SAN PEDRO, June 1S.-At a meet
ing of the board of trustees of the
city held last night 1t was decided to
hold the election for the selection of
fifteen freeholders to frame new
charter for the city on the third day
of August. To this end three polling
places were designated and the cleo
tion officers selected.
1t is expected to have everything in
readiness for the Legislature to pass
upon the new charter as soon as il
meets in January, this being neces-
sary before it can become a law---
The application of the Los Angeles
Interurban Electric line for a fran
chse from Fourteenth street south to
the city limits was acted on favora bly,
by the board, the franchise being
granted. 1t is now expected that the
work on this line to Whites point,
Portuguese bend and on to Redondo
will soon be begun. 1t was projected
last fall and the surveys made, but
when the city added to its confines 1t
brought a certain portion of the pro-
posed line inside the city limits and
a franchise from the board had to be
secured before work could even start
The question of grant came up
at the meeting of the board week
ago, but it was remanded to the com
pany for more specific statements as
to it's desires. This part of it was fixed
up and again offered last night with
the satisfactory result.
The funeral of little Bion Scott, son
of E. B. Scott, who has been until re-
Gently editor of the San Pedro Times,
took place today, the interment being
at Evergreen cemetery, Los Angeles.
| The little boy, three years old, was

But during the chase the hounds must not under any circumstances leave the scent. and often much fun Is had by the fox turning round and passing back close to the path 1t took In going out, thus running so close to the hounds that they could easily catch 1t dared they leave the scent. But the fox must never cross It's own path on the return trip for by so doing the scent would be lost.
 The game Is a test of swiftness versus endurance, some children proving much swifter runners than others but without the endurance to keep up in the chase. If the fox Is one of endurance he can wear out his pursuers by taking them over uneayen and steep hillsides, follow ing zig-zag route that keeps the hounds In constant state of anxiety regarding the scent.
 The starting place Is the goal, and fl the fox escapes being caught and returns to 1t In safety he has \. -n the game over the hounds, the last hound returning to goal being elected to play the fox in the next game, for he is the worst defeated hound and must, therefore, pay the pen alty by being the fox.

 Sometimes the chase will lead over four or five miles, and as the boys and girls become adopts in the art of long-distance running they will enlarge their territory after being able to travel six or seven miles on stretch.
