A BULLET IN HIS HEAD
Samuel Lester Shoots Himself While He Was
Insane


Samuel Lester, former employee of
Geo. T. Insley, attempted suicide last even
ing. He placed a revolver to his right ear
and sent a ball into his head.
The deed was done at about clock at
a spot near the corner of Los Angeles and
Commercial streets, and the report of the
pistol at that time and place startled
many people who happened to be on the
street.
The man when found was lying on his
side with the blood pouring from the
wound. He had held the pistol so close
that the powder had burned his face.
AT the Receiving Hospital DR.. Bryant
removed the ball. and while he considered
the wound a dangerous one, said it was
not necessarily fatal.
From letter found upon his person. it
was ascertained that the mans name is
Samuel Lester, and that his address is 125
South johnson street. During the eve
ming Geo. 7. Insley called at the hospital
and identified Lester as former employee
of his in Kansas. He stated that about
three years ago Lester was sunstruck, and
that at regular intervals ever since his
mind becomes deranged. 1t is presumed
that while laboring under one of these
spells, without any knowledge of what he
was doing, he attempted suicide.

SINGLE TAKERS TALK 1T OVER
If Man Owns Himself He Owns the Fruits
of His Labor

A large audience filled Blanchard -Fitz-
gerald Hall last night, despite the threat
ening weather. The occasion was the
regular weekly meeting of the Single
Takers.
The chair announced that the next
meeting would be addressed by Rev. r.
NJ. Webster: Why the Unemployed? Hon.
Frank Finlayson was then introduced.
He was greeted with warm applause as he
took the platform, and was frequently APP
plauded during his address. His subject
was, Democracy and the Single Tax. He
ably and eloquently presented the views
of a Single Taxer.
In a clever, forcible manner, he ex-
planned what he considered true Democ-
racy-the Democracy of Thomas Jeffer-
son.
He then proceeded to explain the single
tax and how it could be applied. The
single tax meant one tax only, and that
would be drawn from land according to its
rental value, irrespective of improvements.
No other tax was Just. Every other tax
was tax and an unj Just burden on labor.
Ii man had natural right to himself,
he had a right to the fruits of his own
labor. Under existing laws and condi-
tions labor was compelled to turn over
most of its earnings to landlordism. I'm
der the single tax system landlordism as
it now exists, would be no more. Until
the rights of all in this respect are Sc
cured there could not be general prosper
ity in this country. The single tax had
nothing in common with socialism, ma
tionalism or communism. 1t was most
emphatically and distinctively individ-
uali SIN.
After the address there was lively dis
cussion on the merits of the speech and
on the single tax philosophy generally.
During the evening very fine music, both
vocal and instrumental was rendered by
five pupils of the Somers Musical Acad-
envy.
The three young gentlemen, Messrs.
Turner, Keys and Hunter, rendered sew
eral selections on their guitars and ban
jos, and Misses Stevens and Yancey
played and sang several duets
The chair announced that the next
meeting would be held on Wednesday
evening, February Goth, and be addressed
by Rev. R. M. Webster on Why the I'm
employed?
At the close of the exercises every per-
son in the audience was invited to take
literature, which was distributed free.

FLEECING A MAGICIAN
Herrmann's Experience With duiIeIess
Xoufh

Herrmann's Experience With a duiIeIess
Youth
Hermann, the magician, once met his
match, and thus pleasantly tells how an
innocent-looking young man cleverly out
witted him:
1--WE were at private room in hotel
one evening, and there met some friends,
and was introduced to a mple-looking
youth of the dude persuasion, whose face
was as vacant in expression as pound OF
putty. This youth had been Dragging of
his power as poker play er, and had made
the others so tired that they whispered
me to take the conceit out of him for the
sat down. Well, when we began the game
l allowed the youngster to win in order to
get him interested; and the better to en-
joy the circus, the others dropped out and
my victim and | had the table to our
selves. OF course | was to give him back
whatever | won from him-that was un
derstood. We made the game quarter
ante and dollar limit, so that we could
use money without making any awkward
change. Every time my callow friend won
a pot he put the silver and bills in his
pocket, and would chip in the money as
he needed it. After he had won a re-
spectacle pile began to get my work in,
and, by handling and dealing the cards
in my own peculiar way, soon had his
pile considerably diminished. Occasion
ally l would let him win, just to keep the
fun up; and l don't know but what |
enjoyed my opponent,s innocence as much
much to his surprise; and then my
friends could not keep it in any longer.
81 say, old man, said one, do you
know with whom you've been playing?'
"'Yes, replied my victim calmly;
Hermann, the magician, and he's a
good player
This was somewhat of a surprise all
around. But laughed and handed him
back the money had won. He wouldn't
take it. No, sir. Said | had won it; had
he won mine he would have kept it, and
under no circumstances would he take it
back; that was not his way of playing po--
kerr 1t was no use for me to protest and
tell him l had deliberately robbed him.
He was sorry that he had got in with a
man who didn't play square game, but
said it was his lookout; he ought to have
seen that he was being feeced, and with
his eyes wide open, too; but he was not
the man to squeal.
81 tell you felt mean. ibid not think
it half so funny as l did before. But all l
could do or say made no impression on
my victim, and, with a dignified bow, he
left us.
All l can do l said to one of my
friends, will be to give this money to
some charitable institution. Then l
gave the waiter one of the bills l had won
to pay for some wine. He came back with
it and the information that it was coun-
terfeit. Yes, sir; that guileless youth had
won my good money, and rung in over a
hundred dollars worth of paper on me
that wasn't worth a cent pound. I'm
pretty good on handling cards, but poker
is very uncertain game-very uncer
tain.

ROBBED BY FOOTPADS.
A chinaman Knocked Down and Robbed Last
Evening.


Pasadena Feb. IA Chinaman named
Wong, who is in the employ of DR.. Hodge,
was knocked down and quite seriously in
jured by couple of foetpsds at the cor
ner of Fair Oaks and Lincsln avenues La st
evening about $3.50.
Wong had put in the day at Los An
Angeles, and had just returned and
started for his place of work in North
Pasadena, when he was set upon by the
fellows He says he noticed man pass
him near the corner, and Immediately
afterward some one dealt him blow IN
the back of the head, knocking him sense
less, with club or some heavy, blunt in
strument. The fellows at once went
through him, but failed to find the $40 he
had in his pocket and made off with
bundle of clothes which he carried The
Chinaman lay on the ground for an hour
or more before he recovered conscious
ness and made his way home He was
quite badly injured by the brutal assault,
having a deep cut over the temple and
several teeth knocked out. Nothing was
seen of the fellows by the police, as is
usual. 1t does seem.as if events OF this
character and petty robberies are all too
numerous in the city, and yet there has
not been an arrest in single case for
months
