BAND DISPUTE ON AGAIN
New Proposition Brought Forward at
Long Beach by DonateIIi's
Manader
Special to The Herald.


LONG BEACH. Dec. Manager
Gattone of the Donatelli band now
comes forward with a new proposition
toward band support. Recently he
thought that a Saturday night dance in
the convention hall would be all that
could be desired, but the half of the
population of Long Beach that could be
termed as non-liberal held their hands
so high in their horror at the idea of a
dance in the $4,000 auditorium that he
has suggested another proposition, and
will relegate all the dances to the sun
paVilion, 1900 feet from the shore at
the end of the pier.
1t required desperate measures on the
part of one or two members of the
board of trustees to carry measure in
that body permitting the Saturday
dance. At the meeting of the council at
which the measure was passed G. j.
Walker, a prominent citizen, leading
member of the Methodist church and
otherwise well known here, was present
and objected strongly to the action. He
even threatened to withdraw his
monthly subscription of $50 to the sup
port of the band should even monthly
dance be given in the convention hall.
But Trustee Oakford stood up for
what he believed to be a businesslike
scheme that would mean the retention
of the Donatelli band in Long Beach
and replied to Mr.. Walkers arguments
with equal force. When the vote was
taken the trustees lined up three to two
on the proposition. Those in favor were
Trustees Campbell, Oakford and Losee
Against Trustees Emo and Cate.
Exactly what the new idea is has not
been made public, but it has received
the sanction of the board of trade and
will be put forward by that body. In
the meantime Long Beach Its back and
awaits developments.
The big dredge built by the North
western Dredging company for the Los
Angeles Dock and Terminal company
has arrived and is now lying near the
mouth of the river.
A board Of trade committee to take
up the question of the Pacific boulevard
in conjunction with the standing COM
mittee of citizens has been announced
by President Hatch as follows: L. A..

RECLUSE BURNED TO DEATH
Odd Character at Santa Barbara Be-
lieved to Have Met Horrible

Special to The Herald.
SANTA BARBARA, Dec. 1.-The
charred remains of John Harrington
were found at the door of his hovel
near the city dump grounds early this
morning, and the supoSition Is that
he met death during the night as the
result of having his clothes burned
from him while in a drunken stupor.
Harrington is Familiarity known as
THE king of the city dump" He
has lived here several years and has
had charge of the dumping grounds,
living near them in rough structure
made of waste material gathered from
the dumps He lived there in two
small rooms and picked up a. scanty
living by doing odd jobs. 1t was ru-
mored that he was a miser and had
large treasures stored in his shack,
but this is not credited by those who
knew him best.
1t is believed that Harrington met
his death while sleeping off Thanks
giving spree Near him was found an
empty whisky flask. He probably
came home late at night and built
a hot fire in the CRATE and then fell
asleep near the fire which caught his
clothing and enveloped him in flames
before he awoke and crawled from his
hut only to die near the door. The
building did not catch fire. A coro-
ner's jury met this morning and
brought in a verdict of accidental
death.

Jones, who recently with James Mar
tin tunneled out of the county Jail,
expecting to make their escape. but
instead fell into the hands of officers
are now on trial in the superior court
charged with Jail breaking. Martin re-
Gently pleaded guilty and is expected
to testify against his fellows.
After the men were recaptured James
Martin made a confession stating that
he had dug the tunnel and the other
three were in no way to be blamed for
it. 1t soon developed that before max
ing their break for liberty the men
drew straws, the man drawing the
longest straw agreeing to make a con-
fession of guilt as to digging the tun-
mel If they were recaptured. Martin got
the straw and made the confession, but
it is said has since made up his mind
that he does not care to stand alone
the punishment for the job that the
others are equally guilty of, though he
pleaded guilty in the superior court.

they accidentally met here, which
started the Investigation by the Off
