PASADENA, Nov. 1.-The South
Pasadena board of education has re-
ceived word that the school bond elec-
tion held in that city some weeks ago
is not valid because of an error in post
Ing notices of the polling. The fault is
with deputy in the county superin-
tendents office and is through no mis-
take made by the local board. A new
election has been called for November
49,
This morning there was a fierce run
away along the most crowded section
of Colorado street. A Chinaman had
left team of horses standing with one
of the animals hobbled. The horse
broke his hobbies and the team dashed
along Colorado street for four blocks,
narrowly missing running down sew
eral pedestrians. Chauffeur Holmes, in
the employ of DR.. Schiffmann and A.
f, Hornung, ran out and at consider
able risk stopped the team Just as the
horses were about to dash through the
plate glass window of the philadelphia
Shoe company.
Fifteen youths were fined from 81 to
S. this morning by Police Judge Nc
Donald for Halloween fun last night.

PAY is REDUCED
Ocean Park Council Adopts Method to
Force Resignation of
Officer
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
OCEAN PARK, Nov 1.-The office Of
deputy marshal being an elective one
and the incumbent not being liable to
dismissal at the option of the city
council, that body apparently took pre-
cautions for any future emergency that
might arise when it fixed the salary of
the office at $40 per month.
Marshal Herzog had reason to think
so today when he learned that the al
lowance of 800 per month which he has
been receiving as garbage Inspector
had been withdrawn by the board at
the meeting when it was decided to
fire" his deputies and that beginning
with the month $40 was all for which
he was down on the city pay roll.
Herzog refused to make a statement,
further than to say that he would con-
suit an attorney for advice in the mat
ter.
Today the city has been patrolled by
four new men brought from Los An
geles last night and who it is said have
been guaranteed an increase over the
monthly wages of $65 which the dis
charged deputies received. The alleged
action of Policemen Cannon and Lee
ii swearing to charges rejecting on the
character of Mayor Burks and prom
inent citizens of this section has
brought forth little comment and no
credence.

Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
LONG BEACH, Nov. 1.-Joseph Nc
Kenzie, a plumbers apprentice, II years
old, was riding south on Walnut street,
between Anaheim road and Tenth
street, shortly before noon today when
a speeding tourist car going east on a
snort cross street struck the rear wheel
OF his bicycle. The boy was thrown
over the handle bars into the road,
where he lay in an unconscious condi-
tion for half an hour. The two men
who were in the automobile paid no at
tention to him and rode on their way,
not stopping to ascertain the extent of
his injuries.
When Mckenzie regained conscious
ness he was so dazed that he walked
north to Anaheim road instead of COM
ing toward town. A farmer driving to
town saw the boy pushing the wrecked
wheel along and after assisting him
into his wagon hauled him to the store
OF M. I. Owens. AL Pine avenue, where
he is employed.
The boys injuries were not severe.
The wheel was twisted and broken to
pieces and II is thought the automobile
ran over II. The boys employer has
offered to pay $15 reward for informa-
tion as to who the two autoists were
who left the lad lying senseless in the
street and made no attempt to assist
him.

The second batch went like proverbial
hot cakes and the delighted supporters

passing the papers about from hand
to hand and piling up votes for their
favorite by the hundreds.
This afternoon one of the leaders OF
the Hahn campaign freely admits that
his man Is now member of the Down
and Out club. This politician, said
freely that he Is ready to pay over
the money he has waged on the result,
for "Hahn could not afford to lose
even hundred votes, and he had lost
not a single hundred, but literally hun
dreds by those d letters"
No great robbery ever aroused as
much interest in Pasadena as did the
question of how the letters became
public. All sorts Of speculation, run
ing from the wild suggestion that the
Hahn Offices over the Union bank had
been burglarized to the equally alb
surd argument that Walter Parker had
made them public, were freely sug-
gested.
1t is rumored that the non-partsan
county committee has a sleeve filled
with such bombs for the senator and
it is noticeable that the senator's
friends had nothing whatever to say
about the matter save that it was all
right to ask and accept the pass.

o'clock this morning. and it came about
this way: Some Halloween joker tee-
phoned that a man had been badly in
jured on South Fair Oaks avenue by
being struck by a car. The police at
once went to the scene with a hand
stretcher and there they found a beau
tiful dummy dressed for the occasion.
Not to be outdone, the bluecoats
placed the figure on the stretcher, COW
cred 1t with q sheet and carried it to
the station house. There one of the
officers announced to the crowd of about
100 collected that the man was dead and
his name was unknown. docs anyone
want to try and identify the body?"
A number of people volunteered to
look at the dead man, and they were
accommodated, one at a time Nearly
100 were hoaxed, and the joke was too
good to keep.

