CARVER AT WEST LAKE

Thousands Witness the Fents Of the Rifle
Wizard and His Talented Mare
The shooting exhibition given by DIR.
Carver at West Lake park yesterday after
noon was one of the features of the day.
Thousands of people visited the park to
see the worlds champion perform his
wonderful feats of mark smanship.
Besides the regular program of shooting
a number of objects thrown into the air
simultaneously, hitting flying targets with
the gun held in dozen different positions.
and breaking glass balls thrown directly at
his head. DR.. Carver further exhib ited his
astonishing powers with the gun by repeat
ing all of these tricks while riding ON
horseback.
One feature which brought forth storm
of applause from the spectators was the
clever way in which the doctor would
break blue rock pigeon the second time
after having taken good-sized piece off at
the first shot. Several times this difficult
feat was accomplished, the marksman
breaking the first pigeon twice and CATCH
ing the second. thrown almost at the same
time, before it had reached the ground.
No one who has never seen the champion
shot would believe it possible to perform
the miraculous tricks that he does with
the gun.
Perhaps the most difficult shot made was
the one in which the doctor tossed up five
glass\ balls with his left hand and broke
them all before they had reached the
ground.
TO say that the exhibition was clever
would be to express a partial truth. 1t was
more than clever. The seemingly impossi-
BILE shots which were made with the great
est apparent ease were truly marvellous.
After the shooting exhibition the Califor-
mia diving mare took head long leap from
a high platform into West lake, entering
the water head6rst like professional diver.
The same performance will be repeated
this afternoon.

A CHRISTMAS FIRE

r. c. Howes and Family Cheated Of Their
Turkey Yesterday
The residence of f. G. Howes, cashier OF
the Los Angeles National bank, was par
TALLY destroyed by fire yesterday after
noon shortly after 1 o'clock. entailing a
loss to the property and furniture of about
$4,000
The family were seated in the library
preparatory to the Christmas dinner being
served, when the coachman rushed ex-
citedly into the house, saying that the
place was on fire. Everybody ran out and
saw that the entire upper part of the house
was enveloped in smoke and flames DART
ing from the roof. An alarm WAS turned
in, but the house stands on the corner Of
Thirty-third and Royal streets. SO it was
some time before the engines arrived.
More delay was caused by there not being
sufficient hose TO reach the house from the
plug on Figueroa street, and when more
line arrived the pressure of water was
slight and but poor stream could be got
at work on the flames. However, the first
floor was saved, the attic and second story
being burned.
Practically all of the furniture on the
first story was got out by the crowd of
helpers, who amused themselves for a
while by throwing chinaware and other
breakable things from the upper windows.
The loss 10 covered by insurance. and will
reach in the neiQhb rhood of $4,000 on the
house and $1,000 on the furniture burned
or injui cd by water.

PECULIAR NERVOUS AFFLICTION

If Frenchmen are as subject as other
folks to nervous Authorizations touching
the symptoms of disease, there is likely to
be q widespread alarm in France as to To-
comotor ataxia. DR.. Goncelin has pub
lished in the journal de la Saute an account
of the symptoms forerunning and accom-
panying that disease, and his article has
found it's way into lay publications. DR..
Goncelin sets down five leading symptoms
OF the disease in it's early stages,
and intimates that where three of
them are well defined the patient is
almost certainly on the edge of the
disease. One symptom is the inability of
the person affected to stand firm and
erect wi b his eyes closed. Another is the
symptom of the stairs, so called from the
fact that the patient 10 in constant fear OF
falling as he descends a stairway. The
third symptom is found in the way the pa
tient crosses his legs. He lifts the leg in
this act much higher than is necessary to
clear the knee of the other leg. and the
toes describe in air an arc of q a g. circle.
The fourth symptom is the confused and
hesitating manner in which the patient
moves whom suddenly commanded to rise
and walk, and the painiu, effort he makes
to keep his equilibrium when suddenly or
dered to halt his march.
In the first case under this symptom the
patient seems uncertain of his equilibrium.
In the second, under the same symptom.
he tends, when suddenly halted, to lean far
forward, or, with view to counteracting
this tendency, to lean back at a perilous
angle. The fifth symptom Ia the inability
of the patient to stand firm and erect upon
one foot, at first with his eyes open, then
with his eyes closed. A man in normal
health can ordinarily preserve his equili-
br!um upon one foot with his eyes open,
but it takes some practice to enable him to
stand still upon one foot with his eyes
closed; the eyes are an important adjunct
in preserving ones equilibrium. whether in
walking or in standing. In the case of q
person stricken with locomotor ataxia it is
difficult to maintain equilibrium upon one
foot with the ey es open, and impossible to
maintain it for single instant with the
eyes closed.
Al! these symptoms are to be noted with
the fact in mind that persons in good
health are likely to be nervously affected
by the knowledge Of the experiments with
the view to discovering such symptoms are
in progress. 1t is also important to re-
member that person OF sound health, but
unused to smooth floors, descending an I'M
carpeted stairway of polished hard wood,
is likely to be Sc zed with fear of slip
ping, and instinctively stiffens the ankles
as one does IN walking on ice. A steep
stairway, two, is alarming to old persons
or to nervous persons, when they make the
descent.-New York Sun.

About to LOOSE Her Skirt

The incident happened on Fourth ave.
nue. only the other day in front of one of
the large dry goods stores. A well-known
and very beautiful young society lady was
out walking with one of her best fellows.
Just at Fourth and Jefferson streets she
made the startling discov. ry that her skirt
was coming off. 1t was not the outside
skirt, and was in consequence not 80 easily
held up. Her escort perceived that some
thing was wrong, and asked her what was
the matter.
~ am about to lose my skirt" she said,
coolly.
They stopped, and she tried to hold it up
and pin it, but she was unable to do so.
Finally she just gave both of he skirts a
good grip with both of her hands and lifted
them so high that little narrow blue
band with a silver clasp on it showed
plainly on dark and shapely background.
The young man kept his eye on her all the
time, and noticing how interested he had
become, she said sweetly:
"You will please look the other way
while I 60 into this dry goods store and
fix it,"
In few minutes she was all right, and
was again walking by the young mans side
as If nothing had happened.
