LOS ANGELES THEATER.
ITS PURCHASE BY MIR. HI. w. PERRY
CONTAMINATED.
A Handsome and Valuable Property
Changed Hands Yesterday-A Good
Bargain = The House to Be
Complete in All Details.

After protracted negotiations between
the parties in interest, deal has at last
been effected whereby the Los Angeles
thester passes from the possession oI
Mrs. Juana A. Neal to that of Mr.. W,
H. Perry. @e
Rumors relative to this transfer have
been published, but it was not until yes
terday that the trade was consum-
mated in San Francisco, where the con-
tracing parties now are. The consider
alton passing is understood to have been
in the neighborhood of $4,000, which
is low for property so handsome and SO
eligibly located. Mrs. Neal is one of
those who invested largely in Los An
geles real estate during the boom, whose
property is worth. more today than it
was at that period.
Mr.. Perry has, in conversation with a
HERALD reporter, stated that, in gem
eral way, his intention was to make the
theater the most attractive on the coast.
and some communications have been
had in the matter with the noted theat-
rical architect, Mr.. Woods.
While nothing official has been stated
in the matter, it is said by those who
ought to know, that Manager Wyatt will
remain in his position, with greatly in
creased facilities for conducting the
place as the home of the very best at
fractions which come to the coast. Fur
ther details in regard to the matter will
be made known at an early date.

HIS BODY TORN TO PIECES
A GRUEsoME ACCIDENT AT THE
WHITTIER STATE SCHOOL.
Edward La PEARLS Sad Fate-Caught In
Machinery His Limbs Are Torn
From His Body-The Death of
Everett G.. Cox.

Coroner Weldon returned from Whit
tier last evening, where he held an in
quest upon the mangled remains of the
poor boy who met with such tragic
fate there the evening before. The
facts, as developed at the inquest, make
gruesome story.
The boys name was Edward La
Pearl. He was sent from Oakland, and
he was one of the brightest boys in the
institution, having peculiar penchant
for machinery. although only 16 years
old. So quickly did he learn the duties
of the motor f0om in the power house
that he had charge, as foreman, of one
squad of the boys who worked in the
room.
As developed at the inquest, La Pearl
was in the room with several other boys
of his squad. His watch had Just ex-
pired, and the boys had been playing
with toad, sending it around wheel
to see it become dizzy and try to Jump
in sixteen directions atl once. Several
of the boys bad turned away and were
leaving the room when the accident
happened.
The boy took hold of belt which was
hanging down, and holding it in his
hand pressed it against revolving
shaft. Mr.. Virgins, the manager of the
machinery department of the reform
school. had repeatedly told the boys not
to skylark about the machinery, and
when their work was done to let It
alone, as boy had his finger hurt some
time ago in that way. Young La Pearl,
however, was not needing the admoni-
ton. By applying the loose belt to the
shaft it polished it, and the boys have
great pride in n-making everything about
the machine shine.
In some manner his hand got doubled
up In the belt and the shaft, and quick
as flash he was caught up and slapped
around the shalt. He was whirled
around, both arms were torn from his
body, as was his right leg, and he was
otherwise mutilated by the swiftly re-
volying dynamo and its betting. The
terrible accident happened in two or
three seconds, and the boy had been
cast out at the other side, twenty feet,
before any one could do more than look
on with paling cheeks and terrified
minds.
The accident caused intense excite
ment in the institution, and it was some
time before the remains were carried
tenderly to the chapel. The coroner
was notified, and drove out early yester-
day morning. Three witnesses, two of
whom saw the accident, were examined,
and Mr.. Virgins, and the jury returned
verdict that the boy was accidentally
caught in the machinery of the power
house at the Whittier Reform school,
and that no blame attached to anyone.
La Pearl was blurred in the afternoon
and the funeral was attended by mill
taryl escort OF Eve companies OF cadets
from the school.
irs5e ANOTHER INQUEST
Later in the day the coroner received
call from Los Nietop, to, hold an in
quest on the remains of Everett G.. Cox,
who died quite suddenly there yester-
day morning. He had been ailing for
some time, but was seized with violent
illness Monday night, and died before
morning. Coroner Weldon also held a
post mortem examination, and found
death to have resulted from aneurism of
the heart.

One of the pioneers of California died
Saturday last, in the person of George
Turner. Mr.. Turner was we'll known
among allof the early residents of the
golden state. He had lived here for
over forty years, and was honored and
respected. His numerous friends will
indeed be panied to learn of his demise,
Captain Turner was born November
20, 1922, at Granville, Washington
county, New York. In 1874 he went te
aberdeen. Miss. In February, 1S49 Mr..
Turner left New Orleans on the steam

After remaining in San Francisco q
short time, Mr.. Turner went to Aqua
Fria,. Mariposa county, where he en-
gagged in the business of general mer-
chandising. He remained for sometime,
establishing reputation as keen bus
mess man, whose integrity and honor
was never questioned.
Mr.. Turner next removed to Smelling,
Merced county. Here he became q can
didate for office at the request of his fell
low citizens. For over fifteen years he
was sherif and treasurer of the county.
This certainly is an evidence of the high
personal esteem in which he was held
by thoee who knew him.
Mr.. Turner was broad-gauged, liber-
al-minded gentleman. He lived the al
lotted time of man-three score years
and ten-and then crossed the dark

At the Methodist church last night a
very enjoyable affair was held, in the
form of reception in honor of the
pastor and his wife. Quite number of
the membership and friends of the
church were present, and the evening
was spent in conversation, music and
mirth until late hour, when refresh
ments were served, and the: assemblage
dispersed to their various homes.
Our attention has been btsea called to a
Widespread misunderstanding relative
to the action Ex-senator Doiph upon the
Ftialies boat railway project: He. has
made no attempt whatever to overload
the river and harbor appropriation bill,
as his bill for the dailes is strictly sep
arate measure. The efforts of the DEM
ocracy to defeat it, because, as they
claim, the democracy of Oregon is op-
posed to it, isa matter for the polltic-
ians themselves to settle among them
selves.
B Captain G. w. stones scew fish wheel,
located on the Oregon side of the river,
about a mile below town, caught fiyelm-
mense sturgeon, between the hours of
8 O'Clock last evening and this morning.
Last year Captain Stone caught a stur-
geon that weighed 700 pounds and the
year before j. jackson caught one that
weighed 1000 pounds. The largest fish
caught last night measures three feet
eight inches back of the gills and is
nine feet long. Captain Stone estimates
its weight at 800 pounds.
L There are pleasures innumerable
about The Dalles inviting contentment,
which but few places of prominence in
Oregon can equal and none surpass.
One of the most prominent of these is
the facilities for driving. Last evening a
representative of The CHRONICLE took in
the six-mile circuit below the city, via
the Klindt road, up the Chenoweth, and
back by the Snipes road. Travelling is
fine, and with Chief Judd s. Fish hold
ing the ribbons, and his favorite Sim
Reed in the thills, an occasional after
dinner dash like this aids digestion and
promotes profound repose.- g
