allowed to 60 out upon the street. The
other day he went out 90 usual to get .
sniff of fresh air, but unlike the proverb-
ial cat. failed to return.
Shortly afterward it was discovered
that several prisoners in the jail had
lost articles OF more or less value, and
suspicion at once fell upon young Levin.
Search was instituted for the ungrateful
fellow and Detective Auble coon had
him back in prison. He was found in
company with Jack Morrison, the self.
confessed convict who "peaohed" on
William Steadman and Frank Conway,
yhe notorious burglars who were ar
rested on suspicion OF being the
Ontario bank robbers and who are now
in San Quentin.
levin had on an overcost belonging
to J. A. Hull, alias G. g. Hoyt. and also
had ruby pin belonging TO Thomas L.
Young. the WIFE beater, serving time for
battery. Levin may be charged with
larceny. He has yet 25 days to serve on
the charge on which he was committed.

The Considerable Expense 1t Caused the
County.
Carlo Rossi and another Italian, who
work in macaroni factory in this city,
went out hunting last Sunday. While
slaughter;ng oottontails they were ar
rested by Deputy Constable Wright. o.
San Gabriel township, who accused
them OF having shot quail in the en-
closed grounds OF A. B. Chapman. An
examination OF their game bags dis
closed solitary bird.
The offense 10 a high grade misde-
meanor. Consequently Justice of the
Peace Merriam OF Pasadena, before
whom the complaint had been made by
Wright. could only examine them. and
in case OF probable cause, hold the de-
fendants to answer before the superior
court. The evidence taken late ON
Wednesday afternoon disclosed that the
quail had been shot five miles away from
Uhapman's preserves. On motion of
Deputy District Attorney Villa the case
was dismissed.
1t is needless to say that il the dis
trict attorneys Office had been consulted
In regard to the matter. no complaint
would have been issued and money

sharply, as il to convince herself that I
was in earnest, and then, turning
around picked up her children one after
the other and carried them out Of the

For some weeks we saw nothing more

the loss of their pets.

one morning at the house of neighbor

there, making themselves at home in the

"After mutual recognition it was
learned, by questioning the farmers
children, that the cat had brought her
little ones there the very day she had
fed from her old home-evidently to
save their lives.
"They were carried back to our house
but nothing could induce the mother to
risk them there, and they again disap

Several years ago we had no less than

Miss Munroe with recovered strength
and entirely free from pain. When
the time came for her to say good by,
she said, with tears in her eyes, II
