SAN IA ANA PAVING WAR.
The Street Railway Company
Refuses to Do Its Share
of Work.
May Be Deprived of It's Franchise
If 1t Still Holds Out Against
the Trustees.

SANTA ANA, CAL, Oct. 5.-The paving
of Fourth street, between Main and Spur
geon, was commenced on Monday, and
one side of that area is now down to grade,
ready for the concrete. The contractors
have thirty-five days in which to complete
the work.
An interesting phase of this matter is
the attitude of the street railway company,
which has refused to pave its line in these
two blocks. M. ]. Bundy, superintendent
of the system. declares that the company
will forfeit its franchise sooner than incur
any further expense.
As it has been ordered by the City Trus-
tees to do the paving there seems to be no
alternative except forfeiture. Under the
franchise held by the company the Trus-
tees have the power to annul its entire
privileges within the city limits if it does
not pave its line in accordance with the
specifcat tons adopted.

The Jury Trying anderson Unable to
Reach Ferdict.
MADEIRA, CAL, Oct. 5.-The trial of
Andrew Anderson, on a charge of arson,
terminated to-day without verdict, seven
jurors voting for acquittal and five for
conviction.
Anderson, it was alleged by the prosecu-
ton, was the accomplice of Fournier, re-
Gently released on writ OF habeas corpus
by the Supreme Court OF this State. The
trial of the case has consumed week and
half. The prosecution relied upon con-
fession that Anderson had made at the
jail, subsequently to his preliminary exam
lnatlon. After arguments of day and a
half this confession was admitted in evil
dence, but in some particulars it varied
considerably from the rest of the testimony
introduced by the prosecution. Witnesses
testified that Anderson WIS seen running
away from the scene of the fire some
twenty minutes before the alarm was
sounded.
The defense attempted to prove an alibi,
and introduced proof to show that the con-
fession was made for the purpose of impli-
eating Fourier, by Anderson, in order
to escape from mob which had as
sembled at the Jail and was threatening to
hang Anderson. Anderson evaded the
mob, the Sheriff taking him to Borden and
thence sending him to Fresno. Andersons
next trial will take place on the 18th of
this month.

The Oregon OHtIdtU Held to AtUait q
Grand JUry's Action.
PORTLAND, Or, Oct. 5.-Elda Wood
who held up the Roseburg-Coos Bay stage
early in August and who was not captured
until September %, was brought here to
await the action of the United States Grand
Jury, soon to convene.
Wood is about "a years of age. He went
to Ollalla early last April from Marion
County and began work on farm. He
was employed during July to assist in the
postoffice, and while there made himself
acquainted with the workings of the office
and the mails. There was boy in the
postoffice from whom he learned some
matters by plying him with questions. 1t
was from the lad that he ascertained that
the through mailpouch had brass lock
on, and that was the.sack he told the stage
driver to throw out.
Wood had also told two men in Olalla
that when he got ready he proposed to
hold up the stage and intended to do a
good job; that he did not propose to re-
main around Olalla all the time. The tes-
timony of the boy and the two men at the
examination made matters look very
cloudy for Wood. The two pistols sup
posed to be used by Wood at the holdup
were purchased from the Postmaster at
Olalla and were identified by the stage
driver.

Union High School building costing

There are many other important inn

The mustard crop fell very much short
of an average crop. This fact and the

mustard business and depend on other
crops in the future. The bean crop is
turning out fairly well, both as to quantity
and quality.
