An attempt to repress the encroach-

 rooms to prostitute, Odette Lambert,

 built a house across the street for a
 saloon. He was warned at the be- ginning that he would not be permit ted to rent rooms to fallen women
 He pleaded guilty and was fined.
 Frank Faure, charged with being this
 woman'S lover, was convicted and fined S60. He gave notice Of appeal

 tified that they must move into the

 The board of supervisors yesterday paid a claim of H. L. Betz for care and attention given an indigent tramp whom he found lying beside the $. F. P. & P. track with both ankles broken, couple of weeks ago. He brought him down and put him in the hos pital. This tramp and another had gotten on the cowcatcher at some point on the road. They selected this rather perilous location for three reasons. One was that they might have clear and Unobstructed view of the country Another was that they might not be annoyed by smoke from the locomotive, but the third and most cogent was that they might not incur the ill will of the trainmen. Or the cowcatcher is safe enough to ride on for in ninety-nine trips cut of hundred it doesn't have any thing to do. But this was the hund- redth time and the cowcatcher had business on hand. The business was a big steer which stood on the track aud was foOlhardy enough to stand there iu spite Of the shrill warning of the whistle. The tramps saw what was about to come to pass and one of them fiattened himself out against the head of the locomotive to await the impact. The other tramp had no place of refuge, and when the steer got aboard the catcher, he was crowd ed off. There wasn't room enough for so many passengers.

J. S. ANDERSON ACQUITTED.
The Jury Found a Verdict in Ten
 Minutes.

The trial of John s. Anderson, charged with complicity with his son, Josiah Anderson, and James Kerrick in an assault upon John M. Mullen with intent to commit murder, was con- cluded yesterday afternoon, resulting in acquittal. The jury announced within half an hour after retiring that it had agreed upon a verdict and it was stated afterward that the agree ment was really reached within ten minutes. It was almost a foregone conclusion after all the evidence was in that the defendant would be ac- quilted The prosecuting. witness himself stated that at the time the Anderson was aware of his presence He had testified that when the row was under way he had called to ker- i rick to shoot his horse and then they would have him. Anderson said his meaning was misunderstood. He said that after a shot had been fired by some one in the brush wounding his son, he called to his son to shoot the horse, thereby marking it so they could afterward learn who it belonged ! to. lie testified that he had not then seen Mr. Mullen and did not see him ! CT anybody else at that time and place. 1 He also testified that neither he nor Kerrick was armed. After the shoot ! ing began he went to the house of a man named Whitney to borrow a re- 1 volver, but the owner refused to let him have 1t.
 One point strongly brought out by Judge Baker in his argument before the jury was that Anderson was act ing wholly in self defense. Admit ting that Josiah Anderson might have been guilty of assault the fact which had been brought out that the defend ant did not see the first shot fired, bu
 rode up and inquired what was tho matter. Judge Baker said it was quite
 natural for him to imagine that {
 deadly assault had been made upor
 his son and that it was within his
 right under the law of self defense ts attempt to repel whoever he nigh
 believe to be the aggressor. Thi:
 view of it was incorporated into thi
 courts instructions to the jury. Or
 the announcement of the verdict, tht
 charge against Kerrick was dismissed
 on the motion of Assistant Distric
 Attorney Bullard The evidence 1T
 the two Anderson cases showed tha
 he was not only unarmed, but tha
 he had less to do with the affair thai
 either of the others.
