A Peculiar Case in justices oourt-A
Cemetsry-Local Affairs.
SANTA MONICA. June 14.-Santa Moni-
ca has been treated to case OF family
jars, the docket of Justice G. @. Twich-
ell having the following entry: "The
People vs.. John Doe, accused Of grand
larceny in stealing bay mare and bug.
gy from the public highway in front of
Justice Bryant's Office at The Palms to-
day." A warrant was placed in the
hands OF Constable Dexter, who was
busy unloading load OF brick from his
yard at the Vawter block. After dom
ming his best suit and Redondo hat. he
went in search of the aforesaid John
Doe, who proved to be fair daughter Of
sunland, who, presuming it to be the
property Of her husband, who was in
side the court room as q juryman,
thought she would have ride in the
fine afternoon among the corn fields.
The constable found her returning home
with it, and on her arrangements this
state of facts being brought to light the
aged justice, who, notwithstanding his
years, has soft spot for all members of
the fair sex, dismissed the case, the
complaining witness paying the costs.
A number of progressive Santa Moni-
cans have associated themselves to-
gether for the purpose of organizing a
cemetery association, and bonded five
acres with tho privilege of more
situated on the corner of Nevada avenue
and Twenty-sixth street. The situation
could not be better, it being easy of ac-
cess, the cars of the Santa Monica and
Soldiers Home street railroad passing in
front of the property. The pipe line
also passes, which guarantees all the
water necessary for irrigation. 1t is the
intention OF the gentlemen composing
the syndicate to build walks and road
ways through it, to lay it out srtisticslly
and lay coping around each lot or
number of them at least, before placing
them on the market.
Professor LIE Roy D. Brown who has
officiated as principal, of our public
school for the past year has decided to
accept the position offered him as super
intendent of the schools of Los Angeles.
In parting with his services there is
deep regret on the part of our citizens,
who recognize his faithful labor and
scholarly attainments, but they still
recognize that he goes to q wide field Of
usefulness where his abilities as an edu-
Gator of the highest rank will have
wider scope and plain of usefulness.
1t ia peculiar instance pehaps but
two OF Los Angeles best educators. San
ia Monica has furnished in Mr.. w. w.
Seamans and Professor Brown. We also
furnished our sister seaside town Redon-
DO with her efficient principal Professor
E. p. Rowell. There is an underlined
quality in the atmosphere here which
calls the very best to our shore in edu-
Gators as we'll as wharfs and will yet
bring the deep sea harbor.
Professor N. +. Smith will undoubt-
vacancy, and Prof. 9. l. 8. Moor, as a.
sietant.
