OCEAN PARK. Sept. 24.-H. T. Reid
of the firm of H. T. Reid & c., doing
a real estate, loan and investment bust
ness in the Helman building, Los An
geles, caused the arrest at the bath
house this afternoon of G. S. Williams
and f. c. King. who claim to be pro-
moters of Nevada mining property on
the charge of obtaining money under
false pretenses. The arrests We're made
by Manager j. L. Smale and Dave Will
son, life guard, as the men were about
to leave the bath house, and while Mr..
Reid, who had accidentally stumbled
across the men as they were bathing
in the plunge, was telephoning for an
officer.
The men submitted to arrest quietly,
and on the arrival of Policeman Lee,
willingly accompanied him to the city
Jail from which they will be taken
to Los Angeles at II o'clock tomorrow
morning for a hearing.
Mr.. Reid. in telling of the circum-
stances leading up to the arrests, said
that the men had come to him recently
with valua bic ore specimens and hao
told him a story of fabulous riches to
be made out of properties which they
controlled. He advanced them consid-
cradle money on the face of their
statements, ne said, and brought them
into contact with other persons. who
furnished them funds. After getting
together adj the cash they could lay
their hands on, Mr., Reid said the men
dropped from view and that it was
quite by chance that he came upon
them today.
The prisoners, however, tell an en-
tirely different story, and when seen
this evening in the little one-room Jail
that serves the city, were not inclined
to take their arrest seriously. King,
who is the younger man of the two
and both are of the type of the well-to-
do miner-said that there was misun-
derstanding somewhere and that the
case would be quashed in court tomor-
row morning.
The men assert that they are promi-
nently identified with mining interests
at Reno and Tonopah. Mr. Reid is said
to have apartments at the Hotel Lille,
2O7 South Hill street, Los Angeles.

PASADENA, Sept. 24.-Gasping for
breath with his lungs crushed under
the weight of an overturned automobile
which 1t took five men to lift from his
form, the first words of Dwight Nc
Bride last evening upon being released
were: My hoodoo nearly got me that
time"
Mcbride is the young man whose pc
culiar misfortunes were told of in The
Herald some weeks ago. After being
burned out In San Francisco he went
to Gardner, Kansas. Last week he
reached Pasadena after having been in
the salt Lake wreck, in which he his
wife and baby nearly lost their lives.
At that time he jokingly talked about
accident cycles running one, two and
three and out, and 1t was very nearly
out for him yesterday.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mcbride and the babv
accepted an offer to go for an auto
ride with Donald Leason, an inexperi-
enced auto driver, yesterday afternoon.
When near the end of the asphalt on
North Marenso avenue Leason volun-
teered to show Mr.. Mcbride how to
reverse the machine, a big electric run
about.
The machine was running ahead at
1alr rate at the time, and when the
PuNeI was suddenly reversed the front
wheels went up in the air and in
tWlnkling the machine had turned tur-
tie. Mrs. Mcbride and the baby fell
out of the machine as it went over.
as did young Leason. none of the three
being more than shaken up. Mr. Nc
Bride was in between the two adults
and he could not get out at ALL
The auto pinned Mr.. Mcbride to the
ground, the back of the seat resting
across his chest, pressing in the left
lung and crushing his left shoulder.
While he was pinioned to the ground
acid from the batteries leaked on his
face.
Fortunately a doctor was going by
at the time, and in a very short while
the man of medicine and four others
righted the machine and lifted Mcbride
to his feet. The doctor quickly rubbed
McBride's face with soda, thus prevent
ing the acid from burning very deeply.
and then Mcbride was hurried to his
temporary home at n Winona avenue
where he is reported as improving this
evening, so that all danger of a fatal
termination of the accident has been
avoided
Mcbride says he will stick to Cali
fornia in spite of his hoodoo. While he
jokes about his i'll luck he is getting to
believe in hoodoo more strongly each
day.

UP men, one short and one tall, walked
boldly into the Harbor Iron works at

night, knocked down G. N. Waite, one
of the proprietors, robbed him of his
money and made their escape.
The hold-up occurred at a late hour,
shortly after Mr.. and Mrs. Waite had
returned to their home nearby from the
residence of a friend. Waite went to
the shop for the purpose of putting a
fire under the boiler. While standing
in the engine room, lamp in hand, he
heard some one call: Hey there!"
Making his way to the front of the
shop he placed the lamp upon chair
and looked about for the owner Of the

near q drill. Just as Waite asked the
man what he wanted. the stranger

blunt instrument. The robber, who was
giant in strength, pinned the iron

ture a short man appeared, and hastily
going through Waite's pockets, found
$13 and his watch. bunch of Keys
and n pocket knife were also taken
IRON the victims pockets, but these
articles were thrown upon the floor.
The robbers then allowed Waite to
rise and forced him to open the front
door of the shop. Looking up and
down Olive avenue and seeing no one
near, they threw Waite back upon the
floor and ran away.
The police were notified, but have
made no arrests.
While securing the neighborhood for

corner and beat a hasty retreat toward
the Third street entrance to the Star
Mill and Lumber company's yards.

without effect. A hat which was found

identified later by a young man, but he
was rot detained by the officers.

of land abutting on this alley for sew

SNAKE PUT IN WATER JUG;
PRANK DRIVES MAN MAD
Special to The Herald.


WATERVILLE, Wash. Sept. "a
Practical jokers in the harvest field on
the ranch of Jacob Andover played a
dangerous prank. A harvester, known
only as pete" a recent arrival from
Germany, had been drinking heavily
and was just recovering from a spree.
one of the other men thought 1t would
be funny to give Pete a little touch of
high life, and proceeded in an original
manner. During the forenoon he caught
harmless snake, procured an empty
water jug, put the snake in it, corked
1t up, and the whole crowd awaited de-
velopments. Soon Pete desired to
ouench his thirst and went for the Jug.
When he removed the cork and had
the jug within a few inches of his
mouth he discovered the squirmng rep
tile trying to escape. This was more
than the overwrought nerves could
stand. With a wild scream he flung
the Jug away and ran yelling at top
speed till lost to view. He has not been
seen by any one ln the vicinity since
and it is feared that he is either lost or
has met his death in the Columbia
river. 1t is reported that search is
being made for traces of him by those
who are responsible for the fiasco, and
that everything possible will be done
to find and bring him back.
