HOLDUP AT PROSPECT PARK
Three Men Unmasked Scare the POST
master and StOrekeeper
The Amount Taken Was Small, Amounting to
S5o-The Victim Has But Poor De-
scription OF the 1en

The store in which is located the post
office at Prospect Park, near Hollywood,
in the Cahuenga valley, was robbed last
night at about 8 o'clock.
at that hour three unmasked men came
into the store and asked for dimes worth
of crackers. These were done up in a
package and handed to the man who gave
the order.
The latter then flourished six-shooter
and demanded the contents of the money
drawer. The money was promptly handed
over to the man.
The storekeeper, who also is the post
master, was next ordered to open the safe.
Hestancy, with guns leveled upon him
was out of the question, and so the safe
was opened and the cash transferred to the
pockets of the hold-ups.
The entire loss amounts to about $50,
mostly postoffice money.
Despite the fact that the three men were
undisguised, the description of the men
as given by the scared storekeeper and
postmaster is but very poor-so poor in
deed, as to be almost useless to the deputy
sheriffs who were apprised of the robbery.

A NEW MARKET DISCOVERED
Oil Exchange People in a Happy Frame
1ird

Oil Exchange People in Happy Frame o
Hind
The secretary of the Oil exchange. Ma
ior Cochran, wore a very happy air yester-
day, for he claimed to have some private
information which was to the effect that
one of the largest manufacturing concerns
on the coast had determined to use oil for
fuel instead of coal. This institution, he
said, would be furnished by the Los Ange-
les producers. This is only one indication
as to how the demand for oil will be en-
larged in short time, and for this reason
il is doubly gratifying.
The oil men are all counting Oh the mass
meeting to be held Monday evening at the
rooms of the oil exchange, as certain to ac-
complish great deal if the meeting is a
success in the point of members in attend
ance. The importance of the issue at
stake is certainly known to all we'll owners,
and every one that can possibly be there
should be on hand.
Owing to the rain, it has become neces-
sary to suspend operations on number of
the wells in the local oil field. Still there
are enough in operation to more than sup
ply the market demand.
In the Summerland oil district in Santa
Barbara there are fifty-fve surface wells,
and new ones are being put down every
day.
The oil we'll at Ocean Beach, San Diego
county, is down 800 feet. If necessary it
will be put down to depth of 1000 feet,
and then il no oil is struck the drill will be
taken out and sunk in another locality.

The Oueen,a CnIlies

Her majesty has many dogs, and the
collies are the favorites. 1t is pointed out
that in the only picture in which the queen
appears with dog there are three collies.
Her majesty christens all the dogs herself,
and the original bearers of many of the
names were gifts from the district of Bal
moral. No puppy born in the royal ken
nels is allowed to be destroyed, the queen
holding herself, as it were, responsible for
the lives of all the little strangers within
her gates," and extending her protection
to them all alike. If any difference be
made at all among the dogs, it is that,
while most have names, there are some
that go to their graves without one.
Among the colored collies the queens
favorite is Darnley ii. In color he is black
and sable, relieved by the snowiest of COL
lars and ruffs, white legs, and white tip to
brush. He was presented to her majesty
by the Rev. Hans Hamilton. Darnley IL.
is quite of the latter day stamp and type of
collie-a nice. long head. with sem-erect
ears, and one of the smartest of his breed
at Windsor. Whenever the queen comes
to the kennels, Darnley is asked for, and
is brought out to show himself and-good

Americans Abroad

"Diamond Daisy Millers." The Anglo
American hotels in Paris overflow with
them. Tens, twenties of pretty girls in
faultless Partisan toilets, many of them in
their teens, one and all displaying dia-
monds enough to set up an actress, one
and all speaking-but no! let me allude to
a more general topic. Many family par
ties one sees-fathers and sons dressed ac-
cording to the last new fashion in male at
tire, and the sociableness among these fell
low travellers is gratifying TO witness. I
was much struck by the surprise of a
French friend at this trait of national
character. After the table d'hote dinner
of favorite hotel, the company-save for
myself and friend entirely trans Atlantic
broke up into cheerful little groups, lagh-
ing and chatting over the experiences Of
the day. The Frenchman observed to me !:
'You would never find such good-fellow-
ship among my OVID people thrown together
in foreign country. Instead of seeking,
we avoid each other under such circum-
stances. / must say what have seen to-
night gives me a very favorable impression
of the American character. And if these
young girls while here spend their time in
shopping and frivolity, doubtless they are
ready enough to enter upon the serious
business of life on their return home."

restaurant man for $1.70, and he was ar
rested. He soon acknowledged the check
he tried to pass was not good. He gave the
name of D. V. Esmond, as the check was
signed, but his linen is marked III. ID.
and papers found indicate that his name is
II. Dean.
Among his papers were many blank
checks from banks III different cities. On
the Grangers' Bank of California he had a
check dated January I'd for $2520, appar-
emily signed by the Winchester Arms COM
pany through G. Ross. This was made
payable to H. Dean and was certified with
the fcrger's clever pen and rubber stamp.
On the Union Bank of Montreal he had a
$50 check payable to himself.
Esmond is about % years old, weighs
about 100 pounds and speaks French and
Spanish fluently. He says he has wife
and two hildren, but does not know where
they are.

