SOME FUN TO COME

J. 1arion Brooks, Esq, Posing This Time A
Party to a Suit
When lawyers, instead of being retained
in suit. become parties to it, there 10
likely to be some fun for outsiders. A suit
was filed yesterday with the county clerk
entitled j. Marion Brooks VS.. M. McGreal,
Larkin Snodgrass and Charles Ingalls,.
1t appears from the body of the com.
plant that Brooks and McGreal are joint
owners of $1,000 worth of street improves
ment bonds, and lot AS, Macdonald tract,
of The Rancho San Pedro. worth $500.
McGreal, his partner claims, refuses to
give him title to his half of the property,
and Snodgrass has the title of record and
holds the property in trust for McGreal.
Ingalls, claims IN adverse interest in tho
real property and has consequently been
made party to the suit.
Brooks asks that McGreal be made to give
an accounting of money collections on the
bonds, and to deed half of the entire prop
erty to him, and that Snodgrass be made
to surrender half of the bonds and the
property he holds in trust, and that Ingalls,
be de barred from pressing any claims adj
verse to plaintiff.

OUT ON THE HIGHWAY
An Old LADY OF Ninety Years Evicted FroA
Her Home

An Old Lady Of Ninety Years Evicted Fro1n
Her Home
There was great flow of Language in
department six yesterday when the law
yers got into a wordy wraDgle over the
case of Evarts vs.. Mrs. Mary Gardner.
The case has some particularly sad and
Rrievous features, and yesterday it was il
lumined by side light of humor as Attor-
ney Bacon, for the plaintiff, and Judge
Williams, for the defendant, became in
volved in hot debate and threw legal verb
iage. sizzling hot, in big chunks at one an
other. and only ceased when the court
threatened to fine them both for contempt.
1t appeared that Mrs. Gardner is widow
90 years of age. When her husband died
there was debt Of $210 owing to Evarts.
The old lady was too weak to attend to her
affairs, and no application was made for
the administration of her deceased hus-
bands estate. Evarts obtained Judgment
for the amount of his claim by default. =
five days. stay of execution being granted.
Attorney Bacon had the writ of execution
issued, and at the end OF five
days put it in the sherif's hands
for service. Meantime Judge Williams
had obtained further five days stay OF
execution to set aside the default and file
an answer. Of this Attorney Bacon
failed to acquaint himself.
The sheriff served the writ, and poor old
Mrs. Gardner was evicted from her DWELL
ing and her goods and chattels piled
around her on the sidewalk. Yesterday
Judge Williams asked that his client be re-
possessed of her house, as she had title to
it. Attorney Bacon said, practically, her
title wasn't worth whoop. There being q
conflict of statements here, the wordy war;
fare began, and the court pelted both
counsel with heavyweight wordy on
slaught from the bench.
1t was finally ordered that Mrs. Gardner
be repossessed of her premises and that
the public administrator file a petition to
administer the estate.

OUT FOR A LARK
Precocious Quartet Arrested at the Rich
mond House

Precocious Quartet Arrested at the Rich-
mond House
quartet of precocious youngsters had q
bad hour yesterday afternoon, and the
valuable experience which they acquired
will be likely to last them for some time.
Detective Goodman and Officer Johnson
arrested the party. which comprised two
boys, some II or IS years old, and two
little girls. in a room in the Richmond
house, on Commercial street. They were
al to the station and questioned as to
the relations they had sustained.
1t appears that the hoys took their girls
to church at Whittier Sunday night, from
their homes near Norwalk. After services
were over all started out for lark and
drove to this city, where rooms were Sc
cured as above stated.
The boys claimed that three rooms were
occupied and that their relations with their
companions were perfectly proper. After
a severe cross examination all were al
lowed to GO EXCEPT the oldest girl, whose
mother sent word to hold her till she ar
rived. The other child. was in short
dresses and not over l 3 years of age. de-
parted with the boys, one OF whom is I'M
derstood to be her brother.
No names were given, but the trio will
probably long remember their little trip to

DOG OF THE IRON MASK.
Although Only an Aristocratic Statue IL
 Deceived the Street Mongrel.

A relative who lives in one of the one time fashionable mansions now be- come students boarding houses, in the south end, tells me a pretty good story of a dog, says a reporter for the Boston Post. In the yard, where a fountain was once known oplay, but where now dust gathers, is an iron statue of dog The iron dog watches and guards the old fountain, but he in. his turn has an admirer and adorer. The other day, hunting for another dog to go out and play tag with him, came a young street mongTel. He was unaccustomed to the ways of aristocracy, and in his simple ignorance supposed that any thing that looked like dog was a dog.
 Up to the statue he bounded barking

and wagging his tail. In stately im- mobility the iron dog gazed on out into vacancy. This did not deceive the other. He had seen plenty of dogs as sume just that naughty and abstracted manner when they did not care to fight. Wishing to show his iron friend that he appreciated his attitude, but assuring him of no evil intention, the dog from the street kept on barking and wagging his tail. He even ran around his friend a number of times to show that there was no ill-will-as is the manner of dogs. But the dog of the iron mask did not budge. My relative says that he is sure that even if the street dog had brought around a cat to chase the iron dog would have remained unmoved. A red Irish setter came out finally and called the street dog away. The latter went with distinct traces of reluctance in his manner. He liked the style of that iron dog and had rather play in his yard with him.

INDIAN STCtC:SM.s
Chectaw Works Right Up to the Day of
 His Execution,


 The stoicism of the North American Indian is proverbial. In the long ago when one tribe warred against another, Indian prisoners were accustomed to stand torture without finching. The race may have degenerated, but it's re- markable characteristic is still con- spicuous. A story told by western citizen to Washington Star reporter furnishes good illustration of the in difference with which even the Indian of to-day views death: "In the Choc- taw Indian nation there is no iail in which convicted murderers are con- fined" said he. When I first went to the Indian territory 1 settled in the Choctaw nation, and hearing that a cer- tain Indian was an excellent hand on the ranch, l hunted him up and asked him if he would work for me. T will work until the 20th of next month,' he said Why not longer?' l inquired. l am to be hanged the 21st,' was his re- ply, in an unconcerned way. 1 hired him, and upon inquiry learned that what he said was true. But one man has ever failed to return for hanging after he has been sentenced, and nv Indian did not prove an exception to the rule. On the day before the execu- tion was to take place he left as calmly as though going on visit, and the hang ing took place at the time appointed. Notwithstanding his approaching doom the Indian made one of the best ranch CTS 1 ever saw, and I regretted to lose him."
