lawful act, if done in 9 proper manner,
and by one authorized to do it, is no
ground for action against him at the suit
Of another, although the result of itbe
loss to the latter,
Before the Jury can find for plaintiff
they must be satisfied that the act of the
defendant was wrong act, or wrong
fully or improperly done; and being
done, must also violate some right Of the
plaintiff. If it was q lawful act, done in
q lawful and proper manner, and with
due care and skill and under authority
Of law, they will find for the defendant.
If the Los Angeles river, as bounded
by the leyee on the west as now con-
structed, is sufficient to carry the ordi-
nary waters of the rainy season, with
out damage to aligning owners on the
river, and II the storm of December,
1889, was an unusual and extraordinary
fall of rain, and such storm as ordi-
nary prudence could not reasonably
have guarded against and anticipated,
the defendant is not liable. w 81
If the defendant or its predecessor
was the owner of the land Immediately
west ofthe levee as constructed, it had
q lawful right to protect it from over
flow, providing it did not obstruct the
flow in its natural channel or divert it
therefrom to the injury of the plaintiff.
The jury remained out from 2:30
o'clock until after 5, and upon being
brought into court announced that they
had not yet been able to agree upon a
verdict. They were then permitted to
retire and return sealed verdict, to be
opened at 10 O'Clock this morning.

A Statement from the Members Regard
ing the Verdict.
In regard to the verdict of the coro-
ner's jury on the Columbus day fatality,
the committee who had charge of secur-
ing the freworks have addressed the
following letter to the HERALD:
EDIToRs Herald: The undersigned
committee, in charge of the late celebra-
ton. in honor of Columbus, while we
most sincerely lament the sad accident
which occurred on the night of the 21st
inst, and have and do now tender our
heartfelt sympathies to the several fam
lilies Of the sufferers thereby; yet, we
most earnestly deprecate the attempt,
direct or indirect, of the coroner's jury
or Of Mr.. w. H. Wilson to shift upon us
the responsibility therefor. We have a
specific contract in writing with the
last-named gentleman, whereby he was
to furnish fireworks and saluting charges,
erect, fire off and explode the same, re-
move all debris and fence around the
place where they were to be discharged
and exploded, all to be under his sole
personal supervision, management and
control, without any direction from us,
for q specified amount to be paid to him
on his demand. Respectfully,
SECONDo QUART,

WILLIAM SMITH CONVICTED.
His String Of Aged Fish Did Not Fool
Mr, Hogan.

His String Of Aged Fish Did Not Fool
Mr, Hogan.
A short trial was sufficient to start
William Smith on his way to San Quen-
tin, yesterday, in Judge sSmith's court.
The defendant and man named John
Meyers were found September 7th last
at John F. Hogan's house at Santa
Monica. The latter had been out riding
with his daughter, and while passing by
the house saw the two men there, one
off, them with q string OF feh. After
driving on q little way Mr.. Hogan
thought it looked suspicious and turned
back. The men were there when he
drove in, and Smith stuck the fsh up,
asking Mr.. Hogan If he wanted to buy
any. Just then Meyers ran out the
back way, and Smith. dropping his fsh,
followed suit. They were captured and
put in Jail, it being found that the house
had been thoroughly ransacked, al
though the burglars we're surprised be-
fore getting away with any spoils. They
effected an entrance through the back
door. The testimony was very conclu-
sive, and the jury returned verdict of
guilty, in few minutes, of burglary in
the, second degree. it having happened
in the daytime. Meyers claimed sep
arate trial, and his case was continued
for trial to November 10th. Smith will
be sentenced Monday.

A COMPTON JUSTICE
And His Queer Complaint Against Jual
Canada.

And His Queer Complaint Against Juan
Canada.
Yesterday man named Juan Canada
was before Judge Smith on habeas
corpus proceedings brought to set him
at liberty from the county Jail. He was
convicted by Justice VIM. A. Gaines of
Compton for shooting off pistol on the
straets of that town while drunk, and
sentenced to 80 days in jail and 500 fine.
The complaint charges him with "ex-
hibiting and shooting off deadly
weapon on the streets of Compton"
There was no doubt as to the fscts in
the case. The man did not try to shoot
at any body, but was simply having q
high old time. His counsel claims that
Compton not being an incorporated
town the complaint does not charge a
public offense, to shoot off q pistol
without intent to injure any one not be-
ing statutory offense. Some testimony
was taken and the case continued until
this morning to enable the justice to get
the original complaint.
