdict was
found tor the plaintiff and handed to the
court yesterday morning.

The Mexicans Who Assaulted the
Evans BOYS Caught.

The MexlcanS Who Assaulted the
Evans Boys Caught.
Early yesterday morning, Fred and
Frank Evans, the young men who were
held up by some Mexicans with shot
gun and drevolvers, turned up at the police
station, where their brothers, Osmond
and Harley. were anxiously waiting to
learn whether they had escaped from
the highwaymen who held them up and
took possession of their buggy.
The men had a very narrow escape.
as the Mexicans were to all appearances
drunk, and handled their weapons in a
threatening manner. Osmond brought
the news to the city. and in company
with his brother Harley, went to the
sheriff and police. Sheriff Gibson i'm
mediately started out to the place indi-
Gated, and after short search found
the buggy and the men, who were none
other than Alfredo Arguello, who is very
we'll known here, and Charles Norton.
Both were taken into custody, and ves-
terday morning complaints were filed
in the township court charging Arguelo
with assault with shotgun and Norton
with an assault with a knife. Both
gave bonds for their appearance for trial.

building, commenced to pummel him in
true pugilIstic style. The young man
endeavored to persuade her to desist, but
she paid no attention to him, and he
finally gave her i shove, which caused
her to fall upon the sidewalk.
The Captain came up at this juncture
and found that the girl was considerably

and threatened to arrest her if She did
not go home, but she refused to do SO,
and exclaimed, 'rll cut your face all to
pieces If you touch me-" She held
small knife in her hand, and after the
Captain had caught her arms she at
