action, judgment was rendered in their
favor, and defendants appealed. ~
The agreement between the parties
is not merely an executory agreement
for the sale of the land which is to be
conveyed at future day, designated in
the agreement in which the vendor
would satisfy his obligation by being
able to make the conveyance at the
date fixed in the agreement. 1t is very
evident from the terms OF this contract
that it was not contemplated by the
parties that the vendor should be al
lowed until the expiration of eighteen
months from it's date within which he
might execute the conveyances. The
provision therein that the plaintiffs
should within thirty days from its date
placed the land on the market, and that
as fast as they should sell it the defend
ants should convey the parcels so sold to
the respective purchasers, and he should
receive proceeds of such sales in part
payment of plaintiffs notes, clearly in
dicates an agreement on his part that he
would make such conveyance upon de-
mand of plaintiffs, and by necessary i'm
plicatisn that such conveyance should
transfer title to the land conveyed.
In the present case the court finds
the defendant made express representa-
tions to plaintiffs that his title to the
land was perfect and plaintiffs relying
on same did not cause title to be ex-
amined. In the action for one half the
land an adverse claim was established !;
the validity of such claim established
the inability of plaintiffs to convey title
to any parcel they might sell. Defend
ant knew plaintiffs made such con-
tract to Immediately put the land on
the market.
After reciting further reasons the
judgment and order denying a new
trial are affirmed. HARRISON, j.
The People, respondent, vs. Juan
Mesa, appellant-The defendant was
found guilty Of an assault with intent to
commit rape and was sentenced to be
imprisoned in the state prison for ten
years. He moved for new trial, which
was denied, and has appealed from the
judgment and order. The appeal is
based on an alleged insufficient informa-
tion; next, that the evidence is INSULT
cient to justify the verdict, and also on
the ground of newly discovered evidence.
The court quotes copiously from the
penal code and affirms the judgment
and order of the lower court.
Philip Sichler, plaintiff and respond
ent, vs. P. II. Look ct al, D. A. ARA
smith, appellant-This is an action for
foreclosure of mortgage. Judgment by
default was entered against all of the de-
fendants. Arrasmith appealed upon
grounds that the court had no jurisdic-
tion to enter the judgment against him
and that the judgment as entered ex-
ceeds the allegations of the complaint.
In a lengthy and exhaustive opinion
Harrison, J. affirms the judgment.
Philip Sichler, plaintiff and respond
ent, vs.. P. H. Look ct AL, D. A. ARA
smith, appellant-For the same reasons
as in above opinion judgment is affirmed.

Local Notes From the Herald of That
Place.

Place.
The "Fakir," the able Los Angeles
correspondent of the Banning Herald,
in his last letter to that paper has the
following items:
Flower street is one of the incest resi-
dence streets in the city, and a matter
has come to my ears concerning it that
causes me no little surprise. A resident
OF that street says that a notorious
woman has rented house on the cor
ner of Flower and First streets, and
while her business is certainly attract
ing large number of visitors, and is
rendering the street q more travelled
thoroughfare, it is depreciating the de-
STABILITY of residence in that part of
the city very much. The police have
been notified of the state of affairs, but
take no action.
There is great fake going on in Los
Angeles just now, and some develop
ments are not only expected but are
sure to come which will make rich read
ing. 1t is in the nature of bunco
game, operated by means OF matri.
monial alliance with wealthy widow.
The estate of the widows late husband
runs above 100000, and there are said
to be five parties in the deal, who will
be entitled to ''shake down." There
are interests of little children in
jeopardy in this matter, and the
'Fakir" is going to see that they are
protected.
i lit is to be hoped that the "Fakir"
will be more explicit in this matter
next week. Such scheme as limited at
above should be promptly exposed
