CARRIE BRICE WRITES A
LETTER TO MAYOR SCHMITZ
Wants Information of n Friend and
Would Like to Have
Bill Collected.

Mrs. Carrie Brice of Los Angeles evi-
IDENTIFY believes Mayor Schmitz to be a
bureau, of information and collection
agency all rolled into one. That is the
opinion reached by reading a letter
which is a combined communication of
inquiry and f1attery
First of all she wants to know where
a Mr.. Dedge is buried, and it might be
explained that Mrs Brice adheres TO a
system of phonetic spelling that is pc
culiar to herself She explains that
Dedge was shot dead by her side, but
that he carried some insurance in the
East. which ought to be sent to his lit
tie boy.
Dedge lived at Mrs. Brice's residence
545 Stevenson street. and the writer has
no hesitancy in announcing that she
loved him. BY way of further identity
ing herself she explains that she had a
perfume stand at Sixth and Market
streets
Then the letter goes on: MY daugh-
ter Fernie was a telephone operator.
There is $40 wages coming to her.
How shall I get it?"
And to cap the climax she winds UP
with a few words eulogizing the ex-
ecutive, declaring: You managed the
city so well. / hope you will always
be Mayor. This is from one who has
had experience"

ployed by the Standard Electric Com

working on transformer at the time
and missed his footing. In falling he
clutched at a live wire and 1900 volts
of electricity passed through his body.
Physicians were called and they
worked over the electrician for sew
eral hours, but were obliged to give
the case up as hopeless. The Coroner
was notified and took charge of the
remains.
Ed ]. Geary, young man who was
working with Kelly at the time of
the accident, stated that the latter
knew he was working in the vicinity
