FLOYD AND HIS SAD IRON
THE ADRoIT DOCTOR AGAIN IN THE
LAWS CLUTCHES.
The willy MsnipuIator Arrested In San
francisco - His Sad Flat Iron
Scheme Again Bobs Up
sereneiy.

DR.. E. B. Floyd, who was arrested on
the eve OF his marriage, and acquitted
of charge of obtaining money under
false pretences,. by means OF patent
sad fiat iron heater, is once more in the
tolls. The San Francisco Examiner and
Chronicle give the following facts con-
cerning his arrest and former career:
The Chronicle says: Yesterday after
noon Chief Crowley received telegram
from ths officials at Stockton asking for
the arrest of E. B. Floyd, alias Homer
Love, who is wanted in that city for q
felony ohense. He was arrested on
Montgomery street about 8 O'Clock last
night by Detective Anthony. Under the
name OF Homer Love, Floyd figured in
the courts here about year and halt
ago on several charges of forgery and
bigamy, but managed to escape punish
ment. His present offense consists OF
selling the patent for cook stove to
several different persons.
The Examiner says: "Homer Love
was. taken into custody by Detective
Anthony ON Montgomery street last
night. The prisoner was booked for
felony, en- route to Stockton. Love Is q
smooth swindler and very accomplished
rascal according to what the police say.
His experience as defendant in the
criminal courts is somewhat extensive.
He has frequently been called upon to
answer charges made against him, but
has invariably managed to wiggle out OF
the clutches of the law.
loves occupation is that OF travelling
man, he says, but the police say he is
more often engaged in petty swindling
operations and marrying women who
have means and are giddy.
Over year ago he was on trial in the
superior court for bigamy. Love won
the heart of an Oakland young lady,
but after few weeks of welded life che
discovered that he had two wives living.
She was made aware of this somewhat
startling fact by being confronted by
wife No. 2. trial for bigamy was the
result, but Love managed to secure an
scquittal.
A short time sfterward he was ar
rested for forgery. Once more his luck
stayed with him, and he was acquitted.
At that time he was csnvssser for q di-
rectory, but, unfortunately for his en-
ployers, secured more money from pat
rons than he turned over to the firm.
a Then Love travelled through the state
disposing OF a patent which he claimed
ON steam heater. About two weeks
ago he was arrested at Santa Clara and
taken to Los Angeles, where some con-
fding person was loser to the extent OF
many dollars through making the &C.
quaintanee of the man with the oily
tongue and genteel manners. He an
swered to charge of embezzlement,
but again slipped through the meshes OF
the law.
Yesterday Chief Crowley received a
telegram from Sheriff Cunningham Of
San Joaquin county asking that Love be
arrested for selling the same patent on
steam heaters to several different per-
sons.

A SEA ELEPHANT.
THE MARINE MONSTER CAPTURED
YESTERDAY AT REDONDO.
Athletic Club Boys Make Big Haul
While Fishing-A New Fish That
Weighed UP in the Thou
sands of Pounds.

Six youngsters of the Athletic club
went down to Redondo Yesterday morn
ing and hired Aleck Mathieson's boat
for the day. Now Aleck's boat ia the
least pretentious of all the boats at Re-
dondo, but the taut and trim Puritan,
which was out with veteran party of
fishers and yschtsmen, wasn't in it''
with the Mathieson boat.
The juvenile athletes had trolled for
barracuda with very slim success for
about three hours, when suddenly one
of them sighted huge mass on the
water. He called Msthieson's attention
to 1t, and the veteran boatman shifted
his helm and bore away for the object
in sight, aupposing it to be green tur-
tie that had eloped from the coast of
Mexico, Reaching the side of the mon
ster, he luffed up into ''the winds eye''
30 as 70 becalm his boat entirely and lay
her alongside the great FISH perfectly
motionless. As he did so, one of the
young men drove large gaffhook into
him, such as are used for gsfin z
unruly yellow-ta1ls at Catalina.
The boatman then jumped for
ward and lowered the blight of
a hslf-inch rope around the brute who
tried to Sound" with it but in vain.
They could not lift the beast on deck for
want of appliances go they towed him in
shore and left him in front of the pavil-
ion. The beach WAS black with people
contemplating the great fish, the weight
Of which is estimated vsriously from
1000 to 1900 pounds.
Most OF the boatmen call it a sea-ele-
phant but those who have been in Aus
tralian and Polynessian waters call it a
sun-fish. 1t is said to be exceedingly
rare and its skeleton will be sent to the
worlds fair at Chicago. The youthful
members of the Athletic club who made
the capture are Chss. s. Goodrich,
Charles Cooke, A. B. Merriman, G.. ..
Miller, L. Jscoby and 1. Jacoby, and
these young gentlemen are very proud
of having captured the largest fish ever
taken in the bay of Santa Monica.

The Demise of well-Known Los Ange-
1enos In Chicago.

