passed my place on their WAY 60 Lunas :,
and ON their return, about midnight,
| heard Smith say, Il have fixed the old
-. She will bother me no more
Then he and Sinclair went home"
1t was brought out on cross-examina-
lion that Mrs. Gregory does not like
smith. She said he had threatened to
kill her, witness named Camille and
the Judge. She also thinks that he stole
a numb Der OF her chickens. She had not
testified before the coroner because she
didn't want to be bothered, Smith hav-
ing hitherto always managed to get out
of trouble after he gotinto it. She had,
however, impaired what she knew to
several persons.
The defense objected to the people in
PRODUCING Mrs. Refugia Smith, the wife
OF the prisoner, as witness. This
woman after testifying that she had been
married to Smith by Justice Jones of
Wilmington and Rev. Father Adam of
the cathedral, was excused by the
court.
The next important, and perhaps the
most material witness to prove that an
assault may have taken place. WAS Mar
garita Eliealde. In company with this
woman they went to Mrs. Lunas' house,
which was locked. Inside there was
talking going on. Mre. Lunae said in
Spanish: LET go OF me, Smith !" ''Un-
hand me, SMITH" and he would tell
her to hush up. She spoke in smoth-
cred voice, but witness distinctly heard
her talk. Then there was sound of
falling, as If Mrs. Lunas had fallen from
the cot to the floor. Mrs. Lunas was
drunk and kept asking for wine. Smith
stayed inside over an hour. As st. Clair
WAS coming back with the buggy, the
witness and Mrs. Smith hid themselves
and saw him depart in the vehicle
toward San Pedro. Miss Elisalde and
old Mrs. Smith then returned to the lat
ter's house and slept under come blan-
kets in the corral. 1t was getting near
daybreak when Smith returned from
San Pedro. He had then woman with
him who slept in the hoube, and they
left near O'Clock in the morning When
he saw Mrs. Smith and witness again ne
cautioned them to say nothing of his
having been at Lunas' the night before.
The witness denied that she had been
offered money by Thomas Botello to
testify ss she had.
The further hearing of the case was
then adjourned until this morning at 8

The police force was inspected yester-

very creditable appearance, the dress

inspected in single rank, and al rule
they made good appearance physic
ally, especially when it ia berne in mind
that there is no police gymnasium where
the men can haye the advantages Of

fact that the men make such a good
appearance should seem as an inspira-
tioa to be perfect in al essentials, and
there is no doubt but that Chieff Glass
and Captain Roberts, az we'll as the ser.

nardino that Deputy Sheriff King had
Captured them in that city.
The boys had abandoned the horse
and buggy in the foothills in the vicinity
OF Cucamonga, where il was recovered

THEY HELD A P0H-NON
The Vernon Irrigat0rs Tell
Their Grievances.
They Think the Chinese are Stealing
Water.
The IrrigatOrs HOtd Confsrancs with
the ZaRjA Comm ttee-Mr. NickeI1
Explains About FIushing
tho Outfhl Sewer.

The zsnja committee held q special
meeting yesterday afternoon to receive
the complaints of the Vernon irriga-
tionists, who claim that they are not re.
ceiving sufficient water.
Mr.. Brewer stated that one of the
chief complaints that the people OF
Vernon had to make was with regard to
the irregularity OF the water supply,
which materially interiered with hthe
plans OF the rrigationists.
Mr.. II. G Braves stated that while he
was serving as deputy zanjero certain
Chinese & rdeners within the city limits
had been in the habit of stealing the
water sold to Vernon parties, and that
he had made repeated efforts to secure
their arrest, but had not been success
full. He thought it wou Id be good
idea to have the detectives make an in
vestgation.
Mr.. John Kitson then made the claim
right to deprive the people Of Vernon OF
water and use it for other purposes.
This brought Councilman Nickel to
a perfect right to use the water in whole
or part to flush the city sewers. He
claimed that the outfall sewer had not
been flushed for some time, and if he
found that he could not secure the necee,
sary water for thiF purpose he would re-
sign as chairman OF the sewer COM
mittee.
Water Overseer Bilderrain stated that
fhprQ WnniA ha g az IN Hnah fhn
fall sewer in two days. The dich at
Date street had been obstructed with
sand and this had interfered with the
Vernon water supply, but it would be
cleaned out by Wednesday evening.
Mr.. Brewer wanted to know how
much water the city officials figured on
as contained in head, and Mr.. Pessell
replied 100 inches.
Mr.. Brewer then claimed that this
amount would be greatly reduced by
evaporation and leakage before it
reached the consumers, and a larger
amount should De allowed. He also
took occssion to say that he was satisfied
that the overseer was doing all in his
power to help the irrigators.
Mr.. Nickel stated that he had under
stood that he mad been hung in effigy at
a meeting held at Vernon ON the charge
that he was diverting all OF the water to
use in the outfall sewer, and to supply
parties along that line. He wished to
say that this was not true, as he had
only insisted that the city should have
sufficient supply of water to flush the
sewers and he proposed to see that this
was done.
Mr.. Bilderrain said there would be
sufficient supply Tor this purpose by
Thursday, and the meeting ended, the
Vernon irrigationists stating that they
proposed to lay for Chinese gardeners or
anyone else who may steal their water.
