When Objection Should Cease.

Whenever township has plenty of gravel, or can get it cheaply, it should improve its roads. The objection to road improvement on account of great expense should not be carried to an extent that will prevent road improve ment when it can be done at little ex- pense.

WEIGHING THE BABY.

How much does the baby weight
All in all? Oh, who can say?
Not his dainty flesh and bone,
Not his sweet, pink clay alone.
Not his limbs so soft and fair;
These are trifes light as air.
These are but things apart,
When we weigh him in the heart.
Who can weigh the light that lies
IN the heaven of his eyes?
Who can weigh his sunny smiles.
Or his sweetly winsomc wiles7
Who can estimate the worth
OF an angels kiss at birth
Dimples playing hide and seek
In his round and rosy cheek?
Who can know the hopes and fears
OF the mothers smiles and tears?
Who can weigh the prayers expressed
Fer the loved one at her breast?
Who can tell the fathers Joy
Wra pped within that baby boy?
How much does the baby weigh,
All in all? All. who can say!

Officials Salaries Fixed by
the Trustees

SANTA ANA, April 1.-The City
Council and the street railway company
will lock horns on the question of the
paving OF the streets between the rails.
The street car company says it will pave
two feet on either side OF the track, but
not between the rails 1t threatens to
pull up the tracks before complying, and
the members of the City Council say the
company will either have to pave between
the rails or else forfeit its franchise.
mans mouth often gets him into
trouble. Today five hobos were brought
be ore Justice Huntington, and while the
trial was going on, one of them, named
Richard Dalton, told the officers who ar
rested them what he would like to do to
them. When the Judge told him to keep
quiet, the hobo said he didn't care d.
II he got sixty days. Thereupon the
Judge gave him thirty days, while the
rest got off with ten days each. A num-
Der OF skeleton keys were found on the
tramps, as well as saw made from the
blade OF pair of scissors.
The salaries fixed by the City Board of
trustees for the several offices areI as
follows: Marshal, $75 per month; Treas
urer, one-half of per cent of ali money
paid out but school money. This is one
half as much as the former salary. City

Several Cases Heard Before the City
tfsa Justices
PASADENA, April 2.-In Justice Merri-
ans court this afternoon Halse, Bradford
& Co. of Los Angeles and San Francisco
brought suit against A. Clare on book
account, alleging an Indebtedness of
$1,000. The case was laid before jury
OF six men, Attorney l.. E. Doan of Los
Angeles appearing for the plaintiffs and
Attorney A. r. Metcalfe of Pasadena for
the defendent. The case disclosed some
peculiar eatures-apparently a mistake in
figures somewhere-and the plaintiff was
allowed $74. -about 500 less than claimed.
A prospective case for the courts, if the
police succeed in apprehending the per-
petrators, grows out of the burglary COM
mltted last night at the scent lunch
counter, when some pie-hungry individ-
ual broke in the window and although
the counter was laden with varions eata-
bes, passed them all by for three pieces
of pie, which was the extent of his theft
not another thing about the establish
ment being touched. The noise of the
breaking glass was heard by people who
sleep IN the neighborhood, but was. not
sufficient to arouse them, and he had his
fill of pie and departed. Probably these
hungry mortals are oblivious OF the fact
that they render themselves liable to be
convicted of burglary if caught.

Happenings

PASADENA, April 2.-The electric
railway people are making things hum in
their effort to have through cars running
between Pasadena and Los Angeles by
the time the Fiesta opens. The power
house neal the Raymond hotel and the
vaduct over the Terminal tracks at South
Pasadena are the scenes OF the greatest
activity, large force of men being en-
ployed, and everything is being rushed
with all possible dispatch. The con-
tractor saws the viaduct will be COM
pleted in ten days. AT tha power house
the machinery is nearly all on hand and
is being put in position, while the struc-
ture is receiving its roof, and the car
barn adjoining is going up as fast as lot
OF bricklayers can work.
l.. P. Hansen, who was in attendance at
an important meeting OF the company In
Los Angeles yesterday, stated that ten
new cars have been ordered for the line,
which will be shipped from the factory
tomorrow. They are of the latest and
most improved pattarn and will be put
into use immediately upon their arrival,
running every fifteen minutes to Los
Angeles, the time from Throop Polytech-
mic in Pasadena to Fourth and Spring in
Los Angeles being forty-five minutes.
Mr.. Hansen says ten more cars have
also been ordered for the Santa Monica
branch, which the company hopes to
have in operation by the first of August
next. The transfer from the Pasadena
line to the Santa Monica line is to be
made at Fourth and Spring streets, Los
Angeles.
If the company can manage to have
these lines in operation by the summer
season they will, no doubt, have heavy
patronage, for the trip to the beach at
Mnpino 10 that would ha
cally enjoyable in the open cars OF the