H.a..
The cad news Of J. II. Burks' death sip
Chicago did not reach his family until
o'lock yesterday morning. and when it
came it naturally found them totally
unprepsred for such sorrowful intelli-
gence.
Mrs. Burks ia much Frustrated from
the shock, and lies in precarious con-
dition at her residence, % Rosemont
avenue.
Mr.. Burks was one OF Los Angeles fore
most business men, having been en-
gagged in the real estate and banking
business for several years past. He was
born forty-eight years ago in Logan
county, Kentucky, and at one time was
very wealthy and the owner of large
estate in that county. The war, how
ever, proved his ruin, and at its
close little remained of his possessions.
Mr.. Burke held captains commission
in the celebrated Ninth Kentucky regi-
ment and served through the war on the
confederate side. He was always a
staunch Democrat and a very warm
friend of the late Jefferson Davis. After
the close of the war Mr.. Burks came to
San Francisco, where he remained for q
number Of years. From there be came
to Los Angeles and engaged in the real
estate and banking business. He was
closely associated in business with @.
M. Wells, former president of the cham
Der OF commerce, and had considerable
mining interests with the late George
R. Shatto. Mr.. Burks leaves a family
OF four children, three boys and one
girl. His eldest son, d. III. Burks, 10
teller in the Citizens bank, this city,
and the next in age graduates on the
goth OF this month from the
classical department of the University
OF Chicago; the remaining children
are of tender years. All day yesterday
telegrame of regret and coincidence were
being received from friends of the fam
lily, especially from Mr.. Burks' old
friends in the southern states.
Mr.. Burke remains will be placed in
the receiving vault in Chicago for the
present, no definite arrangements hav-
ing been made for their interment.

eracy was retrograding, while that OF the
Union was improving.
After the war he remained in private
life for IL years, though he busted him
self to bring about between the whites
and negroes an era OF good feeling and
united effort for the common prosperity.
OF abolition he declared in 1866 "The
deed has been done, and for one never
wish to see it revoked; nor do | believe
the people OF the South would now re-
mand the negroes to slavery if they had
the power to do eo.'' LAS a slave" he
said, "the negro was faithful to us as
freeman let us treat him as friend.
Deal with him frankly, justly and kindly,
and my word for it he will reciprocate
your kindness" At last the great up
rising of 1876 came, and General Hamp.
ton was selected to head the Democratic
ticket, which was successful by major
ity of 1134, and he was elected Gov
ernor oHSouth Carolina. In Novem-
Der, 1878, Governor Hampton was re-
elected without opposition. While hunt
ing on the 7th of November he was
thrown, breaking his leg in two places,
so that amputstion became necessary
subsequently, end for some time his
was in danger. He recovered. to be
elected to the United States senate and
was afterward reelected.
He was conspicuous figure among
the veterans at General Grants burial.
The commissioner will remain here
five or six days, meanwhile looking into
the affairs OF the Central Pacific. He
will not examine the Southern Pacific
from here south, as his time is short.
He may come out for that purpose, pos
sibly, later in the year. As it is now, he
has all he can do to get back to Wash
ington by the LIST July, the time he is
due.
He will go from here to Tacoma, and
begin an examination from there east
ward OF the Northern Pacific road. AS
the main line OF the road alone ia almost
1000 miles, and there are many branches
besides, he will be keHt very busy. His
family will accompany him on his north
ern trip. but DIR. Taylor will after a day
or two proceed direct to his home in
South Carolina.
General Hampton was tired last night
after his long trip, and retired rather
early.

The DrummeF's Story Topped by the
Usual Quiet Man I'm the Corner.
Everybody in the smoking compart-
ment Of the sleeper had told story ex-
cept one quiet. inoffsnsive sort OF man
in the corner, and the drummer eyed
him with suspicion as he finished what
he considered the corker Of tha entire
combination, says the Detroit Free
Press. AS the drummer concluded the
quiet man poked his head cautiously
out of his shell and coughed slightly as
men do who have lain dormant awhile
and rouse themselves to utterance.
II Hremembers' he said, without fur
th6f preliminary, "a queer circumstance
which happened to me during a summer
visit made some years ago in Kansas.
| am reminded of it by the story of our
friend here''-nodding toward the drum
mer-' tell Of q shower of fish falling
from the sky. I can readily believe his
story - the drummer looked grateful
land hope be will believe mine. One
afternoon we were sitting out in front of
my friends house, some three or four of
us, noticing the peculiar shape, color
and movements of the clouds, when all
at once, as true as gospel, gentlemen, an
elephant, alive and kicking, dropped
right down in front of us, out Of the sky.
and more astonished looking brute
never saw,
The drummer was spellbound and
everybody else choked up, speechless.
The quiet man looked around on his
auditors. GfsfA
TITS as true as preaching, gentle
men," he went on; 'aud though, as q
rule in Kansas, It doesn't rain elephants,
It did on that occasion, and is accounted
for by the fact that cyclone had struck
q circus 20 miles to the west of us, and
furthermore it was raining lions and
tigers and horses and hyenas and mon
keys and tent pins for week afterward,
the biggest things, of course, coming
down soonest"
my dear SIR" gasped the drummer,
as the quiet man was about to continue,
"don't say another word. travel for a
liquor house, and If you want barrel of
cocktails give me your address, and I'll
send it to you by the first cyclone that
passes our place."
