So sheriff and prisoner started for
Frankfort, each taking separate
route. On the way through the hills
Lyles killed several deer, and arrived
at Frankfort before the sheriff got
there.
He reported at once to Gov. Clark.
When the latter entered the waiting
room Lyles arose and extended his
hand.

the laconiU reply.

1t was true. Milo Menard. full of

chosen to furnish as to the where
abouts of his not inconsiderable saw

blacksmith.
And now the rush of sight-seers, cor

came greater than ever. And they
have been ransacking the old place
ever since Mr.. and Mrs Bill Jones re-
moved into more modern and commod-

lengths of breakwater is in favor of San
Pedro on account of the fact that at
Santa Monica the breakwater must be
located in depths of seven to nine faith
oms. At San Pedro the westerly arm
will be built of rubble in either case,
and starting from the shore is extended
only to the six-fathom curve, the east
erly arm alone being entirely in the
greater depth of nine and one-half faith
oms.
''With the commencement of the con-
struction of the westerly arm at San
Pedro, come protection from westerly
swells will Immediately be gained.
"San Pedro has further advantage in
being supplemented by an interior har-
Dor which is expected, when completed,
to afford at mean low tide a depth of Is
feet at the entrance. This can accom-
modate shipping of 20 feet draft, and
will relieve the anchorage ground to
that extent. The inner harbor will also
be place of security for the plant dur
ing the period of construction
"The material for the breakwater at
San Pedro must be brought from Cata-
lima. At Santa Monica it may be possi-
BILE to obtain sufficient rock from the
hills to the northward, but there is at
present no satisfactory evidence that
such will be the case.
'In view OF the fact that San Pedro bay
in it's natural condition affords better
protection both from prevailing winds
and from dangerous storms than Santa
Monica bay; that protection can be se-
cured at less cost for equal development
of breakwater at the former than at the
latter that a larger area of protected
anchorage from the prevailing westerly
swells can be secured, the severe storms
from the southeast being infrequent, and
that there is already an interior harbor
that will be valuable addition to the
outer harbor, the board considers San
Pedro bay as the better location for the
deep-water harbor provided for by the
act"
The board which made this report
consisted of Col. q. H. Mendell, Lieut.
Col. q. L. Gillespie and Lieut.. w. HI. HI.

A BIG HAUL.

Mrs. |. A. Weld is Robbed of Over
$1,000 in Diamonds and Jewelry.
That the town is full of bold thieves
there is no dispute. Some petty thiev-
cry is reported almost daily to the po-
lice. The largest haul made by this
gentry in this city occurred between
Friday afternoon and Saturday evening,
and Mrs. Ivar A. Weld is the victim.
The lady in question was apparently
rather reckless in leaving her diamonds
and iewelry exposed, making it an easy
matter for the expert chevaliers dim
dustrie fraternity to purloin them. Mrs.
Weld had made it habit to deposit her
valuables in the top Of her trunk, and
not only left the trunk unlocked but the
lid was usually raised. On Friday
her diamonds and other jewelry
were in the accustomed place in her
apartments in the Weld block, at the
junction of Spring, Eighth and Main
streets. Early Saturday evening her
husband noticed that the contents of
the trunk were disturbed, and upon in
vestigation ascertained that his wiie's
diamond earrings and breastpin and a
pair of opera glasses were missing, the
articles that were gone being estimated
at the value of at least $1,000. 1t is very
apparent that the thief or thieves were
not professionals, as only part of the
diamonds and jewelry were taken. A
$500 pair of diamond bracelets were in
the same case with the missing arti-
cles, but they were not molested,
various other articles of jewelry were
left undisturbed.
The parties suspected OF the robbery
are two Cinnamon. The matter has
been placed in the hands OF private
detective agency and they are now work
ing on the case. 1t is almost certain
that the deed was committed by some
one familiar with the premises. The
suite of rooms where the jewels were
stolen were temporarily abandoned by
Mr.. and Mrs. Weld on account OF case
of diphtheria in the adjoining. rooms,
and they were occupying apartments
other than their regular quarters. The
loss is heavy one, and Mrs. Weld feels
| the situation keenly.
