A M1xED-uP ROW.

Mysterious Shooting in Sonora-town
Adobe-Two Stories.
A telephone message was received at
the police station last night, requesting
that an officer be sent to quell distur-
bance at Alpine and CASTELAR, streets.
The sender Of the message said there
was big row in progress and number
of shots had been fired.
Mounted Officer Farmer was detailed
to investigate, and went to the place in
hot haste. A private watchman, who
sent word to the station, told the officer
that the neighborhood had been thrown
into great excitement by the discharge
of firearms in a house occupied by
a Mexican family, which report
says, has been in a state of disruption
for some time over the disposition of
property left by relative who died
some time ago. When the shots were
fred the women living in the house
rushed into the street apparently in
great terror.
The officer went to the house indicated
and was told that the women had a short
time previous discovered man prowl-
ing about the rear of the premises and
ordered him off, when he raised shot
gun and fired. and then made off. No
trace of the man could be found, and
the neighbors insist that their story of
family row is the true side of the
affair.

m. oueersst Of D..r stor,...

George Bell, keeper Of Picnic Island,
in the lower harbor, has two little girls,
to whom pet deer belonging to the zoo
of R. S. Warner & Co., on the island, is
very much attached. The little fawn
follows one child wherever it goes. Yes
terday the children stole away from
home to place on the wharf, when the
youngest one accidentally fell overheard.
The deer at once jumped in after the
child, which soon sank out of sight.
The deer then swan to the beach and
ran at lightning speed to the keepers
house, where the mother of the child
was. It reared up on his hind feet, blew
and snorted and cut queer antics SO as
to attract Mrs. Bells attention. It then
started down the beach in an excited
run and jumped into the water again.
Mrs. Bell missed her children, and, drop
ping everything, she followed the saga
cious animal, which she saw plunge from
the wharf into the bay.
One leg Of her little girl was sticking
out of the water, and when rescued she
was unconscious. By rolling and rub
bing the child was resuscitated. Captain
Bob Warner is SO proud of his fawn that
he has ordered it handsome collar and
silver bell. He says a Thousand dollars
could not buy it.-Tampa Fla.) Cor. At

A Dead Pauper and a Dead Dog.

A Dead Pauper and q Dead Dog.
Judging from some disclosures which
were made at a meeting of the Warning
ton guardians last week, dead pauper
in that union is regarded in very much
the same light as dead dog. Recently
a man who had been receiving parochial
relief was found dead at Earlestown, and
the body was taken in barrow to sew
eral public houses, ''but no one would
receive it."
Ultimately temporary resting place
was secured for the corpse in stable,
and two or three days later it was found
that traits had got to the body" Some
body, it is clear, deserves ce1sure, and
very severe censure, too, for this dis
graceful business; but nothing came Of
the discussion at the guardians meeting,
and as the deceased was only pauper
suppose no more will be heard of the
atter.-London Truth.

IN SOCIETY.

Saturday night the regular weekly
ball at the Arcadia took place. The
superb ballroom was crowded to its Ut
most with merry party OF society's
bellies and beaux, who danced to the
charming harmonies of the Arend or
chestra. 1t was a notable event here
on account of the many different local
tiles represented. proving that the city
by the sea and her matchless hotel have
established a reputation outside of the
confines of Southern California. The
supper, as usual, was one of the Ar
cadia's famous ones, which was made
palatable by a copious supply OF the
nectar of the gods. During the tennis
tournament a tennis ball will probably
be given in honor of the association,
and next Saturday evening another
ball will be given to the friends and
patrons of the hotel.
