Last night at 10 O'Clock a man who
gives the name of James Smith, was
riding on a cable car across the San
Fernar 10 viaduct. He was intoxicated,
and as the car reached about the middle
of the viaduct he tumbled off and
pitched headlong to the ground below, a
distance of about 20 feet, He struck
upon his head and shoulders, and
seemed at first to be badly injured
about the face. When brought to the
receiving hospital at the central station,
DR.. Bryant found three ugly cuts on his
face, but beyond that he did not appear
to be injured.
A large number of the friends of Capt,
John @. Ainsworth of Oakland, one Of

despaired of, but last night his son re-
ceived telegram that the veterans
condition had taken marked change
for the better. Los Angeles has warm
corner for the old gentleman in her
heart of hearts. He and his partner,
Mr.. Thompson, came here and made
some heavy investments in local enter
prises just at time when everybody
was decrying the success OF Southern
California.
A particularly cad bereavement was
the death of Edward Knight Dawes,
which occurred suddenly last Sunday
morning. Mr.. Dawes, accompanied by
his vile and his sister, arrived in Los
Angeles nearly ak months ago, hoping
that the change from the rigorous eli
mate OF the Dakotas to the balmy air o!
Southern California would restore to
him health and strength. There was q
marked improvement in his condition
since his arrival until Sunday morning
when he suddenly became worse, and in
short time he breathed his last. The
wife and sister are left to mourn the loss
of the loved one, far from home and
among strangers. The deceased was Q
Quaker, and the wife and sister also be-
long to the Society of Friends, and they
would undoubtedly be greatly cheeret
and upheld in their deep afflictioE
If those of their faith would call upon
them. The funeral will take place at II
am. today from his late residence, No
1909 West State street.
