and Death.

Fred who had often been here be-
fore wanted big trout and knew how
to get them. He cast very near where
did, but gave the lite fellows no
chance. SO rapidly was his single fly

But my banter was UNDECIDED. Fred

A dozen times he swiftly trailed his
fly across the water getting rise at
every cast but not letting them have
it. Twenty feet away TO the right he
seemed to have drawn all the small

Democratic STRIKES.

Those newspaper advocates of the

they make executives of the laws re-

was III the spring and summer of 1856,

ONCE NOT ENOUGH.
SANTA FEE EMPLOYEES ASKED fO
PAY POLL TAXES TWICE.
A Railroad Mans Experience at the
Court House-Insulted By an on
cial Because He Demurred to
Pay His Poll Tax Twice.

Mr.. s. M. Baker, of 1875 Virginia ave.
nue., this city, called at the HERALD
Office yesterday to register another COM
plant against the Union League county
government. Mr.. Baker is in the en-
ploy of the Santa Fe company. He is
property-owner, but to be sure that
the cash should not escape passing
through the hands of the now famous
courthouse ring, no demand was made
on him for poll tax, but all the en-
ployes of the Santa Fe were duly garn-
isheed.
The money was obtained that way,
but evidently the book keeping, as we'll
as the other methods of the Union
League bureaucracy, is at fault, for most
OF the Santa Fe employees have received
from the collector notice like the fol-
lowing:
Los ANGELES, Cal, Oct 10, 1892,
J. M Baker, 1875 Virginia Ave:
credited on assessment roll for state poll tax
You are charged with three dollars. After
the Sc ond Monday in January aext it will be
four dollars
Mr. Baker says he called at the poll
tax collectors Office and tried to get the
matter righted. When he showed his
receipt the correction was made, but he
claimed the official who served him
used the most insulting language to
him. Mr.. Baker says that in the strug-
gle for freedom for the Union league
despotism the Santa Fe employees will
contribute q great many votes at the
coming election.

of the Affair.

Miss Frances G. Webb, teacher in
the Reform school at Whittier, COM
mitted suicide yesterday morning,
about o'clock, by cutting her throat
with penknife. The blade of the pen
knife had been inserted in the carotid
artery, or jugular vein, from which the
blood flowed freely, causing almost
instant death. For the past week Miss
Webb has been in ill-health and de-
spondent by the misfortune of losing a
considerable sum of money through the
failure of an eastern bank, in which her
savings were deposited. Owing to her
ill-health she feared that she might
have to give up her school, and this 80
preyed upon her mind that she sought
relief in death.
About noon on Friday she was taken
with a fainting attack, and fell upon
the floor in the school room.
Some OF the pupils hastened to her as
sistance, and others ran for physician.
Mics Webb was taken to her rooms and
school was dismissed. In a few hours
her condition was somewhat improved,
and about midnight she awoke
and said to lady friend
who was watching by her bedside
that she felt much better and that there
was no need of her remaining longer.
The attendant turned down the light in
the room and left, as requested. AT
about 8 O'Clock in the morning she was
awakened by hearing groans in Mis-,
Webb's room. adjoining. The lady called
assistance and hastened to Miss Webb,
room, where they were Mortified at see
ing that she had cut her throat, as above
stated. Medical aid was summoned. bu,
the suicide died in about an hour.
The deceased is from Pasadena, and
has brother living there. She had
been teaching in the school only about
two weeks. The remains were taken to
Pasadena yesterday afternoon. Coroner
Weldon held an inquest yesterday, and
the jury returned verdict in accord
ance with the facts.
