The DAIRYMEN'S ASSOCIATION
Consideration of the Proposition to Rails
Prices

Consideration OF the Proposition to Raise
Prices
The Dairymen's association held called
meeting at Odd Fellows hall yesterday
morning for further consideration of the
proposition of raising prices on those Who
buy milk for the purpose of reselling. The
resolutions which had been circulated dur
ing the week were returned with number
of new signatures, most of whom were in
favor of raising the price of milk to 60
cents per can. few favored an advance
to the amount of 80 cents and others man.
Tested their desire to let matters remain
as they are by refusing to sign the resolu-
ton at all.
The majority of the millsmen of the city
are, however, inclined to look with favor
upon the proposition, and it will probably
go into effect after the first of the year.
A number of new members were added
to the roll of the organization yesterday.
After discussing questions of general i'll
terest to the dai,ymen, the meeting was
adjourned until next Monday at am. In
the mean time an effort will be made to
secure more unanimous expression from
the milkmen upon the question of raising
prices on the under dealers, for which pur-
pose all those who were present yesterday
took copies of the resolution and pledged
themselves to obtain as many names az
DOssbie.

Two Attempts nade by Pris oners to Escape

Two Attempts r1ade by Prs oners to Escape
Yesterday
If things continue as they have done for
the past few weeks. Captain Huston will
lose his job, as there will be no such Or
ganization as the chain gang. Another
man escaped from the tolls yesterday, and
one more made an unsuccessful attempt
toget away.
Bill Lewis, who has just started to serve
a flfty-day sentence, jumped from the
wagon while going to work on Hill street
yesterday morning, and struck through
the lots toward Broadway, with Captain
Huston in pursuit. Bill is regarded as the
fastest sprinter in the entire outfit, and
when the hobos saw him brought back in
triumph by the officer they narveled at the
unexpected agility of the old man, as they
call him.
Later during the day John Bloom es-
capped from the dump pile. This is situated
some distance from the guards, and only
the TRUSTEES and men serving light SEM
fences ale trusted there alone. Bloom
happened to have four days nserved,
but he evidently thought as there was to
be no Christmas dinner today he would see
what he could rustic for himself.

He WAS NOT MURDERED
AS Had Been Thought by His
Friends
FELL AGAINST A CHAIN
Jean Lapetre Probably Died from Cos.
Cussi0n of the Brain
He Had Been Drinking and Was Thrown Out
Of the Wagon - Murder at First
hinted-The Details

Jean Lapetre died at 241O Maple avenue
early yesterday morning under circum-
cumstances which at first appeared as
though he had been murdered. His death
was probably caused by an accident, which
will, of course, have to be determined by
the coroner's inquiry.
Shortly after O'Clock yesterday MORN
ing DR.. Shorb was called 10 The bedside of
Lapetre and found the man to be breathing
his last. Coroner Campbell was notified
and investigated about 10 o'clock. He dis
covered large clot of blood on the pillow
under Lapetre's head which had flowed
from slight wound in the back of the
mans skull, a little to the right. There
was also a slight bruisc on his forehead.
A representative of TIE HERALD called
at the place last night. 1t appears that
Lapeire lived with n woman named Mrs.
j. b. Lelaune, although not married to her.
She sad that Lapetre came home about
midnight on Monday considerably under
the influence OF liquor. He drives a laun-
dry wagon aud stopped the team near the
shed. She went out, and while Lapetra
was standing on the wheel preparatory to
getting out on the ground the horse on
the left side suddenly started, moving the
wheel on which rested Lapetre's left foot
and throwing him violently to the ground.
one anu auOtter woman. the nIreQ girl,
hurried around and found him lying sense
less. They picked him up and got him
into the house and put him to bed. Mrs.
LelauDe stayed awake nursing the injured
man and about > o'clock he became worse
and the doctor was sent for, but nothing
could be done.
The most reasonable explanation of the
affair is that it was I'm accident and result
ed in conclusion of the brain, which caused
his death. Lapatre stopped the wagon by
a tree and near the bottom of this was
found clot of blood about the size of a
quarter. Around the tree is wound a chain
probably four feet from the ground. When
fully six feet above the chain. The sudden
and his head struck against one of the
wound noticed by the coroner. The eliot of
blood was no doubt caused by the bleeding
wound striking against the tree before it
reached the ground. The bruise on the
forche id may have been received in some
manner also from the fall. But as this is
very slight Lapatre may have received it
before he reached the yard. One thing is
certain, the people do not act suspiciously
and there is nothing in the way of theory
which goes to show any reason for La
patre's having been killed.
The coroner will hold an inquest tomor-
row at the undertaking parlors of Robt. L.
Garrett q Co., where the remains will be
prepared for burial. 1t is understood that
Lapatre has wife, four children and
niece living in France. and several letters
from his wife were found among his pos
SessiOus.