SAN Francisco, Jan. 1S,-Chief OF De-

HI. Dean, arrested at Utica for forgery,is not
the Dean who vctimized the Nevada bank
out of $4,000 by means of forged draft.
Lees says the Dean who operated here is
small man while the Utica Dean is over
six feet tall and in no way answers the de-

THE STORM in THE NORTH
Has Caused Some Damage and More Is
Feared
The nost Serious Losses are Those Suffered
by Reason Of Railroad Washouts
and Landslides

NAPA, Jan. 1S.-The severity of the
rainstorm has caused iiome Inconvenience
here and the river still overflows it's banks
in some places which are especially low.
The rainfall here during last night was
1.75 inches, while in the upper end of the
valley at St. Helena and Calistoga nearly
twice that much water fell in the same
time. This caused the water to flow over
the track at krug's station, above St. Hell
ena, and caused a delay of two hours in
the coming of the southbound train this
morning. All trains are running on time
tonight. 1t is reported that twelve inches
of rain have fallen in ST. Helena during
the week. The river is falling now. and as
very little rain fell today, no fear is now
felt of any damage.
Redding-The storm has abated and a
strong wind has been blowing from the
west. The river is very high, the waters
submerging the electric light and water
company's works, with the result of no
light nor water.
The Iron Mountain railroad is in bad
condition. The rain thoroughly soaked the
earth, and there are numerous slides all
along the line, with culverts stopped up
and the roadbed washed away. The COM
pany was expecting to start up furnace
at Keswick with charge of ore in few
days, but the storm will set them back a
month at least.
Overland trains have been late on ac-
count of high water and slides. The rain
fall is almost up to the figure of last season
at the same date.
Clovedale-The rain storm has bee n terrif-
ic for six days, with precipitation of 1910
inches. Much damage is reported from
high water. The valley land Of the Turner
ranch was severely cut by the flood, and
many roads are impossible. The Parker
Vineyard company has suffered the heavi-
est loss. The Stone winery was constructed
along a side hill, which became so saturated
it slid, collapsing the building. The wine
was moved to an adjoining building pre-
paratory to shipment, and was not caught
in the avalanche.
Stockton-There is no high water here.
abouts and the steamers had only
eight inches more of water to
ride out on this evening. The
streams do not show much rise and will
tains. The rainfall here up to the close OF
the storm this afternoon was 2.42 inches
for the month, making 5.57 inches fol-
the season against 14.S0 inches last year
The rainfall last night and today meas
ured 6S-1OO of an inch. 1t is the most
beneficial storm seen here in many years
and has made farming prospects almost
sure. The storm seems to be at an end.

SAN Francisco, Jan. 1S.-The Palo Alto
stakes for three-year-olds and upwards
and the two-year-old race were the features
at Inglesde today. Pat Dunne's colt,
Pepper, was thought to have the stake at
his mercy and was a heavily played favor
ite at even money. Gallant and Cadmus
the Spreckels pair, coupled were at 8 to
l, Cabrillo and Thornhill at 6 and Olive,
Highland and Wheel of Fortune at 10,
with Roma the only outsider at 60 to l..
Gallant jumped into the lead and inn
mediately opened gap of half a dozen
lengths, which position he maintained
until the end, winning as he pleased with
the others beaten away off. Cadmus came
fast at the end and it looked as il the
Spreckel's pair ran one, two, but Pepper
was awarded the place.
Walter Hobart's Coupon is unquestion-
ably the fastest two-year-old turned out
this year, as for the second time he gal
loped away from his field in hollow
fashion. Coupon has started but twice
and has defeated all the two-year-olds at
the track.
Green B. Morris turned loose his Ameri-
can derby winner, Strathmeath, in the last
race, the old horse galloping in with the
juicy odds of B to l against him. Braw
Scot finished second in the race, but was
disqualified for foul.

ming favorites, the remaining events fall
ing to the lot of two outsiders and one
third choice.
