A DARING RESCUE.
Three Men Taken From an Ice FIoe which
Was Carving Them to Certain Death.

Three Men Taken From an Ice Floe Which
Was Carrying Them to Certain Death.
Captain l.. o. Lawson, William p.
Kay and ". w. Wilkinson, members of
the Evanston life saving crew, had a
narrow escape from death the other
morning while attempting to clear an
chor ice away from the waterworks in
let. The men were in a small row wboat
and were caught between large cakes of
floating ice and carried two miles out
into the lake. After hard fight with
the floating ice they were rescued by a
volunteer party consisting of Sam Pee
ney, chief engineer at the Evanston wa
terworks; John Moore, the lighthouse
keeper, and Bob Skyles and Byron Daw-
son, firemen at the waterworks.
Early in the morning water was run
ming very slowly into the large main,
and fearing another water famine Cap
tain Lawson and his companions started
for the intake, which is one mile Off
shore. A heavy wind had been blowing
inshore all night before, and the shore
was lined with great cakes of ice. Aft
er working hard the men succeeded in
launching their boat and started
through the bobbing cakes for the inlet.
When about half the distance had been
covered, the men noticed shat the wind
had changed and was blowing hard
from offshore, and that large field of
ice was forming in a solid mass about
their little craft and floating rapidly
out into the lake. Pike poles were used,
but it soon became apparent that unless
some aid came soon they would be car
ried far out.
A white handkerchief was tied to an
oar, and the men took turns waving 1t.
The signal was seen by John Moore,
who was at work at the top of the light
house tower. He hurried to the water
works, short distance away, and told
Engineer Peeney, and both men, realiz-
ing the danger in which their comrades
were, called Skyles and Dawson, and
hurriedly manning another boat the
four men started to the rescue. The off
shore wind by this time had cleared the
shore water, and the rescuing party
soon reached the ice foe, in the center
of which was the boat containing the
three men. A life line was thrown
across to the prisoners, and one after an
other they jumped from cake to cake
and reached the rescuing boat. They
were forced to abandon their own boat,
which was fast in the ice. The men
were all brought to the waterworks Of

EXPERT CRICKET MATCH.

Bakersfield to Battle with Los Angeles
at Last.
1t will be remembered that some few
weeks ago q challenge was issued to all
California by the Bakersfield cricketers,
who apparently held themselves above
the balance of the world as exponents
of the British national gone. Embod-
led in the challenge was clause stating
that Los Ange les would be preferred to
any other place in California az tbs
theater in which the superiority OF the
Bakersfield team could be demonstrated
over all others. This challenge was i'm
mediately taken up by the local cricket
ers, with the result that hotly con-
tested struggle for premier honors will
take place at the Athletic park, Los
Angeles, on Friday and Saturday OF this
week, in which the opposing teams will
be Bakersfield and Los Angelica. A
powerful eleven will do battle for the
south, and it is anticipated by many
that our representatives will send
home their northern rivals with
wholesome regard for the
cricketing abilities of those who
fight under the banner of the Angels.
The game will be called at III O'Clock
I
p.m. Those who would like to see the
game, which occupies central position
in the hearts of all Euglishmen and
which attracts scores OF thousands of
spectators in England each day, will
certainly never have better oppor-
tunity of witnessing an exposition
thereof, aa the two teams comprise
many expert players, and the game will
be fought with the utmost vigor on each
side.
No charge will be made for admission
to ladies.
The teams will be made up as follows:
Bakersfield -Messrs. Cliff tcaptain),
Richardson, Crsigie, Summerhsyes,
Rich, Burmister, Cheals, Strathon,
jackson, Ashford, Cruice.
Los Angeles-Messrs. Pedley. Maude,

FILTERINe MERRIMAc WATER.

1t Has Been Found That Pollution In This
Stream Increased the Death Rate.
The city of Lawrence, Mass, is ex-
perimenting with filter bed' with
which it hopes to purify the water of
the Merrimac river, the source of the
water supply of that city. The sum of
$50, 600 already has been expended for
the purpose. The experiment is being
made in pursuance of the discovery
made two years ago by the state board
of health of Massachusetts that certain
cities which had suffered especially
from typhoid fever were using water
from polluted rivers. The board gave
assurance that by the use of filter beds
9S Per cent of the bacteria organisms,
some of which are harmful, would be
removed.
The fItering was begun Sept 90,
since which time daily investigation
shows that this proportion of the bac-
terra is removed from the water, and
also that the water is so purified that
three -fourths of the remaining per
cent die before the water reaches the
dwelling houses. The fact that the
number of deaths from typhoid fever in
that city during the months of October
and November of last year was only
one each month, while formerly the av-
erage for five years was five each month,
seems to furnish conclusive evidence
that there is virtue in the plan rec
commended by the Massachusetts board.

MADE A GOOD SHOWING.
THE INSPECTION OF THE Ma.
TIONAL GUARDSMEN.
The Men Turn Out in Their New Uni-
fsrms-The Drill and Manual
Well Dvne-Many Spec
tators Present.

