were disposed of by one man, while
fourteen in all, it is alleged, were stolen
by man named Felix Mckenzie. This
individual has been in the habit of fre-
quenting lodging houses, hotels and all
public places, and according to all ac-
counts he never returned home empty
handed.
Report after report came to the police
station about stolen overcoats. The
proprietor OF the jackson house reported
the loss of one from his place. Officer
Hawley was detailed on the case, and
got a very slight clue. He suspected,
however, that it might be a man
he had noticed hanging around town.
At all events, the next time that Officer
Hawley met the man he questioned him
rather closely, and drew out sufficient to
warrant him in taking him down to the
Jackson house. The proprietor of the
lodging house identified Mckenzie as
the man he had seen around on the
morning that the overcoat was stolen.
The overcoat in question had been re-
covered from secondhand store, where
it was sold for 50. The owner of the
store positively identified Mckenzie as
the man vino had sold him the overcoat.
Mckenzie came here from Mayfield,
where he was in the saloon business.
He has done nothing here since his ar
rival. Officer Hawley, who worked up
the case very cleverly, has secured
abundance of evidence against McKen-
zie, and has fourteen distinct cases up
to date.

Chief Glass is in receipt of letter
from Charles Guignon of Helena
Montana, inquiring about the where
abouts of his sister, Palmyre Guignon
The writer is very solicitous about Pal
myre, whom the brother claims was en-
ticed from his home in Helena by a
Frenchman named Pauly, who was to
secure her remunerative position as
cook in Los Angeles.
The letter goes on to state that Pal
myre has been coerced into leading a
life of shame by Pauly, and that he is
living off the earnings OF her and two
other women whom he controls. Pauly
is described as desperate person. 1t
is also stated that Pauly has wife and
children in New York. A photograph
of the girl is enclosed in the letter, so as
to facilitate the work of the police. The
chief is requested to rescue the girl
from her present mode of living and
send her back to him at Helena, where
she will have good home.
The police investigated the matter to-
day. Palmyre Guignon was found in a
crib on Alameda street. She was taken
to the police station. In answer to
questions propounded by the chief, she
said:
"My name is Palmyre Guignon and
my brother lives at Helena. was born
in Amsterdam of French parents. My
brother induced me to come to this
country. He said he was rich and had
fine place in Helena. He promised me
$8 month. came out, but my
brother ill-treated and never gave me
any money. My brother wanted me to
be bad, 30 l could earn money for
him."
The woman said since she had fallen
she was going to keep in the course she
was pursuing. As she is of age the DO
lice authorities could not do. anything
in the matter.
The party spoken of in the letter is
well known, but whether he has any
thing to with the Guignon woman was
not ascertained.

The cooperative sugar factory scheme
was finally crystallized at Anaheim
yesterday, amid the greatest en-
thusiasm. Some unknown party had
distributed dodgers all over the town
during the day before and during yes
terday morning, decrying the PROPOSE
ton, and the citizens as we'll as the rep
resentatives of acreage from the sur
rounding districts, took pleasure in tear
ing up the disparaging document.
The meeting was called to order at
Kroeger's hall at IL O'Clock by J. P.
Jones, 800 people being present. Mr.
Jones was elected permanent chairman
J. Peligreen acting as secretary. F. j,
Captain, the promoter of this kind OF
industry, made another eloquent ad-
dress, in which he pointed out the
advantages of the plan. The general
prospectus was read, and the meeting
organized for business.
The list O. stockholders was first read
and included 1896 property holders,
representing 5000 acres, assessed at
$689,566. Adding As per cent to this
amount, which was 55 per cent of the
actual value, gives total valuation
represented in the factory scheme of
81 100000. Among the subscribers
were Captain & Lenardt of this city,
who have purchased 1853 acres OF the
finest sugar-beet land in Southern Cali
fornia.
The next business was was the cleo
ton of a board of directors for the
incorporated body. The result was as
follows: T. j. Jones, Ill votes; E. P.
Fowler, Ill: s. Littlefeld, 100; A.
Rimpau, 103; f. J. Captain, 1O2: p.
James. 102; III. A. Pierce. "a.
The movement to start cooperative
sugar factory at Anaheim began Novem-
ber 14th, on the same plan
as that agitated in the Cahuenga
valley. 1t was thought by the promot-
ers, however, that it would be an advan-
tage to have the subscribers of acreage
put up, in addition to bonding their
land, 10 per cent of the relative amount.
and this proposition was received with
great enthusiasm. Everybody seemed
anxious to go into the scheme, and post
ers calling farmers to meetings and urg-
ing them to take an interest in the new
scheme. The result was phenomenal.
and the subscription OF over 5000 acres.
under the 10 per cent clause, is a most
commendable exhibition of enterprise.
The whole matter Is now in fine condi-
ton, the organization is complete. and
Mr.. Captain left for San Francisco last
evening to arrange about the necessary
capital.

The Pressure THAT Kills.

You have all heard how William
Henry Harrison, grandfather of the
present president, was killed by the
Office seekers. You have all heard, too,
how other presidents have struggled
under the pressure and the annoyance of
Office seeking till they concluded life
was not worth living. The greatest trial
President Harrison has had in the White
House, and he has had many, has been
the persistence of the place hunters and
his inability to do anything for them.
Private Secretary Halford said the
other day that the president had come
resolutely to the conclusion that if he
We're to serve a second term he would
take steps to rid himself of this burden
by RELOCATING all the minor appoint
ments to the bureau officers and cabinet
ministers. That is where the business
belongs anyway, and that is where it
will go in the near future

Two Kinds of Pears.

1t is remarkable that although new
fruits come to the front every year there
is not pear yet that has been able to
take the place Of the Bartlett or the
Seckel. The Bartlett is European sort,
originating in England and named there
Williams Bon Curetien 1t was intro.
duced into this country, and its name
getting lost it was named Bartlett, after
the man in whose garden it was when
its excellent qualities were discovered.
The Seckel is a native, a chance seeding
found growing near the Schuylkill river,
Philadelphia, and the original tree still
stands and bears fruit
The Bartlett is in season throughout
September, the Seckel from the close of
September and through October. These
two kinds are no exception to the rule
that the quality of all pears increases in
value as the trees get older. The fruit
from full grown Seckel pear tree, for
instance, is far superior to that from a
tree fruiting for the first time. -Practi-
