An Incident in Life That Was Strong
in Death.
"Old partner, keep my promise"

An 4nCid 9nt IN Life That Was Strong
in Death.
"Old partner, keep my promise"
This was said by Uncle John Harrison,
the well~known and respected attache of
the city exchange, a5 the grave of his old
comrade, James Collins, who was buried
last week.
Every mourner at the grave wondered at
thisstrAnge remark, aud at the solemn, vet
determined manner of the man who stepped
to the grave and cast the last spade of
earth upon the mound. Although the scene
was affecting. aud the principal actor, an
elderly man whose demonstrations Of affec-
tion for the deceased were very vivid, those
present wondered why these strange pro-
ceedings took place.
1t was after the solemn ceremony that
Mr.. Harrison was questioned by personal
friend.
"Twenty-four years ago, said he, James
Collins and myself made solemn promise
that If either of us. should die. the survivor
would throw the last dirt upon his grave.
We have been comrades for thirty wears.
and l loved him like a brother. The dear
old partner has gone. and have kept my
promise. That's all !"

THE BONES OF A WAIF.
They Still Lie Unburied on Terminal
Island.

They Still Lie Unburicd on Terminal
Island.
A complaint was brought to the coro-
ner's office yesterday by the Terminal
Railroad company that the remains of
an infant discovered on Terminal island
short time ago, are still on the island
unburied, and asking the coroner to
take some action, or the supervisors. to
have them inferred. They remain in a
box and while scarcely anything but
the skeleton is still in existence the
Terminal people think it should not be
allowed to be above ground.
The remains were discovered and an
inquest was held several weeks ago,
when no evidence of the identity of the
infant was discovered. The coroner's
jury returned verdict that the infant
was unknown.
In order to secure the burial of the re-
mains the board of supervisors will be
obliged to give an order to that effect.

SOME OLD LAND MARKS.

Pieces of Tree Bark Put in Evidence in
the HOf Case.
Several sections of the bark of tree
were put in evidence in the suit of the
Los Angeles Farming and Milling COM
pany va Hoff ct al yesterday.
They were produced by surveyor g. A.
Enriqu in proof of a survey which he
had made many years ago of the San
Fernando ranch. The bark had been
cut at that time and bore the marks of
having been one of the corner monu-
ments of the survey. The testimony of
Enriqu went to show that all surveys
have placed the boundaries of the ranch
so as to embrace the lands claimed by
the small army of defendants. The trial
will continue for the balance of the
week.

A VERY FINE DAY.

That's what the Old Man Said and 1t
Game Near Being Very Cold Ono.
An old chap, driving a venerable
horse, attached to light wagon, full of
sole leather, was nearing the northeast
corner of Spring and Second streets yes
terday afternoon, Just in front of the
Bryson-Bonebrake block he espied two
acquaintances, talking together on the
curb. He hailed them and after they
had said halo, the old man, keeping his
eyes on them, although driving on,
called out couple of times that it was
very fine day. As he was then almost
upon an electric Car bound for Westlake
park, whose motorneer was not very at
tentive either, the old gentleman's as
sertion that it was fine day came very
near being negatived. Warned by the
shouts of some people on the sidewalk,
he gave whoop and his whip came
down on the old plug with such force
that he cleared the car, and after all it
was fine day. 5e

TRADED FOR MULES.

How the Edwards Horses Were Disposed
OF by Wadham and Watson.
Yesterday Sheriff Gibson received
word that George Wadham and A. Wat
son, who drove away from Los Angeles
with team of gray horses belonging to
W. Edwards, had turned up at the town
Of Victor, about forty-five miles east OF
San Bernardino. At that place it is al
legged that they traded the horses with
NJ. Vader for span of mules. Vader,
who was in the city yesterday, said that
they wore constables' badges, and ex-
hibited pistol which they said had
been given to them by Sheriff Gibson,
which statement was false. They
claimed that they were in search of a
couple of horse-thieves who had cap
tured some horses at Whittier.

Trial.

All Yung Trial-Notes.
TOday's Calendar.

There was a large attendance O.
spectators in Judge McKinley's depart
ment OF the superior court yesterday, al
the trial of A. E. Mcdonald, who was
charged with breaking into the sacristy
OF st. Vibiana's cathedral on November
18th and stealing number of sacred
vessels made of precious metals and
particularly valued as antique specimens
OF the kind, having come into the pos
session of the church through the early
Spanish fathers.
The prosecution was conducted by
District Attorney McLachlan, assisted
by William A. Ryan. and the defendant
was represented by James Callen, a San
Diego attorney. The following jurors
were accepted after nearly exhausting
the panel: w. L. Ballard, w. S.
Brigham, 0. F. Johnson, d. f. Merri-
am, R. E. Wirsching, j. T. Wilder,
James Bell, G. A. Schrode, j. M.
Mitchell, N. s. G. Todd, William F.
Hall, 1. B. Dolley.
Father Mcdonald of the cathedral
was the first witness. He testified that
about 6 O'Clock of the morning of No
vember 9th he was aroused and told by
one of the attendants that the cathedral
had been robbed. On going down into
the sacristy he found the safe opened
with powder grains lying on the top
and the air impregnated with smoke
from powder and clothing that had been
ignited. On going to the altar he found
that several valuable silver-gilt vessels
used in the services of the church had
been taken. The door leading from the
sacristy into the hall was open, also one
of the windows.
A number of fragments of the silver
vessels which had been traced to Nc.
Donald in San Diego, were then shown
to the father, and identified by him.
Rev. Father Adam, Joseph Mannis the
sexton, and others, gave similar testi-
mony, all going to fasten the chain of
guilt to Mcdonald.

Be Thorough.

"I never do a thing thoroughly"
Mary saidIto me the other day. She
had just been competing for a prize
in composition. "I only read my
composition once after I wrote it,
and I never practiced it in the
chapel at ALL"
She was naturally far more gifted
than Alice, who was her principal
competitor. Alice wrote and re-
wrote her article, and practiced it
again and again.
The day came. Alice read her
composition in a clear, distinct
voice, without hesitation or lack of
expression. 1t was condensed and
well written. Mary's could not be
heard beyond the fifth row of seats,
and was long and uninteresting.