The annual inspection and muster OF
the different commands of the National
Guard in this city took place at the
armory last evening. The galleries and
large POI on of the main floor were
thronged with well-known citizens, their
wives and daughters to witness the in
teresting ceremony, and the hall pre-
sented brilliant picture, with plenty of
gold lace and gilt buttons shining out on
the background of the new blue uni
forms but recently furnished to the citi-
zen soldiery by the state.
The inspection was made By Major
Driffel OF General E. 2. Johnstons staff.
Lieut.. Col A. d. Cutler, the inspector
general OF the state OF California, being
present. Gen. E. P. johnston and staff
were inspected in the parlors at z
O'Clock, after which the signal corps of
the First brigade, under command of
Lieutenant Lawrence, formed up in the
armory, turning out full complement
oil men attired in the new state fatigue
uniforms, with white collars and black
ties. The men presented fine appear
ance. The signal kits were then opened
and inspected, as to condition, ETC., and
then came the inspection of companies
A, G and f, and the field staff and band.
Colonel Schrieber and all members OF
his staff were present, and there was
full attendance of the members OF the
band.
The three companies composing the
Los Angeles battalion OF the Seventh
regiment promptly marched into the
hall at s 25, on the sounding of the ad-
iutant's call, under command OF Maj.
Nj, L, Starin. The battalion was ex-
ercieed in several drill movements,
which generally were executed with
CELEBRITY and precision, the manual OF
arms being executed with q quickness
and snap indicating that the boys had
been attentive to instructions. The
new uniforms received frorn the state
we're closely inspected by the inspecting
officers, in view of the fact that many OF
the original uniforms sent to the regi-
ment had not been found in accord with
the contract specifications. The second
lot received were found to be of more
acceptable character. Company f,
under the command of Capt. NJ. L.
Shaw, carried off the honors as to the
number of men present, turning out 80
men out OF total enrolment strength
OF 81; while company A, under Capt.
Henry Steere, ranked next in this par
ticular, having 40 men presest out OF 80.
Company G, under Captain Giowner,
WAS the third company numerically,
turning out only 26 men, the slimness
being accounted for by the recent
trouble in this company. The general
appearance of the men OF the companies
was in all essentials superior to that
presented at the last three inspections.
Among the visiting officers present
were Colonel Hanson of the veteran
corps of the + regiment, Chicago;
Colonel Teed oi vernon Markhsm's
staff, Captain Coos Of Company B, Sew
enth regiment, Pasadena, and Captain
Welch OF Company D, Ninth regiment,
Pomona.
The inspection terminated with drill
with the Gatling gun by gun detsch-
ment from Company A, under command
of Captain Steere, that was very credita-

As Mrs. Theresa Riddell, of Alameda

down by team driven by Harry Held,
and trampled upon by one OF the horses.
She was taken into Ebinger's reataurant,
where, with the aid of water and fan
ming, she was restored to consciousness.
She was then placed in carriage and
conveyed to her home. DR.. Pritchard,

Captain Smith Sets Sail without Pre-

San Diego Sun: Readers OF this PEI
per will remember that it WAS stated
some days ago that Capt. Sam Smith,
who murdered young George Neale at
sea, had returned from Los Angelica and
was intending to take the schooner Lou
to Santa Monica to engage in fishing.
1t is now etated that the old man did
board the schooner and set sail. But it
is also said, with some degree OF cer-
tainty, that he no sooner got outside
than be set the schooner's prov toward
the south. No one saw him buy any
provisions or take on board any fresh
water. 1t is probable, therefore, that
he has taken aboard OF his beiuddled
brain another hallucination that will
cause this to be his last voyage.

CHRISTIAN CHURCH ROW
A SUIT BROUGHT TO RECOVER
CHURCH GOODS.
The Old Case In which Rev. Mr. w:eh.
Fignrsd Bobs Up in Court
whore the Factions viii
Fight II out.

The Central Christian church, o.,
which Rev. Mr.. Wight was formerly
pastor, and from which he was deposed
through alleged immoral conduct with
some OF the fair sex OF his congregation,
was the plaintiff in civil action in JUS
tice Auatin's court yesterday. The de-
fendant was l.. NJ. Anderson, one OF the
directors OF the church.
The suit WAS instituted some time ago
for the recovery of goods and chattels
amounting to $l32. Briefly, the action
is defined in the statement that the
church sues for decision as to whether
the directors OF the church or the direc-
tors OF the corporation to which the
church belongs are entitled to possession
OF the funds.
1t appears that when some OF the
members of the church became diseatis-
fed and even shocked at Rev. Mr..
Wights conduct. they deposed him,
aud he and some of the congregation
Immediately set up new church.,
Among the members was Mr.. Anderson.
The articles in the church were claimed
by the branch organization, and ita
members attempted to gain possession
OF them. The other trouble among the
congregation was fully given in the
HERALD at the time.
In the answer filed by Anderson he
alleges that A. 7. Bell is one OF the pro-
moters of the action, and that the Rev.
Mr.. Wight is the instigator. He says
that by reason of immoral and unchrist-
ian conduct Wight was deposed from
the paslorate and was expelled, and that
a part of the members went elsewhere
to worship.
Attorneys Lawson, Ordis and Dunlap
are counsel for the plaintiff, and II. 7.
Gordon for the defendant.
The case will be concluded today.

New Year,s Cards In France.

The custom in France of sending ones
visiting card to acquaintance on New
Years day is rapidly increasing. Even
the establishment of society for the
suppression of mplimentary visiting
cards has been powerless against the
progress of fashion. The French post
office officials have made an interesting
calculation on the subject. 1t is reck-
oned that in the department of the Seine

by postmen on the 1st of January, 1881.
The following year it had risen to

and finally, in 1894, it reached nearly
