SOME HOMESTEAD LAW.
JUDGE CLARK DECIDES THE CASE
OF ALEX ANDER VS.. BROWN.
The History of the Case-Homestead Dec
larations-The Judge Renders
Decision for the Defendant.

Judge Clark yesterday filed an opinion
in this case of Alexander ct al. vs..
Brown ct al. This was suit to quiet
title to tract of forty acres of land de-
scribed in the complaint and submitted
upon an agreed statement of facts.
1t appears in August, 1874, the said
tract was conveyed to Mary A. Alex
ander, the then wife of the plaintiff, T.
@. Alexander, by deed in torn OF bar
gain and sale, for the expressed consid-
Grafton of $2500. That thereafter and
while said spouses were residing upon
the land, they impressed it with a
homestead character by declaration
made in due form of law. Mary Alex.
ander died September, 1881, and T. G.
Alexander intermarried with plaintiff,
Nina Alexander, and while residing on
premises with second wife, recorded q
second declaration in due form.
In February, 1887, defendant Brown
got judgment against Alexander and
execution was levied on said property.
Ten acres were set aside as homestead
and thirty acres sold by sheriff to de-
fendant Brown. No notice of said pro-
ceedings was served on Nina Alex
ander. i8
The Judge, after reviewing the case,
says: 1.-The only question discussed was
whether or not the proceedings to ap-
praise and set apart the homestead in
Brown ct al vs.. Alexander were null
and void. because Nina Alexander, wife
of defendant therein, was not made a
party thereto. 1t would be a sufficient
answer to this to say that the provisions
of the statute were strictly complied
with. Section 124S, G. c.. reads; "A
copy of the petition, with notice of the
time and place of hearing, must be
served upon the claimant at least ten
days before the hearing This was
done. am of the
opinion that judgment should 60 fol
defendants, and it is 80 ordered"

A CURIOUS BURGLAR.

He Ransacks q House But Takes Moth
ing.
1t was reported to the police yester-
day that burglar had, the evening be.
fore, entered the house Of W. A. Hersey
at First and Quebec streets.
The neighbors of Mr.. Hersey, whose
family is at the seaside, say that at
about 5 80 o'clock, Friday evening they
saw man climb into window of the
house. They do not explain the strange
fact that they did not give an
alarm. When Mr.. Hersey reached home
he found everything in the house over
turned. The appearance of the prem
ises indicated that they had been thor
oughly ransacked, but careful investi-
CATION failed to show that anything was
missing. In anticipation that the thief
might return to carry off some OF the
articles he had rumaged up, Mr.. Hersey
caused guards to be set all night, but
nothing more has been heard or seen of
the burglar,

FRIDAY MORNINGITES.
THE CLUB CONCENTRATES ERECT
ING A BUILDING.
tion Discussed-The Teacher and
Their School Board Squabb1e.

The first business before the Friday
Morning club at it's last meeting was
consideration of various plans of pro-
viding suitable place of meeting for
the coming year. The first proposition
was to incorporate the club, form a
stock company, sell enough of the stock
sufficient to warrant the purchase of a
lot and the erection of building. A
committee reported but one suitable hall
ito be found at a rental which the club
could pay. Both matters were referred
to special meeting July 8th.
The club took up the matter of the
teachers and the school board, and
passed vote of thanks to Mrs. Hughes
for her nerve and her willingness to
undergo the annoyance incident to con-
testing her seat on the school board.
The report OF the educational commit
tee was adopted. 1t was that any steps
taken in the matter of the discharged
teachers should be taken by the club as
whole.
Parts of the school law were read to
the effect that ''every city and county
having board OF education may have a
board of examination, consisting of the
city superintendent of schools and four
other members. OF these, two at least
should be experienced teachers elected
by the board of education and all must
be residents of such CITY,"
Such "board of examination has
power to adopt rules for its own
government and for the examination of
fooohoro To ranou ond for nm.
professional conduct or evident un-
fitness for teaching, revoke any certi-
fcate previously granted.
''The holders of city certificates,
when elected, shall be dismissed
board OF education or for incompetency
unprofessional or immoral conduct"
1t was stated by a visitor that this
because, for economy, the city board Of
examination has been merged into the
county board.
A paper formulating the protest OF the
Friday club against the action OF the
Los Angeles board of education in the
discharge OF numbers of the women
teachers with no specified charges, and
also the discharge Of the superintendent
of kindergartens as a movement toward
dispensing with the whole kindergarten
system, was presented for discussion.
Mrs. Mahew made pleasing address.
A late conner then spoke few for
chile words against the clubs making
efforts that she knew would be futile
whereas there are channels in which the
energies of the club might be directed
to good effect.
The lady's remarks were so direct and
convincing that the motion to adopt the
paper was reconsidered, and the docu-
ment was laid on the table by rising
vote.
The club then listened to a paper on
Elihu Vedder by Mics Louisa A. Off.
The paper was read by Miss Helen Mari
Bennett, and was worth far more than
the twenty minutes lett to be devoted tc
it.
The club then adjourned.

Some Things About Pasadena Seen with
Eastern Eyes.

Some Things About Pasadena Seen with
Eastern Eyes.
Pasadena, says a correspondent OF the
Washington, ILL.,, News, is still alive
and to the front in every good work and
deed. Her interest is the interest of all
who dwell within her walls. Her vel
fare is the welfare of her inhabitante.
Her improvements beautify her general
appearance. Her wealth is counted by
millions of dollars, and her men Of
wealth are not chary with their fortunes
to make any improvement necessary to
add to the beauty and attraction such
improvement may bring about. We
now more especially allude to
one of the grandest projects and
schemes ever undertaken in the
state Of California, to wit: The
great Pasadena and Mount Wilson rail-
way to be. 1t is now no longer talk /;
the wind work, it seems, has been done
and now only awaits few short months
in which to materialize and become a
full-fedged mountain road. For the
past month or more, Prof. T IS. Lowe, q
Pasadenian, has had a force of
some thirty or more men grad
ing for the roadbed up the noun
tain, and the work is being rapidly
pushed forward in every detail for the
construction and completion of this
road to point hallway up the grand
Sierra range just northeast of our city
which they are confident will be done
by early fall. After this part ia COM
pleted the work will still be pushed for
ward up the mountain till Mt. Wilson
| is reached at an elevation OF some 5000
feet above sea level. Just think of it;
a train of cars drawn by some powerful
motor vending its way upward to and
into the clouds 1t seems almost inn
possible that inventive genius is ade-
quate to such a task; but the mind oi
man is beyond comprehension bis
innate desire to accomplish great things
is unquenchable; his motto is ever on
ward and upward; he, with his inven-
tions, climbs the lofty mountains and
| plows the deepest ocean.

THE COLLINS CASE.

It Ends in the Prosecuting Witness
Withdrawing.
In Justice Austin's court the case of
the people VS.. John 7. Collins, for fell
onious assault, came to an end yesterday
morning, the complaint being dismissed.
The complaining witness, George Bell,
who had claimed that while an inmate
of the city Jail he had been brutally as
saulted by Jailer Collins, appeared on
the stand and testified that he had
no grudge against Collins, that
he had not intended to bring suit, but
had been persuaded to do go by Horace
Bell, Esq. In view of this fact, and the
of the circumstance that the witnesses
for the prosecution were very incon-
sistent in their evidence, the court dis
charged the defendant.
