REDoNDo BEACH, Nov. 14.-The base
ball game at Compton yesterday, be.
tween the Santa Fes of Redondo and
the Alfalfas of Compton. resulted in
favor of the latter club in score of 12
to Z. The Santa Fes ascribe their defeat
to the extremely rough grounds, to
which, of course, they were unused,
while the Alfalfas were at home, know
ing the lay of the land. The battery
work of Maher and Carrier of the Santa
Fes was brilliant feature in the game,
the former striking out 10 men, allowing
but six hits, two of which were two.
baggers. The umpiring of Curley was
especially good. The Santa Fes COM
plain of the shabby treatment received

that team then and there.

Some Facts About Brazilian Coffee

In Sac Paulo, Brazil, there are two
coffee plantations, the larger with 600,-
600 trees, of which 250,000 are in bear
ing. This plantation produced 640,00O
pounds of coffee in 1887; last year, 448,-
900 pounds, when great losses were ex-
perienced, and this year the crop is esti-
mated by the best experts at 1,2S0,000
pounds, and should reach during the
next three or four years, when all the
trees are in bearing, an output Of 2,560,-
600 pounds. The other plantation has
$4,000 coffee trees, which are now SO
enormously loaded with fruit as to OBJ
struct theseven-foot paths between them.
The above details are interesting as
showing that in Brazil they obtain in
favorable localities and good seasons a
yield of from four to six pounds to the
tree

The King Case.

The center of attraction, or star of the
occasion, was Walter B. King, the lech.
erous old fellow who was arrested Sat.
urday evening last, in company with
two small girls in his room on South
Spring, near Fifth street. He is man
aged about IS years, with rather long
gray whiskers, and seems to be hall
fanatical.
He was the central figure of attraction ;
some looked upon him with feelings OF
contempt, others with disgust, and the
hobos in the motley aggregation seemed
to regard him in the light of an unnat-
ural curiosity.
Emma Moore, the girl in the case,
was not present, neither were either of
the other three, consequently the NOR
bidly curious were deprived of the
greater part of their anticipated pleas
ure.
The girls in the case are Emma
Moore of lis Winston street, aged IA
years Florence Watson of 1881 South
Spring street, aged about 13 years; Della
Cowan of 1391a South Main street, all
under 15 years of age. The officers who
arrested the man and two of the girls,
on Saturday evening last, and took them
to the central police station, stated that
the girls were partly disrobed, as was
King himself, and that the most inde-
cent practices were INDUCED in. The
officers witnessed these practices thrugh
hole in the door, and finally demanded
admittance.
The girls hid themselves when the
door was opened, but were arrested also,
and portion of their clothing was also
taken to the station. With the excep-
tion of these details, the case was fully
reported il the HERALD Sunday morn
ing.
When the case was called yesterday
the defendant, King, was asked his true
name, and he answered, "Walter B.
King" As the witnesses were not pres
ent it was evident that postponement
would be had. One of the girls left
town yesterday morning, presumably
until the affair elbows over" but the
officers know where she is, and will un-
doubtedly bring her in.
When Justice Austin asked the pris-
oner, King. ii he wished to be tried by
the court or by Jury, he replied:
'sThis is the first time that ever was
in court, and hardly know my rights ;
but, if this ends the case, / will be tried
by you."
Justice Austin replied: 81 have no
idea how the case will terminate; we
have lot yet heard the evidence"
The prisoner then said: "Well, I guess
I'll see q lawyer, and have trial by
jury"
Justice Austin continued the case
until this morning, and held the pris-
oner in 500 bail. As he was told to
leave the dock and Ego below" by Bailif
Appel, the prisoner seemed somewhat
surprised, and said: "Judge, don't
want:to 60 to jail; I've been there long
enough"
"Can you give $500 bail?" asked the
judge.
The prisoner replied no, and Bailiff
Appel marched him down to the ''cage,"
where he has been since the night of his
arrest.
King is charged with misdemeanor
in "indulging in criminal and obscene
conduct in the use Of ayoung girl under
the age of 16 years."
The limit of the punishment is $3.50
fine, or six months In the county Jail, or
both, in the discretion of the court.

1t was field day yesterday in Justice
Austin's court. In addition to the
usual battery and other cases, there
were number OF drunks left over from
Saturday night and Sunday. The pris
oners' box was full. and when the Judge
took his seat and surveyed the field, he
saw that he had hard days work be-
fore him. The court room was also full

Arrestad for Eighting.

Henry Dessel and Walter Jones were
before Justice Austin yesterday morn
ing, charged with disturbing the peace,
by fighting at Washington gardens last
Saturday evening. When asked if he
was guilty Dessel said: eyes, judge
that man asked me to 60 out and fight
NIT him, and 80 went out"
Dessel is much the larger man of the
two, and Jones's appearance indicates
that he was roughly beaten by the fell
low.
Officer Howe, who made the arrest
testified that Dessel struck Jones blow

Over q Livery Bill.

The charge and counter-charge of M.
j. Nolan and F. F. Eastman for battery
came up before Judge Austin yesterday.
In the case against Nolan he testified in
his own defense, and in the case against
Eastman, he was the complainant.
Eastman also testified as plaintiff against
Nolan, and as defendant in his own case.
Officer Farmer, who made the arrests,
also testified in both cases. 1t appeared
that Nolan had boarded his horse at
Eastman's livery stable and had decided
upon changing the animals headquar-
ters. He claims that when he sent for
his horse and buggy Eastman refused to
send the team until the bill was paid,
and that when they met next morning,
Eastman used some inverted language
toward him, that he struck Eastman and
in turn was struck, and he thought
Eastman struck as often as he did.
Eastman testified that Nolan was the
first to use vulgar language, and finally
said: 81 have great mind to trash
you." Then I said to him: "Why don't
YOU get around and do it, instead of
talking about it?" and then he struck
me, and I struck him.
Nolan was fined $5.
On the trial of Eastman, he gave
about the same evidence, but added that
in the exchange of blows Nolan had
knocked out one of his teeth.
"Why did you not state that before ?"
asked Justice Austin.
The witness stated that he had never
been in Justices court before, and was
little nervous.
Officer Farmer testified to arresting
them while fighting, and stated that
Nolan struck Eastman once or twice
after he had placed Nolan under arrest.
Eastman was discharged.

Declining Whale Fisheries.

The whale fishery has declined rapidly
since 1854, when the United States had COZ
ships and barks, 2S brigs and 3S schooners
in it, with total tonnage of 208.899. AZ
present the tonnage is insignificant, certain.
ly not tenth of what it then was. England
is entirely out of the business When the
latest accounts were rendered she had but
three ships IN the trade. Holland had 26o
large vessels and $4,000 sailors in the trade
in 1850; now she has neither boat nor sailor
in the business.

Queer Mohaye Customs.

The Mohave Indians believe that all who
die and are not cremated are turned into
owls, and when they hear an owl hootlng
at night they think it is the spirit OF some
dead Mohave returned. After any one dies
they do not eat salt or wash themselves
for four days. They had formerly an an.
nual burning of property, and all would
contribute something in the flames in ex-
pectation of its going up to their departed
friends in heaven, or "White mountain" !"
as they call it.
