PAYS OTHERS FINES
BECAUSE ONCE IN JAIL
FRANK HAMICH PLAYS GOOE
SAMARITAN
He Secures the Release of Two
Strangers From City BastiIe That
They May Add to His Joy in Cee-
bratng independence Day

Because he had to serve one day in
Jail for being drunk in 1897, Frank Har-
nick yesterday paid 50 in order that
two men who were serving time for
being drunk might be released from the
city Jail to join in the celebration Of
the Fourth.
Harnick drives a wagon for the
Thomas Feed and Fuel company. He
appeared at the police station yesterday
afternoon and told the desk sergeant
that he wanted to pay somebody's fine.
The sergeant asked him whose fine he
wished to pay and the reply was that
it didn't make any difference.
A. Gotta and Mike Whalen were given
a three days Jail sentence by Police
Judge Chambers last Tuesday for being
drunk. In lieu of the one day which
they had not served Harnick paid 81
for each of the men.
"Why do you desire to get some one
out of jail?' was asked of Harnick.
"Well, you know, L was in jail once
and | know how it seems. / got drunk
in Kansas City in 1897 and created a
disturbance in my room. They locked
me up for a day and l realize how it
feels to be cooped up. How much worse
it must be when everybody else is out
having q good time"
This is the second time In two weeks
that Harnick has secured the release
of men. The first time he paid fine
for man so that he could get out and
return home before the Fourth.

LONG BEACH, July 4.-There was
never before such a throng in this city
of the seashore as today, say the
Oldest Of 'oldtimers.' The number of
visitors has been variously estimated
at from 10000 to 10000. A figure half
way between these two would probably
approximate the exact number, it is
said.
There were numerous and varied di-
versions and all were popular. In the
parade, which moved through the busi-
ness streets at 10:30 o'clock this morn
ing, headed by the city officials and Of
ficers of the chamber of commerce,
there were several creditable floats and
large number of handsomely decorat-
ed automobiles.
The prize for the est-decorated car
was awarded to Captain A. w. McDon-
nell.
The crowds that had watched the
parade at once headed for the end of
the pier, where they augmented the
throng that had gathered to watch the
launch races.
AS the noon hour approached there
was a great spreading of basket din
ners, on the benches of the outer wharf
on the deck under the auditorium, ond
on the grass of the city park. The
restaurants and Understands did ca
pacity business.
In the afternoon, those who did not
watch the yachts, took in the sports OF
the younger generation including sack
races, potato races, a pie-eating con-
test and the other historic Fourth of
July contests.
The Pomona High school cadets also
gave an attractive drill on Pine avenue
during the afternoon. Dances were
hold L.,
both afternoon and night. They were
largely attended, mostly by out t-of-town
folk. The two skating Kinks were well
patroni2ed, also, day and night.
The beach and ocean, as usual, were
the most popular with the visitors from
the inland. The surf, both east and
west of the pier, was thronged with
merry, shouting youngsters and their
elders. The beach and the pike were
literally jammed, morning until night
The day was, essentially, a noisy one
From sunrise, when the Sons of Vet
erans pet cannon doomed a salute

The night was made beautiful by a
fine display of fireworks on the sea
There were bombshell rockets, willow

favorably commented upon by visitors

absence of serious accidents.

and made wild dash into the house,
Jumped into the fireplace, climbed up
through the nue and out of the chimney
a distance of three stories.
on seeing that the dog was frightened
the members of the family followed
her into the house. The mufTled growls
of the dog were heard but for some
time could not be located. Suddenly
pieces of plaster, heavily coated with
SCOT began to tumble down the lue and
out on the carpet of the room.
Although the different members Of
the family did not believe that the dog
was in the flue, the falling Of the plas-
ter prompted an investigation and the
dog was found to be making its way to
the top Of the chimney.
All efforts to call the dog back were
