THEY GOT THEIR DINNER
BUT JERRY FIRST TOOK THEM
FOR JURORS.
The Delmonico Of Southern California
Figures In q Recent Interesting
Event In Which Chicago
Walnut Buyer Appears.

RIVERA, Aug. I've all remember
the little furry some time ago occa-
stoned by the well-known restaurateur,
Jerry Illich. presenting a bill to the
county dads for meals supplied certain
juries, and we also remember how the
irate Jerry declared that in future, il
the county would only allow him two
bits meal for Jurors, that he would
have to eerve them "two bit" dinners.
An amusing contretemps. occurred re-
Gently in this connection that is too
good to keep. One day last week there
came to Rivera by appointment three
jolly young men, the representatives OF
welI-known commission houses, with
the object of securing the handling of
the Los Nietcs and Ranchito Walnut
associations crop this year, which will
probably amount to 70 carloads or
more.
One of the gentlemen is member of
big Chicago firm, and if we are justi-
fed in assocating jolly aud good-na-
tured disposition with adipose tissue,
this gentleman should be the prince of
good fellows, for he weighs 275 pounds
and his generosity is further proven by
the fact that he invited the entire Wal
nut association, over hundred mem
bers, to visit the worlds fair with their
wives and children, at his expense OF
course he got the walnuts and it was ar
ranged for the proper parties to meet
next day in Los Angeles to fix up pa
pers, ETC., and all hands to drive with
"Chieago."
The time arrived and the crowd started
for Jerry Illich's, headed by Tom Gooch.
Everybody knows Gooch. II they don't,
they ought to soon as possible.
"By ganny bows" said Gooch, as he
counted noses, "there's" just IL of us.
Old Jerry III think it's another jury %
As they entered the door "Chicago," !"
for little pleasantly, accosted the head
waiter, and told him he had hungry
Jury with him, and wanted a first-class
dinner for them.
TIE waiter didn't enthuse much, and
looked absolutely indignant when 'Chi-
csgo', insisted on having the tables set
end to end to accommodate the entire
party; ''ssthat he could watch them "
he explained. However, in course OF
time the tables were arranged and
spread with little dishes, "hot rounds"
and the various adjuncts of the ordinary
two-bit dinner. Chicago" began to
fume and freta
Look here. Mr.. Gooch, thought you
said this was first class French restau-
rant? This won't do. Let's get out of
this"
"By ganney, boys, guess they think
it is jury, sure enough" replied
Gooch, aud then explained Jerry's en-
counter with the supervisors.
A good laugh followed, after which
Chicago apologized to the waiter for the
trouble he had caused him, and ex-
planned that these gentlemen were not
Jurors Cat presently. but high-toned wal
nut growers from Rivera, and that be
wanted the very best the house could
afford. Whereupon the tables were
stripped, and soon rearranged with
Jerry's finest linen and costliest silver,
and half dozen obsequious attendants
were soon engaged in bringing on the
various courses of one of Illich's famous
French dinners.

In urging my expulsion from the Borough

ing you said, For my part find it is impos-

knowing my every act will be misrepresented.
We warned the gentleman six months ago
that if he persisted in deliberately lying to
the people through the paper we would be
compelled to take the stand we have. All we
ask is that he will report the proceedings
correctly and he has refused to do so.'
Now, Mr.. Lamb, if your above statement is
true, if it is true that you and your colleague
councilmen were obliged six months ago to
warn me because 1 lied and was incorrect in
reporting the proceedings of the Council, and
have since refused to report the proceedings
correctly, will you please state why it was
that Council allowed me to act as temporary
official secretary at two of its meetings with
in the past six months, when the official
secretary was unable to be present.
