Heavy Fine for Beer Selling
PASADENA, June 8.-There has been
considerable complaint lately about
the quality of water which is being
furnished by the water company, in
many cases disagreeable odor arising
from it, especially when bailed.
Commenting upon this, the Star OF
last evening lays the cause of the trouble
to the 'effiorescence of the growing moss
in the mountain etreams."
The utter absurdity of such state
ment called forth the following from
prominent citizen:
II think the Star man has had his
mind diffused' by some eminent author
ity on the water question or else no
has taken some of the fine powder OF the
'dfyed matter from the efflorescence OF
the growing moss, which has been di-
luted with some ingredient that has
had wonderful effect upon his imagin-
alton.
'sNow, to come down to plain English
that everybody understands, the fact is
the dried matter, II submitted to
microscopic analysis, would be found to
4 consist OF the efflorescence of the
Z polythalamia or polliwog in the reser-
8 voirs to a much greater extent than
s. 'dried moss" and the citizens of Pasa-
q dena must assuredly be brought into
y complete state OF innocuous desuetude
y TO believe such rot.
\ "Now, young man the water is bad,
a the managers of the water companies
are responsible, and the consumers
s should. and will, call them to &C.
count"
5000 PER BOTTLE.
The luxury of selling beer in Pasa-
dena comes high, but it seems we must
have it, at least that is the opinion of
/ Mr.. Werner, proprietor OF the Keystone
s lunch, who was fined 5000 by City
4 Recorder Rossiter, this morning, for
selling beer contrary to the city ordin-
ance governing the sale of wine and
beer. IL will be remembered Werner
was arrested some time ago by the city
marshal, and at the time OF his arraign-
ment entered a plea of not guilty and
retained Captain Simpson as his attor-
ney. When the case came up for hear
ing this morning the defendant's attor-
ney stated that his client wished to
change his plea to guilty. He promised
in behalf OF the defendant that the
place should in the future be conducted
asked that the court be as lenient as
possible. City Attorney w. f. Arthur,
who prosecuted the case also recon-

surprise to the defendant, there being
an evident disagreementa as to what con-
stitutes light fine, but on the whole
the size of the fine imposed will no doubt
have healthy effect upon the restaur~
ant keepers who are inclined to take
advantage OF the privileges granted un-
der ordinance 125.
