DAvENpORT'S INGRATTUDE
1t Is Repaid by a Conviction for Grand
arceuy

W. d. Davenport was found guilty yes
terday in Department One of grand lar
ceny as charged, and the jury added to
the verdict that the value of the property
he had stolen was more than $50. Only
one ballot was necessary for the jury to
convict Davenport. Judge Smith will
sentence him on Saturday morning.
Davenport is very ungrateful individ-
ual. He was out of money and without a
home, and G. w. Tillinghast, clerk in
the employsof the Southern Pacific, took
him home, giving him place to sleep
and something to eat. After he had kept
Davenport about three weeks, Tillinghast
on the evening OF November 90 1894,
when returning from his work. found that
his guest had disappeared with $125 worth
of his personal property, which he had
sold to man named f. j. Brent of East
Fifth street.

A FREIGHT Agent Roasted

The Herald reporter roasted Generai
Freight Agent Gay of the Santa Fe yester'
day. Mr.. Gay, since his arrival on the
Coast from the frozen wilds of Chicago,
has proven the most genial of men, as
well as the most astute of railway traffic
managers, hence to be roasted by Her
aid reporter was entirely uncalled for, In
Mr.. Gavis private Office in the Bradbury
block there is handsomely tiled CRATE,
which holds about two bushels of coal
and kndling. The general freight agent
started out here when it was raining III
this country. In all the other offices OF
the Santa Fe fire was burning. so the
thoughtful janitor laid fire ready for
Mr.. Gay.
But Mr.. Gay when he got here: had
come from a zero country and he didn t
want fire, so he hid the ugly CRATE with
a handsome picture. When The Herald
man called at Mr.. Gays office yesterday
he found the general freight agent sitting
at his desk with his back to the CRATE.
The reporter didn't know there was
ready-inade fire behind the picture hiding
the CRATE, so when he lit his pipe he
threw the lighted match in behind the
picture.
The talk went on, both Mr.. Gay and the
reporter having theii backs to the fire
place. Suddenly Mr.. Gay mopped his
brow and said: Its very warm day,
isn't it?"
The reporter wiped beads of perspiration
off his face and said it was a warm day.
The talk went on, and pretty soon Mr..
Gay loosened his collar, remarked that
the heat seemed to increase and that he
should request his chief clerk to leave
that sunset necktie of his at home unless
the weather cooled.
Finally Mr.. Gay grew hot, very hot,
and he said: "I'll open a window" and
then the blazing fire in the crate was dis
covered.
Mr.. Gay looked at the reporter second,
then at the fire. closed his desk and said /:
II don't mind being roasted by news
paper men when | deserve it, but this
case is--well | guess III call it Il day.
Come around some cold morning and
light your pipe again., and away he

A Good rlan Gone EastI

1t was with sincere regret that all who
knew him bid H. G. Thompson, late gen
eral passenger agent of the Santa Fe, good
bye yesterday. While glad to know that
Mr.. Thompson had climbed big step up
on the ladder, the people OF Los Angeles
and especially those who have had con-
slant business relations with him, were
sorry to see him leave. During his
career here, both as an official and as a
gentleman, Mr. Thompson made friends
on every hand not the least of whom are
the newspaper men. In his new home
it is to be hoped he will find his sur
roundings as pleasant as they were in
the Sunset Land. He'll come back, sure.
Snow, ice and oranges ten cents each wi
send him back TO California in less than
six months. Let it be hoped that he will
come with another star on his shoulder
straps.
