HE STEALS CLOTHES
Ellsworth Has An Affection for Other
Peoples Wearing Apparel

E. Ellsworth, if all said about him is
true, has very decided penchant for
clothes of all descriptions, be they suits
of clothes, bed clothes. or any old clothes.
Moreover, he is not particular as to who
they belong to.
George Hull, who lives on Victor street,
hung out a suit of clothes and an over
coat on a line in his yard, and then re-
tired TO mediate. When the medita tions
were over he discovered that the suit
Of clothes and the overcoat were gone.
From the next house large featherbed
and the accompanying coverlets were
missing. Next census of the dwell
ings' in the neighborhood showed that the
interloper had made away with choice
and varied collection of milk cans of
assorted shapes and. sizes.
A neighbor of Mr.. Hull's had that day
killed two hogs and had hung them
over night in his back yard. Ellsworth's s
partner, whose name is at present un-
known, induced the dead hog to accom-
pany him, taking at the same time a set
Of harness, presumably to drive the de-
ceased porker. Detectives Auble and
Hawley were put on the. case and sue
ceeded in tracing the first offenses to
Ellsworth, whom they arrested early yes
terday afternoon, charging him with
petit larceny The hog thief is still at
large with his ill-gotten booty.

FAILURE FOLLOWED FAST
Mary Barron's Successful Start in
a Career of Crime

Mary Barron, by trade a domestic, is
by profession something of a larcenist.
Last June she was employed in a house
at the corner of Grand avenue and Pico
street In the house was lady named
Miss Vestal. During Miss Vestals sick
ness, the Barron woman is alleged to
have entered the dresser of the former,
and to have taken therefrom a
dress skirt a dress and several articles
of underwear, leaving in exchange her
own cast off clothes. Clad in her newly
acquired finery, Mary Barron then went
to Santa Monica, and there it is said
she pre-empted some jewelry to Which
she had no particular claim. Charmed
with her success and signing for new
fields to conquer, Mary Barron then went
to Arizona. hiring out as a domestic
Watching her opportunity she laid vio-
lent hands upon a purse containing 500
and some jewelry. This time, however,
she was caught but since she agreed to
return everything taken she was not
prosecuted. The police of Los Angeles
were communicated with, and when the
woman returned here she was met by
Detectives Auble and Hawiey, whom she
accompanied to the Jail. In her posses
sion were found the clothes stolen from
Miss Vestal, though the jewelry taken at
Santa Monica was missing. The Barron
woman was given into the care of Mrs.
Gray the police matron.

surveyor, which Is presumed to be suf-
ficient to handle all the business of said
office. 1t may be that the force is made
quate, and that in large county like
our own more men skilled to the pro-
fessjcn of civil engineering should be
placed at the disposal of the county sur
veyor and a means provided for their
payment, but, IL so, the eminent legis-
lators were undoubtedly ignorant of the
needs of the county, for they have plain
ly not provided for the employment of
extra surveyors to meet the calls for the
Increased work required of the surveyor
of the county. If the surveyor finds that
the work is greater than his force Is ca
pable of handling, some work must, of
necessity, through no fault of his, go
neglected
Neither can the expense of employing
extra surveyors be justified under the
clause allowing the surveyor "all neces-
sary expenses and transportation. for
work performed in the field" Those ex-
penses may be for car fare. chainmen.
etc., but cannot be stretched to include
the services of a regular surveyor of
such competency as is required for pub
lie work or any extra surveyor at all.
In our opinion, therefore, expense in
CURED by the county surveyor in en-
ploying extra civil engineers to make
surveys is not legal charge against the
county.

THE ANTELOPE VALLEY
Its Detractors Silenced by the Cror
Showing

The Antelope Valley and adjacent re-
gions is oft times jokingly alluded to as
the abiding place of "yaps' and full
blown "hayseeds." and locally it has been
made to figure as Nazareth from out of
which no good could come
This section of the county is in the
Fifth Supervisorial district, and yester-
day Supervisor Hanley had the laugh on
his side when he received letter from
Road Foreman George S. Weinshank, at
Lancaster. Some complaints had. been
made regarding the bad state of the road
running from Lancaster to Neenach, and
passing through Del Sur Mr.. Wein-
shank conceded the rather bad state of
the road but he said that the farmers in
that section had hauled out to date Is, 900
sacks of wheat and had it all safely
warehoused. That fact without any
comment is explanation sufficient why
country road is cut up. But that is not
all, for there is more hauling to be done.
and so while the road may be bad the
Antelope Valley shows TO good advantage
as a producer

ZANJA MATTERS
Irrigators Protest Against Scarcity
of Water

Several indignant ranchers of the an
nexed section were yesterday afternoon
given a hearing by the zarj ja committee
on the subject of water-or rather lack
of water in this section. 1t appeared
from the statements made by several of
the protestants that their berry patches,
orchards and, gardens were suffering
for water and that although they had
notified the zanjero he seemed unable
to remedy the matter. On occasions
for hours at time they could not get
a drop of water, and they asked, if pos
slble, to have this condition remedded
Water Overseer Casey was present
ard explained that while he had done
the best he could. in the matter, for rea-
sons which he had already brought to
the attentions of the council there wasno
enough water to go around. Ore cause
of the stoppage of the flow at times is