Mr.. and Mrs. Percy j. Young arrived

Mr.. Young is highly pleased with eli

outlook.
II consider he said to HERALD repre-
sentative last evening, "that Southern CAL
ifornia offers the best field for safe and
judicious investments of any section west
of the Mississippi river. l feel confident,
even in the short lime that / have been
here, that Los Angeles real estate is the
proper thing for man of means to take
hold of, and intend to have some of it be-
fore go back. Throughout the middle
states we have had fairly good year in a
commercial sense, but among many peo-
pie there is feeling of discomfort, and
they are coming west, looking for new
homes and locations"
Mrs. Young is the brother of Judge d. W..

risters. She, too, is delighted with South

At Emmanuel Church

The Christmas celebration at Emmanuel
Presbyterian church last evening, attracted
a crowd of pleasure seekers that tested the
capacity of the Sunday school room.
Everybody who attended felt we'll repaid,
for all had most pleasant and enjoyable
time.
The stage presented an Eskimo scene.
After brief prayer of thanks, all of the
members of the Sunday school Joined in
the glorious chorus, Merry Christmas.
Then pretty ''good-night" drill was
given by eight sweet little darlings, attired
in white robes with caps.
Mr.. Hitchcock next gave the children a
three minutes talk, after which the rollick-
ing chorus, Hurrah for Santa, was sung.
The topsy-turvey exercise by boys was
followed by another chorus entitled, Santa
Claus Palace. Then came the Eskimo
drill by the boys and girls, after which
Santa A,us came and distributed bon
bons.
The members of the Sunday school re-
ceived no presents, but instead brought
presents with them which were all collected
and will today be distributed at the
orphans home. This was acting out in
truth and in fact the Biblical assertion that
"it is more blessed to give than to receive"

In the matter of the indictment of Frank

one of the superior court, yesterday heard
argument on the motion to set the same
aside. The grounds advanced by Messrs.
Meserve and Variel for the setting aside of
the indictment we're as follows: First, that
the defendant should be discharged be-
cause the matter was submitted to the
same grand jury; second. the allegation
that the indictment does not set out suffi-
GENTLY clear when it was found.
Messrs. Meserve ard Variel argued on
these points for the defence, and Deputy
District Attorney McComas for the people.
After listening to the argument. Judge
Smith overruled the demurrer, whereupon
the defense secured a continuance of the
plea to enable them to take the matter be-
fore the supreme court on writ of habeas

A Narrow Escape

driver of the Singer Sewing Machine
company named Ford had narrow escape
from serious. injury while attempting to
cross in front of Temple-street cable
car at 80 yesterday evening. Car No.
had just started west from Spring street
and was nearing the New High street
crossing as Ford drove up. He attempted
to stop his horse but was unable to do SO,
and the frightened animal rushed across
the track directly in front of the car which
grazed the wagon. The horse made wild
lunge, throwing the driver from his seat in
such way that one of the front wheels
passed over his body. Luckily the vehicle
was light one and no harm was DONE
Bystanders quickly secured the horse and
prevented a runaway.
