washed himself and then returned to
his room. The walls and bathroom
were spattered with blood. In his
room an unsigned note vas found al

while belated pedestrian, staggering
along under a heavy cargo Of liquor,
wandered into their midst and depart
ed screaming for help, with his coat
half eaten from his back.
Just as the sun peeked into the city
from the Whittier hills Thursday morn
ing the residents of the neighborhood
were startled by a long drawn out bray
In satisfaction.
Since that time the bray has been an
innocent reminder of the presence of
the burros and warrants charging dis
turbance of the peace we're applied for,
but were denied.
Women found the clothes eaten from
the washlines. Others were startled to
find their tin washpans and granite
tubs chewed up. For the burros were
desert bred and hungry and a hungry
burro is not particular.
But at last the deadly tetanus from
the rusted wire got In It's work on two
of the animals and they were found by
the humane officers in a pitiable con-
dtion.
Two of the burros were destroyed and
"Rojer," the leader. and the remaining
five lassoed and taken to feed yard
to be cared for in proper style. The
owners of the animals, o. Vessel Of
Hewitt street and Joseph Heutman OF
East First street, were arrested and
will be tried on a charge of cruelty to
animals, but the residents of the Rio
street neighborhood will long remem-
