PASADENA, Nov. 14.-Richard Lu-
cas- of III South Raymond avenue was
seriously injured this evening by be-
ing struck by a south bound car on the
Pacific Electric railroad in this city.
Lucas is employed in Los Angeleo and
was returning from his work there.
On alighting at Congress street he
walked around the back of the car and
right in the way of a south bound car
which he did not know was coming.
He was knocked down, one arm fraG-
tured and his body badly bruised. Dr.
Avery, the companys surgeon in South
Pasadena, attended the man and stated
that while his injuries were of painful,
character they were not dangerous.
1t is claimed that the injured man was
not warned of the approach of the
south bound car as has been the Gus
tom of conductors on the road and that
the south bound car was not making
the required signals Whether or not
this is true can not be ascertained.
Jamaica Oranges and Scale
Pasadena orange growers say that
they are not at all worried over the
report that Jamaica oranges are find
ing ready sale along the Puget Sound
to the exclusion of fruit from South
GIIl SdlllOIIlld. -. a. lay lHt NGll
known horticulturist speaking of the
report said today: Yes, Puget Sound
and San Francisco have not only been
getting oranges from Jamaica, but they
have also been getting the purple scale,
which is one of the worst enemies to
this fruit that we have to contend
with. Jamaica oranges find a tempo
rary market in the north because our
growers are getting big prices in the
east for their latp V11pnpi1S and he
cause our navel oranges are a little
late"
A Peculiar Accident
Frank Reynolds, son of Policeman
Reynolds, sustained a severe fracture
of his left arm and a dislocation of a
knee joint this evening while playing
baseball. The young man was run
ming to catch a ball when he Slipped
and fell to the ground. When he at
tempted to rise he suddenly discover
ed that his leg was out of joint at
the knee and useless. But he had
raised himself partially to his feet be-
fore he made the discovery and in the
fall which followed he fractured mis-
arm also. Young Reynolds has sus-
tanned number of similar dislocations
and fractures during the past few
years and seems peculiarly subject TO
such accidents. He is suffering con-
siderable pain tonight and DR.. New
comb, who is attending him, says that
his hurts are unusually severe.
City Treasurer Has Inning
The meeting of the city council to-
day was a busy one although the bulk
of the business transacted had to do
with street improvements about the
city. Among other matters the little
misunderstanding between Auditor
Kernaghan and Treasurer Munson
came in for an airing and this time the
councilmen were not so prompt in sup
porting the ruling of the auditor. AS
before the lynx-eyed auditor refused
to allow all of the treasurer's salary for
the reason that daily returns of collec-
tions had not been made during the
entire month. The council promptly
referred the matter to the finance
committee for investigation, which in
dicates that the genial city treasurer
is about to have his inning.
Owes State 5000
Justice Klamroth today imposed
fine of 5000 upon Robert Kessner, the
San Fernando restaurant keeper found
guilty in this city last week of selling
Intoxicating liquors illegally. Kess-
ner was tried for selling "Ino" and the
evidence tending to show that "Ino"
was beer under another label the jury
found him guilty as charged. He gave
notice through his attorney of an ap-
peal and was permitted to give bond
in the sum of $400, with George Zobe-
lein of Los Angeles as his surety.
