SANTA ANA'S STREET PAVING
The City's Work Is Now Well Under
Way
No Idle Men In Town.--A Street Rail-
way Franchise in JeopardJ--News
and Personal Hatters

SANTA ANA, Sept. 30.-The Union
Paving company of Los Angeles COM
menced their work of paving Fourth
pillow attached to six horses through the
street that is almost as hard as that por-
tion that is already paved.
The city is full Of business. No idle men
who want work are to be found. The
greatest question now is what will the
street car pany do ABOUT paving their
portion of the streets. IN IA talk with Mr..
Bundy. superintendent of the com pany.
be says that if the road is any good to the
city the citizens owning property along
the line can pay for paving the street car
lines and the company will Issue them
stock to pay for it at 81 while it has cost
th com pany 81 80, and if the citizens
owning property ON this line don't think
it is OF benefit to the city the board of
trustees can tear it out or order 1t out and
the citizens can pave them to the center
of the street and get nothing for it. 1t is
plain proposition.
In regard to the trustees FORGETTING the
franchise it is believed they will do what
Is best for the city.

ANAHEIM. Sept. 3o.-Early yesterday

away or did not dare to carry out their
purpose of blowing the safe open. The
powder was found in paper just outside
a rear door of the building. A heavy
iron maui, brace and bit,a wood chiseI,
a cold chisel and small hammer and q
few other tools were left in the office.
q The safe contained nearly S'ls'o worth

SOUTH PASADENA NEWS
The Santa Fe Strengthening Its
Curved Track
1r. Hoffman's Strange Experience In Los
Ing His Team In a Swamp.
Notes and Personals

SOUTH PASADENA, Sept. 3o.-For
the past four weeks our town has been
fearfully torn up and disarranged by
la-ge force of men, at least fifty, first
with plows and scrapers, then with track
layers, then a construction train with an
army of shoselers. ETC.. all en- oamped
between our central streets. The object
i've result was to straighten out the
compound curve in the Santa Fe rail-
road track that has always delayed and
often stopped trains in passing through
town. To get somewhat near straight
line the surveyors had to cut through
orchards and door yards, make fills,
change grades, etc., and finally our rath-
err handsome depot had to be put on
wheels and moved block away to the
new track. All these things have very
much changed the appearance of the i'm
mediate locality, whether for better or
worse Is divided question. On two or
three points all are agreed, viz, that the
Santa Fe company has endeavored to do
the best for the town as we'll as TO, them
selves.