FlNANcIER SEES GREAT
PROSPERITY FOR COUNTRY
BY THE nAvEsDROrPEn

Andrew r. Burleigh Of New Lork,
one Of Americas eminent attorneys
and fnanciers, is guest at tie Alex
andria. Mr.. Burleigh has come west to
investigate some large mining proper
ties, and as IL Is his first visit to South
ern California he Is combining busi-
ness with pleasure.
Mr. Burleigh's name Is best known
to Angelenos in connection with the
suit Of Edward Bluett and others
against Colgate Hoyt, a well known
Rockefeller man. The suit grew out
of mining interests in the west and
was q hotly contested legal battle,
finally ending in victory for Mr.. Bur-
leigh and his clients to the extent OF
100000 judgment.
Mr. Burleigh was appointed one Of
the receivers OF the Northern Pacific
at the time of the great financial panic
in 1898 and until September 1, 1896,
when the company was once more on
firm financial footing, he held this
position.
Finances in America have never
been in better condition than at pres
ent," said Mr.. Burleigh.
TN 1893 the gross earnings of the
Northern Pacific were sixteen million
dollars and last year they were sixty
million. 1t only goes to show what
vast change there has been in the
last few years. Since President Nc
Kinley entered the White House in
1896 the country has enjoyed marvellous
prosperity and there seems to be no
reason to fear that any change will
come. The panic of 1893 was a bad
one, but there Is nothing like 1t In
sight for the future
America is growing rich by leaps
and bounds. Ours is a country with
great history behind 1t and greater
history before 1t. In foreign financial
circles America stands supreme. She
has the best credit today of any nation
in the world and it looks as II there
could be no limit to her growth.
I'm New York the gubernatorial
fight is taking up the attention of
great many big men at present, and we
feel that much depends upon the cleo
tion Of Hughes. think the American
people can be depended upon and that
we need not fear that Mr.. Hearst will
win. Republicans are watching the
moves of Roosevelt, but I think 1t is
not likely he will mix in the state
campaign. Whenever a president has
| taken any part in state politics before.
| it has been disastrous and I think
Roosevelt Is too wise to interfere"
Mr.. Burleigh has host of friends in
Los Angeles and yesterday he was en-
tertained at luncheon at the Jonathan
club.

LONG BEACH, Nov. Halloween
observers captured a COW last night
and placed her on top of the city's
reservoir on Signal hill. The COW soon
broke loose from her moorings and
wandered about until she fell through
the planking into the water.
Her bawling attracted the attention
of residents of that locality and the
bovine was rescued with ropes after
considerable difficulty. Her owner ap-
peared before Justice Brayton this
morning and demanded that the youths
be arrested. Their names were not
known, however. and the justice is
waiting.
Another Halloween prank was the
turning in of false alarm at o'clock
this morning from a box at the cor
ner of Ocean and Magnolia avenues
The fire department answered the CALL
but were unable to learn who had
turned it in.

PASADENA, Nov. 1.-The first post
office in this section of the state, main
tanned during the last several years at
station of the local department, is to-
day abandoned because there is no
longer business to justify the branch.
The old office was located on South
Fair Oaks avenue. near the Hotel Ray
mond, and 1t has been many years since
that section was the headquarters for
the mail service
For sentimental reasons there has
been no recommendation from Post
master Wood to discontinue the office,
in spite of the rapidly decreasing BUSH
ness. The extension OF free delivery
and the encroachments Of the collection
of mail boxes has practically put the
branch out of business for several
years
Some days ago Grocer Twintng. who
had charge Ofsthe branch, decided that
sentiment or no sentiment the game
was not worth the candle, and he re-
signed. This resignation has at last
been accepted by Uncle Samuel, who
likewise has no sentiment, and the first

 Mr. Johnson sold the locker mining claim on which is situated the John son addition a little over a year ago to the ]. E. Thompson Co. since that time he has purchased lots on 1t and erected a number of buildings.
 When the J. M. Johnson block is completed he will have invested prae. tically all the money received for the claim on the lots he purchased. Upon Mir.

HARRIS CLAIMS HE WAS INTENDED v|CT|M
 Of POISONING

Charles Harris. tailor who resides in Tombstone Canyon in the vicinity of Castle Rock. is Investigating what he claims is an attempt, onI his life by poison The poison. which Harris says is responsible for deathly illness which evercame him and kept him confined to his bed for the past few days, he is positive is some subtle drug which was injected through the shells of eggs in his hennery. He lceks upon the attempt at poison as being aimed at his whole family.
 A few days ago Harris went to his hennery which is close to his house and procured some eggs for the table. When the eggs were served he noticed a strange substance. dark in color, in the white of the egg. He paid little attention to this, simply removing 1t before eating the food. He was soon seized with severe pains and deathly sickness which so overcame him that the services of doctor had to be ob- tained.
 Harris. after the examination, was told bythe physician that he was suffering undoubtedly from poisoning. but just what kind proved puzzle to the physician.
 He was able to be about the streets yesterday for the first time since he was taken i'll and is strong in his denunciation of those whom, he claims, are bound to take his life. He claims he has clue to the perpetrater of the act and if sufficient evidence can be secured, promises sensational arrest before many days are passed. He will not. however, diyulse the name of the party on whom his suspicious rest.
