An Exciting Inctaent at the Banning
Depot.
The waiting room OF the Southern
Pacific depot at Banning was the scene
yesterday afternoon OF an exciting cpl
sode, says the San Bernardino Courier
OF yesterday. A few minutes before the
arrival of the weet.bound overland. No.
20. buggy drove up TO the station. A
young man about so years Of age alighted
and going into the waiting room walked
up to middle aged lady who was chat
ting pleasantly with her little son and
exclaimed: "You have had him long
enough" He then lifted the little fell
low into his arms and quickly regained
his buggy, and before any one knew what
had happened drove off in the direction
OF Moreno.
The herrified mother boarded the in
coming passenger train for Los Angeles,
where she said she would intercept the
husband, for such he proved TO be. The
lady in question is a Mrs. Tucker, who
resides at Whitewater, few miles west
of Banning. She and her husband have
been separated for several nonths. Mr..
Tucker resides at Los Angeles. His de-
serted wife upon arriving in that city
will ewear to a warrant of arrest charg-
ing her husband with abduction.

Additional Particulars OF It's Speedy
Completion.
Elsewhere in this issue, says the San
Louis Obispo Tribune, we reprint from
from the Chronicle an item with refer
ence to the railroad work in this county
and the prospects of early compl elton,
which was practically antidicated by
the dispatch received and published by
us on the previous day from the Associ-
ated Press but which being somewhat
more extended and containing more par
ticulars, we give our rsadsrs. They
will, however, note, of course, that the
account of the construction is more or
less erroneous. The cost of the work it
will be noticed is given as $500, 900,
whereas it has already cost probably
three times that amount. The length OF
the tunnel work ia also far from correct,
and so on. But the time at which the
road will be opened for travel is, we pre-
sumo, according to orders OF the South
ern Pacific company, which are like
unto the laws of the Modes and Persians
and will undoubtedly be obeyed to the
letter.
Yesterday evening there remained to
be completed of the STEINER creek
bridge about seventy feet. Halt the
last tower ia to be raised this morning.
and the rest of the bridge is matter of
a day or 30. The contractor indeed says
that by Friday noon the work will be
completed, that is all parts of the bridge
will be in place. At that time the pas
senger trainH may cross il they are ready
to do 90. With the completion of the
bridge nothing remaineG to be done ex-
cept to lay the rails from that point into
town, distance of abeat three miles.
1t will not then be matter Of any diff
Guilty to have the passenger cars into
the depot grounds on the 9Th Of May,
and we may safely assume that they
will be there.

Preparing for the Beet Harvest--A run
away Accidsnt-Notss.
CHINO, May 2.-The Chino Valley
Beet Sugar company is receiving daily
shipments Of machinery. and last Satur-
day the Southern Pacific ran a special
freight train Of twenty odd carloads OF
coal and lime rock. Several OF the new
boilers are in position and steam will be
got up for testing them in few days.
To visit the factory these days is to
step into fnll-fedged foundry and ma
chine shop, and the din and clamor OF
metal working tools in the hands of the
stalwart army OF machinists and engi-
neers is almost enough to deafen one.
The immense smokestack still cleaves
the atmosphere in it's skyward course,
being already so far advanced as to be
seen by passengers on the Southern Pa
cihc between Pomona and Ontario.

harvesting the beet crop this season 10

 Dunno" he curtly replied as he drove n fly of his bald head with his left hand.
 You don'tl That's the Gallup of it again! They didn't even know what they was goin to do when they went to the poorhousel had to ask you as many as seven times before you knew whether you wanted to git married or sit around and act silly-that is, didn't ask you if you wanted to marry me, of course, for the Fullers could marry the best in the coun- ty, but had to let you know that you was keepin others away. Mcbbe you think that seventh sign will come when you are down to the office or over to the sawmill, and that it won't be fur you as well as me but you'll be greatly mistaken! I asked Mrs. Jones particularly about that, and she said you couldn't git your neck out of it. Are you goin to sot right thcro and read and smoke and grunt and let his world be all smashed to splinters, or are you goin to git up'n do sunthin to ward off the dangcr?'
 Mir Gallup arose, knocked the ashes out of his pipe against the railing, nodded to a farmer driving past in wagon and then sat down to the case of White versus White again.
 i've shaved and suffered and bin the pati0nteSt wife in the world, and this is what l git fur it!" sohbCd Mrs Gallup Its jest as mother said it would be the d:y I married you! might as well give right up now as any time. Indeed do give up. I want to he laid out in that dove colorcd dress, with my hands crossed and my hair waved. 1 ortCr hcv q $20 cof- tin but 1 Shan't rise up from my grave if you don | pay but $l5. All my things arc to go to my sister Mary, and if 1 was you I'd put up q decent looking gravCstonC, even if 1 had to run in debt fur it. I'm not goin to bind you about second wife, but do hope you'l Il be kind to the cat and not forget to feed the hogs. Farewell, Samuel Gallup, farcwcll!'
 She rushed into the house. carrying the damp napkin and pulling her chair after her. and as Mir. Gallup rrillcd his pipe for another smoke he heard certain sounds which indicated that her bread had come up and she was kncading it in the most vigorous fashion.

For instance, at tho regular meeting last Tuesday evening, when cv- erything was moving of as slick as q land slide after 20 days of steady rain, tho all dcrman from tho First ward got up and moved the previous question. There was no previous qutStiOn to mOvC but when tho alderman from the Second ward told him 50 tho honorable gentleman called him a stcrilizcd liar. No manual was ever invented to cover such case. Anything to get between those two statesmen and prevent shooting must move at the rate of 100 miles an hour. It moved. We got there and held on to both men till tho city clerk could remove their guns, and five minutes later it was all over. The al derman from the First explained that he had intended to move to lay on the table and that he used the term stCrilized liar' without realizing its depths of dcpravity. No; we don't depend on any manual We simply see that our guns arc loaded, keep our eyes open and leave the rest to Provi- dence.
