NO FIESTA THIS YEAR

nous RESOLUTIONS TO Indt EHecC
The committee of thirty of La Fiesta
met yesterday afternoon at head

presented from the executive commit

executive committee was empowered to
take the necessary steps to close up all
business.
"Whereas, The Southern California
Railway company and the Southern Pa

clined to contribute toward the cost OF
a fiesta for 1898.
"Whereas, The Los Angeles (street)
Railway company has expressed an un-
willingness to subscribe unless the above
named railway companies reconsider
their refusal.
Whereas, 1t is certain that the mora
effect of the failure Of these great cor
porations to contribute or promise sup

greatly benefited by fiesta), would
have a depressing effect on efforts tc
secure liberal subscriptions in other di-
rections.

SALOON MEN IN COURT
All but One of the Sunday Selling
Gases Continued

Eleven saloon keepers were in the city
justice courts yesterday to answer
charges of either keeping their places
of business open and selling drinks on
Sunday or after midnight, in violation of
the saloon closing ordinance. They had
been arrested from time to time, since
the police begun their crusade against
them, and have been strictly enforcing
the ordinance. Most of them had been
in court before and all of the cases had
been passed until yesterday, the inten-
tion being to try one and let the others
depend upon the result of that trial. For
some reason this plan was not followed.
1t is understood that some of the saloon
men did not agree with others as to who
shuld be retained as counsel, so the
plan was abandoned and each decided
TO defend his own case.
Under these circumstances but one of
the defendants was ready for trial, and
the others demanded continuances of
their cases. The one exception was w.
II. Virgins, and he was found guilty of
having violated the ordinance. He will
be present in court today for sentence.
| Just what that sentence will be is, of
course, unknown, but as there has been
no effort heretofore to enforce the or
dinance, it is expected that in these
first cases only a nominal fine will be i'm
posed. The purpose of these prosecu-

FIRST STREET PAVING
A Big, Expensive and Tedious Job Is
Finally Completed

The assessment and diagram Of the
district affected by the repaving of First
street, from Main street to Santa Fe ave-
nue., was yesterday completed in the Of
flee of the street superintendent. There
have been 135,177.S3 square feet of pave
ment laid, the contract price for which
is SIT 7,39S.4S, which is due the Alcatraz
Asphalt company. The levying and
mapping of the district of as
sessment has been one of the
biggest and most exasperating jobs
ever completed in the Office, for the rea-
son that neither the city nor county as
SCISSORS books or maps showed the
property lines to compare, and it be-
came necessary to have the city engin-
eer resurvey the whole district. The sur
vey in many cases showed that the lines
were inches and feet from the proper
locations. However, all difficulties have
been overcome and property owners
can now pay up.

SIGNALS AND PIGEONS
INTERESTING EXHIBITION AT
THE NEW ARMORY
Carrier Pigeon Messages Returned to
the Senders by Heliograph-Flags
and Flashlights Also Used

One of the most interesting parts of
the weeks celebration of the opening of
the new armory of the First brigade, N.
G. c., was the exhibition yesterday af-
ternoon and evening of the work of the
signal corps. Military drills, dress uni
forms, the evolutions of the regiment
and many other military matters are so
common that the public is familiar with
lie is given an opportunity to witness
practical demonstration of the work
done by the signal department of any
command. Perhaps it was because that
this work was new to the friends of
the brigade that such a large crowd as
sembled at the armory yesterday to see
what the corps had to show. What
they saw was new to most of them and
interesting to all, demonstrating just
what work the signal department was
expected to perform in active service.
On the roof of the new armory can
vas awning had been placed overhead
and chairs provided for the guests, of
whom there were several hundred. A de-
tail from the corps was stationed there,
equipped with their photographs and
other apparatus. Another detail was
stationed on the roof of the residence
of o. F. Zahn, near the normal school
building, half a mile away. For the
purpose of showing the visitors how the
signalling was done, and also that there
were no prepared messages, this plan
was followed:
Mr.. Zahn who owns some of the finest
carrier pigeons in this part of the coun-
| try, had loaned a number of them to
the soldiers, and they We're taken to the
roof of the armory. Some of the ladies
present were asked to write messages
and number them, but to say nothing to
the members of the corps as to their con-
| tents. These messages were attached
| to the pigeons, one at time, and the
birds were released. OF course. they
went directly to their lofts at Mr.. Zahn's
residence, and the messages were read
by the detail of the corps stationed there.
This detail at once flashed back the
message to the armory by means of
the heiograph, giving the number of
each message. These were compared
with copies which the ladies who
wrote them had retained. Throughout
the entire afternoon not one mistake was
made. While the messages were being
sent the members of the command ex-
planned the meaning of the different
signals. After the exhibition on the
roof of the armory the guests were
shown the quarters Of the various COM
panies.
Last night in the drill room there was
another interesting exhibition. Signals
were exchanged across the hall by means
of the flashlight, electric lights being
used to give the flashes. All OF the night
apparatus used in signalling was ex-
planned and used.

BUNCO MEN RELEASED
Disappearance of Their Victim Made
Conviction Impossible

| John Howard and William Dale, the
alleged bunco sharps, who were ar
rested early in December on charge of
conspiring to cheat and defraud, were
discharged from custody so far as that
charge is concerned in the police court
Yesterday. There is, however, another
charge against each of the men, and
| these cases were indefinitely postponed
This termination of the cases was all
that could be brought about by the dis
trict attorney, for the man the men
are accused of robbing has disappeared
and without him it was of course impos
sible to even prove that any person had
lost anything.
Howard and Dale are members of the
notorious gang of sharps which has in
tested the city for months and whose
leader is supposed to be Poker Davis.
Numerous as have been the operations
of this gang, one after another member
has been caught and sent to the peni-
tentiary, and others have been forced to
leave the city. With these two men
the prosecution thought it had strong
case, and it would have had could their
alleged victim have been induced to re-
main here and testify against them.
j. c. Johnson, an Arizona man, came
here early in December, and after spend
ing several days in the city, was prepar-
ing to go north, when he met Howard
and Dale. They induced him to enter
the Davis joint on Spring street, and
there by means of a game they secured
$3.50 of the visitors money. He at once
complained to the police and the men
were arrested. The case was continued
at their request from time to time, and
each time johnson was on hand. AT the
last calling of the case before yesterday,
however, he was not in court, and the
detectives We're unable to find him.
They were informed that he had left
| the city for his home and would not re-
turn. Then the prosecution continued
the cases, and endeavored to secure
Johnson's attendance, but were unable
| to do so. There was nothing else to do
when the case came up yesterday but
to dismiss one of the charges, and that
was done.

The special election yesterday in the
Seventh ward for the purpose of filling

This Indifference may be accounted for
by the fact that there was only one can

Ing these so-called rabid animals 1t Is

DR.. Walter Lindley, who has practiced

that to the best of their knowledge
there has never been an actual case OF
hydrophobia in Los Angeles, but they

time, as 1t frequently does, spon-
taneously, in districts not previously
infected. Several prominent veterin-
arians, upon being interviewed, think
that although there have been no cases
thus far proven absolutely to be rabies.
yet it would be just as well to provide
against its advent.
The terms rabies and hydrophobia are
virtually synonymous. With human
beings hydrophobia is invariably inocu-
lated into the system by the bite Of
some raving animal. The time neces-
sary for manifestation after incubation
varies greatly; as rule it Is about three
to six months, but cases have been re-
ported Of longer or shorter duration.
One form of rabies known as pseudos
or false rabies, and attended by terrible
suffering, has been frequently identified
with the regular virulent form. though
| 1t does not result fatally.
